摘要:

中国电影的类型研究与中国社会的发展有密切关系,社会文化语境的变迁是决定电影类型研究兴衰沉浮的关键因素,电影类型研究的变化与转向往往也是社会文化语境变迁的反映与折射。中国电影的类型研究经过了近百年的发展,取得了显著的进展:从功利性、实用性转向学术化、专业化;从注重社会教育功能转向关注娱乐功能;从学习西方的类型理论走向了民族类型电影研究。中国电影类型研究的具体发展历史也决定了未来可能面临的问题与挑战:首先,目前,制约我国电影类型研究进一步发展的最大瓶颈是本土电影类型理论的缺失;其次,如何实现西方类型理论的中国化是目前急需解决的问题之一;最后,中国电影的类型研究应关注一些世界电影类型研究中的共同问题,应该具有一种全球化的视野,将中国电影的类型研究作为世界电影类型研究的一部分,对世界电影类型研究上面临的共同问题,努力做出自己的贡献。

Retrospect, Survey and Prospect
——A Reflection of the Study of the Chinese Film Genre(School of FilmTelevision Art and Technology, Shanghai University, Shanghai 200072, China)Abstract: The study of the Chinese film genre has a close relation to the development of China' s society. While the transformation of cultural context in society determines the success or failure of the study of the Chinese film genre, the diversification and diversion of the study of the Chinese film genre often reflect on the transformation of cultural context in society. In a period of about 100 years, the study of the Chinese film genre has already obtained an obvious development: (1) changing from utility or practicality to academic or specialization; (2) changing from focus on education function to stress on amusement function; (3) changing from copying Western genre theories to research for national film genres. At the same time, China' s concrete development history of the study of the Chinese film genre also determines its problems and challenges faced in the future. First, at the present, the further development of the study of the Chinese film genre is meeting with a big bottleneck of the shortage of the native theory of film genre. Secondly, one of the urgent problems solved currently is how to localize the theory of the Western film genre. Thirdly, the study of the Chinese film genre must attach an importance to some common topics appearing in the study of the world film genre, and, from a global perspective, takes China' s study of film genre as a part of the world's study of film genre so as to make its own contribution.
