【摘要】:著名的犹太裔美国作家索尔·贝娄对社会、文化和人文主义的深刻关注贯穿于他的写作生涯。贝娄敏锐观察到当代社会过度的自我中心主义和自我封闭,他在作品中常借助犹太伦理反对二元对立,提倡友爱政治。因此,贝娄笔下的大部分主人公在小说开始都会遭遇异化,对自我和社会缺乏准确认识。他们常常在心灵上被放逐或自我放逐的过程中达到对人生的顿悟,深切感受到自己与家庭和社会的紧密联系,最终接受现实,回归社会。很大程度上,,贝娄的“去中心”与德里达的解构有着相合之处。 因此,本论文将以文本细读为基础,从解构主义角度探究贝娄重要作品《雨王汉德森》中的政治内涵。就目前国内外研究现状而言,此方向还具有很大的研究空间。具体而论,白色文明与黑色文明是《雨王汉德森》中最突出的一组二元对立。为消解白色文明的中心地位,贝娄采用了与解构相一致的方法,例如增补和等级颠倒,延异和踪迹,友爱和弥赛亚精神。首先,通过汉德森在非洲的经历,贝娄证明了黑色文明其实是一种“危险的增补”,它同样拥有白色文明自认为特有的品质,同时补充了白色文明的不足,在某个时刻甚至篡夺了白色文明的中心地位,以此促成文明间的交流,展示出无限的可能性。另外,贝娄利用贯穿全文的“我要”之声的延异过程,瓦解汉德森身为白人的主体自足性,通过白人汉德森在黑人部落里逐渐完成自我认识和领悟“他们要”的友爱哲学的经历,揭示向他文化开放的重要性。最后,汉德森认识到个人与社会相互依存的关系,这反映了贝娄追求跨越边界、建立责任共同体的政治理想。和德里达一样,贝娄同样主张个体打破自设疆界,向他者完全开放,带着爱与责任回归社会。 凭借对社会现实的敏锐洞察和对犹太伦理坚定不移的信仰,贝娄在其作品中倾注了自我的政治思考,成功地为读者提供了看待自身和社会的不同角度,其政治意蕴发人深省。
[Abstract]:Saul Bellow, a famous Jewish-American writer, has a profound focus on society, culture and humanism throughout his writing career. Bellow is keenly aware of the excessive egocentrism and self-isolation in contemporary society. In his works he often resorts to Jewish ethics against dualistic opposition and advocates the politics of fraternity. Therefore, most of Bellow's protagonists encounter alienation at the beginning of the novel and lack an accurate understanding of themselves and society. They often reach the epiphany of life in the process of being exiled or self-exiled, deeply feel their close connection with the family and society, and finally accept the reality and return to society. To a large extent, Bellow's de-centering coincides with Derrida's deconstruction. Therefore, this thesis will explore the political connotation of Bellow's important work "Henderson the Rain King" from the perspective of deconstructivism on the basis of careful reading of the text. At present, the research situation at home and abroad, this direction also has a lot of research space. Specifically, the white civilization and the black civilization are the most prominent set of dualistic opposites in Henderson, the Rain King. To dispel the centrality of white civilization, Bellow adopted methods consistent with deconstruction, such as addition and rank inversion, prolongation and trace, fraternity, and Messiah spirit. First of all, through Henderson's experience in Africa, Bellow proved that the black civilization is actually a "dangerous addition," which also has the qualities that the white civilization considers unique to itself, and at the same time complements the inadequacies of the white civilization. At some point even usurped the center of the white civilization, thus facilitating intercivilizational exchanges, showing unlimited possibilities. In addition, Bellow uses the "I want" process throughout the text to disintegrate Henderson's subjective self-sufficiency as a white man. The importance of openness to his culture is revealed through the experience of white Henderson's gradual realization of self-awareness and understanding of the philosophy of fraternity of "they want" in black tribes. Finally, Henderson recognized the interdependence between individuals and society, which reflected Bellow's pursuit of the political ideal of crossing the border and establishing a responsible community. Like Derrida, Bellow advocated that individuals break their own boundaries, be completely open to others, and return to society with love and responsibility. With a keen insight into social reality and an unswerving belief in Jewish ethics, Bellow poured his own political thinking into his works and successfully provided readers with different perspectives on themselves and society, and his political implications were thought-provoking.
