【摘要】 叶兆言是中国当代文学界一个颇为独特的存在。他是一个无法被“类化”的异端。一直以来,评论界对叶兆言的研究都是把他放在一个群体中笼统提之,他一度被看作是“先锋小说”、“新写实小说”、“新历史主义小说”、“后现代主义小说”的代表作家之一,而对其独有的意义并未进行深入的研究。笔者同时注意到他在每种思潮中都没有特别突出的表现,在被归类的各种流派中,他的创作都显得有些滞后,似乎永远是一种“追随者”。他的小说没有故意去求新求异,追求的是朴素和平实。这些特点体现在他小说中就是较强的故事性和可读性。虽然他进行了不同形式的艺术探索,尝试小说叙事的各种可能性,寻求叙事艺术的创新,但是始终保持小说“讲故事”这一原始功能。重视故事性,形成了他小说独特的艺术特征。对故事的重视,是作者的自觉追求,也体现了作家对读者的重视。有时过分的重视也使创作产生了局限,导致作品中艺术的精神让位于读者的趣味。本文以叶兆言1997年的创作特征为切入点,结合作家的创作谈和散文,分别从写实和虚构,叙事手法的运用,别样的故事三个方面来谈叶兆言小说的这种艺术特征。第一章从写实和虚构两个方面来谈叶兆言创作的特点,同时也是对他整个创作流程的梳理和探析。第二章谈小说的叙事,着重从叙事视角和叙事结构两个方面入手。第三章谈小说的内容,言情和侦探题材的选择,以及爱和死的主题所体现的深层意蕴。结语部分简单谈创作局限性。更多还原

Sometimes too much attention made his writiing defected, such as the spirit of works give way to the reader’s interest.In the paper, the author try to discuss the artistic features of Ye Zhaoyan’s novels in three aspects -- realism and fabricating, the use of narrative technique, the unique story.
