本文选题：伊恩·麦克尤恩 + 《赎罪》　；参考：《四川外国语大学》2014年硕士论文

【摘要】：伊恩·麦克尤恩（1948-）是当代英国文坛中最杰出的作家之一。自初登文坛以来，就一直以精湛的技巧和大胆的写作风格而闻名于世。《赎罪》作为他迄今为止最具影响的作品，完美的体现了他的写作技巧和对人性的洞见。在《赎罪》中，作者在书写历史的同时，运用了多角度，“中国式套盒”以及自省等写作方法，因此小说被贴上“历史编纂元小说的”标签。本文以琳达·哈琴的“历史编纂元小说”为理论依据，分析了麦克尤恩在《赎罪》中所运用的后现代历史编写和元小说叙事策略，指出作者在建构历史的同时，也对历史书写提出质疑。因此，作者对历史的回访并非是对其情有独钟，而是以评判的态度在重返过程中对人性的洞察和反思。论文主要分为三个部分。引言部分介绍了作者的文学成就和《赎罪》的国内外研究现状，同时也对论文的理论依据做出了阐释。主体部分分为三章。第一章论述了《赎罪》挑战官方历史的权威。在谈及有关第二次世界大战以及当代英国等历史阶段时，作者分别采用了不同的历史版本，，将这宏观历史改写为个人的“小写历史”版本，揭露了传统历史编写中所隐含的意识形态问题。第二章论述《赎罪》质疑了历史编写的可靠性。分析了多角度和不可靠的叙述者这两种叙事方式，结合文章凸显的“中国式套盒“结构，否定了完全再现客观历史的可能性。第三章论述了《赎罪》颠覆传统人文主义概念的尝试。一统化和绝对性的概念开始让位于多元化，小说中绝对的二元对立开始瓦解，留下的只是悬而未决的矛盾。最后，结论部分指出：历史和小说都是人类建构之物，在奋力尝试建构之时，人们需要对此进行反思。
[Abstract]:Ian McEwan is one of the most outstanding writers in contemporary English literature. Since he first appeared in the literary world, he has been famous for his exquisite skill and bold writing style. As his most influential work so far, Atonement perfectly embodies his writing skills and insight into human nature. In "Atonement", the author uses various writing methods, such as "Chinese box" and "introspection", while writing history, so the novel is labeled as "historical compilation of meta-fiction". Based on Linda Harqin's Historical Codification of Metafiction, this paper analyzes the post-modern historical writing and the narrative strategies of meta-fiction used by McEwan in Atonement, and points out that the author is constructing history at the same time. It also questioned the writing of history. Therefore, the author's return visit to history is not a special love for him, but an insight and reflection on human nature in the process of returning with an attitude of judgment. The paper is divided into three parts. The introduction introduces the author's literary achievements and the present research situation of Atonement at home and abroad, and explains the theoretical basis of the thesis. The main part is divided into three chapters. Chapter one deals with the challenge to the authority of official history. When talking about the historical stages of World War II and contemporary Britain, the author has adopted different historical versions, rewriting this macroscopic history into a personal version of "lowercase history". It exposes the ideological problems implied in the traditional history writing. Chapter two states that Atonement questions the reliability of historical writing. This paper analyzes the two narrative methods of multi-angle and unreliable narrator, and denies the possibility of completely reproducing the objective history by combining the "Chinese style box" structure highlighted in the article. Chapter three discusses the attempt to subvert the concept of traditional humanism in Atonement. The concepts of unification and absoluteness began to give way to pluralism, and the absolute duality in the novel began to disintegrate, leaving only unresolved contradictions. Finally, the conclusion points out that both history and novel are human beings' construction, and people should reflect on them when trying hard to construct them.
