英国旋涡主义是一场现代视觉艺术的激进运动,也是20世纪西方先锋文学浪潮中的一股急流。这一先锋文艺运动长期不受重视,国内相关研究成果更是寥寥无几。重新审视旋涡主义,可以对一段被遮蔽的历史起到拨云见日的作用,也有助于重新认识英美现代主义在一战前的发轫过程。本文旨在追溯旋涡主义兴起的时代背景与文化氛围,评述旋涡主义的先锋文艺主张与《狂飙》的先锋特征,探析这一先锋文艺运动的文学影响及其局限性。 British vortexism is a radical movement in modern visual arts and a torrent in the wave of Western avant-garde literature in the 20th century. This pioneering literary movement has long been neglected, and the domestic research results are very few. A reexamining of Vortexism can play a role in finding a way out of the shadow of a hidden history, and helps to re-understand the process of Anglo-American modernism before the First World War. The purpose of this paper is to trace the background and cultural atmosphere of the rise of the Vortanism, comment on the vanguard vanguard literary ideas and the vanguard characteristics of “Hurricane” and probe into the literary influence and limitations of this vanguard literary movement.
