《夏洛克行动》中内心探索的外化策略

Externalization of Inner Exploration in The Operation of Shylock

当美国犹太文学逐步完成从边缘到中心的演变后,人们开始更多地关心以色列以及整个中东地区的政治、宗教和文化等方面的矛盾冲突。这些问题极大地影响了流散海外的犹太人的思想和生活,愈加凸显其身份的模糊性,但也给美国犹太作家提供了新的创作题材。菲利普·罗斯在小说《夏洛克行动》中将新现实主义创作理念与自传体手法巧妙结合,展示了对犹太人内心探索的外化过程,以置身中东冲突的亲身经历揭示犹太知识分子回归后身份变化的可能,尝试用戏仿的手法颠覆莎士比亚以来描写犹太人形象的传统话语。

After Jewish American literature completed its movement from the margin to the center, Jewish American writers begin to pay more attention to the development of Israel and the political conflicts in the Middle East which have kept influencing the Jewish people even in other countries. Philip Roth＇s narration in The Operation of Shylock records his own experience in Middle East conflicts, externalizing the inner voice of Jewish American intellectuals, and suggesting the possibility of change in identity. His parody of Shakespeare subverts the stereotypical image of Jewish people.
