女性文学批评本土化过程中的语境差异

西方女性主义文学批评进入中国后遇到了完全不同于其理论源头的接受环境。这些接受环境差异包括:一、历史背景的差异,其主要表现为西方女性主义文学批评是先“破”后“立”,而中国本土则是先“立”后“破”;二、意识形态差异,主要表现为西方文化中的民主传统与中国传统文化中的集权思想形成的对照;三、学术背景差异,西方女性主义文学批评是以反拨“新批评”的学术革命开始的,而中国本土则得益于马克思主义的社会历史批评的滋养。这些差异既决定了中国女性主义文学批评的独特面貌,同时又呼唤西方理论本土化研究的新思路。

The Difference of Language Environment in the Nativization of the Feminist Literary Criticism

When introduced into China, the feminist literary criticism of the West was greeted with a reception environment diametrically different from its theoretical source. The differences include: 1.The difference in historical background, mainly manifested in the fact that "construction" came after "destruction" in the case of the feminist literary criticism of the West, whereas it was the other way round in the case of China. 2. The difference in ideology, mainly manifested in the contrast between the democratic tradition in Western culture and the concept of centralization in traditional Chinese culture. 3. The difference in academic background, mainly manifested in the fact that the feminist literary criticism of the West began with the academic revolution of refuting "the new criticism", while the feminist literary criticism of China drew its nourishment from the Marxist socio-historical criticism. These differences not only predetermined the unique feature of China's feminist literary criticism, but they also called for a new line of thought in the nativized research of the Western theory.
