论莱斯利·菲德勒后现代主义文学观的通俗化特征

美国后现代文学批评先驱莱斯利·菲德勒认为,通俗化是后现代主义文学的重要特征,此类文学摆脱现代主义＂纯艺术＂观念,提供娱乐也表达政治立场,跨越雅俗边界为精英和大众读者带来＂迷醉＂感受,帮助他们在后现代时期获得个体精神慰藉。基于这一分析,他提出关注＂迷醉＂的通俗化文学批评主张。菲德勒率先使用＂后现代主义文学＂一词并描绘其清晰轮廓,对文学通俗化的相关问题做出独树一帜的论述,启示我们应重新思考受到忽视的后现代主义文学特征,以及通俗文学在当今时代的意义。

According to Leslie Fiedler＇s view, pop-inclination forms a key feature of postmodernist literary works which provide entertainment and express political stands. They close the gap between high and low arts and bring readers ecstastic experiences for their spiritual solace in contemporary age. On such basis he proposes ecstasis-focusing criticism. Fiedler＇s remarkable elaboration on pop-inclination reminds us of the neglected feature of postmodemist literature.
