中国电影伦理叙事的历史变迁

Historical Changes in the Ethical Narrative of Chinese Films

以伦理为本位的传统文化,使中国电影叙事具有浓郁的伦理色彩与内涵。这种色彩与内涵伴随着剧烈的社会变迁具有明显的阶段性特征:早期的中国电影伦理叙事采取了与社会思潮相调和的策略,以争取经济效益和艺术目标的双赢;新中国成立以后,伦理话语被革命话语所置换,电影叙事成为意识形态的附庸;20世纪80年代以后,电影环境的改变使伦理叙事在自省中重获发展的可能。

With ethics taken as the standard in traditional culture, the Chinese film narrative has had strong ethics indination. This indination has obvious timely characteristics along with violent social changes. The Chinese films in the early days expressed social and ideological trend with ethical stories so as to achieve success economically and artistically. After the founding of the People＇s Republic of China, the ethical discourse in films was replaced by revolutionary discourse and the film narrative was subordinate to politics. Since the 1980＇s, the change of the film environment has made it possible for the Chinese film induslry to recapture and develop the ethical narrative while examining itself.
