生于故乡的莫言与福克纳在精神上与故土永远是血肉相连的,他们或为故乡的贫穷落后而生怨恨之心,或对南方奴隶制、种族主义而产仇视之意;同时,他们一个为故乡人民顽强不屈的生命力大唱赞歌,另一个对家乡人勇敢、自尊的骑士精神产生强烈的认同感。在创作中,他们立足于“邮票般大小”的原乡,恰当地平衡了区域性和共同性的关系,追求表现社会和人生的普遍性和永恒性目标。 Mo Yan and Faulkner, born in their homeland, are spiritually connected with their native land forever. They either feel resentful about the poverty and backwardness of their hometown or are hostile to southern slavery and racism. At the same time, they One praises for the vitality of the hometown people’s tenaciousness and unyielding power, and the other has a strong sense of identity toward the knight spirit of hometown people who are brave and self-respecting. In their work, they are based on the “stamp-sized” hometown, properly balancing regional and commonalities and pursuing the goal of representing the universality and eternity of society and life.
