章节摘录

Here remains the crucial difference between ethical criticism of the past and newethical criticism of today. While the former, in its worst forms of expression,practices overt didactic reading of a literary text with the sole purpose of endorsingor promoting one moral agenda or another, the latter is only interested indiscovering the various ethical values embedded in literary works that are part ofthe manifestation of their significance. To do this, new ethical criticism must remainin dialogue with the aesthetic structures of a text, for the tension between theseaesthetic structures and a text's ideological components solidifies a production oftextual meanings. Attention to these aesthetic structures may profitably contribute toa nonmonologic, nonthematic ethical criticism by demonstrating how to readliterature for insight, not into the kinds of ethical claims a text might convey, butinto the way ethical claims may be expressed or validated. This is not say thatethical themes can be sifted completely out of the process of ethical reading, butthese themes need not be taken as the exclusive object of study; rather, they areunderstood as simply an ideological effect of an equally important signifyingprocess. On this view, the structural example of ethically charged voices engaged inmoral dialogue within a text may serve both as the object of ethical criticism and asa morally illuminating model for one way critics may articulate their ownnonmonologic interpretive claims about a text's moral component.

作者简介

《比较文学:东方与西方12(英文版)》内容简介：欢迎大家阅读本期《比较文学：东方与西方》12009年早已过去，但苏珊·巴斯奈特却以其2006年发表在于英国比较文学学会（BCL，A）会刊《比较批判研究》（Cbmparative Critical.Studies,3）第三期的文章《二十一世纪比较文学反思》fReflections on Comoararive Litemture in the Twenty-First Century）又一次震动了了中国比较文学界。该文的中文译文首先刊登在《中国比较文学》2008年第四期，随后《中国比较文学》2009年第一期刊登了十几位中国比较文学学者针对该文撰写的笔谈。由于苏珊·巴斯奈特无法阅读中文，在佛克马教授的建议下，我们组织了这一组英文笔谈。这组文章对巴斯奈特的论文进行了进一步讨论，我们希望能够与全世界同仁一起继续深入探讨比较文学研究领域中出现的新问题。毕竟，比较文学还是一个相对年轻的学科。
