少数民族文学研究“边缘化”另种理解

Understanding from other Perspectives:the Marginalization of the Research on Ethnic Minority Literature

国内学界多年来有种看法:中国文学史书写中,中国少数民族文学研究始终处于"边缘化"状态,而且还很严重。提倡各民族文学多元共生无疑必要,但多元共生涉及很多复杂因素,也并不意味着"平分秋色"。因之对"边缘化"问题应该综合把握,多些客观审视,防止以偏概全,避免理想代替现实的情绪化。由此要注意三个问题:历史状况的全局衡量;文学史书写与文学客观状况;文学史书写的经典化情况。

For many years a perception has always been prevalent among the domestic academia that the research on ethnic minority literature has been in a situation of serious marginalization when writing the history of Chinese literature. It is undoubtedly necessary to advocate the pluralistic coexistence for the diverse ethnic literature, but the pluralistic coexistence does not refer to ＂an equal split＂ for it is related to many complicated factors. Therefore, the marginalization issue should be considered from a comprehensive and objective perspective to avoid any emotional and irrational views which prefer ideal to reality. Three factors should be noticed： an overall consideration of the historical conditions, writing the history of literature and the objective situation of literature, the case of canonization in writing the history of literature.
