摘要
近年来,伴随着网络文化的兴起,历史穿越小说盛行于中国网络空间,并越来越受到学术界的关注。《新宋》和《宰执天下》是两部最受评论关注也是点击率最高的网络历史穿越小说,两书的"穿越者"以社会改革和宪制设计的方式深入介入和改造历史。《新宋》展现了1980年代以来中国改革开放的"启蒙知识分子"对于"商业、法治和联邦制"的启蒙主义的改革方案和宪制设计。《宰执天下》展现了21世纪中国"工业党"以提高生产力和科技水平为核心的改革方案,以及"虚君共和"的宪制设计。两书并没有完全超越当下中国乃至西方世界对于民族国家和世界秩序的"主流"想象。在穿越与历史和解的意义上,值得注意两书的儒家乌托邦想象,甚至社会主义类型的乌托邦想象。
Time-travelling historical fiction is a new genre of online literature that has become immensely popular with Chinese internet users, and generate more and more research interest in the academia. Xin Song(The New Song Dynasty) and Zaizhi Tianxia(Overseeing All Under Heaven) are two novels of this genre. Both are given much attention and are among the most popular choices. Both feature protagonists who are deeply involved in remaking history through social reforms and constitutional design. Xin Song shows how enlightenment intellectuals of China’s Reform and Opening-up since 1980 s offer an enlightenmentalist solution to reform in commerce, rule of law and federal system, while designing a new constitution. Zaizhi Tianxia depicts the ways in which China’s Industrial Party of the 21 st century initiates reforms centered on improving productivity and technology, and designs a constitutional monarchy. These novels are still confined to the mainstream imagination of nation states and world order in China and the West. In the sense of reconciling history and fiction, both books should be noted for their imagination of a Confucian utopia or even a socialist utopia.
