《店里的女人》与曼斯菲尔德的身份思考
An Outsider in the New Zealand Bush:“The Woman at the Store”and Mansfield’s Reflections on Identity
【摘要】 《店里的女人》是凯瑟琳·曼斯菲尔德以新西兰丛林为创作背景的首部作品,其所呈现的新西兰内陆丛林生活折射了曼斯菲尔德对于自身多重身份的思考。首先,通过冷峻审视藏匿于新西兰丛林中的殖民鄙陋,小说家直面新西兰白人殖民者的外来者身份;其次,通过回望新西兰丛林,曼斯菲尔德表达了对于自己长期客居英国的自由外来者身份的思考;最后,通过反观新西兰丛林,小说家积极探索与传统现实主义以及欧美主流现代主义不一样的艺术创造。这些关于自身外来者身份的早期思考成就了曼斯菲尔德后来卓尔不群的艺术人生。
【Abstract】 "The Woman at the Store"is the first of Katherine Mansfield’s short stories set in the New Zealand bush.Its depiction of life in the bush points to a profound reflection on Mansfield’s part upon the question of identity.First of all,Mansfield probes into the status of all white New Zealanders as"outsiders"who had come with the British colonial invasion.Then,she gives her reflections on her migrant identity in the UK through looking back on her experience as a white outsider in New Zealand.Finally,Mansfield discovers in the New Zealand bush a unique art form that tells her apart from both traditional realists and European modernists in general.These reflections on her identity as an outsider directly contributed to the making of Mansfield for a most eminent career.
