近现代转型时期的特殊文体——中国报告文学起源论辨析

The Special Stylistics in Modern Transition: Discrimination on the Origin of Chinese Reportage

作为一种特殊的叙事文体,中国报告文学起源的上限问题一直争论不休。"古已有之"说、近代起源说、五四兴起说、20世纪30年代说是最具代表性的四种观点。结合对四种观点的正误辨析,由此确定中国报告文学源起的历史时域无疑是报告文学理论研究首当其冲需要解决的问题之一。近代特殊的社会环境以及梁启超等人创作上的报告文学特征确证了"近代起源说"的合理合法性。

As a special narrative stylistics, the origin of Chinese reportage has been debated. There are four most representative perspectives. Firstly, it has existed since the ancient times. Secondly, it originated from the modern times. Thirdly, it arose from the May Fourth Movement. Fourthly, it originated in the 1930s. In combination with the right and wrong discrimination of the four perspectives, the establishment of the time domain of the origin of Chinese reportage bears the brunt of the problems to be solved in reportage literary theory research. Modern spe- cial social environment as well as the literary features of the reportage on the creation of Liang Qichao and others undoubtedly confirmed the reasonable legitimacy of modern origin.
