“世界之轴”:诺斯洛普·弗莱文学史批评体系的中心原型

“Axis Mundi”:The Central Archetype of Northrop Frye's Literary History Criticism

"世界之轴"的基本认识原型在弗莱的文学史批评体系中占据核心地位。这种认识模式强调在某个领域中的核心概念,根据时代的发展和人们心理需求的变化,其内涵不断进行着置换性的调整,概念内涵的置换呈螺旋式上升的趋势。弗莱深刻地把握了"世界之轴"认识原型的要义。虽然弗莱的文学史模式也存在着他一直为人诟病的一些缺点,但它对当前文学研究的价值和启示不容忽视。

The basic cognitive archetype of 'Axis Mundi'occupies the central position in Frye's theory of liferary history.This cognitive model emphasizes that the central concept in a certain field goes through constant adjustment in its connotation in the form of displacement.Frye has a deep grasp of the substance of the cognitive archetype of'Axis Mundi'.Although his model of literary history has some weak points,its value and inspiration for current literary study cannot be ignored.
