摘要
20世纪初,《新小说》与《月月小说》上刊登了梁启超与包天笑的同名短篇小说《世界末日记》。勿庸置疑,它们都是传授先进的天文学知识的科学小说。然而,新世纪伊始,"世界末日"的登场似乎有违时代潮流之嫌。通过对英文原作、日译本、中译本、中文创作版的异同比较,从清末的"科学"与"科学小说"、"世界末日"与"世纪末思潮"、中国关于"世纪末思潮"的接受等方面进行探讨,不难发现《世界末日记》中看似矛盾的"科学"和"世界末日"、"世纪末",实际上蕴含了从旧传统向新社会蜕变的深刻意味。
At the beginning of the 20th century which was the transition time of China,two homonym short fictions named'The last days of the Earth'by Liang Qicao and Bao Tianxiao were published in New Fiction and Monthly Fiction.Doubtlessly, they were scientific fictions spreading advanced astronomy knowledge.However,at the beginning of a new century,'the last days of the Earth'seemed unsuitable for the trend.By comparative study of similarities and differences of the English fiction,Japanese translation version,Chinese translation version and Chinese creation version,and from perspectives of'science'in the late Qing and'scientific fictions','the last days of the Earth'and'thoughts of the end of the world',the acceptance of'thoughts of the end of the world'in China,the essay argues that'science','the last days of the earth'and'the end of the world'which seemed contradictory in two fictions,actually included the deep significance of transformation from the old tradition to a new society.
