论伍尔夫创作的诗化特质

On the Poetic Quality of Virginia Woolf's Writing

弗吉尼亚.伍尔夫创作的诗化特质是她有别于其它英美现代主义小说家的一个主要特点,也是她的重要成就之一。该特质源自她对小说诗歌化的重要性的深刻认识和她的师承,也与时代的变化和她的女性主义思想有关。伍尔夫的主要作品《到灯塔去》、《达洛维夫人》和《海浪》)表明,她的作品具有象征性、音乐性和绘画性等突出的诗化特质,这是对现代主义小说美学的独特贡献。

The poetic quality of Virginia Woolf＇ s writing is one of the most important achievements of her creative activity, which distinguishes her from other modernist novelists. The quality originates in her realization of the importance of poeticized fiction, her choice of literary tradition, the changes of her day as well as her feminist stance. Her major novels such as To the Lighthouse, Mrs Dalloway and The Waves demonstrate that her fiction has the features of symbol, music and painting, which is her unique contribution to the aestheticism of modern fiction.
