《小世界》的后现代奇观文化解读

Post-modern Spectacle Cultural Analysis of Small World

在后现代消费语境中,形象和视觉消费充斥着人们的生活,视觉文化已成为后现代文化中的一种主流形式。一方面,各种视觉产品充斥、刺激着人们的视野,带给人们各种"震惊"般的视觉体验;另一方面,各种视觉形象不断地异化主体,进而形成了一种具有权力感的文化因素。以当代的视觉文化为切入点,结合后现代文化中的视觉奇观理论分析《小世界》文本中的场面奇观和身体奇观,赋予文本以新的文化蕴涵。

In the context of post-modern consumption, images and visual consumption filled with people＇s lives and visual culture has become a mainstream form of post-modern culture. On one hand, people＇s vi- sion is filled with a variety of visual products and shocked by the distinct visual experience; on the other, diverse visual images alienate the subject, forming the powerful cultural element. Based on the visual cul- ture and the combination of the post-modern theory of visual spectacle, this paper analyzes the novel of Small World from the aspects of scene spectacle and body spectacle, which will enrich the text with a new cultural implication.
