当代性乡土书写：《中原》中的隐性历史叙述
Contemporary Vernacular Writing: Recessive Historical Narration in the Novel “The Central Plains”

阎连科脱离宏大叙事，始于《心经》，而继女性与宗教话语书写之后，阎连科的《中原》又复乡村书写，描述一个农村家庭复杂冷漠生硬的感情纠葛。父子、夫妻、母子关系的母题在他笔下浓缩到一个当代的普通农村家庭中，并发生异变，承载那个时代那个社会的关系与情感。但其中隐含的历史因素与历史叙述不可忽视。其是当下的故事，中原的故事，也是世界的故事。阎连科在《中原》中摆脱宏大历史叙事构建当下乡村情境，是对于自身写作困境或局限的反思与跨越，是一种新尝试，也是新的当下乡村叙述模式。
Yan Lianke broke away from the grand narrative and started with the Heart Classic. After writing the discourse on women and religion, Yan Lianke’s Central Plains was again written in the countryside, describing the complex, cold and stiff emotional entanglements of a rural family. In his works, the motif of the relationship between father and son, husband and wife, and mother and son is condensed into a contemporary ordinary rural family, and changes, carrying the relationship and emotion of that era and society. But the implied historical factors and historical narration cannot be ignored. It is the story of the present, the story of the Central Plains, and the story of the world. Yan Lianke’s construction of the current rural situation by getting rid of the grand historical narrative in Central Plains is a reflection and leap over his own writing predicament or limitation, a new attempt and a new current rural narrative mode.
