摘要: 莫言的《蛙》是一部当代中国文学杰作,作者以魔幻现实主义手法揭示了围绕计划生育展开的中国乡村现实画卷。作品以蛙—娃—娲为主线,入木三分地刻画出一群原创人物的可歌可泣的命运,感人至深,催人泪下,发人深省。通过从以身体部位或特征入名的主要角色的塑造、异国风光人物与本地乡土的有机结合、人类的象征“蛙”的魔幻神奇这三个最能体现魔幻手法的视角着手,对作品中人物、情节和情境的构建进行分析探讨,揭示了神话原型在现实主义作品中的永恒魅力。

Abstract: Mo Yan’s“Frog”is a masterpiece of contemporary Chinese literature, which integrates hallucinatory realism into the reality of rural China revolving around the implementation of family planning policy. With the main line of frog-infant╞the goddess Wa, the work portrays vividly a group of original characters, whose fate is moving, touching and thought-provoking. From the three perspectives that best reveal the author’s technique, i.e. the creation of the major characters named after their body parts or features, the organic combination of exotic characters and scenery with the local native land, and the hallucinatory magic of frog as the symbol of human being, this paper analyzes and explores the construction of the characters, plots and settings in the work, so as to reveal the everlasting charm of mythological archetypes in realistic works.

Key words: hallucinatory realism; mythological archetype; frog
