论张爱玲的存在意识

特殊的身世遭际和三四十年代的社会背景赋予了张爱玲产生存在思想的土壤,张爱玲以个体的“人” 为切入点,描绘了处于生存困境中的人的焦虑、畏惧和异化,以及被抛入荒诞世界中的人往往用自欺来逃避生存焦虑的现象,表达了她对人类生存意义的关注,这是张爱玲存在意识的体现。对文明的批判,张爱玲也表现出存在色彩,存在意识使她的作品提升到了哲学的高度。

With the individual "human being" set as a starting point, Chang expressed her greatconcern for the significance of living by depicting the anxiety, awe and alienation of people who were involved in existencedistress, and also how those people deserted into an absurd world would turn to self - deception to escape from existenceanxiety, which is just a reflection of her existential thinking. At the end of this thesis, an existential color in chang's criticson civilization is pointed out. It is the existential consciousness that upgrades her works to a philosophical level.
