现代散文体式的建构与解析——散文写作行为论

The Composition and Analysis of Modern Chinese Prose Style:On Behavior of Prose Writing

文体"四分法"在一定程度上误导了对于散文体式特征的认知,现代散文因其公共文体资源相对缺乏,并不能与诗歌、小说及戏剧简单比照罗列。五四散文写作以反叛的姿态拒绝了桐城文章所承载之"物"及言说之"序",从《新青年》到《语丝》,散文体式的创新呈现多个向度,有和颜悦色的絮语漫言,也有尖锐犀利的投枪、匕首,在生命冲动的外化中散文的文体气质被强化了,现代散文体式建构则因此而落实于面对思考它的意识的意义整体的"形式"。散文形式研究无疑需要另辟蹊径,而从写作行为入手也许是进入散文特殊形式空间的一种更为可行的选择。

The categorization of literary styles into four kinds has to some extent misled people in their understanding of modern Chinese prose style.In fact,modern prose has inadequate public style resources,making it unable to be compared and contrasted with poetry,novels and drama.The prose writing during the ＂May Fourth Movement＂ abandoned the ＂elements＂ and the ＂order＂ in Tongcheng prose with a rebellious attitude.From the New Youth magazine to Yusi magazine,the innovation of prose style was manifested in several dimensions,ranging from amiable chats to harsh critiques.The externalization of the impulse of life strengthened the stylistic temperament of prose so that the composition of modern Chinese prose is epitomized in form.For this reason,a new trail needs to be blazed in the stylistic study of prose,and it is a more feasible alternative to proceed from writing behavior to enter the particular formal space of prose.
