《彷徨》是鲁迅的一部短篇小说结集,收录了鲁迅在1924至1925年间所创作的短篇小说11篇:《祝福》《在酒楼上》《幸福的家庭》《肥皂》《长明灯》《示众》《高老夫子》《孤独者》《伤逝》《弟兄》《离婚》。其中的《祝福》与《离婚》等篇揭露了旧礼教对农村女性从精神到肉体的压迫;《在酒楼上》与《孤独者》等篇,则深刻地诠释了身陷“无物之阵”的曾经先进的中年知识人的困厄。整部小说集用淋漓的笔锋勾勒出一个个极具典型意义的人物形象,贯穿着对当时生活在封建势力重压下的农民及知识分子“哀其不幸,怒其不争”的关怀,深刻反映了一个时代的彷徨。 This collection comprehensively introduces the mentality and behavior of Chinese citizens at all levels in the first ten years of the 20 century: peasants, lawyers, opponents and supporters of the Republican Revolution, and most importantly, women, whether they have knowledge or not, are suffering from all kinds of oppression from a society still entangled with imperial traditions.
