整合与对立——论中西形式主义文论批评方法的差异

Conformity and Opposition——on the differences between the critical methods of Chinese and Western formalist critical theory

作为中国古典文论的特殊样态,中国古代形式主义文论与西方20世纪形式主义文论有诸多相似之处。尽管二者在某些局部问题上存在共通之处,但其差别却是实质性的。批评方法的不同是二者差别的具体体现。中国古代形式主义文论以感性的类推比附为主要言说方式,西方20世纪形式主义文论则以理性的概念推理为主要批评方法。本文在揭示差异的基础上,从社会历史语境分析差异的成因,并从差异中得出关于当代中国文论建设的几点启示。

As a special mode of Chinese classical critical theory,ancient Chinese formalist critical theory shares a number of similarities with 20th century Western formalist critical theory.Despite the similarities,one of the divergences between the two is embodied in their critical methods.The narration of ancient Chinese formalist critical theory relies mainly on sensible analogy,while 20th century Western formalist critical theory resorts more to conception reasoning.The thesis intends to explore the differences between the two,to analyze the cause of the differences from the perspective of social context and,finally,to put forward advices for the construction of current Chinese critical theory.
