从《夕阳》的叙事策略论其对主题的表现

On the Manifestation to the Theme from the Narrative Tactics of "That Evening Sun"

短篇小说《夕阳》反映了美国南方种族歧视,充满了跌宕变换的叙事节奏、错位歪曲的叙事时序和变化多样的叙事视角。这种叙事策略的运用,使主题的揭示达到了他同时代、同类主题的其他作家无法企及的深度,使作品的内容和形式得到了完美的统一,作品因此获得了独特的艺术魅力。

'That Evening Sun' probes into the racial discrimination in the south of America. The paper reveals deeply the influence of the racial discrimination over the young generation and predicts the difficulties of wiping them out. The paper analyzes the changeable narrative rhythm,the meandering narrative order and the variable narrative sight. The use of the narrative tactics makes the theme much deeper unattainable by other writers on the same theme at the same epoch. It makes the from and the content of the short story united and gets an unique artistic effect.
