利奇的新作《21世纪文学批评:理论复兴》对近三十多年来文学界反理论者的立场和观点进行了批驳,提出了一种“综合考量的批评性阅读”方式,评析了当代重要的理论家及其著作,并对理论的未来做了大胆的预测。在评介这部著作的基础上,本文指出,利奇并没有找到理论终结论的症结,相反,他把造成文学理论式微或批评方向偏离的现状看成是理论复兴的表征。他所推崇的文化批评不是理论复兴的标志,而是导致文学批评独立性丧失的根源之一,也为反理论者提供了口实。
Leech’s new book “Literary Criticism in the 21st Century: Revival of Theory” criticizes the positions and opinions of the anti-theorists in the literary circle in the past 30 years and puts forward a “comprehensive reading of critical reading” approach. Important contemporary theorists and their writings, and made a bold prediction of the future of the theory. On the basis of reviewing this work, this paper points out that Leach did not find the crux of the theory’s conclusion, on the contrary, he regarded the current situation of deviation from criticism or direction of literary theory as a sign of the revival of theory. The cultural criticism he espouses is not a mark of theoretical rejuvenation, but one of the causes of the loss of independence of literary criticism, and it also provides an argument for the anti-theorists.
