解读后现代科幻小说《三体》的宇宙观 Interpretation on the cosmic views of The Three-Body Problem – a post-modern science fiction开题报告

1. 研究目的与意义（文献综述）

the most incomprehensible thing about the world is that itis comprehensible. the famous physicist einstein encapsulated this importantpiece of universe wisdom. under the help of advanced technology, compared withthe previous times, and developing civilization, we can vaguely feel andunderstand how this tangible but still mysterious three-dimensional globeworks. then the next step of exploring is to debouch from the known land. it isordinary for the residents of the earth to visualize the space unknown butliterally existed. after all, if a layfolk has passion to know more about theuniverse, he/she must pay much attention to getting precise instruments orbuilding complex knowledge base. and at the stage that official governmentcannot make a conclusion on universe civilization, even the education aboutthis issue is a terrible shortage, how can everyman build up their sustainable cosmicview under the influence of occasionally occurred inauthentic rumors?

as a prominent post-modern fiction, three body problemreceived great attention at the begining of the publishing, which depicts therise and fall of the earth and three body by presenting a lasting and cruel waramong civilizations. complicated theories including humanhistory, physics, astronomy, sociology and philosophy are naturally drilledinto readers. when it comes to readers, the scope of this work’s influence ismuch more wilder than other chinese modern science fictions. readers rangingfrom aerospace staff to white-collar workers pay much attention to think deeplyabout the practical significance of the fiction. but there are few professionalarticles about cosmic view of this fiction. many literary critics describe itas a milestone in chinese sci-fi literature. winning influenced internationalprizes is not the reason i hold the same viewpoint as critics, but the emergenceof the fiction provoking a national discussion that has never happened before. thisfiction provides readers a platform to express their imaginary thoughts emerged flashily before.

therefore, in my opinion, exploring the cosmic views of thethree-body problem, the representative of post-modern science fiction, providesa direction to understand what has happened before and what will happen in thefuture. it might not be true and even not to the point. but a set of completetheory about the development track of the universe makes it possible forastronomy enthusiasts to come up with more and more theories, and it attracts alarge amount of laymen to cultivate an interest and express their ideas. theway each people applies to understand the universe is of great significance toestablish a universe system.
