何其芳现象的实质是文艺从属于政治的绝对工具主义,单一性政治文化一旦形成就会对文学观念,文学形态,创作手法,话语思维以及美学原则以及对文学创作规律的违背成为一种常态;单一性政治文化下,政治终能以思想的方式抑制作家的创作主体意识,“思想上进步,艺术上退步”的不平衡现象由此产生。 The essence of He Qifang ’s phenomenon is the absolute instrumentalism in which literature and art are subordinate to politics. Once the political culture of unity is formed, the unity of literary concepts, literary forms, creative techniques, discursive thinking and aesthetic principles as well as the violation of the law of literary creation become normal. Under the political culture of unity, politics can eventually suppress the writer’s creative subject consciousness in the way of thinking, resulting in the imbalance of “ideological progress and artistic retrogression”.
