后原初性:认同的再造和想象的重组——反思1997—2007香港电影的“中国脉络”

The Post-Original: Reconstructing Identity and Imagination——A Reflection on the "Chinese Vein" of Hong Kong Cinema Between 1997 and 2007

香港回归既是中国历史上的重大事件,也是对于香港的文化和社会形态产生巨大影响的历史事件。本文通过对于香港电影的读解和思考,研究在香港电影中"中国脉络"的转变和发展,指出伴随着中国内地高速的经济成长和全球化的进程,香港的文化想象在变化和认同中不断再造。点明一种新的"香港"身份和"中国"身份认同的新的"接合",正是当下香港电影的"中国脉络"展开的路径,由此提出本文试图阐发的后"九七"香港电影的关键概念——"后原初性"。

Hong Kong’s return is not only an important event in the history of China, but it also has great impacts on Hong Kong’s culture and social formation. On the basis of reading and reflecting on Hong Kong cinema, the paper examines how the 'Chinese Vein' shifts and develops in Hong Kong films, focusing on the changes in Hong Kong’s cultural imagination and the reconstruction of its identity that accompany the rapid economic growth and globalization in China's Mainland. The paper holds that the new direction for the 'Chinese vein' in Hong Kong cinema is to 'combine' the 'Hong Kong' identity with the 'Chinese'. Hence the key concept in delineating Hong Kong cinema since '97: 'the post-original'.
