“文学共同体”何以可能?——朗西埃与南希的“文学共同体”建构之途

How is the“Literary Community”Possible?——The Method of Constructing the“Literary Community”by Rancière and Nancy

无论是朗西埃所谓的“文学共同体”还是南希提出的“文学共通体”(3),都表达了要将文学与某种人类理想的共同存在方式联系起来的意识。这实际上涉及的是文学如何与共同体发生关联,及由此关联能建构出何种形态的共同体等问题。它们构成了朗西埃与南希思考的共同问题域,但由于对“文学的政治性”的不同理解,二人对于上述问题的回答也具有明显的差别。他们理论中的洞见都为进一步思考“文学共同体”的问题提供了可资借鉴之处。

Both the“literary community”by Rancière and the“communautélittéraire”by Nancy express the consciousness of linking literature with the common existence mode of some human ideal.This is actually related to how literature relates to community and what kind of community can be constructed through this association.That constitutes the common problem domain of Rancière and Nancy.However,they have different understanding about“the political of literature”,so they have different answers to the above questions.Their insights in their theories provide references for further thinking about the problem of“literary community”.
