The Perspective Of Language Theory Of Literary Theory

In the information age, with the rapid development of modern new communication technologies, in particular, the growing popularity of computers and the internet and invasion, boundaries of classical humanities have undergone profound changes, accompanying classical meaning and value structure inevitable deconstruction. The subject of Hillis Miller on "The Death of Literature," let people re-examine what meaning of this issue on literature is. Miller thinks that in the present the premise of serious thinking about literature is a non logical argument:the end of the literature is coming, meanwhile, literature is eternal and universal, In the "On Literature", professor Hillis Miller said "Literature is the special usage of language", Every period, there are corresponding dominant use ways. Literature may be a period of decline, but it will never die. Literature is an special use of words or other symbols, at any era of the human culture, literature exists in various forms. Literature is a kind of common usage that can be regarded as an ability of literary symbol, which is also a kind of mechanism that is conditioned by the history of specific culture. "Literature is the art of language", Literature, language and practice always been the three elements of the theory keywords. From the perspective of language research, to examine many theories and related problems, it can be said that have found the key to literary studies.Tracing the history of linguistics, in the 20th century, before linguistics "revolution" happened, traditional Linguistics insisted that the tool theory of language, believing that language is an external reality or psychological imitation or reaction. The main idea of this period of literature is a form of the language concept, literature through the imitation of the world to convey the contents of the literature and the author’s feelings, showing that the classical realism and romanticism. From ancient Greece to the 19th century, the entire Western literary criticism roughly divided into two paths:theory of reflection, literature as the reaction of the outside world and facsimile; performance theory, literature as an expression of spiritual and emotional. Although the two ideas are utterly different, if from the perspective of uses of language in literature, it can find the all roads lead to Rome, that is, they all emphasized the function of language of description. Literature is considered for something (the external world or the internal world) referent, this is a view of the daily understanding of language. Thus, literary criticism and literary theory are beyond language for research and attention, since the 20th century, the development of literary theory is the corresponding change in response to this problem, we see their theoretical perspectives move from outside to the text itself. This profound change is closely related to "linguistic revolution", new criticism, russian formalism and structuralist poetics and deconstruction, without exception, the focus position in the text and the language category.Their criticism about the text, the structure of the text itself, literariness, all can be summarized as the ontology of language. Similarly,focus on the text, another path was bakhtin’s theory of discourse and cultural studies that pioneered by Raymond Williams, They found a picture of society in the literature including power struggle. In their view, literature was seen as a kind of reaction, then not passive but active dynamic process. The above three literary under the view of languages theory has its reasonable, but there are obvious shortcomings and deficiencies, they are manifestations of some aspect of the language describing function, or reality or emotional or language itself. In addition to narrative features, are there other functions?On this issue, J.L. Austin gives a reasonable and affirmative answer, as a representative of American and British daily language school,in addition to the function of describing, he proposed speech act theory,developing a language of "performative" function,while saying something with words,it also doing something at the same time. Speech Act Theory for the 20th century has a profound impact on the literary world and inspired,it changed the relationship among the three elements, the literature, language, practice. Language becomes the most basic elements, bringing change of form of the whole theory. Research focus shifted from what is expressed in literature and literary significance of the structure to how to act and how to act on the world. After Derrida, Miller and Eagleton, who on speech act theory of transformation and utilization, to reveal the the concept of literature under speech act theory, and put forward a kind of ethical way of reading, speech act theory has been applied in the field of literary studies, showing a strong theoretical glow, which opened another door leading to the literature of the Akria window.And as another ordinary language school representatives, from pursuing development of "logical language" into the use of the everyday language, Wittgenstein said the task of philosophy is the concept of study rather than the concept of construction, Professor Chen Jiaying pointed out, one of the main task of philosophy is the "logic". That is used to clarify the meaning and usage of concepts and words, so that we can talk about a particular issue correctly. After the fire of late wittgenstein’s aesthetics lighting, we see that some vast space of thoughts on literature.When miller put forward the proposition that the death of literature, theory of literature problems once again inevitably become "Achilles heel", in the present literary field. This paper attempts to review from the perspective of language, theory of literature in different languages under the concept, I hope from a dynamic point of view, opening a new dimension between language and literature, realizating of literature from beyond words to deeds intended to do and linguistic analysis of "Combination",attamptting towards to the value of literature at present.
