近年来,中华文化“走出去”的影响力不断扩大,在全球文化多元化发展日益兴盛的背景下,中国文化译研网(CCTSS)联合中国作家协会《小说选刊》杂志社,启动“新世纪中国当代作家、作品海外传播数据库”项目,将100位中国当代优秀作家的简介、代表作品以及展示作家风采的短视频翻译为10种语言,集结成1000张中国作家名片向全球推介。千张“作家名片”将鲜明地向世界宣告:我是中国作家,我在进行中国创作。
此种形式和规模是中国故事走向世界的一大创新,会让世界更加全面、客观、公正地了解中国优秀作家作品,同时也是打通中国文化走向世界的“最后一公里”。
范稳,男,1962年11月生于四川,现居昆明。国家一级作家。现任云南省作家协会驻会主持工作的副主席。大学毕业后,范稳到云南地矿局工作,1986年开始发表作品,迄今发表各类题材、体裁的文学作品六百余万字,出版文学作品十六部,含长篇小说、中短篇小说、散文、报告文学等体裁,并被翻译成英、法、意等多种文字。范稳执迷于雪山峡谷和广袤无垠的高原牧场,有多部作品聚焦反映藏民族现实生活及历史文化,如“藏地三部曲”《水乳大地》《悲悯大地》《大地雅歌》,反映滇越铁路的《碧色寨》,以及反映抗战历史的《吾血吾土》《重庆之眼》等。曾获第七、第八、第九届茅盾文学奖提名奖,第八、第十一届“十月文学奖”,第四届《人民文学》长篇小说双年奖等。
1999年的一次滇藏线之行彻底改变了范稳的创作方向,他开始用一个作家的眼光来审视一些在都市的世俗生活从未见识过或者很少思索过的命题:民族和它的历史、文化、宗教、信仰、自然以及它们与人的关系,与人性的关系,与人的命运的关系。北京大学中文系陈晓明教授认为范稳的写作是“用爱来解释生命的价值,用爱来重新讲述藏地的历史和生命经验”;著名评论家李敬泽也评价范稳“是一位对我们国家和民族的历史文化始终怀着热爱、礼敬之心去进行写作的作家”。
《水乳大地》是“藏地三部曲”的开篇之作,以西藏东部边缘地区一个世纪以来的风云变化为背景,塑造了藏传佛教的活佛、纳西东巴教的代表、基督教的传教士、红汉人的干部,还有不惧天地鬼神的康巴汉子等人物形象。小说在宗教和现实交错、多种民族混居、多种文化相互冲撞与融合的氛围里包含着严肃的思考。《悲悯大地》通过澜沧江东西两岸两个家族的恩怨情仇为我们展现了藏族人的真正生存状态。以史诗的笔法表现了善与恶、人与自然、人性与神性等丰富的精神内涵,从而使悲悯的主题呈现出震撼人心的力量,也为我们展现了一幅二十世纪前半叶藏区生活的风情画。《大地雅歌》则力图对藏地文化进行去神秘化,对佛教去神圣化,写出藏地文化及佛教的悲悯情怀,讴歌人性之大爱,救赎之大义,真情之坚贞,信仰之虔诚,浓墨重彩地勾勒出气势磅礴、迷幻空灵的藏地人文历史与风情。
范稳的近作《重庆之眼》是一部以抗日战争时期“重庆大轰炸”为题材的长篇小说,作品以浓郁的爱国主义为底色,生动展现了主人公蔺珮瑶、刘云翔、邓子儒在战争中的苦难经历和旷世爱情,以及“重庆大轰炸”受害者代表对日本右翼势力漠视历史的深刻揭露。

Fan Wen
Fan Wen was born in Sichuan Province in November 1962 and currently lives in Kunming. He is a first rate national author and currently vice chairman of the Yunnan Province Writers Association, permanently stationed there hosting meetings. After graduating from university, Fan Wen worked at the Yunnan Geology and Minerals Bureau and began publishing his writing in 1986. Thus far, he has published more than 6 million Chinese characters in literary works of various themes and genres, and published 16 literary works, including novels, novellas, short stories, essays and reports. These have been translated into English, French, Italian and other languages. Fan Wen is obsessed with snow-capped mountain valleys and vast highland pastures. Several of his works focus on reflecting the Tibetan people’s real lives and historical culture, such as “The Tibetan Trilogy”, The Milky Way, Sorrowful Earth, and The Song of the Land, reflecting “Bixhai Village” on the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway, and works that reflect the history of the War of Resistance against Japan in My Blood and Earth, Chongqing Eye and so on. He has won nominations for the 7th, 8th and 9th Mao Dun Literary Prize, the 8th and the 11th October Literary Award, and the 4th People’s Literature Biennial Award for Novels.
In 1999, a visit to the Yunnan-Tibet rail line completely changed Fan Wen’s creative direction. He began to use a writer’s eyes to examine some of the questions that were never seen or rarely considered in the worldly life of the city: the people and their history, culture, religion, beliefs, nature, and their relationships with other people, their relationships with human nature, and their relationships with human destiny. Prof. Chen Xiaoming of the Chinese Faculty of Peking University believes that Fan Wen’s writing is “using love to explain the value of life and using love to retell the history and life experiences of Tibet”. The famous critic Li Jingze also commented that Fan Wen is “a writer who has always engaged in writing with love and respect towards the history and culture of our country and its people.”
The Milky Way is the first book in the “Tibet Trilogy.” Against the backdrop of the changes occurring at the eastern fringe of Tibet over the course of a century, where the Living Buddha of Tibetan Buddhism, the representative of the Naxi Dongba religion, Christian missionaries, and the cadres of the Red Han people were created, as well as the image of fearless characters such as Kamba, a famous Tibetan. The novel contains serious considerations in an atmosphere where religion and reality are intertwined, ethnic groups are mixed together, and many different cultures clash and mix.
Sorrowful Earth shows us the true living conditions of the Tibetan people through the grudges and enmities of two families on both sides of the Lancang River. The epic poems express the rich spiritual connotations of good and evil, humans and nature, and humanity and divinity, thus making the theme of sadness show amazing power, and also shows us a painting from the Tibetan region in the first half of the 20th century.
The Song of the Land seeks to demystify the Tibetan culture, sanctify Buddhism, with compassionate writing about the Tibetan culture and Buddhism, singing the love of human nature, the great meaning of redemption, the steadfastness of truth, and the devotion of faith, thickly and heavily outlining the magnificent, mysterious and ethereal Tibetan cultural history and customs.
Fan Wen’s recent work, The Eye of Chongqing, is a novel based on the theme of the “Chongqing Bombing” during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. Based on strong patriotism, the work vividly shows the experiences of suffering and love in the world of the protagonists Lin Peiyao, Liu Yunxiang, and Deng Ziru in the war, as well as the exposing of Japanese right-wing forces in their overlooking of history by representatives of the “Chongqing Bombing” victims.
