ABSTRACT This paper proposes to describe the reception of literary texts with the help of attractors, a concept developed in chaos theory. The main thesis is that attractors can describe literary texts — especially highly fragmented and open contemporary texts — in a more differentiated way than reception theory does. With the concept of attractors, phenomena come into focus that only resonate on the margins of other models of reception. An analysis of the famous Latin American novel Los detectives salvajes written by Roberto Bolaño shows how incongruous, possible, unsettled and alleged meanings work together and create an impression of dispersion and convergence of meaning in the text. This can clearly be shown by an analysis organized around attractors.

摘要 本文提出借助吸引子来描述文学文本的接收，吸引子是混沌理论中发展起来的一个概念。主要论点是，吸引子可以以比接受理论更差异化的方式描述文学文本——尤其是高度碎片化和开放的当代文本。有了吸引子的概念，现象就会成为焦点，而这些现象只会在其他接收模型的边缘产生共鸣。对罗伯托·博拉尼奥 (Roberto Bolaño) 所著的著名拉丁美洲小说《洛杉矶侦探萨尔瓦吉斯》的分析表明，不协调、可能、未解决和所谓的含义如何共同作用，并在文本中产生一种分散和收敛的印象。这可以通过围绕吸引子组织的分析清楚地显示出来。
