今天,是个平常的日子,既不指向某个社团(比如左联)成立,也不是某个作家(比如鲁迅)诞辰。正因为无须应景,我们可以较为深入地讨论一个沉重的话题:“革命”能否“文学”。对于作家来说,是否能够既保留革命的热情与想象力,又创作具有永久魅力的文学作品,这是一个相当严肃的挑战。 Today is an ordinary day, neither pointing to the establishment of a certain association (such as the Leftist Federation) nor to the birth of a writer (such as Lu Xun). Just because there is no need to take advantage of it, we can discuss in more depth a heavy topic: can “revolution” be “literature?” For writers, whether it can preserve the passion and imagination of the revolution and create a literary work with lasting charm is a rather serious challenge.
