摘要
作为其一生文学思想的起点,左拉针对文学再现之真实性问题所提出的"屏幕说",与其后来作为自然主义文学理论家所提出的"真实感""个性表现"等重大理论主张息息相通。作为对摹仿现实主义之"镜"的扬弃与浪漫主义之"灯"的矫正,"屏幕说"所开启的文学"显现论"拒绝以二元对立的思维模式来理解作家与世界的关系,坚持文学只能是在世界中的人对其在与世界交合境遇中的个人体验的直呈。既是人的自我显现,又是世界在人之显现中的显现,既反对浪漫主义的极端"表现",又否认"再现"能达成绝对的真实,显现论不惟达成了对再现论与表现论所代表着的本质主义诗学的颠覆,而且汲取"再现"与"表现"各自的合理成分,实现了两者的融合;这种融合在本质上乃是一种新质的诞生而非旧质的简单叠加,显现论完成了西方现代文学本体论的重构。
As the starting point of his literary thoughts,Emile Zola’s"Screen Theory"raised for the question of the authenticity of literary representation is closely related to some major theoretical claims such as"the Sense of the Real"and"Expression of Personality,"which were later put forward by him as a naturalist literary theorist.As the sublation of"the Mirror"of Mimetic Realism and the rectification of"the Lamp"of Romanticism,"Epiphany Theory"ushered in by"Screen Theory"refuses to understand the relationship between the writer and the world in a binary oppositional mode of thinking,insisting that literature can only be the"direct manifestation"of the personal experience of the human in the world in his encounter with the world.Epiphany refers to not only the epiphany of the man,but also the epiphany of the world in the epiphany of the man.It not only rejects the extreme expressiveness of Romanticism but also denies that Representation can achieve absolute truth.Therefore,"Epiphany Theory"has not only achieved its subversion of the Essentialist Poetics represented by the"Representation Theory"and the"Expression Theory,"but also acquired the respective reasonable components of these two theories so as to achieve the fusion of them.This kind of fusion is essentially the birth of a new theory rather than simple superimposition of old qualities."Epiphany Theory"thereby completes the reconstruction of the ontology of Western modern literature.
