“单片眼镜的反光”——评迪伦马特的小说《抛锚》

The Glisten of the Monocle:Dürrenmatt's Break Down

本文分析了瑞士作家弗里德里希.迪伦马特的小说《抛锚》,通过对这位作家的其他小说及戏剧作品的观照,指出他在《抛锚》中所关注的四个焦点——对抗理性的"偶然"、颠覆意义的"解构"、构筑权力的"知识"和掩盖事实的"正义"。这也是后现代文学中几个常见的主题。《抛锚》主题深邃、构思精巧,犹如"单片眼镜",读者尽可以在其"反光"中捕捉各种现象和丰富的意义。

The present paper penetrates into the Swiss writer Friedrich Dürrenmatt＇s novel Break Down and analyzes the author＇s four focuses by consulting his plays and other novellas. These four focuses, also familiar themes in post-modem literature, are ＂ contingency＂ against reasoning, ＂deconstruction＂ for subversion, ＂knowledge＂ in the power-system, and ＂justice＂ against the revealment of facts. Due to its profound themes and delicate design, Break Down looks like a ＂monocle＂, in whose ＂glisten＂ readers can see various phenomena and catch abundant meanings.
