论中国动画电影的现代神话叙事

The Modern Mythological Narrative of Chinese Animation Film

中国动画电影以对传统神话的转化为中心,形成了对传统神话的现代性重写与对现代生活的神话性叙事两个方面的叙事趋向。其依托传统神话所具有的故事属性与文化记忆存储效能,一方面在神话意义的再生产中触及人的精神世界,一方面在对现代世界的结构性模拟中重塑神话,生成了现代神话叙事的基本路径。基于此,中国动画电影又以时空的重塑构造现代神话的新形式,以人物及其与世界关系的重置再构传统神话的主题,以新的象征与符号世界构造新的神话意义关联机制,从而完成了对传统神话的再编码,大致构建出现代神话的文化符号系统。中国动画电影的现代神话生产,显露出了古老神话意义体系在现代社会中的生命力,同时也启示我们如果能以传统神话的象征隐喻思维与意义创造方式联结现代生活与技术科幻想象,将更好地助力今日的文化生产与意义世界建构。

Chinese animated films based on the transformation of tradi-tional myths as the center,form the narrative trend of the modern rewriting of traditional myths and the mythological narrative of modern life.According to the story attribute and cultural memory storage efficiency of the traditional.myth,they touch the human spiritual world in the reproduction of the myth significance,and reshape the new myth in the structural simulation of the modern world,generate the basic path of the modern myth narrative.Based on this,Chinese animated film reshape time and space to build a new form of modern myth.With the reset of characters and their relationship with the world,they reset the theme of the traditional myth,construct new myth meaning correlation mechanism with a new symbol and symbol world,thus complete the traditional myth coding,roughly build a cultural symbol system of modern myth.The production of modern myth of Chinese animated films not only reveal the ancient myth meaning system in modern society,but also inspire us that if we can connect the symbolic and metaphorical thinking and the way of meaning creation of traditional myth with modern life and technol-ogy science fiction imagination,we will better help in today's cultural pro-duction and constructing the world of meaning.
