摘要: 中国语境中的文学人类学研究于20世纪前期主要在神话和歌谣研究领域进行人类学方法的尝试,新时期以来,在现代人类学及后现代相关理论的影响下,研究领域逐渐扩大到文学文本和文化文本。两个历史时期的研究实践表明,文学人类学在方法论上的追求是一脉相承的,具体表现为跨文化比较、原始主义、语境主义以及田野调查等方法的提出和应用。人类学从研究不同文化的“普遍性经验”到“地方性经验”进而充分考察“个体性经验”,文学人类学据此可以进行新的方法论尝试。

Abstract: This paper is a critical survey of literary anthropology in Chinese context. In the early 20th century in China, the main areas of investigation of literary anthropology are myths and ballads; during the Post-Mao Period, literary studies from the anthological perspective expand to literary texts and cultural texts, due to the influence of experimental ethnography and postmodernism. Practices in the above two periods show a consistent interest of research in the approaches of literary anthropology which evolves into the methods of cross-cultural comparison, primitivism, contextualism and field study etc. The paper concludes with the reflection on the potentialities and limits of literary anthropology in Chinese literary theory.

Key words: literary anthropology, cross-cultural comparison, primitivism, contextualism, field study
