主流意识形态阵地——1949-1955年《人民文学》的主流叙事

文学期刊在20世纪中国文学发展过程中,具有重要地位。当代文学期刊不仅能及时地为作家提供刊发新作的场地,而且还将全国的文学创作,文学批评家加以集中有序的管理,以建立有着统一路线的文学格局。创办于1949年新中国成立时的《人民文学》即是当代文学期刊的典型代表。1949-1955年即"双百方针"之前的《人民文学》为贯彻执政党的文艺方针政策而呈现出主流叙事的基本特色,它严格遵照体现国家主流意识的办刊原则来保持它主流意识形态阵地的基本风貌。《人民文学》对其主流意识形态阵地的坚守是通过其号角式的时政性理论、旗帜式的主旋律创作与长矛式的运动化批评来实现的。主流叙事是双百方针之前的《人民文学》中占主导地位的话语形态,这是国家主流意识形态掌控和指引文艺刊物的直接效应。《人民文学》在引领中国当代文学创作主潮的同时体现了建国初期的时代氛围对它的重要影响。

The Mainstay Narrative in The People's Literature from 1949 to 1955

Literary journals play an important part in the development of Chinese literature in the 20th century.Contemporary literary journals can not only timely carry new works of writers but also well administer literary creation and literary critics nationwide so as to establish a unified literary setup.The People's Literature,set up in 1949 when the People's Republic of China was founded,is the most typical of contemporary literary journals.From 1949 to 1955 prior to the "Two Hundred" policy(the policy of "letting a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend"),The People's Literature embraced the basic features of mainstay narrative to implement the literary and artistic policies of the ruling Party and endeavored to maintain its style and features as a mainstay ideological front by strictly adhering to the principle of journal management reflective of the mainstay national consciousness.The adherence of The People's Literature to its status as a mainstay ideological front is realized by means of its slogan-like political theories,banner-like theme creations and severe movement-like criticisms.The mainstay narrative,the dominant discourse of The People's Literature prior to the implementation of the "Two Hundred" policy,resulted directly from the fact that literary journals were administered and directed by mainstay national ideology.While The People's Literature directed the main creation trend in modern Chinese literature,it did simultaneously exhibit the important impact of the epochal atmosphere in the early years of New China.
