Abstract The article seeks to establish a dialog, from a semiotic point of view, with the grand cartography of methods in literary criticism proposed by Prof. Zhang Jiang in his famous essay “Imposed interpretation.” While acknowledging that Prof. Zhang Jiang identifies the most crucial weak points of the semiotic methodology, the article nevertheless takes these criticisms as occasions to improve the approach of semiotics, as regards especially the following oppositions: diagrammatic over-schematization versus quest for a more judicious application of the method; overenthusiastic adoption of mathematical formulas versus cautious cross-fertilization between humanities and scientific thought; frantic pursuance of theoretical uniformity versus humble acceptance of literary idiosyncrasies; fundamentalist proclamation of the self-reliance of the text versus thoughtful consideration of the evident links between the text and its contexts. This new theoretical approach, wherein traditional semiotics improves itself in dialog with Prof. Zhang Jiang’s criticisms, is exemplified with reference to the concept of interpretive fidelity, which is categorized into different levels and dimensions of adhesion between the textual structure and the discourse of the meta-language interpreting it: hi-fi, low-fi, no-fi, and wi-fi interpretation.

摘要本文试图从符号学的角度，与张江教授在其著名论文“强加于人的解释”中提出的文学批评方法的大图建立对话。在承认张江教授确定了符号学方法论的最关键弱点的同时，本文还是将这些批评作为改进符号学方法的契机，特别是针对以下反对意见：图解式的过度趋向与寻求更明智的做法该方法的应用；过度积极地采用数学公式与人文与科学思想之间的谨慎交叉交流；对理论统一性的狂热追求与对文学特质的谦逊接受；对文本自力更生的原教旨主义宣称与对文本及其上下文之间显而易见的联系的深思熟虑的思考。这种新的理论方法，其中传统的符号学在与张江教授的批评对话中得以改善，并以解释保真度的概念为例，该概念分为文本结构和元数据话语之间不同层次和不同程度的粘附。 -语言解释：高保真，低保真，无保真和wi-fi解释。
