跨国主义视角下的文学研究——评范德博什和德汉的新著《文学跨国主义》

Literary Studies from the Perspective of Transnationalism:A Review on Literary Transnationalism(s)by Vandebosch and D’haen

达格玛·范德博什和西奥多·德汉主编的《文学跨国主义》重新审视了时下在不同领域受到较多关注的跨国主义概念,并从多个方面探讨了跨国主义视角或方法下文学研究的相关问题。该书研究材料丰富,对文学跨国主义的论述具有不同的切入点,对当下社会、政治的讨论体现了其对现实的观照,传达了跨国主义视角或方法下文学研究的现实意义。与以往有关文学跨国主义书写的著作不同,该书超越了只讨论某一国的文学跨国主义这一模式,并在指出文学跨国主义的意义时有着多重落脚点。对处于跨国实践越发频繁的当今世界这一背景中的文学研究来说,《文学跨国主义》具有重要意义。

Literary Transnationalism(s),co-edited by Dagmar Vandebosch and Theodoor Louis D’haen,reexamines the concept of transnationalism which has attracted fairly considerable attention in different fields so far and explores,on multiple aspects,some relevant issues in literary studies in terms of transnationalism’s viewpoints and approaches.It is a book that offers ample materials for research and different entry points for the deliberation of literary transnationalism.Its discussion of the current society and politics reflects the concerns with realities and reveals the practical significance of conducting literary studies from the perspective of transnationalism or on the basis of its methodology.Unlike the previous works on literary transnationalism,this book goes beyond the model of discussing literary transnationalism within one particular country and builds its claim about the importance of literary transnationalism on several footholds.Literary Transnationalism(s)is of great significance to literary studies in the context of the ever-increasing transnational practices in the world today.
