Western Theory and Chinese Expression:On the Alienation and Absorption of Chinese Original Picture Books to Postmodernism

二十世纪后半叶,儿童图画书受到后现代主义思潮的影响,开启了后现代图画书的新时代。相比而言,中国原创图画书的发展进程有其特殊性,很少有典型的"原创后现代图画书"出现。然而原创图画书与后现代主义之间并非毫无关系,恰恰相反,原创图画书的现有成就与后现代思潮之间有着紧密的联系;而从全世界范围内的情况来看,原创图画书的未来发展也将与后现代思潮密不可分。本文着力探讨中国原创图画书与后现代主义之间的关系,分析原创图画书疏离于后现代主义的原因,以及原创图画书开始与后现代主义互动,演绎并吸纳后现代主义的可能性。并指出,原创图画书需要,也能够借助后现代主义文艺思潮来提升创作水准,发扬并拓展中国特色的民族文化和儿童文化。

In the second half of the 20 th century, children’s picture books were influenced by postmodernism, which opened a new era of postmodern picture books. In contrast, the development process of Chinese original picture books has its particularity with few typical"original postmodern picture books"appear. However, the relationship between the original picture books and postmodernism is not completely unrelated. On the contrary, the existing achievements of the original picture books are closely related to the trend of postmodernism. According to the situation around the world, the future development of the original picture books will also be closely related to postmodernism. Focusing on the relationship between Chinese original picture books and postmodernism, this paper analyzes the reasons why the original picture books are alienated from postmodernism, and the possibility that the original picture books start to interact with,deduce and absorb postmodernism. It also pointed out that the original picture books can improve the level of creation and develop the Chinese national culture and children’s culture with Chinese characteristics under the influence of postmodernism.
