唤醒人性、回归生活：戏剧批评的当代使命

Coming Back to Life via Reviving Humanity:Analysis on Contemporary Mission of Theatre Criticism

在如今科学飞速发展的时代,人们的价值基础开始产生变化,极端理性主义即犬儒主义的滋生和蔓延,使整个人类社会进入一种混沌状态,我们所处的时代成为一个失焦的混乱时代。如何处理梦想、犬儒主义与人性的关系,已经成为现代人需要思考的新问题。道德现实主义是解决当下人类问题的首要选择,戏剧批评必须以此为导向,才能重新唤醒人性,使世界回到正轨。然而,戏剧批评往往会陷入框架式的理论局限中,即对戏剧以及戏剧制作人进行严格的学术界定,完全脱离了戏剧的生活性,使戏剧批评成为小众式的理论探讨,无法唤起观众与戏剧批评家之间的共鸣。戏剧批评需要寻找新的方向,即通过形象的描述性论述,采用通俗易懂的词汇,赋予文本以生活性,将戏剧语言转化为生活语言。

With the rapid development of science and technology,the value base of human beings has been changed. The extremes of rationalism,which is the breeding and spreading of cynicism,make the society of human beings fall into chaos. The time is out of focus. Therefore,how to deal with the relationship among dreams,cynicism and human nature has become the new issue that modern people should think about. Moral realism is the best way to solve this issue,and only when theatre criticism puts this as the orientation can critics wake up the human nature and set the world right. However,theatre criticism is usually based on the constricting theories,which is to make strict academic definitions for dramas and theatre-makers,completely being away from the real life. As a result,theatre criticism becomes a theoretical discussion among the minority,which fails to cultivate empathy between audience and critics. Theater criticism should find a new way,which is to transfer theatre language into daily language by making the text vivid through descriptive language and easy vocabulary.
