文学作品的体裁按照四分法应包括诗歌、小说、散文和戏剧，就诗歌而言，可分为抒情诗和叙事诗。“注释”是否应算作文学体裁家族中的一员则很少有人去探讨。如果“注释”不能算作诗歌，那么，加拿大著名诗人玛格丽特阿特伍德的“ＮｏｔｅｓＴｏｗａｒｄｓａＰｏｅｍＴｈａｔＣａｎＮｅｖｅｒＢｅＷｒｉｔｔｅｎ”（为一首永远写不成的诗而作的注释）是否应算作诗呢？诗歌的定义又是什么呢？如果说诗歌的基本特征是通过抒发强烈的感受和情绪以反映社会生活，那么，我们应当用一分为二的分析方法来探讨阿特伍德的这些印刷符号。诗可以写不出来，但可以想象出来，甚至口头表达出来。作品中的“你们”、“我们”的关系又是什么？是作者和读者的关系吗？

论现代奇幻小说的界定与价值

作为一种新兴、独立的故事文体,现代奇幻小说与科幻小说一样属于幻想文学的一支,它最初在神话复苏与反理性主义思潮的冲击下形成,并表现出独特的文学内涵与艺术价值。经过一百多年的发展,现代奇幻小说在创作上取得了不俗的实绩,但与之相关的理论建构却始终处于相对薄弱的状态,其文类界定与价值判断也尚缺乏一个相对客观的认知与评判。事实上,在对现代奇幻小说的文类边界进行判定时,既应追溯其源流,也应观采其发展。除此以外,现代奇幻小说的诞生与繁荣也喻示着现代文化的又一次转向,它在与流行文化合流的过程中既呈现出与以往小说作品大异其趣的艺术魅力,同时也为批判现代文明提供了新的路径与窗口。

“气”与“理”:中西方“体”与“genre”的对比研究——以《文心雕龙》和《诗学》为例

为了明晰中国古代的“体”与西方的“genre”之间的异同。本文以《文心雕龙》与《诗学》为研究对象,以刘勰和亚里士多德为代表的中西方“体”与“genre”进行比较分析。按其基本内涵与意义指涉:“体”与“genre”同时呈现出对“体裁”之意的强调,中国“体”要比西方“genre”的意义指涉宽泛,前者广涉“文章”、“风格”之意,后者则反复强调“文体”之内涵的重要性。在美学趣味与文艺取向上:中国“体”特别强调作者之“性”的气质美、感性美,重视主体之源,而西方“genre”则侧重于对形式的突显,对主观与客观的协调中突出了理性的重要。
