寻根文学是新时期文学艺术在摒弃现代化追求民族化的一次有意义的尝试。韩少功作为寻根文学的首倡者之一,他从未放弃过自己的“寻根之路”,从《马桥词典》、《暗示》到《山南水北》,虽然他已经放弃了传统小说的叙事方式,但从精神内涵上,他仍然在跋山涉水,在“寻找民族发展和人类生存的迷。” Root - seeking literature is a meaningful attempt to abandon the pursuit of nationalization of literature and art in the new period. As one of the initiators of root-seeking literature, Han Shaogong never gave up his “Root-seeking Path”, from “Maqiao Dictionary” and “Implication” to “Shannan Shuibei”. Although he has given up the narrative way of traditional novels , But from the spiritual connotation, he is still in high places, in the “looking for national development and the fans of human existence.”
