试论中国历史题材电视剧的“当代性”

Research on the “Contemporaneity” of Chinese Historical Teleplays

近年来,中国历史题材电视剧在借古喻今的同时不断追求"当代性"的审美品格,这种关乎当今时代社会发展现实的问题立场和叙事方式引发了当代人的审美反思与接受。中国历史题材电视剧的"当代性"主要体现为:在思想内容上影射社会现实问题,以当代价值观念为导向,满足当代受众审美诉求;在叙事艺术上以多视角、亦正亦娱的方式呈现,语言上既保留特定年代文风又贴近现代用语习惯;在人物塑造上实现从"二元对立"模式到多样性的转变,突出女性在历史发展中的潜在动力,表现中华民族传统文化的优良品格和美学精神。

In recent years,when Chinese historical teleplays using anecdotes of the past to allude to the present,they persue the aesthetic quality of ＂contemporaneity＂continuously. This kind of realistic way of concerning has led to contemporary people＇s aesthetic reflection. ＂Contemporaneity＂in historical teleplays is reflected in the following aspects： in the ideological content of reality,it meets the aesthetic demands of audience and oriented by the contemporary values; in the narrative art,it depicts from multi- angles,and it not only remains the special language＇s style but also is close to modern idoms in the aspect of language; in characterization,it transforms from＂binary opposition＂to the diversity of characterization,highlighting the potential power of women in the develpoment of Chinese history,and embodies the good qualities in Chinese tradition.
