文化研究是20世纪50年代以来在西方兴起的学术研究思潮,其复杂的理论构成和前沿性的学术思想突破了传统的文艺批评和文学研究的范式,将关注点从文学文本拓展至一切文化现象:种族、阶级、性别、政治、艺术等多学科的领域,历经多年来的发展,文化研究最终确定了自身的学科地位,其影响力也从欧洲波及到了美国乃至全世界。本文将从早期文化研究的学科发展的角度来论述其“现代性”的重要转向。 The research of culture is the trend of academic research in western countries since the 1950s. Its complicated theoretical composition and cutting-edge academic ideas have broken through the traditional paradigms of literary criticism and literary study, expanding the focus from literary texts to all cultural phenomena : In the multi-disciplinary fields of race, class, gender, politics and art, after years of development, the study of culture has finally determined its own academic status and its influence has spread from Europe to the United States and the world. This article will discuss the important shift of its “modernity” from the perspective of the disciplinary development of early cultural studies.
