十七年工业题材小说“成就不高”评价问题与反思

The Evaluation of and Reflection on the "Poor Achievement" of Novels on Industries

当下已在学界成为常识的十七年工业题材小说"成就不高",是一种自20世纪80年代初的当代文学史著作开始建构的观念。其成就不高,从创作层面上看,是由于工业题材小说与工业生产间的互动决定了其"生产劳动"为中心的创作模式,狭窄化了作家的创作空间;从接受维度看,是由于工业题材小说关于人性和经济的基本假设与构建当今社会秩序的主流经济文化相悖,造成了文本内真实性的破溃。放在世界文学中看待,十七年工业题材小说是一种与计划经济体制高度关联的存在,它呈现了一种迥异的经济想象,是特殊时期遗留下来的文学标本。

At present, the "low achievement"of novels themed with industries, a commonsense in academic circles, is a concept that has been constructed since the early 80 s of the 20 th century. In light of their creation, the interaction of industrial novels with industrial production determines the "productive labor" as the center of creation, which narrows down the writer's creative space; from the dimension of acceptance, the industrial novels about human nature and the basic assumptions of economy contradicts with the present mainstream economic culture, which breaks the authenticity of the text. Viewed from the perspective of the world literature, the seventeen year long industrial novels are highly correlated with the planned economy system. The totally different economic imagination they project is a literary specimen left behind from that special era.
