仿拟的运作机制及其在后现代文化语境中的表现

Working mechanism of parody and its presentations in the postmodern cultural context

认为仿拟的运作机制与人们建构知识体系和意识形态的过程是最为吻合的,因此对其研究不应止于修辞层面。仿拟在运作中标立原型的参照作用,强调对原型的继承与改造,因此代表一种积极的思维倾向。以parody的词源分析为切入点,探究仿拟的运作机制以及仿拟参与文本建构的语用意义,并以此推出仿拟与后现代文化思想的联系及其在后现代文化语境中的表现。

Parody has always been recognized as a figure of speech and its pragmatic function limited to the capability of satire and irony. This paper considers that the formation of a parody goes well with the construction of episteme and ideology. Thus, the study of parody should go beyond the rhetoric scope. The formation of parody needs a model and highlights the modification and the innovation of the original idea. This embodies a positive turn of mind. The paper starts with a lexical analysis of the term parody, and then differentiates parody and mimesis in terms of definition, philosophy and function. Most of all, the study of parody will be extended to the text level, pointing out the pragmatic value of parody in the postmodern cultural context.
