从记忆走向生命:论弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫的“生命写作”

From Memory to Life:On Virginia Woolfs“Life Writing”

作为文学大师,弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫与传记、日记、书信等相关文类的特殊渊源,使其在成长过程中对记忆艺术产生了深深的钟情与迷恋。伍尔夫不仅以传记为文学远航的出发点,还在对传记书写的探索中形成了著名的“花岗岩与彩虹”完美结合的“新传记”观念,更在此基础上,通过非个人化的艺术创造,在小说创作中将鲜活的生命记忆定格为至关重要的“存在的瞬间”,从而完成其终生致力于探索的“生命写作”。

As a literature master,Virginia Woolf had a profound affection and fascination for the art of memory,because of her special relationship with biographies,diaries,letters and other related works.Woolf not only chose biographies as the starting point of her literary journey,but also proposed the famous“new biography”concept of the perfect combination of“granite and rainbow”in the exploration of biography writing.On this basis,Woolf uses non-personalized artistic creation to fix the vivid life memory into a crucial“moments of being”when writing novels,so as to complete the“life writing”that she has devoted her life to exploring.
