论现代主义文学

On Modernistic Literature

现代主义文学产生的根源有:社会历史;思想理论;文学自身的发展。它的基本特征是:中心内容表现社会危机和人的异化;创作精神主张表现主观现实和内心世界,是表现论而非反映论。它最主要的流派是象征主义文学和未来主义文学。现代主义文学有一定的认识价值;在艺术表现上有一定的借鉴作用,同时也存在局限性。

Modernistic literature originates in social history, ideological theory and the development of literature itself. Its essential characteristics are the use of central contents to express social crises and the dissimilitude of human beings, and the use of the theory of expression, not the one of reflection, which is advocated by creative spirits, to express subjectivity and man＇ s inner world. There are two major schools in modernistic literature, literature of symbolism and literature of futurism. It has certain value in understanding, and certain use for reference in art expression in spite of its limitation.
