生态批评家的职责:与斯科特·斯洛维克关于《走出去思考》的访谈(英文)

Eco-critics' Responsibility:An Interview with Scott Slovic on His Going away to Think

斯科特·斯洛维克是美国生态批评运动的主要倡导者之一,主编《文学与环境的跨文化研究》,笔者于2006年到2007年在内华达大学作访问学者时与斯洛维克有过密切接触,这也成为翻译他的《走出去思考》的直接契机。这部美国生态批评专著风格鲜明,作者将环境主义观点蕴涵在其雄辩过人、感情充沛的文字里,且不时闪动着针砭时弊的愤激和行动主义者的雷厉风行。本篇访谈是在整理笔者翻译此书过程中与斯洛维克往来电子邮件的基础上进一步补充和完善起来的,力图将著书与译书的视域融合起来,权作是中美生态批评的一次有益的对话。

Scott Slovic is one of the leading promoters ciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment （ISLE of American eco-criticism, editing Interdis- ）. From October 2006 to March 2007, I worked in University of Nevada at Rino as a visiting scholar, and kept in close contact with Prof. Slovic. This very exchange became the starting point of the translation project of Going away to Think, in which Slovic displays his environmentalism via eloquent and emotional articulation. The process of my translating the work is also one during which Slovic and I wrote to each other and exchanged ideas, which constitutes the fundamental part of this interview. With attempt to merge our visual spheres as an author and his translator, this interview can be considered as a construc- tive Sino-American eco-critical dialogue.
