对于我们的时代,鲁迅究竟意味着什么?对于当代中国人,特别是对于当代中国青年究竟应该怎样认识鲁迅的伟大?这并不是一个有现成答案的问题。 一 几十年来,我们已经习惯于把鲁迅目为一位伟大的文学家;在学术界和一般知识界中,认为鲁迅研究是中国现代文学的研究领域的看法相当普遍。前不久,一篇贬损鲁迅的文章提出:“鲁迅首先是文学家,然后才是思想家,政治家、伦理学家。” What does Lu Xun really mean for our time? It is not a question of ready answers to contemporary Chinese, especially for the contemporary Chinese youth, how to recognize Lu Xun’s greatness. For decades, we have become accustomed to making Lu Xun a great writer. In both academia and general intellectual circles, it is quite common to think that Lu Xun’s research is a research field in Chinese modern literature. Not long ago, an article derogatory of Lu Xun put forward: “Lu Xun was first a writer, then a thinker, politician, and ethicist.”
