叙事学与中国叙事传统——傅修延教授学术思想访谈

On Narratology and Chinese Narrative Tradition:An Interview with Prof.Fu Xiuyan

本篇访谈围绕傅修延教授的学术思想展开,包括叙事学研究方法、中国叙事学与西方叙事学之间的关系、生态与叙事的关系、学问与社会的关系等。傅教授所说的"做学问需要接地气"为我们提供了一个富有逻辑的参照点来理解他的学术观点和学术立场:叙事学研究应该有温度,因为讲故事本身就是群体维系的重要手段;西方叙事学需要作用于中国叙事传统的研究才会更有价值;从本地生态叙事传统中获取解决现实生态问题的良方;象牙塔内没有真正的生活,学问要与事功相结合。

This interview focuses on Prof.Fu Xiuyan?s academic thoughts on such issues as approaches to narrative studies,the relationship between Western and Chinese narratology,the relationship between eco-system and narrative,and the relationship between learning and social practice.The belief"Learning is about solving real problems"advocated by Prof.Fu provides us with a consistent point of reference to understand his academic thoughts and stances:Narrative studies should be done in a warm way since story-telling is itself a way of maintaining a community;Western narratology can be of greater value when it is usefully applied to the study of Chinese narrative tradition;the solution to the ecological crisis can be available in the local eco-narratives;and finally,learning is all about solving real problems in life,rather than staying inside the ivory tower.
