无“体”之体:论90年代以来长篇小说文体探索新趋向

A Stylistic Style without "Style":On the New Trend of Exploration of Novel Style Since the 1990s

中国长篇小说历经数百年的演变,各种形式的文体探索由来已久,但真正出现打破主导文类规范,形成无"体"之体的写作现象则始自20世纪90年代。纵向窥视20世纪90年代以来长篇小说无"体"之体书写状况,其大致呈现出诸如看似不像小说,实则是小说;或看似像小说,实则又不像,在像与不像之间摇摆;或看似不像,实则也难算作小说等镜像,从文类发展的内部自足性、中西文学资源的文体渗透、创作主体的文体意识与自觉追求、时代语境下的审美接受等方面探究镜像成因,并对其发展的可能性维度做出评判,这对于作家的文体探索、读者的文体接受以及学界的文体研究皆为一次有意义的跋涉。

Chinese novels have evolved over hundreds of years and various forms of stylistic exploration have a long history,but there is a real break in the leading genre specification to form the writing phenomenon of a stylistic style without ＂style＂ since the 1990 s.A longitudinal peek at the writing of the novel without ＂style＂ presents the mirror image.It doesn＇t look like a novel,but it＇s a novel;or it looks like a novel,but it is not a novel,swinging between the two;or it doesn＇t look like a novel,but it＇s hard to be regarded as a novel.Exploring the causes of the mirror image from the internal self-sufficiency of the development of the category of literature,the stylistic infiltration of Chinese and Western literature resources,stylistic consciousness and conscious pursuit of the creative subject,aesthetic acceptance in the context of the times make a judgement on the possibility dimension of its development.This is a meaningful trek to the writer＇s stylistic exploration,the reader＇s stylistic acceptance,the stylistic study of the academic circles and author＇s unconscious art pursuit and limitations of the art.
