孤独的人是可耻的——《隐身人》中的个人主义与集体主义

The Lonely Man is Shameful——Individualism and Collectivism in Invisible Man

《隐身人》是科幻小说奠基人之一的H.G.威尔斯的一部重要作品,写作于1897年的《隐身人》探讨的是科学家与普罗大众关系的问题,但小说的深度不仅仅停留于此,最终的文本深入发掘了一个社会中领先于时代的强者如何与自己的时代相处的问题,是对话交流,还是隐身自闭的命题。并且故事发生的时代和地点第一次从遥远的太平洋荒岛或八十万年后的宇宙洪荒来到了19世纪维多利亚时代的英国,以一种更加现实主义的方式来探讨一个他人看不见的人将会与这个社会发生怎样的冲突,以及隐身将带来怎样的伦理困境。

The Invisible Man is an important work of H.G.Wells,one of the founders of science fiction.The Invisible Man,written in 1897,explores the relationship between scientists and the general public,but the depth of the novel does not stop there.The final text deeply excavates a strong man who is ahead of the times in society.How to get along with our times is a topic of dialogue and communication or invisibility and autism.And the time and place of the story first came from the remote Pacific desert island or the cosmic floods 800,000 years later to Victorian Britain in the 19 th century.In a more realistic way,it explored how an invisible person would conflict with the society and what invisibility would bring.Such ethical dilemma.
