《献给爱米丽的玫瑰》中的叙事者和角色

The Narrator and Characters in A Rose for Emily

美国内战后,南方社会处于一片混乱,直接冲击着南方人的生活、思想、价值观等,处于一片混沌。而这一混沌不仅体现在小说中的“我们”这一叙事者对爱米丽的态度,还体现在“我们”的叙事方式上——层层倒叙、意识流而非传统的顺序。这是一篇采用第一人称复数作为叙事者和故事人物的典范之作。

The chaos after the civil war in southern America caused confusion in people＇s life, thoughts and values at that time. It is not only reflected in the attitudes of ＂us＂, the narrator, to Emily, but also presented in ＂our＂ way of telling the story an inverted, unconventional way and in the use of the stream of consciousness. It＇s a good example of using the first-person plural form as the narrator.
