城市文化视野下中国现当代文学研究范式革新论

On the Innovation of the Research Paradigm of Modern and Contemporary Chinese Literature in the View of Urban Culture

城市文学研究范式已由“城市中的文学”过渡到“文学中的城市”,这种范式转换明显激活了中国城市文学研究的学术思维,也为中国现当代文学研究开辟了新的发展空间。然而,通过对“文学中的城市”的概念溯源以及学理分析,可以发现,这一范式受到西方后现代主义史学理论以及文化史研究方法的潜在影响,引发了一些不容忽视的新问题。为了推进城市文化视野中的中国现代文学研究,应当继续革新现有的研究范式,兼顾城市本身的实在性与文学主体的能动性,在中国现当代文学“整体史”框架内审视城市文学主体“在场”的体验与叙事,将“文学史中的城市”“共构的城市”以及“重塑的城市”作为范式革新的理论要素。

Research paradigm of urban literature in China has transitioned from literature in the city to city in literature.This paradigm shift not only obviously activates the academic thinking of research on Chinese urban literature,but also opens a new development space for the study of modern and contemporary Chinese literature.However,through the concept tracing and theoretical analysis of city in literature,it can be found that this paradigm,which has been potentially influenced by western postmodernist historiography theory and cultural history research methods,has caused some new problems that can not be ignored.In order to promote the study of modern Chinese literature from the perspective of urban culture,the existing research paradigm needs to be innovated continuously.By giving consideration to the reality of the city itself and the initiative of literary subject,we should examine the presence experience and narration of the subject in the framework of the whole history of modern and contemporary Chinese literature,and take cities in the history of literature,co-constructed city and reshaped city as the theoretical elements of paradigm innovation.
