从失语症到西方文艺中心论——也谈当代文论的困境

From Aphasia to Art-centered Theory in Western Society——Also about Dilemma Facing Contemporary Literary Theory

中国文论"失语症"之争,从上世纪九十年代以来一直众说纷纭。学界对"西方文艺中心论"充满焦虑,对本土文化身份有了清晰的认知,但直到现在依然没有寻找到有效的突围路径,在中国古代文论及其现代转化问题以及现当代西方文论及其本土化问题上,并未取得实质性的进展。研究者不得不面临自身知识谱系的局限、中西文化思维模式的差异、以及转化的技术路径的困境等挑战。

There has been a great debate on the ＂aphasia＂ concerning Chinese literary theory since 1990s.The Chinese literary professionals have a clear awareness of the domestic culture and a great anxiety over the ＂art-centered theory in western society＂.However,up to now,no substantial achievements have been made for the effective solution of problems concerning ancient Chinese literary theory and its conversion into modern literary theory,and contemporary Uterary theory in western society and its conversion into contemporary Chinese literary theory.The researchers are greatly challenged by the limitation of the knowledge system,the difference between Chinese and western ways of thinking,and the dilemma facing the conversion.
