《北京折叠》:科技元素与文学传达的互动互融

Folding Beijing:The Interplay of Tech Elements and Literature Delivery

随着科学技术的突飞猛进、日新月异,科幻文学中对未来世界的把握与描绘,已不仅仅局限于在物理学、天文学和自然科学层面上的奇思妙想,还更多地触及到哲学、社会科学层面的对未来的忧虑和期许。2016年雨果奖获奖作品《北京折叠》为我们展开了一幅未来北京的奇幻画卷,作者郝景芳没有像多数科幻作者那样极力铺陈未来科技的炫酷恢弘,而是通过轻柔的笔触勾勒出一个可以折叠时空的北京状貌,在那里,人们被高科技的折叠技术塞进了不同的空间之内,阶层分化、思维固化、交流阻滞,科技发展带来的双刃效果,凸显着对社会现实的关注与深思。

With the advance of science and technology,the grasp and description of the future world in the science fictions are notonly limited to the imagination of physics, astronomy, and natural sciences, but also touched on the concerns and expectations of socialsciences and philosophy in the future. Folding Beijing, which has won the Hugo award 2016, unfolds a picture of the future in Beijing.The writer Hao Jingfang didn爷t make a great effort to spread the cool of the future technology as most science-fiction writers, she gavea form of Beijing which can be folded into space and time with a gentle strokes. There, people are crammed into different spaces byfolding technology. Extreme social stratification,thought solidification commuication block,these double-edged effects of technologicaldevelopment are highlighted in the interplay of technology and literature.摇 摇
