5～11世纪中国文学写本整理研究概论

5~11世纪中国文学写本主要包括敦煌、吐鲁番两地出土文学写本、日本等境外藏中国文学写本三大块内容。写本的流动性、零散性与个性化的特征,与刻本的固定性、完整性和社会化的特点形成比较鲜明的对比,因而体现了它独特的学术价值。"5~11世纪中国文学写本整理、编年与综合研究"课题包括"写本基本情况""全部内容的录文和校勘""综合研究"三项主要内容,预期在文学写本校录、编年、写本整体内涵的发掘、写本与文学的生成与传播等方面取得成果。

敦煌文学写本研究的回顾与展望

敦煌藏经洞出土的文学写本,是研究5-11世纪中国文学结集和传播的重要资料。上世纪九十年代之前,学术界主要按文体分类辑录的方式整理研究敦煌文学作品。进入新世纪,用写本学的方法研究敦煌文学写本,渐成为一种自觉。写本学的研究方法,重视写本的物质形态,重视写本全部的信息,把每一个写本当作一个生命体、当作一个文化生态进行探讨。由相互联系的多个文学写本构成的写本群,是研究敦煌文学写本的新的切入点。

写本时期文学作品的结集——以敦煌写本Дx3871+P.2555为例

文学作品的结集,是文学传播的重要方式。简牍写本时期,编联一定数量的简成为"一个写本",即一个作品集。作为流通传播的写本一般篇幅不大,抄一篇或数篇文章。写本前面一般要加背景性文字,有的末尾还有事情发展结果的说明。纸的使用,对文学的创作和结集都具有重要的意义,既能让作家尽情地挥洒情感,又可让写本制作者汇集更多更好的作品。Дx3871+P.2555写本是敦煌归义军下层官员毛押牙陷蕃归来后编集而成的,其中有他创作的记录其痛苦经历的60首陷蕃诗。从其结集构成的8个板块,可以感受到结集者思想情感的变化,尤其是不同板块之间的过渡,编者借用不同的作品表达他不同时刻的思想和情绪,更体现出文学写本包含的生命情怀。

写本文学初形

与诸子讴歌啸咏的表演性相比，庄周、屈原、荀况师徒三派的文学活动有一个新异而显著的特征，那就是书写性。它基本上脱离了乐舞表演体制，而成为由书面形式独立运载的文辞。尽管有时它依然用于歌唱，已经获得的独立不可逆转。这个现象，这里称之为写本文学之初形。

Writing as a Supplement： Jacques Derrida＇s Deconstructive Reading of Rousseau＇s Confessions

The present study constitutes a critical appraisal of the deconstructive reading of Rousseau＇s Confessions that Derrida undertakes in the second part of Of Grammatology. In this examination, the author will first list some of the significations into which Derrida disperses （forced, as he asserts himself, by an ＂inassimilable residue＂ in the text itself） the meaning that he has already construed as apparently simple during the first moment of deconstructive reading （i.e., ＂the doubling commentary＂）; the author will then go on to enquire into the operations which enable Derrida to arrive at these self-conflicting significations. The main aim of this essay is to demonstrate that it is not language alone that disables the philosophy of Rousseau and enables the philosophy of Derrida. When Derrida attempts to support his philosophy through an analysis of Rousseau＇s theory of language and the alleged contradictions in Rousseau＇s texts, he misinterprets basic tenets of these texts in order to make them conform to the presuppositions of the deconstructive approach. The ＂reversal＂ and ＂displacement＂ of metaphysical conceptuality in the text of the Confessions is made possible after the text has had meanings transposed into it from a plurality of other texts. Derrida attributes to the text significations he discovers by construing, explicating and over-reading passages that occur elsewhere in Rousseau＇s total oeuvre （especially in the Essay on the Origin of Languages）.

Three-Dimensional World of Similes in English Fictional Writing

The paper offers a three-dimensional linguosemiotic study of similes, which implies integral analysis of their semantic, syntactic, and pragmatic aspects. Such an approach to the study of similes is quite new as they have been hitherto considered either from a literary viewpoint as one of the stylistic expressive means of language or in the philosophy of language in correlation with metaphor. The three-dimensional linguosemiotic methodology of research has enabled us： （1） to reveal the cognitive, psychological, and metaphorical essence of similes and work out the invariant conceptual model which remains unchanged throughout their structural-semantic variation in the text; （2） to single out pragmatic features of similes, the set of which defines their linguistic status as a language-in-use construct, i.e., textual phenomenon; （3） to study the denotational-cognitive aspect of similes pointing out the parameters according to which similes have been differentiated into semantic types and subtypes and （4） to generalize the syntactical aspect of similes and define the set of their structural modifications in the text conditioned both by the intralinguistic regularities and by pragmatic factors. Therefore, we have worked out an interdisciplinary theory of similes implying the synergy of the data of linguistic, literary, cognitive, and psychological studies

Julia Lovell as a Faithful Rewriter in Translating Chinese Literary Text： The Version of A Dictionary of Maqiao as a Case in Point

As a professional translator, Chinese history lecturer and academic writer, Julia Lovell has made a lot of contributions in translating modem Chinese literary works into English. But the field of translation studies has not given due attention to her so far. Based on her own practice and understanding of translation, she presented the notion of faithful recreation as her translation principle. This article sheds light on how she implemented her translation notion in the process of her translation, taking her version of A Dictionary of Maqiao as a case to examine the effectiveness of her work under the guidance of faithful recreation. The discussion mainly focuses on the sound level, the grammatical level, pragmatic level, and original creativity

Theory of Textual Patterns and Discourse Coherence in Students＇ English Writing

The present study applies ＂Textual Patterns＂ like ＂general-specific＂ and ＂claim-counterclaim＂ to explore discourse coherence in Chinese students＇ English writing. The study confirms the function of the textual patterns as macro-structures for discourse interpretation and production, and proves textual patterns as effective tools in identifying and solving problems with discourse coherence in Chinese EFL （English as a Foreign Language） learners＇ writing.

Metadiscourse Use in L2 Student Essay Writing: A Longitudinal Cross-Contextual Comparison

This paper investigates developmental patterns of metadiscourse use in Chinese students’EAP writing in an English medium university,in comparison with English majors’EFL writing in mainstream state universities and L1 student writing in UK universities.Taking a longitudinal and cross-contextual perspective,the study explores corpora of L1 and L2 student writing gathered from three sources:EAP essays written by Chinese undergraduate students at an English Medium Instruction(EMI)university;argumentative essays written by English majors in the Written English Corpus of Chinese Learners(WECCL);and academic essays of English L1 students from the British Academic Written English(BAWE)corpus.Hyland’s(2005 a)model of metadiscourse was adopted to identify interactive and interactional devices in each corpus,and results were compared between different levels as well as across the corpora to reveal developmental features.Findings show marked differences in metadiscourse use between Chinese EMI students’EAP essays and English major students’EFL essays in mainstream state universities,whereas a similar pattern of use occurred in EAP essays and English L1 student academic essays.Significant changes were also found between different year levels in two L2 essay corpora.The findings suggest that metadiscourse use in L2 writing had developmental trajectories distinctive to different institutional contexts,with EAP instruction in the EMI institution having mixed effects on Chinese students’awareness and use of metadiscourse in essay writing.
