评王明科《中国文化与文学的现代化》

王明科《中国文化与文学的现代化》一书从文化反思的视角对中国文化与文学的现代化做出了新的开拓研究,首先指出中国文化现代化与现代性之建设论域中的十景病情,其次分别从无名氏、鲁迅、沈从文、杨义等四位文化大家出发,考察了反抗、建构、回瞥、实践等四个方面的文化现象,最后得出的结论是：传统与现代的悖论构成了中国文化的根本矛盾,传统与现代的各自内部本身也是个悖论性结构,在双重内在驱动力的多元文化冲突下,现代作家于互相矛盾的三大向度上试图去建设中国现代文化,这个新系统不是完美的,而是能够推动当时中国文化现代化发展的有某种选择甚至缺陷的新系统。

On Modernization of Chinese Culture and Literature by Wang Mingke

Modernization of Chinese Culture and Literature by Wang Mingke has carried out an exploration into the modernization of Chinese culture and literature from the perspective of cultural reflection. After identifying ten weaknesses in discussions about modernization and modernity of Chinese culture, this monograph centers on four cultural phenomena including resistance, construction, reflection and practice with four famous writers as case studies, who are Wuming Shi, Lu Xun, Shen Chongwen and Yang Yi. In the end, it draws a conclusion as follows： the contradiction between tradition and modern has constituted the fundamental one of Chinese culture. Furthermore, the inner structure of tradition and modernity is also full of contradictions. It is in the context of conflicts between multiple cultures that modern writers have made efforts to construct modern Chinese culture at three levels contradictory to each other. This new system is far from being perfect, but it has helped to develop the modernization of Chinese culture.
