文学伦理学批评的新局面和生命力——“第三届文学伦理学批评国际学术研讨会”综述

Ethical Literary Criticism: Its Openness, Inclusiveness and Vitality

在当今世界文学既无新的创作流派又无新的理论流派的情况下,世界文学呈现出"伦理转向"局面,中国的文学伦理学批评理论与实践发展尤为迅速,已成为国家重大理论关切。众多批评家意识到,文学应该关注伦理道德,文学批评者应该担负社会责任。"第三届文学伦理学批评国际学术研讨会"上,中外学者的讨论证明,文学伦理学批评自身的开放性和包容性使得它能够与其他批评理论有机结合,从而开创出新的局面并获得旺盛的生命力。

Without any more bustle of new genres or theories in the world literature and literary criticism in the first two decades of the 21 st century, the world of literature assumes a tendency of ＂ethical turn＂, specifically found in China, where ethical literary criticism has now become a major national theoretical program. Many critics have come to the high awareness of their social responsibility and the necessity of ethical concerns in literary works. The openness and inclusiveness of ethical literary criticism, which find expression in the plenary and panel discussions on the 3rd International Symposium on Ethical Literary Criticism, make it possible to integrate its preoccupations with other critical theories, hence showing a new dimension and a vigorous vitality.
