论“新边塞诗”的在地性

On the Regionalism of the “New Frontier Poetry”

新边塞诗的创作者多为新中国成立初期(1949-1966)迁居新疆的外乡人,以垦荒劳动为核心的在地体验塑造了他们的地方认同,这也就是新边塞诗在地性的发生。20世纪80年代初,进军主流诗坛的压力迫使诗人发掘边地的“中心感”,于在地性和全国性之间求取平衡。同时,他们对新疆的在地认同中潜藏着对故乡的怀想,在诗歌中表现为故乡—异乡的复调。新边塞诗在地性所内含的双重矛盾,映现了新中国一代进疆知识分子主体性建构的精神履痕。

The writers of new frontier poetry are mostly the persons who moved to Xinjiang during the period of 1949-1966 after the founding of PRC. Their local experience of reclamation has shaped their local identity, which is the occurrence of the local nature of the New Frontier Poetry. In the 1980s, the pressure to enter the mainstream poetry forced these poets to explore the “sense of centrality” of the frontier, striking a balance between regionalism and nationalism. At the same time, their local identity with Xinjiang mixed with the feeling of nostalgia for their hometown, which is expressed in poetry as a polyphony of hometown-foreign land. The double contradictions contained in the local nature of the new frontier poetry reflected the spiritual traces of the subjective construction of a generation of intellectuals who entered Xinjiang in New China.
