摘要

摘要：作为一种美学立场，历史主义批评比作为一种生产知识的学科更有意义。我研究了盖伦·斯特劳森的散文《反对叙事》和伊恩·麦克尤恩的小说《周六》，以解释历史主义独特的美学。斯特劳森区分了对时间的长期性和情节性取向，两位作家都致力于验证情节性视角，反对长期性在心理和道德上是规范性的。由于历史主义批评赋予了超越或排除叙事的与过去的独特顿悟相遇的特权，历史主义者表现为不快乐的Diachronics，寻求一种情节性的实现，而他们之前对权力叙事的总体化承诺使这种实现变得难以捉摸。

Diachronicity, Episodicity, and the Aesthetic of Historicist Criticism

Abstract:Historicist criticism makes more sense as an aesthetic stance than as a discipline for producing knowledge. I examine Galen Strawson's essay "Against Narrativity" and Ian McEwan's novel Saturday to account for historicism's distinct aesthetic. Strawson distinguishes between Diachronic and Episodic orientations toward time, and both writers work to validate the Episodic perspective against the claim that Diachronicity is psychologically and ethically normative. Because historicist criticism privileges singular epiphanic encounters with the past that would transcend or preclude narrativization, historicists appear as unhappy Diachronics, seeking an Episodic fulfillment that their prior commitment to totalizing narratives of power renders elusive.

期刊介绍： For more than a quarter century, Philosophy and Literature has explored the dialogue between literary and philosophical studies. The journal offers a constant source of fresh, stimulating ideas in the aesthetics of literature, theory of criticism, philosophical interpretation of literature, and literary treatment of philosophy. Philosophy and Literature challenges the cant and pretensions of academic priesthoods by publishing an assortment of lively, wide-ranging essays, notes, and reviews that are written in clear, jargon-free prose. In his regular column, editor Denis Dutton targets the fashions and inanities of contemporary intellectual life.
