近年来,中国文化“走出去”的影响力不断扩大,在全球文化多元化发展日益兴盛的背景下,中国文化译研网(CCTSS)联合中国作家协会《小说选刊》杂志社,启动“新世纪中国当代作家、作品海外传播数据库”项目,将100位中国当代优秀作家的简介、代表作品以及展示作家风采的短视频翻译为10种语言,集结成1000张中国作家名片向全球推介。千张“作家名片”将鲜明地向世界宣告:我是中国作家,我在进行中国创作。
此种形式和规模是中国故事走向世界的一大创新,会让世界更加全面、客观、公正地了解中国优秀作家作品,同时也是打通中国文化走向世界的“最后一公里”。
李元胜,男,1963年生8月出生于四川省武胜县。1981年起开始诗歌写作,2000年起开始田野考察和自然随笔创作。1983年从重庆大学毕业后,担任《时代信报》副总编辑、重庆报业集团图书公司总经理、新女报时尚传媒集团董事长、总编辑。现为重庆文学院专业作家、重庆市作协副主席、中国作协诗歌委员会委员。代表作品有诗集《无限事》,诗歌《我想和你虚度时光》《栅栏的另一边》,组诗《天色将晚》以及长篇小说《城市玩笑》等。获得过中国好诗歌奖、十月文学奖等奖项,诗集《无限事》获得第六届鲁迅文学奖诗歌奖。
李元胜说:“写作是人生的避风港,更是暸望塔。”到九十年代中期,他形成了独特的个人风格,视野广阔,诗风清丽脱俗。除诗歌外,他还作有小说。1995年,长篇小说《城市玩笑》获重庆“五个一”工程奖。另外,十多年的田野考察重新塑造了他的写作。2007年他的博物摄影随笔集《昆虫之美》出版,入选新闻出版总署向全国青少年推荐的百佳读物。
《无限事》是2012年出版的精选集,涵盖了诗人从1986年至2012年的佳作。鲁迅文学奖诗歌奖的颁奖词说,“李元胜有着开阔的精神向度,善于以直觉贯通感性和理性,在日常化的事物和场景中揭示生活和人性的复杂内涵。他的诗安静、内敛,具有考究的结构感、叙事性和音乐性,跳跃性强又具内在逻辑,语言干净、洗练,体现着优雅的诗情和活泼的思力。”李元胜在《我想和你虚度时光》中这样写道:“我想和你虚度时光/比如低头看鱼/比如把茶杯留在桌子上/离开/浪费它们好看的阴影/我还想连落日一起浪费/比如散步/一直消磨到星光满天”。在如今快节奏的现代生活中,“虚度时光”作为一种生活态度,唤起了很多人的共鸣。该诗引发网上网下广泛传播,并被谱曲作成同名歌曲。“李元胜说,《无限事》更凝重、更理性,《我想和你虚度时光》更轻巧、更感性,更像是抒情小品。”《栅栏的另一边》获首届“中国好诗歌”奖。诗人说:“这一生,是读旧了的剧本/这一年,只有衰老略有心意/它们来了,我伸出了手/中间隔着我的身体,这古老的栅栏”。诗人将自己的身体比喻为栅栏,十分新奇也十分深刻。当诗人想和古老的文化、古老的时光握手言欢时,衰老的身体却成为了阻隔交流的栅栏。
2017年李元胜发表的组诗《天色将晚》获得了2017年“陈子昂年度诗人奖”。颁奖辞提到:李元胜的《天色将晚(组诗)》表现了人与自然万物之间的交流,在某种程度上揭示出了世界的复杂和人性的真相;并且能以直觉的方式走向对事物的人生的感悟和认知,充满知性因素。语言自然天成,涉笔成趣,有一种无技巧的迹象。

Li Yuansheng
Li Yuansheng was born in August 1963 in Wusheng County, Sichuan Province. He began writing poetry in 1981 and began fieldwork and natural essay writing in 2000. After graduating from Chongqing University in 1983, he served as deputy editor-in-chief of Times and Truth News, general manager of Chongqing Newspaper Group Book Co., Ltd., chairman and editor-in-chief of New Women‘s Fashion Media Group. He is currently a professional writer at Chongqing Literature College, a vice chairman of the Chongqing Writers Association, and a member of the China Writers Association Poetry Committee. Representative works include the poetry collections Infinity, the poems I Want to Waste Time with You, Other Side of the Fence, the poem series It’s Getting Late, the novel Urban Jokes and so on. He has won awards such as the China Good Poetry Award and the October Literature Award. The poem Infinity won the 6th Lu Xun Literature Award Poetry Prize.
Li Yuansheng says: “Writing is a safe haven in life. It is a watchtower.” By the mid-1990s, he had developed a unique personal style with a broad vision and refined poetry. In addition to poetry, he has also written novels. In 1995, the novel Urban Jokes won Chongqing’s “Five Ones”Engineering Award. In addition, more than a decade of field trips has reshaped his writing. In 2007, his photographic collection of essays entitled The Beauty of Insects was published and was selected as one of the top 100 best books recommended by the General Administration of Press and Publication for youth in the country.
Infinity is a collection published in 2012 that covers thepoet’s best work from 1986 to 2012. The awarding speech of the Lu Xun Literature Award Poetry Prize stated: “Li Yuansheng has an open mind and is good at intuitively perceiving emotions and rationality, revealing the complex connotations of life and humanity in everyday things and scenes. His poems are quiet and reserved, have an elegant structure, narrative, and musicality with a jumpy plot, which remains intrinsically logical. The language is clean and tidy, embodying elegant poetic and lively thinking.” Li Yuansheng wrote in I Want to Waste Time with You: “I want to waste time with you / look down at the fish / leave the tea cups on the table / leave / waste their good-looking shadows / I would also like to waste the sunset together / such as walking / until the stars fill the sky.”
In today’s fast-paced modern life, “wasting away time”, as an attitude towards life, evoked the resonance of many people. The poem was spread widely online and offline, and was made into a song of the same name. “Infinity is more dignified and more rational. I Want to Waste Time with You is lighter and more emotional, and it is more like a lyrical piece.”Li Yuansheng said. The Other Side of the Fence won the first “China Poem”award. The poet said: “This life is an old play script / this year, only getting old appeals / they have come, I stretched out my hand / in between my body, this ancient fence.” The poet uses a fence as a metaphor for his body, which is very novel and profound. When a poet wants to shake hands and talk cheerfully with ancient cultures and ancient times, the aging body becomes a fence that blocks communication.
In 2017, Li Yuansheng’s group poem entitled It’s Getting Late won the Chen Ziang Annual Poet Award in 2017. The award remarks mentioned that the poem shows the communication between man and nature, revealing to a certain degree the complexity of the world and the truth of human nature; and that one can move toward perception and cognition of things in life in an intuitive manner, and is full of intellectual factors. The language is natural, the writing is interesting, and there is a sign of effortlessness.
