现代性与后现代的缠绕及其出路

Modernity and Postmodern Twine and Its Way Out

后现代在当代中国的历史不只是紊乱,而且被严重扭曲和涂改。如果说在后现代话语初起阶段,人们还并不能梳理清楚二者之间的关系;或者说为了给新的理论话语创建一个崭新的形象,而夸大了二者之间的对立和裂痕,那么,全部理论发展至今,就没有理由还在二者之间制造人为的冲突。在我看来,后现代并不是对现代性简单的抛弃和颠覆,而是在更加合理和从容的境况中,对现代性的修正、拓展和精细化。当代中国文学创作实践中表现出的困扰,也显示了重新建构后现代的思想视野和审美表现力的迫切需要。

Postmodern is not only in a state of chaos in the history of contemporary China, but has also been serverely distorted and altered. If somebody says in the first phase of the beginning for speech in postmodern, people could not distinguish clearly the relationship between the two; in other words, to creat a new image for the new theoretical speech it resulted in the exaggeration of the opposition and crack between the two, now there is no reason to make artifical conflict between the two till now. Postmodern is never to abandon in a simple way, nor to overturn it. It is to revise, to develop and to finish for modern nature under the more reasonable and unhurried condition. The perplexity in the practice of literary creation in China also shows the urgent need of rebuilding the ideological vision for postmodern and for the aesthetic power of expression.
