学科演进与观念变迁:重审20世纪80年代中国的世界文学观

Discipline Evolution and Conceptual Change:On the View of World Literature in the 1980s

世界文学观自20世纪80年代在中国的演进既是新时期以来时代文化心理诉求的一种表征,又是中国文学与世界对话过程中产生的问题意识的必然反映。从学术史层面来看,这与比较文学作为一种学科建制和研究范式在中国的设置和发展有着密切关联。它所表征的“世界文学热”也直接影响了21世纪以来我们对世界文学的理解和思考。从比较文学的学科视角出发,联系当今的世界文学理论热潮,聚焦和反思20世纪80年代中国语境中的世界文学观,可以更好地理解世界文学观在当代中国的演进历程及其与世界的对话关系。

The evolution of the view of world literature in the 1980s is not only a representation of the cultural psychological appeal since the new period,but also an inevitable reflection of the problem consciousness generated in the process of dialogue between Chinese literature and the world.From the perspective of academic history,it is closely related to the establishment and development of comparative literature as a disciplinary institution and research paradigm in China.The enthusiasm for world literature it represents has also directly affected our understanding and thinking of world literature since the 21st century.From the disciplinary perspective of comparative literature,this paper studies and reflects on the view of world literature in the context of China in the 1980s,in order to better understand the evolution of the view of world literature in China and its dialogue with the world.
