山岳想象的逻辑——以昆仑的乌托邦化叙事为个案

The Logic of Imagining Lofty Mountains:A Case Study of Kunlun’s Utopian Narration

山岳关乎地理,更关乎人文。人们对山岳的想象及其历史过程关联起了山岳的物质与文化两个维度。对山岳的想象不仅仅是知识精英个人式的心理独白,更是一种社会实践的建构。通过梳理文献文本中昆仑及其“乌托邦化”的叙事问题,认为集“地理”“历史”“文化”三重维度想象的昆仑是基于中华文化对异域空间的想象,是中心对边缘、异邦的意识形态性建构,它试图在现实之外构筑一个理想的乌托邦之乡,以重塑和调整现实社会的秩序与权力格局。

Mountains are not only about geography,but also about humanity.People’s imagination of mountains and its historical process are related to the two dimensions of material and culture of mountains.The imagination of mountains is not only the individual psychological monologue of intellectual elites,but also the construction of social practice.By combing the narrative problems of Kunlun and its“utopianism”in the literature,this present paper holds that Kunlun,which integrates the three dimensions of“geography”,“history”and“culture”,is based on the imagination of Chinese culture to the foreign space,and is the ideological construction of the center to the edge and the foreign country.It tries to build an ideal Utopia beyond the reality,so as to reshape and adjust the rank of the real society order and power structure.
