从玄幻想象到现实观照:网络文学的审美转向

From Mysterious Fantasy to Realistic Ideology: the Aesthetic Turn of Network Literature

网络文学从热门的玄幻想象转变为现实观照,是网络文学的一次审美转向。这个转向具有三个现象表征:一是从追求个人主义到建构集体经验,二是从审美单向度到审美多元化,三是从片面历史观到辩证历史观。这个转向的发生与作家审美意识的转变、读者审美经验的丰沛、社会科学技术的发展息息相关。无论是从网络文学对人的影响层面来看,还是从网络文学对社会的影响层面来看,抑或是从网络文学本身的发展层面来看,这一次审美转向都具有不可忽视的重要意义。网络文学中的现实观照类作品不仅能使人认识真实的自我,更能记录并影响一个时代。对于网络文学本身的发展来说,现实题材作品也可承担起继承文学的民族传统形式的责任,推动网络文学的精品化与经典化。

Network literature has changed from popular fantasy to reality. This is an aesthetic turn of network literature. Three phenomena symbolize the turning point, including turning from the pursuit of individualism to the construction of collective experience, from aesthetic one-way to aesthetic pluralism, from one-sided historical view to dialectical historical view. The occurrence of this turn is closely related to the transformation of the writer′s aesthetic consciousness, the rich experience of the reader′s aesthetic activity, and the development of social science and technology. Whether it is from the perspective of the impact of network literature on people, the impact of network literature on society, or the development level of network literature itself, this aesthetic turn has a meaning that cannot be ignored. The reality-related works in network literature not only enable people to know the true self, but also record and influence an era. For the development of network literature itself, realistic works can also assume the responsibility of inheriting the traditional form of the nation, and promote the refinement and classicalization of network literature.
