马修·阿诺德与“文化与无政府状态”理论

Matthew Arnold and Theory of “Culture and Anarchy”

马修·阿诺德是英国新左派和英国文化研究的"先驱"。"传统文化"是他思想中的核心内容。"文化与无政府状态"理论内核价值丰富。他认为严肃文化的守护只有"文化与无政府状态"中的"剩余民"或"有机知识分子"才能担当,这是"文化霸权"的时刻,这开启了他对"大众文化"正面的认知,对英国文化研究和英国文化马克思主义做出了杰出的贡献。

Matthew Arnold is the forefather of British New Left and British Cultural Studies. “Traditional culture” is the core of his thought. Theoretical value of “Culture and Anarchy” is full of richness. Arnold thinks that the “remnant” or “organic intellectual” of “Culture and Anarchy ” only takes the responsibility of guarding serious culture, that is the moment of “cultural hegemony”, which takes a positive understanding towards “popular culture”, and which makes a great contribution to British Cultural Studies and British Cultural Marxism.
