【副题名】评伊迪丝·华顿三部作品叙事中“隐含作者”的体现

【摘要】 论文通过对伊迪丝·华顿三部作品,《欢乐之家》、《天真的年代》和《伊坦·弗洛美》中叙事技巧和叙事声音的分析,寻找到“隐含作者”的存在。华顿在叙述中穿插运用的反讽,变故,小插曲,聚焦等技巧增添了叙事的节奏;叙事声音,特别是主要人物的叙事声音的转换,多个角度呈现出作者的介入叙述。此外,本文将作品的道德寓意与“隐含作者”、“可靠叙述者”、“对读者同情及审美距离的控制”等联系起来,在对有道德寓意结尾的分析中,凸现女作家理想化的道德世界。综其所述,本文大胆尝试从叙事学的角度分析华顿的作品。在叙事的变换中,“隐含作者”透露的道德信息是读者与作者之间达成清晰判断和理解的基础。而作者的替代自我和介入叙述并没有完全打破现实主义小说对客观性的保守,华顿的叙事在更广泛的意义上期待更多解读。更多还原

【Abstract】 This paper intends to find the presence of“implied author”by analyzing the narrative means and voices in Wharton’s three major masterpieces, The House of Mirth, The Age of Innocence and Ethan Frome. The technique of narrative which can produce the rhythmic effects on the narrative, such as“episode”,“irony”,“focalization”, will be analyzed in detail with the retracing of“implied author”. The transformation of narrative voices, especially the character-narrator reveals the intrusion of the author.Besides, the discussion center on the moral instructions conveyed by Wharton’s“implied author”,“reliable narrator”and“control of reader’s sympathy and aesthetic distance”. The author’s idealized sense of morality is illuminated with the discussion about moralized endings.This thesis is tentative to analyze Wharton’s works from the fresh angle of narratology. The“implied author”reveals the moralized world of Wharton. The moral instruction therefore offers the basis for understanding and judgment. However, the intrusion of the author does not interrupt the objectivity of narrative completely. Concerning Wharton’s narrative, there is more space for more interpretation and studies.更多还原
