比较文学与区域研究的融合新生
——评《比较文学与区域研究：危机、整合与挑战》
王劭康（Wang Shaokang）
摘要：比较文学学科自十九世纪以来屡经挑战。当今社会的技术进步、政治经济变迁及文学媒介扩展使得比较文学面临复杂的新形势。在此背景下，关于研究范式、学科定位及权力结构的反思和批判不断涌现，使比较文学面临危机。但这一危机也推动了学科的不断发展。新近出版的《比较文学与区域研究：危机、整合与挑战》一书聚焦于这一状况，借助加亚特里·斯皮瓦克的后殖民理论，探讨如何解决比较文学的危机，并推动其与区域研究的融合，为“新比较文学”的未来展望提供了新的视角与可能性。

Title: The Reinvigoration Through Integration: A Review of Comparative Literature and Area Studies: Crises, Challenges, and Integration
Abstract: Since the 1900s the discipline of Comparative Literature has undergone numerous challenges. Today, technological advancements, shifts in the political economy, and the expansion of literary media have placed Comparative Literature in a complex new landscape. Against this backdrop, continuous reflections and critiques regarding research paradigms, disciplinary positioning, and power structures have precipitated a sense of crisis within the field. However, this crisis has also served as a catalyst for the discipline’s evolution. The recently published book, Comparative Literature and Area Studies: Crises, Challenges, and Integration（Chongqing University Press, 2014）, focuses on this predicament. Drawing on Gayatri Spivak’s postcolonial theory, it explores strategies to address the crisis in Comparative Literature and promote its integration with Area Studies, thereby offering new perspectives and possibilities for envisioning the future of “New Comparative Literature.”
Keywords: Comparative Literature crisis; Area Studies; Gayatri Spivak; disciplinary transformation
