中文摘要:

      “科学共同体”是灾难叙事体裁的科幻电影中不可或缺的元素，被塑造成多种形象。作为科学传播的重要元素之一，“科学共同体”的电影形象影响着科学家、社会公众、大众传媒对于其丰富内涵的准确理解。本文从比较叙事学的视阈探讨“科学共同体”形象在科幻电影中的建构，以西方电影史为鉴，聚焦于其从“徒有虚名的松散组织”“阻碍科技进步的守旧者”到“救世主” 等多重身份的转变，以当代中国科幻电影代表作《流浪地球 2》为落脚点，揭示其东方文化印记和民族特色，进而指出，科幻电影中的“科学共同体”形象有助于加强科学精神与科技伦理的传播，有利于坚定人类对于自身在历史进程中的主导地位的信心，更是未来反思与重构这一群体的重要素材。

英文摘要:

      The scientific community，an integral part of Sci-Fi films featuring disaster narratives，has been constructed as multiple images. As a key element in science communication，the images of the scientific community in films exert a tremendous impact on how accurately scientists，the public and mass media interpret its connotations. This study explores the image construction of the scientific community in Sci-Fi films from the perspective of comparative narratology. It starts with a survey of Western film history，focusing on the shifting roles of the scientific community，including a loosely bound organization in name only，an old school hindering the advancement of science and technology，and an almighty savior. It then analyzes The Wandering Earth II，a great representative of contemporary Chinese Sci-Fi films，unveiling its imprints of Oriental culture as well as Chinese features. Based on this comparative study，it further points out that the images of the scientific community in films can boost the communication of scientific spirit and scientific ethics，strengthen the confidence of the human race as the determinant of historical progression，and provide valuable materials for the reflection upon and reconstruction of this community in the future.
