传统经典文论中的叙事写实主义是哈代文艺美学思想的重要内容。本文试图从后现代主义诗学视域,通过聚焦机器隐喻与人的“联姻”关系,重新审视传统英国文学中的一座丰碑——《苔丝》,对哈代小说叙事的机械变形展开有别于传统定式的文学阐释。从富于当代学术意识的审美维度审视惯常被隐匿的景观,凸显哈代文学观所蕴含的伦理诗学力量,启迪我们对经典小说叙事观的开放性理解,从一新侧面拓展外国文学研究视界,警示现代生活中工业文明的弊端。
Narrative realism in traditional literary theory is an important content of Hardy’s aesthetic thought of literature and art. This paper reexamines the monumental work, Tess, from the perspective of post modernism by connecting mechanical metaphor with humans to distinguish Hardy’s narrative art of novels from established patterns. It contributes to highlighting poetic power in literary ethics and revealing its hidden meaning from contemporary aesthetic consciousness to instruct open interpretation of classic novels’ narrative view. It intends to expand research horizon from a new dimension, warning defects of industrial civilization in modern life.
