史诗阙如与文化垄断

The Epic Absence and Culture Monoply

汉民族虽然不乏作为史诗基础的早期叙史歌谣,但却没有发育出典型的民族史诗。究其原因,关键在于官方文化垄断使叙史歌谣丧失了其赖以生存和发展的民间自由说唱这一文化环境。而文化垄断背景下的叙史散文化倾向,更使得叙史歌谣离史诗的距离越来越远。于是,作为文化垄断的直接后果,史诗最终与华夏文学无缘。

Chinese nation doesn't lack the original history-saying ballad which may turn into typical national epic,but it doesn't grow into typical national epic.The most important reason of this phenomenon is that the official-rigged culture makes history-saying ballad forfeit its cultural environment,the folk singing,in which it has always lived.In the culture-rigged environment,the prose turn of the history mention makes history-saying ballad turn to be far away from epic.Thus,the direct consequence of rigged culture is the absence of epic in Chinese literature .
