死亡这个人类的终极命题,更是文学的永恒主题,一些艺术家超越生死去寻求富有价值的生命意义,并在这个过程中渗进了浓重的死亡意识。本文以张爱玲和简媜这两位中国女作家为例,分析她们死亡意识创作的动因和作品中死亡气息产生的根源。这两位女作家描绘了两幅不同色系的死亡之境,流露她们对死亡与生命的不同思考,展现不同的超越之路,具有诡谲之美,达到了极高的艺术水准。 Death is the ultimate proposition of mankind, which is the eternal theme of literature. Some artists surpass life and death to seek valuable life meaning, and in the process, they have infiltrated the heavy sense of death. Taking two Chinese women writers like Zhang Ailing and Jane Eyre for example, this paper analyzes the motivation of their creation of death consciousness and the causes of the death aura in their works. The two women writers depict the scenes of death in two different colors, revealing their different thoughts on death and life, displaying different ways of transcendence, having the beauty of treacherousness and reaching a high artistic standard.
