理论旅行与话语归置:中国当代文论中的后现代主义话语批判

Theoretical Travel and Discourse Collocation: Postmodernist Discourse Criticism in Contemporary Chinese Literary Theories

中国当代文论从20世纪80年代开始接受后现代主义理论,在近40年的理论旅行中,后现代主义在中国当代文论话语中完成了从哲学思想到社会文化再到文艺批评的理论杂糅过程,并以"介绍式""概念式""套用式""运动式"等方式实现了话语归置,最终导致生硬的理论催生、明显的理论研究跨界现象、突出的理论的强制阐释等现象。作为一个非常重要的"拿来理论",后现代主义使当代中国文论充分融入"理论的全球化"过程。但经过了理论旅行、话语应用和知识传播之后,中国的后现代主义文论话语缺乏问题方式与思想表达上的同一性,造成了思想话语空间的混乱、空疏、简单和重复,反映了当代中国文论话语建构的思想板结状态,影响了中国当代文学理论批评深入当代思想文化的肌理机制。

Contemporary Chinese literary theories began to embrace postmodernism in the 1980 s. For almost 40 years of theoretical travel,postmodernism has mixed and mingled with contemporary Chinese literary theories ranging from philosophical ideas to social culture to literary criticism with such channels as＂theory introduction＂,＂concept analysis＂,＂mechanical application＂and ＂criticism campaign＂to realize discourse collocation. Consequently,this leads to rigid new theories,obvious interdisciplinary theoretical research,and protruding obligatory theoretical interpretation. As an important ＂borrowed theory＂,postmodernism has made Chinese literary theories fully merged into ＂theoretical globalization＂. However,following the theoretical travel,discourse application and knowledge transmission,Chinese postmodernist literary theories are beset with the lack of homogeneity between forms of problems and expression of thoughts,causing chaotic,shallow,simplified and repetitive discourse space in expressing thought,reflecting a hardened state of thought in the construction of contemporary Chinese literary theories and constraining the depth of contemporary Chinese literary theories in criticizing the texture and mechanism of contemporary thought and culture.
