摘要：方英教授的新著《文学空间批评》对前沿的文学空间理论进行了系统探索。该著不仅追根溯源，厘清了文学空间批评的历史语境和理论语境，系统阐述了“文学空间研究”的发生、发展、主要论域和主要分支，考察了空间的主要类型，并在空间理论阐释与文本细读的有机结合中，分别讨论了空间与权力、空间与存在这两个前沿话题，结语还讨论了文学空间批评的研究范式和问题域，展现了文学空间研究的多重批评路径。该书既吸收、整合西方理论，又融合了方教授的论证与思考，是跨国界、跨语言的学术互动的典范，推动了文学空间理论的国际传播，也彰显出本土空间学者的理论自觉，并以其历史深度、跨学科视野、系统性及学理性，构建了一幅文学空间研究的宏阔图景。

Title: The International Communication of Spatial Literary Theory: A Review of Spatial Literary Criticism by Fang Ying
Abstract: Spatial Literary Criticism, a newly published academic work by professor Fang Ying, probes systematically into spatial literary studies, a cutting-edge field of literary studies. In this monograph, professor Fang not only untangles the historical and theoretical context of spatial literary criticism, but also systematically explores into the outset, evolution, main fields of discourse and branches of spatial literary studies as well as the main types of space. Moreover, through the combination of spatial theories and close reading of the text, Fang respectively discusses two cutting-edge topics: space and power, and space and existence. In addition, the conclusion focuses on the research paradigm and problematics of spatial literary criticism, presenting different approaches to literary criticism. As a whole, this book not only integrates Western spatial theories, but also incorporates Professor Fang’s reflections on space, serving as a model of transnational and interlingual academic interaction. It promotes the international communication of spatial literary theories as well as reflects Fang Ying’s theoretical self-awareness as a local spatial theorist. What’s more, it presents a grand scene of spatial literary criticism with the integration of historicalness, interdisciplinary perspective, systematicness and academic theoreticalness.
