报刊体制与中国当代文学的发生

The System of the Press and the Emergence of Chinese Contemporary Literature

报刊体制介入中国当代文学(1949—1976)发生、发展的方式,目前学界尚无有力研究。而事实上,它在三个大略递进的层面上深深地影响了当代文学的存在状态:先是报刊社会主义所有制将新/旧文学、左/右文学之间相互冲突、相互妥协的格局逆转为"新的人民的文艺"一统文坛的失衡状态,然而报刊"代理人困境"的存在又使当代文学"一体化"的内部充斥着不同话语成分和文学利益的竞争,但派系主义报刊运作规则对意识形态模式的"喜好"最终使这些内部竞争消失于无形。当代文学由此呈现为逐渐板结、衰落的过程。

The way the system of the press intervenes in the emergence and development of Chinese contemporary literature(1949-1976) requires convincing research from the academic circle. In fact,the system of the press affects the existence of contemporary literature in the three progressive aspects. Initially,the socialist ownership of the press turns the old-new and leftright dichotomies into the imbalanced state dominated by'the literature for the new people. 'Then,the agency dilemma of the press leads to the competition between the different literary discourses and interests in the internal integration of contemporary literature. Finally,the operation principles of the sectionalist press system favor the modes of mainstream ideology and nullify the internal competitions. These effects eventually accumulate and lead to the gradual fossilization and decline of contemporary literature.
