【副题名】从布尔迪厄文化社会学看漫威超级英雄电影

【摘要】 21世纪,一种新的电影类型--超级英雄电影以其绚丽的画面及刺激的故事情节受到了观众的追捧,并且给电影制作者及发行商带来了巨额利润。漫威因推出《钢铁侠》、《美国队长》、《复仇者联盟》等超级英雄电影在好莱坞赢得了一席之位。笔者认为这类以超级英雄为题材的电影成功的关键在于电影中所表达的个人英雄主义、救世主义和爱国主义等价值观与美国人自身的核心价值观相符合。而以上三种价值观又是超级英雄主义的核心内容。所以超级英雄电影在21世纪的流行,意味着超级英雄主义在美国的兴起。皮埃尔?布尔迪厄是法国著名的社会学家,他对文学、语言、文化等都有深透研究。尤其是他的文化社会学为文化研究提供了新视角。本论文以布尔迪厄文化社会学为理论基础,以漫威超级英雄电影为切入点来研究作为文化资本的超级英雄主义的内涵、超级英雄电影中对美国价值观的承传,以及符号暴力和场域等问题。本文由绪论、正文和结语三部分组成。第一部分是绪论,对本文的研究目的、意义及主要内容等进行总体的概括。第二部分为正文,共由五章组成,第二章对布尔迪厄社会学主要概念进行了详细的阐释;第三章归纳了美国的超级英雄主义内涵;第四章主要阐述了美国人的习性与漫威电影中超级英雄主义的关系;第五章借用布尔迪厄文化社会学理论指出,在观看漫威超级英雄电影过程中,观众无意识地接受电影所传达的信息,即文化资本的符号暴力功能得到了实现。第六章试图构建一个场域,以期对超级英雄主义的运作有更深入、系统的了解。第三部分是结语。通过布尔迪厄文化社会学理论对超级英雄主义的研究,为文化资源向资本的转化提供了指导方法。另外,由于文化资本在转化过程中产生了符号暴力,所以大众在消费文化产品,尤其是电影时,应以辩证的态度来思考电影所传达的价值观念而不是全盘接受。

【Abstract】 Since the 21 st century, superhero movie, as a new type of movie, has been popular among the audience for its gorgeous frames and exciting plots. This type of movie earns huge profits for the movie producers and distributors. Marvel has won its important place in the Hollywood for producing such superhero movies as Iron Man, Captain America, The Avengers. The key point why superhero movies make a hit is that the values expressed in movies, such as individualistic heroism, salvationism and patriotism, are accordant with American core values. Furthermore, the three values mentioned above are coincidentally the essence of the super heroism. So the superhero movies’ popularity during the 21 st century means super heroism has sprung up around the United States.Pierre Bourdieu is a famous French sociologist, who specializes in many fields like literature, language, culture. Above all, his theory of cultural sociology has provided a new perspective for the cultural study. Taking Bourdieu’s cultural sociology as theoretical foundation and Marvel superhero movies as breakthrough point, the thesis explores the connotations of super heroism, the inheritance of American core values in Marvel superhero, the symbolic violence, and the field of superhero movie.This thesis consists of three parts, the introduction, the main body and the conclusion. The first part states the purpose, the significance and the main contents of this thesis. The second part is the main body which includes five chapters. Chapter 2 does an explanation in details of the main concepts of Bourdieu’s cultural sociology. Chapter 3 concludes the connotations of the American super heroism. Chapter 4 mainly discusses the relationship between American habitus and super heroism. Chapter 5 uses Bourdieu’s cultural sociology to point out that when they are enjoying the Marvel superhero movies, the audience accept the information expressed in the movies, which embodies that the symbolic violence function of cultural capital has been achieved. Chapter 6 tries to construct a field, expecting to get a more indepth and systematic understanding in the operation of the super heroism. The last part is the conclusion. This part provides supervising method for the transformation from resource to capital with studying the super heroism through Bourdieu’s cultural sociology. Besides, symbolic violence occurs in the process of transformation of cultural capital, therefore, it is necessary for people to adopt a dialectical and critical attitude towards the values expressed in the cultural products, especially the movies, rather than indiscriminately accept them totally.
