The Construction of Critical Discourse and the Rise of Marginal Culture——The Local Approach to"New Southern Writing"
In the contemporary literary circles of the new century,the"new southern writing"is a literary phe-nomenon that has attracted as much attention as the"new northeast writers group".As a new critical concept,the proposal of the"new southern writing"is not only a summary of local writing in the new south region,but also a dis-course construction activity involving the co-participation of writers,critics and academic journal editors.Based on the local approach,the writing style of the"new southern writing"can be summarized into three aspects:the repro-duction of locality and local customs;the transformation of dialects and non-transparent language;as well as the prominence of"enchanted aesthetics".The"new southern writing"has opened up new spaces for literary discus-sions and academic research from a new perspective,and has reconstructed the geographical map of Chinese litera-ture and culture with the cultural imagination of"the rise of the periphery".
