当代中国舞剧叙事形态研究

Research on the Narrative Forms of ContemporaryChinese Dance Drama

1949年中华人民共和国成立以来的舞剧创作实践,从舞剧叙事形态切入并进行分类梳理,可以总结出四种不同时期:情节、性格、冲突等均以线性结构方式展开的“哑剧叙事”形态时期;情境、性格、冲突等均以多重交织方式展开的“交响叙事”形态时期;以心理动机推进剧情方式展开的“心理叙事”形态时期;以引导出某种观念或发人深思的主题为目标方式展开的“隐喻叙事”形态时期。四个时期的叙事形态有差异,也互有交叉。这些形态表达既是编导个人能动选择的产物,同时也是对舞剧生产时代大背景的回应。

In the perspective of the morphology of dance drama narration,the creation of dance drama after1949 when the People's Republic of China was funded can be divided into four stages.'The first is the stageof“pantomime narration”when the plot,character and conflicts are all unfolded in a linear structure.Thesecond is the stage of“symphony narration”when context,character and conflicts are all unfolded in a multi-woven way.The third is the stage of "psychological narration"in which the plot is advanced by psycho-logical motivation.The fourth is the stage of“metaphor narration”which is led by the aim teasing out somekind of idea or profound theme.The four narrative forms are different but they also overlap each other.These morphological expressions are not only results of the editors’personal choice but also the response forthe grand context where dance drama originates from.
