作为雷蒙德·威廉斯文化唯物主义的核心概念，情感结构为解析文学传统与社会变迁提供了动态视角。自提出以来，情感结构历经流变，从文学批评工具逐步演变为文化分析范式，充当着连接个体经验与集体意识的方法论桥梁。威廉斯在其经典论著《乡村与城市》中以情感结构为引，通过英国田园诗歌探究英国文学传统中的城乡关系，一方面批判了传统城乡书写中城市进步主义与田园主义的城乡认知错位，另一方面揭示出田园诗歌中体现的资本主义社会下的城乡发展模式，并将此模式拓展至帝国与殖民地的关系中，最后，通过解构城乡对立的固化逻辑，城乡互动中的斗争性与拒绝分工、寻求新型合作的呼吁得到重新审视。威廉斯对情感结构的批评实践不仅突破了传统城乡叙事的局限性，更将社会经验从固化的意识形态中“溶解”，还原为流动的文化实践场域，为新时代中国社会破解城乡发展命题提供了批判性启示。

As the core concept of Raymond Williams’ cultural materialism, structures of feeling serve as a methodological bridge connecting individual experience and collective consciousness. In The Country and the City, Williams takes structures of feeling as a guide to explore the urban-rural relationship in British pastoral poetry. He criticizes the cognitive disjunction between urban progressivism and pastoralism in traditional urban-rural writing, while revealing the urban-rural development model under capitalism reflected in pastoral poetry and extending this model to the relationship between empires and colonies. Finally, by deconstructing the solidified logic of urban-rural opposition, he re-examines the militancy in urban-rural interaction and the appeal to reject division of labor and seek new forms of cooperation. Structures of feeling not only breaks through the limitations of traditional urban-rural narratives, but also dissolves social experience from solidified ideologies, providing critical insights for addressing urban-rural development issues in contemporary China.
