二十世纪八十年代的“现代派文学”

The “Modernist Literature” of 1980s

“现代派文学”是一种在20世纪80年代“探索”、“断裂”、“多元”的文学意识形态中被解释的现象。站在90年代的知识立场,80年代“现代派文学”的这种自我想象、规划和形塑的建构企图浮出历史地表,它对现实主义、文学传统叛逆式的解读,其实际蕴涵远比当时的理解更多和更复杂。在西方文学史知识谱系中所产生、所认定的“文学经典”,当然也带有用来取代50至70年代红色“文学经典”的历史目的。但是,“现代派文学”对“当代文学”的反叛,是否将意味着另一个当代文学的诞生?

“Modernist Literature” is a phenomenon explained in the literary ideology of “exploration”, “disjuncture”, and “multiplicity” of the 1980s. From the intellectual point of view of the 1990s, the “Modernist Literature” of the 1980s looms out with its self-imagination, projects and aspirations of form constructions. It connotes much more significance and more complicated ideas than the understanding of it at the time of its rebellious reading of realism and literary tradition. It is derived from the intellectual genealogy of Western literary history and established canons, and therefore carries with it a sort of historical purpose of taking the place of the red “literary canons” of the 1950s and 1970s. Does the rebellion of “Modernist Literature” against “contemporary literature” mean the birth of a different kind of literature?
