《统万城》是高建群的封笔之作,小说分为主副两线,主线记叙了大夏国国君,统万城的缔造者,堪称一代枭雄的末代匈奴王赫连勃勃叱咤风云的戎马生涯。副线则描述了龟兹高僧鸠摩罗什东渡弘扬佛法的传奇一生。两位英雄,一邪一正,一恶一善,看似没有任何共性和交集;但是本文作者试图通过英雄母题角度来挖掘两位英雄的共性,以及其历史贡献。 “Tongwan City” is a seal made by Gao Jiqun. The novel is divided into two major lines: the main line and the main line. The main line recounts the founder of the Great Xiaguo State Monarchy and the unified Wancheng City. Vice line describes the legendary life of Kucha monk Kumarajiva east to promote Buddhism. The two heroes, one evil and one evil, one evil and one good, do not seem to have any commonality and intersection; however, the author tries to find out the commonalities of the two heroes and their historical contributions from the perspective of heroes.
