摘要

根据罗蒂新实用主义的逻辑，我们不能说罗蒂的文学理论以其哲学思想为基础，而只能说作为新实用主义者的罗蒂与作为文学理论家的罗蒂，在某种意义上构成相互阐发的关系。所以我们不妨从新实用主义的定义难题出发，充分激活文学与哲学的张力关系，考察罗蒂对文学理论的设计与期待。我们还可以将理论分为“探究”“难题化”“疗治”三种路径，以求对一种可能的新实用主义文学理论的提问方式、运思路径和论说策略进行更好的定位。

Abstract

In virtue of the logic of Richard Rorty's neo-pragmatism, it is problematic to claim that Rorty's literary theory is based on his philosophy. Rather, Rorty as a neo-pragmatist and a literary theorist can both make more sense if they are put together. So we may need start from the controversy over the definition of neo-pragmatism, and activate the tension between literature and philosophy, in order to give a more thoughtful examination of Rorty's design of literary theory. Besides, we can divide theories into three types according to their function: inquiry, problematization, and therapeutics. Thus we may place better a possible neo-pragmatic literary theory, including how it asks, how it thinks, and how it answers.
