“文化散文”的特征及其探源

The Characteristics of "Cultural Prose" and the Exploration of Its Origin

"文化散文"具有重在探寻、弘扬、传承民族主流文化脉胳与内在神光,充满着"我性"的文化对话,注重语言的艺术知性与感性完美融合的鲜明特征和独特的文化视角。其产生可上溯至20世纪20年代,代表作家鲁迅、朱自清、冰心的文化散文表现出对人文精神和人类命运的终极关怀,使散文走出了狭窄的感性空间而具有了旺盛的艺术活力,且润泽着当代文化散文。因此,当前所谓"文化散文"热,其实质是对"五四"精神的呼唤与回归,对功利、虚假、平庸散文的一种检讨与反拨。

＂Cultural Prose＂ focuses on exploring, promoting, and passing the national mainstream culture and internal spirits, filled with cultural dialogues of ＂ego＂, focusing on distinct characteristics and unique cultural perspectives of the perfect fusion of language arts and intellectual and emotional features. Its formation can be traced back to 1920s. Lu Xun＇s, Zhu Ziqing＇s, and Bing Xin＇s cultural proses showed ultimate concern on human spirit and human destiny, which made proses out of the narrow space but full of strong artistic vitality, and had positive influence on contemporary cultural prose. Therefore, the essence of current so--called ＂cultural prose＂ popularity is the call of May 4th spirit and a review and backwash of utilitarian, false, and mediocre proses.
