毛姆小说叙事研究
发布时间:2018-11-14 10:58
【摘要】:威廉·萨默塞特·毛姆是一位在世界范围内广受欢迎的小说家,他的人生经历多姿多彩,作品颇丰,长篇小说《人生的枷锁》、《月亮和六便士》、《刀锋》等都为他赢得了为数众多的读者。然而毛姆在文学史上的地位却和他在读者中所受欢迎的程度极不相称,与文学历史上的一些大文豪相比,评论家们只愿意承认他是一个“会讲故事”的小说家,并将他纳入“二流作家”的行列。目前国内关于毛姆的评论和研究文章,多集中在他作品中的东方情结、语言艺术或有关某一作品主题的浅层论述上,而毛姆的作品之所以能够吸引大批读者并为他们所喜爱,和其对故事题材的精心选择和独到的叙事方式是分不开的。因此,结合叙事学的结构主义分析方法对其小说的深层叙述形式和艺术特点进行探讨,具有一定的价值和意义。本文主要结合叙事学和文本学的分析方法,以毛姆的四部长篇小说代表作为主要分析对象,从中观照毛姆小说的叙事特色和艺术价值。文章分为五大部分,第一章对毛姆的生平及其小说观做了简要的介绍,并综合国内外批评家对毛姆作品的主要评价,为选题和论述提供依据。第二章从毛姆小说的故事层面出发,分析作品的情节脉络,提炼出潜藏在其小说下的故事母题,并结合福斯特的人物观,对毛姆小说中人物形象类型的变化及所产生的艺术效果进行分析。第三章主要从叙事学中的话语层面入手,分析毛姆小说的叙述者和叙述视角问题。别于传统现实主义的写作技巧是毛姆小说的艺术特色所在,同时也使他的作品带上了一些现代主义的色彩。第四章主要从文本层面对毛姆小说的修辞方法及独特文体进行分析。除了言语反讽之外,他的小说中还往往存在一种情境反讽的“反高潮”模式,这种模式是对传统现实主义小说叙事方法的突破,也反映出他在作品背后所潜藏的悲观主义思想。他有时将这种带有悲观主义色彩的哲学理念直接用对话体的方式安插在故事情节中,,也在一定程度上体现出毛姆小说观中的辩证思维。毛姆小说具:有高超的叙事技巧和独特的叙事特色,是二十世纪世界文坛当之无愧的优秀小说家。
[Abstract]:William Somerset Maugham is a popular novelist in the world. His life experiences are varied and his works are abundant. The novel the chains of Life, the Moon and Sixpence, The blade won him a large number of readers. But Maugham's place in literary history was far from commensurate with the popularity of his readers, and critics were willing only to admit that he was a "storytelling" novelist, compared with some of the great literary giants of literary history. He was also included in the ranks of "second-rate writers". At present, most of the domestic comments and research articles on Maugham focus on his oriental complex, language art or shallow discussion on the subject of a certain work, and Maugham's works can attract a large number of readers and be loved by them. It is inseparable from its careful choice of the story theme and its unique narrative style. Therefore, it is of certain value and significance to probe into the deep narrative form and artistic characteristics of his novel with the structuralism analysis method of narratology. This article mainly combines narratology and textual analysis methods, taking the representative of four novels of Maugham as the main object of analysis, from which the narrative characteristics and artistic value of Maugham's novels are studied. This paper is divided into five parts. The first chapter briefly introduces Maugham's life and his novel view, and synthesizes the main evaluation of Maugham's works by domestic and foreign critics. The second chapter starts from the story level of Maugham's novel, analyzes the plot of the work, abstracts the story motif hidden under his novel, and combines with Foster's view of characters. This paper analyzes the changes of characters' image types and their artistic effects in Maugham's novels. The third chapter analyzes the narrator and narrative angle of Maugham's novels from the discourse level of narratology. Different from the traditional realism, Maugham's writing technique is the artistic feature of Maugham's novels, and it also brings some modernism to his works. The fourth chapter mainly analyzes the rhetorical method and the unique style of Maugham's novels from the aspect of text. Besides verbal irony, there is often a "anti-climax" pattern of situational irony in his novels, which is a breakthrough in the narrative methods of traditional realistic novels and reflects the pessimism hidden behind his works. He sometimes puts this kind of philosophy with pessimism in the storyline directly with the way of dialogue, and to a certain extent reflects the dialectical thinking in Maugham's novels. Maugham's novels have superb narrative skills and unique narrative characteristics.
