项目摘要

Under the theme of "Why we cannot live without narratives : the emergence, development and ending of narratives in multimedia conditions," we held during three years various lectures and research meetings (21 times), one international symposium, two field surveys, six panel discussions. Our research was divided into two lines, one about theoretical problems, the other about case studies. The theoretical problems researched includes the definition(s) of narratives, the conditions necessary for the existence of narratives, the ontology of narratives etc. We didn't treat narratives in a narrow and strict sense, but tried to clarify their nature in a broader multimedia and transdisciplinary context. Our case studies include many crosscultural and transdisciplinary issues, but if roughly classified, they include four researches on literature, five on media, three on movies, two on fine arts, two on cultural institutions, one on consumerism, one on theater, one on economics, one on psychology. In each studies, we observed radical struggle between grand (hi)stories and small stories, and in recent years a great many small (hi)stories play great roles collectively, though not a few grand (hi)stories still survives and are about to be influential again. Our research, consisted of both theoretical and case studies, was very effective in making clear the complicated functions of narratives, and offer new and heuristic viewpoints about the crosscultural and multimedia aspects of them.

以“为什么我们的生活不能没有叙事：多媒体条件下叙事的出现、发展和终结”为主题，我们在三年内举办了各种讲座和研究会议（21次）、一次国际研讨会、两次实地调查、六次小组讨论。讨论。我们的研究分为两条线，一条是理论问题，一条是案例研究。研究的理论问题包括叙事的定义、叙事存在的必要条件、叙事的本体论等。我们没有从狭义、严格的意义上来看待叙事，而是试图在更广泛的意义上阐明其本质。多媒体和跨学科背景。我们的案例研究涉及很多跨文化、跨学科的问题，但如果粗略分类的话，包括四项文学研究、五项媒体研究、三项电影研究、两项美术研究、两项文化机构研究、一项消费主义研究、一项戏剧研究、一项关于戏剧研究的研究。经济学，一门心理学。在每项研究中，我们都观察到大故事和小故事之间的激烈斗争，近年来，大量的小故事共同发挥着巨大的作用，尽管不少大故事仍然存在并即将消失。再次发挥影响力。我们的研究包括理论和案例研究，非常有效地阐明了叙事的复杂功能，并就其跨文化和多媒体方面提供了新的启发性观点。
