摘要: 2016年度的诺贝尔文学奖授予美国摇滚歌手和民谣诗人鲍勃 • 迪伦,令人倍感惊讶,尽管获奖者曾屡被推荐与提名。惊讶的潜在原因主要是迪伦的流行音乐艺术家身份,这与长期以来人们把诺奖与所谓主流严肃文学等同的意识密切相关。其实,以鲍勃 • 迪伦对当代文化的贡献、高度的成就和影响力而言,他获奖名至实归。就这一现象,本文从诗歌起源及原初特征、文学观念的历史变迁、文学与艺术的密切关系、大众文化的生命力等因素,说明迪伦获奖的积极意义,包括引发理论界关于文学或文学属性、功能及传播方式的思考。

Abstract: The Nobel Prize in Literature for 2016 has been awarded to Bob Dylan, an American rock singer and folk poet. It comes as a big surprise, even though the winner has been nominated repeatedly. The main reason for the surprise is because of Dylan's identity as a popular artist, since the Nobel Prize in Literature has long been closely associated with the so-called mainstream serious literature. As a matter of fact, Bob Dylan deserves the prize in every way in terms of his contribution to the contemporary culture, his great achievement and powerful influence. Regarding this phenomenon, this paper illustrates the positive significance of Dylan’s award from several aspects, including the origin and original features of poetry, the historical changes of literary concept, the close relationship between literature and art, the vitality of popular culture, etc. A discussion is also given to the world’s reflection on literature, or the attributes, function and mode of transmission of literature in the academic field triggered by Dylan’s award.

Keywords: Bob Dylan; popular culture; Nobel Prize in Literature; rock singer; Folk poets; poetry; musician
