新潮社与中国现代文学社团的雏形

The New Trend Society and the embryonic form of contemporary Chinese literature societies

如果说文学研究会是中国现代文学史上第一个成熟的文学社团 ,新潮社则已具备了现代文学社团的雏形。在这一意义上 ,将新潮社与新青年社放在同一类型中审视并不妥当。新潮社虽然同新青年社一样广泛涉及到新文化运动的各个方面 ,但它比新青年社更注重文学 ,所取得的文学成就对于新文学的此后发展具有某种决定性的意义 ;它的运行方式及其呈露出来的种种现象 ,也对中国现代文学社团起到了某种先导性的启迪作用。

Compared with the Literature Institute in the history of contemporary Chinese literature, the New Trend Society can be regarded as the embryonic form of contemporary literature. It is not proper to arrange the New Trend Society in the same group with the New Youth Society as the former made greater achievements in literature and promoted the course of new literature. The operation of the New Trend Society and its sequent events also played an enlightening role in the development of contemporary Chinese literature societies.
