回忆与方位·历史与现实·性别意识与身份认同——毕晓普《地理之三》的一种解读
Recollection and Location, History and Reality, Gender Consciousness and Identity: Reading Elizabeth Bishop’ s Geography Ⅲ
【摘要】 美国诗人伊丽莎白·毕晓普一生漂泊不定,其作品多透露出对于回忆与方位的敏锐感知与深刻洞察。本文聚焦于毕晓普最后一部诗集《地理之三》中的四首诗歌,探讨其如何透过时空距离呈现对于历史与现实的观照。在她的笔下,回忆往昔旨在对抗记忆迷失,以及由此而产生的身份困惑。她对地理的兴趣反映出一个旅人对于方位的好奇,其作品的观察视角随时空而变化,且以此转换经验;这一过程表现出诗人对于性别意识(甚至是性取向)和身份认知(包括自我认知)的表现,后者还体现为对于巴西下层民众的优越感。
【Abstract】 Elizabeth Bishop lived a migrant life, and her writings mostly betray sensitivity and perception in time and space. The present article focuses on four poems of Bishop’ s last poetry collection Geography Ⅲ, and discusses their treatment of history and reality through the lens of recollection and location. In Bishop, recollection aims at countering memory loss and identity perplexity arising from it. Bishop’ s curiosity about the specificities of time and place is a manifestation of her interest in the way experiences are transformed when the poet describes them and deals with issues like gender consciousness, sexual orientation and self-identity.
【Key words】 Elizabeth Bishop; Geography Ⅲ; history and present; gender conscious; self-identity;
