按照高尔基的说法,文学是人学。我对高尔基这句名言是这样理解的:他不是在提倡人文主义;他是讲,文学作品是写人的,要写出人的性格,不唯形似,而且神似。我们的文学是为人民服务、为社会主义服务的。我认为不但要写人,而且要大量地描写新人,就是说,社会主义文学应该努力塑造社会主义新人的形象。 According to Gorky, literature is human science. My understanding of Gorky’s famous saying is that he is not advocating humanism. He is saying that literary works are written by people, and that human beings should be written in character, not only in shape but also in spirit. Our literature serves the people and serves socialism. I think it is not only necessary to write people, but also to describe a large number of new people, that is, socialist literature should strive to shape the image of new socialist.
