在小说《边城》中,水不仅是小说创作的背景,而且也是小说情节演绎的标志和主人公孤独落寞的情感体现。水的意象在中国文化传统中源远流长,从原型的角度来看,《边城》中水的这种意象体现既延续了它在传统文化上的原型意义,也负载着作者的精神家园和文学理想。 In the novel “Border Town”, water is not only the background of novel creation, but also the symbol of the deduction of the plot and the lonely feeling of loneliness of the protagonist. The image of water has a long history in the Chinese cultural tradition. From the perspective of the prototype, the image of water in the “Border Town” not only inherits its archetypal meanings in traditional culture, but also lays the author’s spiritual homeland and literary ideal.
