19世纪进化论的文化反思:以《众生之路》的回忆叙事为例
发布时间：2019-03-06 14:26
【摘要】：19世纪的英国社会受到达尔文进化论的全面洗礼,但反对与质疑的声浪也从未停歇。萨缪尔·巴特勒对达尔文主义的文化反思兼具科学思辨性与艺术审美性。在一系列生物学著作中,巴特勒提出了一种"遗传-记忆"理论,用以反驳达尔文的"自然选择"理论,"遗传-记忆"的核心即"生命即是记忆",而他的一系列文学创作则将这些科学构想融入诗性语言。在自传性质的代表作《众生之路》中,巴特勒基于自己构建的"生命即是记忆"观,对自然选择及由其支撑的进步论的批判达到顶峰。这部作品融合了生物记忆机制与诗性回忆机制,呈现出对于19世纪盛行的进化论的深度反思。
[Abstract]:British society in the 19th century was christened by Darwinian evolution, but the waves of opposition and doubt never ceased. Samuel Butler's cultural reflection on Darwinism is both scientific and artistic aesthetic. In a series of biological works, Butler proposed a "genetic-memory" theory to refute Darwin's "natural selection" theory, the core of which is "life is memory." His series of literary works incorporate these scientific ideas into poetic language. Butler's criticism of natural selection and the theory of progress supported by it has reached its peak based on his self-constructed view of "life is memory" in his representative book the Road to all beings of the autobiographical nature. This work combines biological memory mechanism with poetic memory mechanism and presents a deep reflection on the evolution theory prevailing in the 19th century.
