摘要
美国当代女作家玛丽琳·罗宾逊的最新小说《家园》取材圣经的浪子回头故事,将家园模式书写为信仰与传统价值的物质载体,展现与现代理念的冲突与斗争,反映"流动的现代性"对固有秩序的解构与冲击。小说中家庭成员伦理身份的悖论期待在家园结构所表征的传统秩序中获得救赎,而"流动的现代性"的瓦解力量却在不断形塑新的文化模式,导致传统救赎的不确定性,从而揭示作者对信仰的人文理解,对传统价值的理性思考。
Based on the Biblical story of 'the Prodigal Son',Marilynne Robinson's latest novel Home unfolds against a clash between religious belief and secular ideas,demonstrating the dissolution of traditional order in 'liquid modernity'.The paradox of identity in the novel draws its root in traditional values and entails redemption,but 'liquid modernity' constantly reshapes existing cultural patterns,thus leading to an indeterminacy of traditional redemption.In this way,the author presents her humanitarian and rational understanding of religion and traditional values.
