阅读:作为一次重新写作——试析罗兰·巴特的文本阅读理论

Reading as Re-Writing: Roland Barthes's Reading Theory

作为一个积极介入政治、对语言与意识形态之间的关系异常敏感的法国知识分子,巴特提倡读者通过阅读来颠覆文本中的资产阶级意识形态。在巴特看来,真正有价值的文本不是封闭的、强加于读者的"可读的文本",而是开放的、引人写作的"可写的文本"。而决定一个文本是"可读的"还是"可写的",关键并不在于文本自身,而在于读者的阅读。由此,巴特提倡"抬头而读"的阅读方式,使读者摆脱受制于作者意识的"消费者"身份,而以"生产者"的姿态将"导引之文"作为"可写的文本"进行创造性的重写。

As French intellectual who actively committed himself to politics,Roland Barthes promoted guiding the readers to deconstruct the capitalist ideology in the text from reading.In Barthes＇ theory,the valuable text is not the legible one which is closed and imposed on the readers,but the scriptable one open to them.The key to determine whether the text is legible or scriptable is not the text itself,but the readers.So Barthes promoted the readers＇ ＂reading with head up＂,that is,instead of being the consumer,the readers should be the producer of the text.
