历史记忆与情感流动:舞剧《南京1937》与《记忆深处》叙事策略

Historical Memory and Emotional Flux:Narrative Strategies in Dance Dramas Nanjing 1937 and Deep in Memory

由佟睿睿编创的舞剧《南京1937》和《记忆深处》,均以南京大屠杀为题材,共同承载着历史记忆,抚慰着民族创伤,呼唤着世界和平。以叙事的视角来看,从《南京1937》到《记忆深处》,叙事策略呈现出四个维度的转变:一是叙事主题从强调民族的创伤记忆逐渐转向“公共的”历史认知;二是叙事结构从线性的时间叙事发展到以“意识流”开拓心理空间;三是叙事中的身体表征从以身体语言为主的隐喻言说逐渐转向融合舞台设计的“织体”表达;四是叙事中的情感流动从单一“主体”意识投射到多元的“他者”情感凝聚。通过深入挖掘这两部舞剧在叙事方面的多维异同及内在联系,文章试图提炼出编导佟睿睿在重大历史题材舞剧创作方面的叙事策略,以期为类似题材的舞剧创作提供有效的参考路径。

The dance dramas Nanjing 1937 and Deep in Memory,choreographed by Tong Ruirui,both revolve around the Nanjing Massacre,collectively bearing the weight of historical memory,comforting national wounds,and calling for global peace.From a narrative perspective,the transition from Nanjing 1937 to Deep in Memory reveals four dimensions of narrative strategy evolution:f irst,the narrative theme shifts from emphasizing the trauma of the nation’s memory to gradually focusing on“public”historical awareness;second,the narrative structure progresses from linear time storytelling to exploring psychological space through“stream of consciousness”;third,bodily representation in the narrative transitions from a metaphorical language dominated by body movements to a fusion of stage design in an expressive“fabric”;fourth,emotional dynamics in the narrative evolve from a singular“subject”consciousness projection to the convergence of diverse emotions from“others”.By delving into the multidimensional similarities,differences,and inherent connections in the narrative aspects of these two dance dramas,this paper aims to distill choreographer Tong Ruirui’s narrative strategies in creating dance dramas on signif icant historical themes,with the hope of providing effective reference paths for similar genre creations.
