如果说在传统批评中，文本只是以扁平形态存在，只展现出它百变面孔中的一二面，那么，互文性批评则可以将文本变成一个圆雕，无数变换不定的角度可望形成千百种阐释结果。这样，互文性批评便彻底改变了传统批评试图寻求某种固定不变的、真理性阐释的本质主义倾向，极大地释放出文本的信息含量和阐释者的创造性。 本文从互文性角度切入中国现代历史文学研究，在深化理解互文性理论的基础上，展开对中国现代历史文学文本的互文性研究，从古与今、中与西、男性与女性等多个维度编织起中国现代历史文学的互文性研究网络。论文共分四部分： 第一章从历史文学与时代的互文关系入手，阐述“现实触发→寻找历史文本→现实张扬”这一历史创作过程的可行性，并以具体文本为例深入剖析了“古为今用”中“个人心声的曲折表达”和“影射与寓言”两种表现方式。 第二章分析中国现代历史文学与古代原文本的互文关系。历史素材要提炼成为历史小说，作家就必须在遵守历史真实原则的基础上超越原文本的束缚，文中以孔子题材为代表的古代圣贤文本和以《水浒传》为代表的古代名著文本为代表的文本系列进行互文分析，探索作家对同一题材作品的不同艺术处理。 第三章分析中国现代历史文学创作中男性叙事文本与女性叙事文本的互文。对女性历史人物、神话传说的挖掘与改写是现代历史文学叙述的一个重要内容，本章着重对女性历史形象的重构和对同一题材男性/女性作家不同叙事策略进行互文分析，高度重视对时代历史背景的揭示。 第四章以鲁迅的《故事新编》与欧洲梅尼普文体的比较研究为例，对跨越时空的中国现代历史文学文本与外国原文本的互文关系进行充分论证和细致剖析。

In traditional critics , text lie in a flat form which only can show one or two dimensions. Intertextual critics make texts round sculptures, which we can acquire different results from different perspectives. Thus, intertextual critics radically changed traditional critics’ essentialism tendency, and it can release the information content of the text and inspire the interpreter’s creativity . The article tries to probe into the modern Chinese historical literature from the point of intertextuality, and weave the intertextual network from the ancient and modern , east and west, men and women and many other dimensions. The dissertation consists of four parts. The first chapter elaborates on the mutual relations between historical literature and the era, which make the history and the reality mix together. The second chapter analyses the intertextuality between modern historical literature and ancient text, and lay stress on the artistic conception and poetic expression . The authors concentrate their main emotion on the works besides the historical facts. They fabricate and rewrite history boldly, penetrate into the mind of historical characters to portray carefully . The third chapter analyses the intertextuality between narrative text and female narrative text, rewriting female historical figures is an important part of modern literature. The fourth chapter studies the new edition of stories’s reform on traditional history fiction . It opens a way for western fresh air to blow into the relative closing historical space.
