摘要
美国荒诞派作家阿尔比在美国戏剧界影响深远,他的代表作之一,《谁害怕弗吉尼亚.伍尔夫?》在百老汇连续上演两年之久。通过对剧中四组二元对立:在场与缺场、现实与幻想、游戏与战争、爱与恨的剖析,阿尔比表现人类存在的荒诞本质得到了展现;他对人类存在的理解也包含许多解构的中心要旨。文学文本与哲学被并置,可以说荒诞剧是解构的萌芽;剧作的荒诞性又在一定程度上预演了作为后结构主义一部分的解构主义浪潮。
American Absurdist playwright Edward Albee has a great influence in American dramatic circle. One of his masterpieces, Who' s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, were staged on Broadway for two years on end. An analysis of four pairs of binary oppositions in the play: presence and absence, reality and illusion, game and war, love and hate, finds that Albee presents the absurd nature of human existence and that his understanding of human existence includes the central gist of deconstruction. Literary texts and philosophy being juxtaposed, absurdist plays could be called the bud of deeonstruetion. To a certain degree, the absurdity of the play is a rehearsal of reconstruction wave which is a part of post-strueturalism.
