论后殖民主义视野中的“寻根”文学

Title: On the "Tracing Back for Root "Literature with in the Scope of Postcolonialism

后殖民主义是20世纪70年代以来影响深远的一种西方当代文化思潮。“寻根”文学自其产生之日起,就注定有无法克服的“悖谬”窘境。一方面,它对中国文化的“被迫现代化”表现出的明显的反叛情绪,显示了其后殖民主义的批判性;而另一方面,它对中国古老文化表现出的过分的迷恋和沉醉,又使它陷入了无法自拔的文化上的本土主义。

Postcolonialism is a kind of far-reaching contemporary cultural trend since the seventieth, the essay aims at reexamining the eightieth's 'tracing back for root' Chinese literature in search for deep reasons of its birth and declination from the angel of postcolonialism, and further reveals the contradiction of 'the searching for root' literature. Ever since the birth of 'searching for root' literature, it is destined to be in an embarrassing situation which is hard to overcome. On the one hand, it shows its obvious rebellion towards 'forced modernization' of Chinese culture, reflecting the critical nature of postcolonialism, and on the other hand,it shows its extreme fascination towards Chinese ancient culture,thus it sinks into cultural nativeness?
