【摘要】：我们现在处于一个"后理论时代",这一时代并不仅仅说明理论衰落后的状态,它既是一个时间概念同时也蕴含着一定的内涵:它标志着西方文学和文化理论失去了曾经有过的黄金时代和轰动效应,即使是最有影响力和持久性的理论也有其时间和空间的局限,它不可能是放之四海而皆准的,它既然来自文学和文化实践,那就理应返回它应该发挥功能的场所。在"后理论时代",没有任何一种理论可以说君临一切,甚至都很难说能持久地占据主导地位,它和其他理论实际上呈一种共存和互动的状态,因此"后理论时代"又是一个没有主流和中心的时代,每一种理论都能在"众声喧哗"的氛围中找到自己可发挥作用的有限空间。因此,在"后理论时代",理论并没有死亡,只是不再具有以往的那种所向披靡和无所不能的效应,但依然能够有效地解释当代文学和文化现象。"后理论时代"的来临也为长期以来处于边缘地带的非西方文学和文化理论步入理论的中心进而和占据主导地位的西方理论进行平等对话铺平了道路。
[Abstract]:We are now in a "post-theoretical age", which is not only the state after the decline of the theory, but also a time concept and a certain connotation: it marks the golden age and the sensational effect that the western literature and culture theory has ever had, Even the most influential and persistent theory has its time and space limitations, and it is unlikely to be everywhere, and since it comes from literary and cultural practice, it should return to the place where it should be functioning. in that "post-theoretical age", there is no theory that it can be said that the monarch is on the right, and even it is hard to say that it can hold the dominant position in a long time, and it and other theories are in fact a state of coexistence and interaction, so that the "post-theoretical age" is an age without the main stream and the center, Each theory can find a limited space that can work in a "the noise of the crowd" 's atmosphere. Therefore, in the "post-theoretical age", the theory does not have the death, but it is no longer the most popular and omnipotent effect of the past, but still can effectively explain the contemporary literary and cultural phenomenon. The coming of the "post-theoretical age" has also paved the way for an equal dialogue between the non-western literary and cultural theories that have long been in the edge zone and the dominant western theory.
