关于建国后27年文学现代性的思考

建国后27年文学是否具现代性的问题是近几年学界讨论的一个热点问题。否定论者把个体人性价值作为文学现代性的唯一标准,并将个性主义与集体主义、社会解放与个性解放完全对立起来,从而认定现代性断裂的观点难以让人接受。文学现代性应是一个综合指标,它以具有内在联系的多种形态存在于27年文学之中。个性主义作为一种被压抑的现代性在中国现代文化语境的压力下也顽强地存在于一些政治化文本的潜在层面,留下了难以擦抹的痕迹。

Reflections on the Modernity of the 27-year literature after the founding of China

The issue whether the literature during the 27 years after the founding of China is of modernity has been being hotly discussed lately in the circle of literature. Negativists regard the value of individualistic humanism as the sole criteria and absolutely oppose individualism against collectivism, social liberation against individualistic liberation. This leads them to hold the unreasonable viewpoint: the disruption of modernity. Actually, the literature modernity should be a complex index and exist in the 27 years' literature in various inter-related forms. Individualism, as a suppressed modernity, staunchly survives the pressure of Chinese modern culture, presenting itself latently in some political works and leaving inerasable traces.
