摘要
本文主要讨论和梳理作为文类的乌托邦、反乌托邦、恶托邦及科幻小说等一系列长期存在争议的文学术语。笔者综合了西方学界的观点,认为当代乌托邦小说可以视为科幻小说的亚类,而反乌托邦、恶托邦等派生概念则是乌托邦文类的分支,其创作取向还会有新的变化。
This paper discusses the most controversial terms of utopian fiction,including utopia, dystopia,anti-utopia and science fiction. The author synthesizes theories and ideas of western scholars, makes a conclusion that modern utopian fiction,as a kind of literature genre is subcategory of science fiction,and all the other terms are derived from utopian writing, though modern utopias keep quite dynamic and changeable.
