摘要
2017年,哈佛大学出版公司出版的王德威主编的《哈佛新编中国现代文学史》是颇具标志性意义的文学史著述。西方现代思想的理性化体现在科学方法和思维的运用,现代性的历史观强调运用科学理性发现历史运动的本质和规律。然而,后现代主义历史思想家福柯反对“大写历史”的一元论、因果论与线性论,强调历史发展中的非理性化、非中心化、非精英化,其考古学方法呈现历史的偶然性。该书深受西方后现代主义史学思想尤其是福柯理论的影响,编撰者在异质性空间以知识考古学方法完成对文学史“反主体”“反总体”“反连续”的书写,以谱系学方法探讨文学史的“来源”与“知识”,体现了深受后现代主义历史观影响的文学史观念与实践。《哈佛新编中国现代文学史》采用“星丛”式的编年体例,以时间序列构建历史脉络,以知识考古学与谱系学书写方法重构了中国现代文学史。该书具有文学史观念革命及其体例实验的价值,其历史理念具有现代性与后现代性的多元性和复杂性,并非对福柯理念的简单套用。
The New Harvard History of Modern Chinese Literature,edited by Wang Dewei and published by Harvard University Press in 2017,is a landmark work in literary history.The rationalization of Western modern thought is embodied in the application of scientific methods and thinking,and the modern historical view empha⁃sizes the use of scientific rationality to discover the nature and laws of historical movements.However,Michel Fou⁃cault,a postmodernist historical thinker,opposed the monism,causality and linearity of"grand history",and empha⁃sized the non-rationalization,non-centralization and non-elitism of historical development,so his archaeological method demonstrated the contingency of historical research.As the book is deeply influenced by Western postmod⁃ern historical thought,especially Foucault's theory,its compiler narrated the"anti-subject","anti-totality"and"anti-continuity"of literary history in a heterogeneous space by virtue of knowledge archaeology,and discussed the"source"and"knowledge"of literary history using genealogical methods,which reflects the concept and practice of literary history profoundly affected by the postmodern historical view.The New Harvard History of Modern Chinese Literature adopts a"star cluster"style chronological system,constructs a historical context through time series,and reconstructs the history of modern Chinese literature using knowledge archaeology and genealogy writing methods.The book has the value of conceptual revolution and stylistic experiment in literary history,for its historical ideas have the pluralism and complexity of modernity and post-modernity,which is not a simple application of Foucault's ideas.
