文明论视域下梁启超的小说理论与创作实践

A Study on Liang Qichao's Novel Theory and Creative Practice under the Perspective of Civilization Theory

梁启超的"小说界革命"掀开了中国小说史上崭新的一页。他的理论主张与创作实践包含着对于欧西小说的政治想像,体现出一种深在的文明等级观念。梁启超对传统小说的批判及对欧西小说的借镜,充分说明他认同并接受了以西方为中心的知识范式与文明观念。从文明论视角对梁启超的小说界革命理论与创作实践进行探讨,具有重要的反思性意义。这种意义,不仅体现于我们以怎样的视角去回顾过去的小说发展历程,还体现在"四个自信"的文化语境下我们以一种更为自觉的方式建构起中国文学与文化发展的路径。

Liang Qichao’s novel revolution has turned over a new page in Chinese novel history. Liang’s novel theory and creative practice contained the political imagination of western novels,reflected a profound sense of hierarchy of Civilizations. Liang’s concept of novel shows that he accepted the knowledge paradigm and civilization theory of eurocentrism. It is of great reflective significance to explore Liang Qichao’s novel theory and creative practice under the perspective of civilization theory. This not only reflected in how we review the development of the Chinese novel in the past,but also showed how we construct the path of Chinese literature and culture more consciously in＂four self-confidence＂cultural context.
