发布时间:2018-08-30 13:26
【摘要】:A.S.拜厄特对重述历史情有独钟,其中尤以维多利亚历史最为显著。她的成名作《占有》以及另一部小说《天使与昆虫》将拜厄特的这一情结表露无遗。本文在前人研究的基础上尝试从琳达·哈钦的历史编撰体元小说理论出发,结合拜厄特本人的专著《论历史与故事》和《心灵的激情》,着眼于作者在《占有》和《天使与昆虫》两部小说中对维多利亚社会极富人文关怀的重构。 本文尝试分三章论述拜厄特对维多利亚历史的重构。第一章“信仰的再现:宗教和科学”重点阐述十九世纪《物种起源》的发表所导致的宗教与科学的碰撞。当宗教受到科学的猛烈撞击时,拜厄特塑造了分别以艾什,威廉、哈罗德以及女性灵媒为代表的知识分子、科学家、虔诚信徒以及灵媒论者,聚焦于人物自身的生存境遇和思想斗争,以维多利亚的语言和方式深刻展现面对信仰危机时不同人物各自的思想挣扎和信仰选择。 第二章“女性形象的重塑:魔鬼与天使”着眼于作者所塑造的分别以拉莫特、艾米莉·丁尼生以及艾伦为代表的女性作家、寡妇以及“家中天使”等维多利亚女性角色,从各角色的学识、生活经验和个体价值观等方面出发,结合人物自身的成长环境、经济境遇以及情感纠葛等来分析拜厄特如何再现维多利亚女性人物各自不同的生存理念和最终生活方式的选择,全面而直观地刻画维多利亚时期的“魔鬼”亦或“天使”等各类女性,为读者描绘了一幅维多利亚女性全景图。 第三章“神话的重述:模仿与创作”从神话改编的角度重点探讨小说中以拉莫特和麦蒂为代表的维多利亚女性作家对自己改编神话的态度及其作品,以人文主义的关怀聚焦于人物自身,并结合当时的社会环境和两位女性作家自身的价值追求,从而展现作者拜厄特对当时女性作家从“模仿”到意图解构传统再到“创作”这一过程的描述,再现了维多利亚时期的女性作家在创作时“被侵入”的窘境以及她们通过“模仿”来表达自我却反抗传统未果的复杂情绪。 总之,无论是信仰危机的再现、女性形象的重述还是神话寓言的改编,拜厄特都极力使用维多利亚时期的语言和方式从维多利亚人物自身的角度出发以更“真实”地展现这段富有争议的历史。本论文着眼于人物自身的价值观、个体尊严以及自我实现的追求等,分别从信仰危机、女性生存选择以及解构传统三个方面分三章剖析拜厄特对维多利亚历史的重构,展现作者对维多利亚不同人物的同情,并通过叙述形式和重构策略等历史编撰体元小说的后现代技法构筑了一个更加饱满、更加人性的社会,体现了作者对维多利亚这一特殊时期的人文关怀。
[Abstract]:A.S. Byatt has a special fondness for restatement of history, especially Victorian history. Her famous book, possession, and another novel, Angels and insects, reveal the complex of Byatt. On the basis of previous studies, this paper attempts to start with Linda Harchin's theory of historical compilation and metafiction. In combination with Byatt's monograph on History and Story and the Passion of the mind, this paper focuses on the reconstruction of the author's humanistic concern for Victorian society in two novels, possession and Angels and insects. This paper attempts to discuss the reconstruction of Victorian history by Byatt in three chapters. Chapter one, "Reproduction of Faith: religion and Science", focuses on the collision between religion and science caused by the publication of the Origin of species in the nineteenth century. When religion was hit hard by science, Byatt shaped intellectuals, scientists, devout believers and mediationists, represented by Asher, William, Harold, and the female psychic, respectively. Focusing on the living conditions and ideological struggles of the characters themselves, Victorian language and style are used to profoundly show the different characters' ideological struggles and religious choices in the face of the crisis of faith. Chapter two, "remolding the female Image: the Devil and the Angel", focuses on the female writers represented by Lamote, Emily Tennyson and Alan, widows and Victorian female characters such as the Angel of the Family. Starting from the learning, life experience and individual values of each role, and combining the growth environment of the characters themselves, Economic circumstances and emotional entanglements are used to analyze how Byatt reproduces the Victorian female characters' different ideas of survival and choices of their final way of life. Comprehensively and intuitively depicts all kinds of women in Victorian period, such as devil or angel, and gives readers a panorama of Victorian women. Chapter three, "restatement of mythology: imitation and creation", focuses on the attitude of Victorian female writers, represented by Ramote and McGrady, to their own mythological adaptation and their works from the perspective of mythological adaptation. Focusing on the characters themselves with humanistic care, and combining the social environment of the time and the value pursuit of the two female writers themselves, This shows the author's description of the process from "imitation" to intention deconstruction of tradition to "creation" by female writers at that time. It reappears the dilemma of Victorian women writers who were "invaded" in their works and their complex feelings of expressing themselves through imitation but resisting tradition and failure. In a word, whether it is the reappearance of the faith crisis, the restatement of the female image or the adaptation of the mythical fable, Byatt tries to use Victorian language and methods to show the controversial history from the Victorian characters' own point of view. This paper focuses on the values of the characters, individual dignity and the pursuit of self-realization, respectively, from the crisis of faith, the choice of women's survival and the deconstruction of tradition, this paper analyzes Byatt's reconstruction of Victorian history in three chapters. It shows the author's sympathy for different Victorian characters, and constructs a fuller and more human society through the post-modern techniques of historical compiling style and metafiction, such as narrative form and reconstruction strategy. It reflects the author's humanistic concern for Victoria in this special period.
