摘要: 比较文学界近年来一直致力于从其他学科领域汲取营养,使比较文学这门传统学科重新焕发活力。本文将文学和舞蹈这两个看似迥异却有着紧密亲缘关系的学科置于跨学科语境下进行比较研究,分析文学与舞蹈的比较研究长期受学术界忽略的原因,探索二者之间比较的可能性,进而提出四种研究角度和路径:文学作品改编的舞作与原作的比较;探究文本中的舞蹈意象和元素对刻画人物形象、推动情节发展和表达文学主题等方面的作用;舞蹈新风潮和新语汇的产生对文学新理念的形成和文学创作的影响;舞蹈在少数族裔文学中的身份认同和表征的功能。这种从考察文学现象入手,经过文学和舞蹈学的跨学科理论分析之后再返回文学的批评实践,能够为比较文学理论做出必要的补充,也可以为理论的重新建构提供启示。

Abstract:

Comparative literature has been constantly drawing inspirations from other disciplines to revitalize itself. This article proposes a comparative study of the two seemingly different but affinitive disciplines — literature and dance — in the interdisciplinary context. By analyzing the reasons why comparative studies of literature and dance have been neglected by the academia, this article investigates the possibility of such kinds of comparisons, and provide four approaches: firstly, to compare literary works and their dance adaptations; secondly, to unravel the textual functions of dance elements in portraying characters, creating plots, and developing themes; thirdly, to investigate dance’s engagement with literary creation in terms of generating new terms and concepts; fourthly, to examine the role of dance in ethnic literature concerning identity crisis and representation. Interdisciplinary studies of literature and dance, with its focus on literary criticism, can complement the theories of comparative literature, and shed new light on its theoretical reconstruction.
