蒋彝《牛津画记》的语图互动策略
The Interactive Strategy of Language and Pictures in Chiang Yee’s The Silent Traveler in Oxford
【摘要】 《牛津画记》是二战前后在西方世界具有极大影响力的一本英语旅游文学畅销书,作者蒋彝使用了多重语图互动策略,成功开创了华人在海外以英文书写、书画结合的“画记”体游记。首先,《牛津画记》通过语象叙事策略以文字模仿作画、演剧的动态过程,让眼前的风景经由文字的叙事而成为流动的风景。其次,《牛津画记》以虚指性的图像辅助语言,通过虚实共现的语图叙述将英国人作为凝视的对象,智慧地表达了蒋彝对西方社会风行的刻板印象、殖民话语的无声反抗。最后,《牛津画记》以“跳跃回归”的语图叙述方式统摄语言与图像,营造了一个敞开的、无边界的城市空间,表达了蒋彝消除种族隔阂、希冀世界和平的愿望。
【Abstract】 The Silent Traveler in Oxford is a bestselling travel book, written in English, that had a great influence in the pre-war or post-war Western world. Chiang Yee, its author, employed a multiple interactive strategy of language and pictures in successfully creating a painting-account-based travelogue that combines writing in English and calligraphy/painting,amongst the Chinese overseas. First, The Silent Traveler in Oxford imitates the dynamic process of painting and playacting to enable the scenery in front of one’s eyes to become a flowing scenery by way of a word-based narrative. Second, The Silent Traveler in Oxford assists the language with the virtually referred-to pictures, turning the English people into a gazed object, by way of both virtual and real narration of words and pictures, intelligently expressing Chiang Yee’s silent protest against the stereotype and colonial discourse virulent in the Western society. Finally, The Silent Traveler in Oxford exercises control over language and pictures, with the narrative method of language and pictures that leap to return, creating an urban space that is open and boundless, expressing Chiang Yee’s wish to eliminate racial segregation and his hope for world peace.
