《飞越疯人院》与美国的反文化运动

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and the American Counterculture Movement

在《飞越疯人院》这部小说中,肯.凯西颠覆了传统意义上的无赖、印第安人、女性和黑人形象,这几类曾被主流社会排斥在外的边缘化人物在疯人院——这一20世纪60年代美国社会的缩微舞台上纷纷粉墨登场,既再现了保守、沉寂的五十年代,又昭示了喧嚣、动荡的六十年代,是那样一个骚乱动荡年代反文化运动的特定产物。

In One Flew Over the Cuckoo＇ s Nest, Ken Kesey subverts the traditional images of rogue, Indian, woman and the black. These marginal groups who used to be excluded by the mainstream society embark upon the political venture in the Cuckoo＇ s Nest, epitome of the American society of the sixties of the twentieth century. It not only reproduces the conservative and silent fifties but also predicts the nonconformist and uproarious sixties, being the certain product of the turbulent and uproarious Counterculture Movement as well.
