张爱玲小说中的父亲形象

Farther Figures in the Works of Zhang Ai-ling

张爱玲小说中父亲形象的特征是:出身大户人家,是个破落户、遗少;抽大烟,吃喝嫖赌;没有父爱,对孩子不是训斥,就是算计利用;有古文修养。张爱玲小说中的父亲形象明显地带有张爱玲亲生父亲的影子。他们的成功塑造说明了缺失性体验在创作中的重要作用。

A large number of father figures have been created in the literary history of both China and other countries. The characteristics of the father figures in the works of Zhan Ai-ling go as follows： though born in a rich family, they are actuary buckeeus and used-to-be masters of a perished dynasty; they all smoke opium and are obsessed with beer and skittles, and with wenching and gambling; in lack of patriarchal love, they either rebuke or calculate and utilize their children; they are all of good taste of Chinese classic literature, These father figures in Zhang Ai-ling＇s fiction have obviously embodied her own father in life. The successful characterization of these literary figures elucidates the importance of the experience of absence in literary creation.
