活动影像对原初交流体验的救赎——卢卡奇早期电影理论研究

The Redemption of the Primary Communication Experience with Moving Images:A Study on Lukács’s Early Film Theory

文章尝试阐释奇奥格·卢卡奇(Georg Lukács)的早期电影理论书写,尤其是卢卡奇写于1913年的电影散论《有关电影美学的思考》(‘Thoughts Towards an Aesthetic of the Cinema’,a.k.a.‘Gedanken zu einer sthetic des Kino’)。在1895-1918年德国早期电影语境中,一些文艺评论家认为电影作为媒介的独特性在于动作(gesture)。区别于文字语言表意系统,动作潜在救赎了现代人被异化的感官体验。卢卡奇的早期电影书写与这一浪漫主义观念达成了共振:电影正使人类重返原初交流体验,在某种程度上即口述体验。

The essay examines Lukács's early film theory,especially his film essay“Thoughts towards an Aesthetic of the Cinema”,written in 1913.In the context of early German cinema(1895-1918),many a literary critic believed the uniqueness of film as a medium lay in its gesture that redeemed modern people’s alienated sensory experience potentially which is different from the ideographic system of written language.Lukács's early film writings resonated with such romanticist conceptions.That is,films exactly made human return to the primary communication experience,which to some extent is an oral experience.
