消费语境下文学情感话语的症候分析

An Analysis of the Symptoms of Literary Emotional Discourse in the Context of Consumption

20世纪90年代以来,受消费文化的影响,当代文学的情感话语出现了许多重大的变化。首先是以作家为核心的情感话语的传统创造模式逐渐让位于以市场为导向、以大众媒介为依托的情感话语的生产模式;其次是情感话语的生态结构被打破,感伤与轻愁成为流行元素,苦难、崇高与悲剧日趋边缘,其精神内涵也在不断地消解。消费语境下的文学情感话语在快感美学的驱动下,强化了读者对于个体的虚拟性想象,但是遗忘了自身对于民族、国家、历史的责任与担当。在新的时代背景下,文学情感话语面临主体性重建、回归宏大叙事的紧迫任务。

Since the 1990s,influenced by consumer culture,there have been many significant changes in the emotional discourse of contemporary literature.Firstly,the traditional creative mode of emotional discourse centered on writers gradually gave way to the production mode of emotional discourse oriented by market and relying on mass media.Secondly,the ecological structure of emotional discourse has been broken,sentiment and light sorrow have become popular elements,suffering,sublimity and tragedy are increasingly on the edge,and their spiritual connotations are also dissolving constantly.Driven by pleasure aesthetics,the emotional discourse of literature in the context of consumption strengthens readers'virtual imagination of individuals,but neglects their own responsibilities for the nation,country and history.In the new era,literary emotional discourse faces the urgent task of subjectivity reconstruction and returning to grand narrative.
