霍尔顿心理困境的拉康式解读

A Lacanian Reading of Holden 's Psychological Dilemma

运用拉康关于主体心理结构三个级别的理论对《麦田里的守望者》中主人公霍尔顿的心理困境进行剖析,认为霍尔顿的心理发展在短短两天三夜里经历了不同时期。"镜像阶段"霍尔顿形成虚幻但完美的"自我"———做童真的救世主。在象征级中,霍尔顿感到"父亲之名"对镜像的强大威胁,被象征性的阉割了。最终,霍尔顿徘徊在想象级和象征级间无所适从,不时表现出想回归真实级的冲动。

Equipped with Lacan＇s theory about the three registers of the human psyche, this paper focuses on the analysis of Holden＇s mental development. First, in the Imaginary Order Holden forms an idealized mirror image to be a catcher in the rye. Then confronted with the adult world, he feels strong threats elicited by the Name-of-the-Father to his Ideal ego and in a symbolic sense he is castrated. Afterwards, wandering between the Imaginary and the Symbolic, Holden unconsciously longs for the Real to regain the original completeness.
