网络玄幻小说的代际审美

Intergenerational Aesthetics of Online Xuanhuan Novels

在互联网时代,新媒介的出现极大地改变了小说的创作模式,也促进小说新样式——网络玄幻小说的诞生。网络玄幻小说的创作与流行,在审美上表现出与主流文学较大的差异性。网络玄幻小说与主流文学之间的审美差异性,不仅是由于新媒介的出现,更是青年与父辈之间的审美差异性所导致的,即代际审美影响着中国网络玄幻小说的审美生成。这种代际审美差异虽不是绝对“天差地别”的表现,但也折射出青年人迥异父辈的创作思维:一是规避传统文学经典的审美创作思维;二是重返虚构性叙事的审美创作思维;三是重回尚奇尚怪式叙事的审美创作思维。

In the Internet age,the emergence of new media has greatly changed the mode of novel creation,and also promoted the birth of a new style of novels-network Xuanhuan novels.The creation and popularity of online fantasy novels show a big difference from mainstream literature in terms of aesthetics.This paper believes that the aesthetic difference between online Xuanhuan novels and mainstream literature is not only caused by the emergence of new media,but also caused by the aesthetic differences between young people and their parents,that is,intergenerational aesthetics affects the aesthetics of Chinese online fantasy novels generate.Although this intergenerational aesthetic difference is not an absolute“cliff-like”expression,it also reflects the creative thinking of young people who are very different from their parents:one is to avoid the aesthetic creative thinking of traditional literary classics;the second is to return to the aesthetic creative thinking of fictional narratives;the third is to return to the aesthetic creative thinking of the strange and strange narrative.
