发布时间：2018-08-26 17:43
【摘要】：《兔子归来》是美国当代小说家约翰·厄普代克(John Updike 1932-2009)最富盛名的兔子系列长篇小说的第二部。小说于1971年面世,虽然故事以主人公哈里的日常生活为主线,但作品背景却相当宽泛,涉及六十年代种种重大社会事件如越南战争、反文化运动、黑人民权运动、女权运动等,展现了一幅微观而细致的战后美国图景。厄普代克以小见大,着重描绘了哈里所经历的种种矛盾冲突和由此带来的困境与危机,而哈里也成为大多数美国民众的代言人。主人公哈里在这部小说中成长变化最大,与之相关的研究和解读却并不及第一、三部。本文主要考察哈里在动荡不安的年代中面临的身份危机。论文首先对《兔子归来》的研究现状做了梳理,阐释和界定了身份这个概念,选取了最能表现兔子身份危机的三个方面分三章进行讨论。第一章论述在一个女性发声的时代,詹尼斯的独立与出走使哈里在家庭中逐渐失去话语权,哈里的家长地位受到威胁,而哈里也迎头反击,重得权利。第二章进而探讨哈里在种族认知和国家意识两方面面临的身份危机,并讨论他如何度过危机,重新确立身份。第三章则聚焦于哈里的房产对于他身份的重要性,房子最终烧毁却也化“危”为“机”。简而言之,动荡复杂的社会背景深刻影响了个人的身份认同,哈里作为代表人物,尽管接二连三遭受身份危机,却在危机中成长,以更客观理性的眼光审视美国社会种种二元对立的力量如男女、黑白、上下层阶级等,重新确立自己的身份地位,更好地在社会立足。兔子的困境也反映着美国的困境。论文试图弥补《兔子归来》研究成果不全不多的遗憾,希望能够帮助读者更好地理解主人公的境遇以及整部小说。
[Abstract]:The return of the Rabbit is the second installment of the most famous rabbit series by contemporary American novelist John Updike, 1932-2009. The novel was published in 1971. Although the story takes Harry's daily life as the main line, the background of the novel is quite broad, covering such major social events as the Vietnam War, the anti-cultural movement, the black civil rights movement, the feminist movement, and so on in the 1960s. It shows a microscopic and detailed picture of the United States after the war. Updike looks at the whole in a small part, focusing on the contradictions and conflicts that Harry has experienced and the difficulties and crises that have caused him, and Harry has become the voice of the majority of the American people. Harry, the protagonist, grew up and changed the most in this novel. This paper examines Harry's identity crisis in a turbulent age. In this paper, the present research situation of Rabbit's return is first reviewed, the concept of identity is explained and defined, and the three aspects that can best represent rabbit's identity crisis are discussed in three chapters. The first chapter discusses that in the era of female voice, Janice's independence and departure gradually made Harry lose his right of speech in the family, Harry's parental status was threatened, and Harry fought back head-on and regained his rights. The second chapter discusses Harry's identity crisis in both racial cognition and national consciousness, and discusses how he can survive the crisis and re-establish his identity. The third chapter focuses on the importance of Harry's property to his identity. In short, the tumultuous and complex social context has profoundly influenced the identity of individuals, and Harry, as a representative character, has grown up in crisis, despite one identity crisis after another. This paper examines the dualistic forces of American society, such as men and women, black and white, upper and lower classes, with a more objective and rational view, so as to re-establish one's own status and establish a better foothold in the society. The rabbit's plight also reflects the American dilemma. The paper tries to make up for the regret that the research results of Rabbit return are not all enough, hoping to help readers better understand the situation of the protagonist and the whole novel.
