作为中国学者提出的原创性批评理论,文学伦理学批评引发了学界的广泛关注与热切好评。本文以聂珍钊教授新著《文学伦理学批评导论》一书为底本,首先分析了文学伦理学批评的诞生背景与学术意义,继而通过对文学的起源、文本的三种形态(脑文本、物质文本、电子文本)、伦理选择、斯芬克斯因子等相关论题的阐述,探讨了文学伦理学批评的主要观点和核心命题。在简要梳理文学伦理学批评在中国的接受与应用的基础上,文章对其未来发展提出了三个建议:建构文学伦理学批评的批评原则;考察文学的伦理与叙事形式之间的内在关联;加强中西方文学伦理学批评之间的交流与对话。
As an original critical theory formulated by a Chinese scholar, ethical literary criticism has received a large amount of attention from the academics. This paper, with reference to Nie Zhenzhao's new monograph Introduction to Ethical Literary Criticism, reviews the background and significance of ethical literary criticism before illuminating its major arguments and core issues such as the origin of literature, the existential forms of text (brain text, material text, and digital text), ethical selection, and Sphinx factor. Apart from surveying the critical receptions of ethical literary criticism in China, it also offers three tentative suggestions for the future development of this new critical theory, namely, the construction of its critical principles, the examination of the interconnections between ethics and narrative forms, and the necessity of placing dialogues between ethical criticism in the West and ethical literary criticism in China.
