《理论的终结》(TheoryEnds)一文对大写理论的含义和形形色色反理论的代表人物与观点进行了梳理和分类,作者认为“终结”的概念错综复杂,持不同立场的人对它抱有不同的态度。实际上,理论在政治、经济和文化等诸多因素的作用下正在经历一场嬗变,所谓的终结只不过是某个运动或流派在历史上的结束或消逝,丧失的只是理论的个别身份和作用,理论的一些特征将继续存在下去,并以新的不同形式对现实作出反应。本文译自2005年出版的美国现代语言协会刊物《职业》(Profession)。 The Theory Ends article sorts and classifies the meaning of uppercase theory and the representatives and opinions of all kinds of anti-theories. The author thinks that the concept of “end” is intricate and the people with different positions hold different attitudes toward it . In fact, the theory is going through a transmutation under the influence of many factors such as politics, economy and culture. The so-called end is nothing more than the end or disappearance of a certain movement or genre in history. What is lost is only the individual identity and role of the theory Some features of the theory will continue to exist and respond to reality in new and different forms. This article is from Profession, the publication of the Association of Modern Languages ​​published in 2005.
