当代汉语文学话语生态分析初步

A Preliminary Ecological Analysis of Literary Discourse of Contemporary Chinese

认识并阐释文学作品的意义世界,乃至一个时代或一个地域的文学精神和文学论争,必须首先回到其赖以生长的话语生态中来。话语生态是适于某种文学话语生长的文化条件及其潜在的规定性。20世纪是汉语文学的话语生态从打破平衡走向新的平衡的特殊的文学史期。及至80年代以降,汉语文学的话语生态经过多半个世纪的碰撞、渗透与融合,形成了一个由古典语文、民间语文、公共话语和外来语等多种因素构成的复合形态,大大扩展了汉语文学的意义疆域。话语生态这一概念的提出,旨在提请当代汉语文学的写作、批评和研究者,回到当下的话语生态中来,将各种话语生态因素自觉转化成真正属于自己的个人话语,创造出属于我们这个时代的汉语文学。

Discourse ecology refers to the cultural circumstances and potential conventionality for the growth of a certain literary discourse. For Chinese literary discourse ecology, the 20th century was a special period of time from breaking the balance to regaining a new balance. Since the 1980＇s, the discourse ecology of Chinese literature, through half a century of conflict, permeation and fusion, has taken a complex form of classic Chinese, local dialects, lingua franca and foreign languages, which enormously adds to the semantic domain of Chinese literature. The conception of discourse ecology is presented to appeal to writers, critics and researchers of contemporary Chinese literature to return to the current Chinese discourse ecology so as to self - consciously develop their own individual discourse to contribute to writing Chinese literature of our times.
