Abstract

Abstract Kristeva has a close relationship with China. Not only has she obtained a degree in Chinese and been active in the “China Period” of Tel Quel, but she has also focused on the Chinese language, thought, and culture in both her academic research and her literary work. Kristeva’s early concern with Chinese primarily revolved around linguistics and semiotics. Influenced by the Chinese language, she proposed theories such as “logique poétique” and “le paragramme semiology.” After the 1970s, Kristeva began to introduce psychoanalytic and feminist perspectives into her research, focusing on understanding the Chinese language from the standpoint of Chinese thought, culture, and historical traditions and considering Chinese as a “tonal language.” Since the 1990s and especially in the 21st century, Kristeva further explored the potential for dialogue between Chinese and European cultures within the context of their “encounter.” Thus, Kristeva’s fascination with the Chinese language has become a prominent case of Western practice in the mutual learning between Chinese and Western literary theories.
从符号到文化朱莉娅-克里斯蒂娃对中文的迷恋
摘要 克里斯蒂娃与中国有着密切的关系。她不仅获得了中文学位,活跃在泰尔奎尔的 "中国时期",而且在学术研究和文学创作中都关注中国的语言、思想和文化。克里斯蒂娃早期对中文的关注主要围绕语言学和符号学。受汉语的影响,她提出了 "诗的逻辑"(logique poétique)和 "符号学范式"(le paragramme semiology)等理论。20 世纪 70 年代后,克里斯蒂娃开始在研究中引入精神分析和女性主义视角,注重从中国思想、文化和历史传统的角度理解汉语,将汉语视为一种 "音调语言"。20 世纪 90 年代以来,尤其是 21 世纪以来,克里斯蒂娃在中欧文化 "相遇 "的背景下,进一步探索中欧文化对话的可能性。因此,克里斯蒂娃对汉语的迷恋成为中西文学理论相互借鉴的一个突出的西方实践案例。
