马来西亚华文文学的家园意识与文学流变——第三届马华文学国际学术研讨会综述

Homeland Consciousness and Literary Evolvement:A Summary of the 3rd International Conference on Malaysian Chinese Literature

华文文学乃马来西亚华人文化的重要组成部分。华文作家身负民族使命感,以文学方式记载华人在当地的拓荒史。马华文学一直在文化来源国和所在国之间、在中国化与本土化之间摇摆、拉锯。以＂家园意识和文学流变＂为主题的第三届马华文学研讨会,在中国大陆的外国文学研究者的参与下,将马华文学置于世界文学的平台加以考量,重视其独立的主体性和多元文化的内涵,重新为之定位。这将有助于马华文学走向国际,受到国际学术界的更多关注,同时也有助于提高马华文学评论的质量。

Malaysian Chinese Literature has become a significant part of Malaysian Chinese culture. The Chinese-language writers feel responsible for maintaining the ethnic consciousness and recording the history of Chinese pioneers in the region. Finding themselves between the identities of their original and new nations,the Malaysian Chinese authors are vacillating between sinicization and nativization. The conference,whose theme was set as ＂Homeland Consciousness and Literary Evolvement＂ ,was attended by foreign and local scholars. They treated Malaysian Chinese literature as part of world literature and emphasized both its uniqueness and multicultural content,reassessing its global standing. This will contribute to the internationalization of Malaysian Chinese Literature and its further study abroad,as well as to the rise in quality of criticism of Malaysian Chinese Literature.
