中国现当代文学的分期及其性质

中国现当代文学的分期应当根据文学发展的内在逻辑,这种内在逻辑主要体现在文学的叙事结构的断裂上。中国古典文学与现代文学在叙事结构上的断裂是20世纪初的1902—1905年,中国现代文学与当代文学在叙事结构上的断裂是1985年,因此中国现代文学始于1902—1905年,中国当代文学始于1985年。中国古典文学具有前现代性,中国现代文学具有现代性,中国当代文学具有后现代性。

The Periodization and Nature of Modern and Contemporary Chinese Literature

The Periodization of Modern and Contemporary Chinese Literature should be conducted according to the immanent logic of literary development, which is most importantly reflected by the discontinuities in the structure of literary narration. The discontinuity between classic literature and modern literature occurred in the years from 1902 to 1905, while that between modern literature and contemporary literature occurred in 1985, the year of the commencement of contemporary Chinese literature. In Classic Chinese literature we can find pre-modernity, in modern Chinese literature it is modernity, while in contemporary literature we have post-modernity.
