文学想象力刍议

文学史上的许多经典之作都可以说是想象力的产物。但想象力贫乏,却成为当下文学创作一个带有普遍性的问题。本文认为,这可以从文化传统、教育体制、时代等方面找到原因,但问题的关键还在于作家本身。另外,本文还对"散文与想象无关"这一论点提出了质疑,事实上,想象性是散文审美艺术的基本特征之一,是散文走向开放和现代化,显现艺术形式的开放性、现代性、丰富性的一个标志。人们可以在散文与想象之间找到丰富的路径。

Brief Discussion on Imaginative Power in Literature

Many literary classics may be claimed as the products of imaginative power.However,the common problem in literary writing is the lack of imaginative power for the time being,whose causes can be located in the cultural custom,the educational system and the current times,but mostly in the writers themselves.In addition,the viewpoint is questioned saying that "prose has nothing to do with imaginative power".In fact,imagination is one of the basic characteristics in prose writing,and also one sign for prose's openness,modernism and richness in artistic value.There is much to be found between prose and imagination.
