20世纪90年代以来，随着市场经济的不断深入，大众文化和消费文化的日益兴起，以及新的大众媒体的广泛使用，文学的自主性在一定程度上成为可能，并得到不断强化。在这种背景下，一方面，官方奖的权威在弱化，并且由于屡受质疑而引起众多批评，批评声音在大众媒体的放大下也成了固定的文化热点现象；另一方面，文学评奖的空间被打破，出现了众多的“民间”评奖，对官方奖形成一定程度的挑战。对新世纪以来文学评奖具体而微的研究，会发现作为不同类型的文学评奖，自身其实有很多“矛盾”之处，正是这些矛盾点，折射了文学奖所包含的权力、市场以及文学自主性间的博弈关系。同时也反映出文学评奖新的功能，即文学评奖作为“文学媒介”的功能得到实质的发展和丰富以及文学评奖作为“文学精英”思想实践活动的一种可能载体。论文共分五个部分：前言，主要对国内外对于文学评奖的研究做一综述，并指出以场域理论的视角透视文学评奖的意义和价值。第一章，概述国内文学评奖的前世今生，即1978年以来的系列评奖的特点及作用和新世纪以来文学评奖的分类、特点。第二章，具体分析国内各类文学奖的“矛盾”之处。官方奖，审美及市场化因素成为权力的策略；民间奖，以媒体为主办方的，市场和权力因素为“审美”提供某种保证；以民间组织为主办方的，因缺少市场因素的推力，文学奖项作为“媒介”的作用较为薄弱；以期刊为主办方的，过于倚重市场因素，往往昙花一现。第三章，各类文学评奖的“矛盾”，其实折射出文学自主性、权力与市场间的博弈，同时也反映出文学评奖功能的扩大以及对于文学带来的影响。结语，通过对新世纪以来文学评奖的分析，可以发现文学评奖较之以前饱含更复杂的权力关系，在新的环境下，一种对于文学、文学评奖发展都有利的评奖可能是一种平衡各种因素的复合型奖项。

Since 1990s, with the continuously deepened market economy, emerging popular culture and consumer culture as well as the extensive use of new mass media, in a certain degree, the literature autonomy becomes possible, and can be constantly enhanced. In this context, on the one hand, the authority of the official awards has been weakened and caused frequent doubts with extensive criticism. The criticism voice is amplified by the mass media, becoming a fixed hot cultural phenomenon. On the other hand, the space of literary awards is broken. Many folk awards have emerged, posing certain challenges to the official awards. Clear and concrete research into literary awards in the new century will find that different types of literary awards embody many "contradictions". These contradictions have reflected a game relation between the power, the market and the literature autonomy embodied in the literary awards. Besides, they also indicate new functions of literary awards, that is, the function of literary awards, as "literary medium", is substantially developed and enriched. Literary awards become a possible carrier of the "literary elite" thinking activity.The paper is divided into five parts: the introduction mainly overviews studies on literary awards at home and abroad and points out the significance and value of the perspective of field theory of literary awards. The first chapter overviews the history and present situation of China literature awards, that is, since 1978, features and the roles of a series of awards since 1978 and categories and characteristics of literary awards in the new century. In Chapter two, the paper specifically analyzes "contradiction" of types of domestic literary awards. For official awards, aesthetic and market factors have become strategies of power; for folk award, those hosted by the media can take advantage of market and power factors to provide assurance for "aesthetics". Those hosted by folk organizations lack the push of market factors. For these folk awards, the "media" function of literary awards is relatively weak; those hosted by journals, as they show over-reliance on market forces, are often short-lived. In Chapter three, "contradictions" of various literary awards, in fact, not only reflect the contest between the literature autonomy, the power and the market but also reflect the expansion of functions of literary awards as well as the impact of literature. The conclusion, through the analysis of literary awards in the new century, the paper finds a more complex power relation embodied in literary awards than ever before. In the new environment, the award beneficial to the development of the literary and literary awards should possibly be a complex award coordinated all factors.
