网络穿越小说:当代文化镜像的反讽性文本

Network Time-travel Novels: the Ironical Text of Contemporary Cultural Image

网络穿越小说是最具有网络文学特征的小说类型,它以现实的缺席作为结构文本的潜在性小说要素,主要从两个方面与当代社会构成了反讽关系:一是作品文本层面生活景观的史诗性与戏剧性和当代实存层面的散文化生活景观构成了反讽关系,体现了当代社会的匮乏与欠然状态;二是穿越主人公的高大完美与当代主体性的悲剧性处境构成了反讽性关系,动摇了传统的小说创作理论。这使得网络穿越小说有着潜在的文化建构功能。

Time-travel novels on the Internet are the genre of novels with the most distinct characteristics of network literature. They regard the absence of reality as the potential fictional element of the structural text, and establish the ironical relationship with contemporary society from two aspects. The epic and dramatic features of the life landscape reflected by the text form an irony with the prose-styled life landscape. The perfection of the tall time-travelers form an irony with the tragic plight of the contemporary counterparts. This endows the network time-travel novels with a function of cultural construction.
