摘　　要：本文从社会学视角（而不是形式主义视角）重点考察了诗歌运动和诗歌体制的一些意外次生品。通过反思美国诗歌当前面临的三种困难诗——概念诗、具有后文学色彩的微型诗、平民主义诗歌,本文发现,摆在我们面前的是对基本范式的一种限制：个体诗人作品的完整性与运用历史方法考察作品文本的优势。我们所面对的情形是,与人口结构相关事物的范式变化不定。当前,广泛发表作品的诗人人数众多,我们已经无法跟踪他们;这同时也构成另一个新的挑战,即：他们都在相互跟踪,有可能完全丧失历史感,而当下感提升到了一个未曾想象的高度,而这样可能会使历史烟消云散。如何重视历史、尊重历史、寻回历史而又不陷入少数大腕级人物设定的旧范式？这正是本文试图回答的问题。This article, focused on the unintentional byproducts of poetic movements and institu- tions, is more sociological than formalist in orientation. When reflecting upon the three challenges to American poetry today--the conceptual poetry, the postliterary micropoetries, and the populist poetry, I sense looming before us a hmit to basic paradigms： the integrity of an individual poet＇ s work and the virtue of an historical approach to any body of work. What we face today is a paradigm-changing state of affairs having to do with demographics. There are now so many widely published poets that it is no longer feasible to keep track of them. The challenge is that they are very busy keeping track of one another, but at the risk of losing the historical sense altogether. The sense of the contemporary is enhanced to a previously unimaginable degree, while the past risks evaporation. But how is the past to be honored, respected and retrieved without resorting to the old paradigm of a handful of titanic figures？ This is the question I attempt to answer in this ar- ticle.
