从“审美文化研究”到“文化研究”:当代中国文论“文化”维度的敞现

From "Aesthetic Culture Studies" to "Cultural Studies":The Revelation of Culture Dimension in Contemporary Literary Theory

从当代中国文论的发展历程来看,文化研究的兴盛是当代中国文论的“文化”之维逐步敞现的结果。这一维度是经由“审美文化研究”、“人文精神”大讨论中的大众文化论争、“文化诗学”,到“文化研究”而次第展开的。当文化研究将当代中国文论的“文化”之维推向顶点时,它也构成了对文论研究的严重挑战。要克服因“文化转向”而导致的“失范”,当代文论研究应该重新审视“审美性”问题。

The proliferation of cultural studies can be attributed to the revelation of the culture dimension in contemporary literary theories from the long-term trajectory,which includes the discussion on mass culturein the stages of“aesthetic culture studies”,“debate on humane spirits”,“cultural poetics”and“cultural studies”gradually.It has caused a serious challenge toward literary theories when the dimension of“culture”has been pushed to the highest point.It is high time to reconsider“aesthetic qualities”in contemporary literary theory as a rectification of the“anomaly”brought about by the“cultural turn”.
