男性叙事话语下的生态与女性关系——论勒克莱奇奥《寻金者》中女性形象的寓意

On the Symbolic Meaning of Female Characters in Le Clézio's Seeking Gold

女性在勒克莱齐奥的作品中占有重要的地位。在其代表作之一《寻金者》中,三位女性角色与大海联系紧密而方式各异,象征着自然的各个层面。叙事者对女性和自然的构想诠释了一种近似于生态女权主义的非二元论世界观,但作者的男性叙事话语既不标示对女性叙事声音的压迫或扭曲,也不反应为致力于女权主义的宣扬和贯彻。对三位女性经历的不同叙事策略,传递了勒克莱奇奥作为主流知识分子对文明社会的批评话语。

Women occupy an important position in Le Clézio's works. In one of his representative works Seeking Gold, three women, who are mother, sister and an indigenous girl Umma, are closely linked with the ocean. These three women are respectively the symbols of various levels of nature. The narrator's conception of women and his interpretation of nature bespeak a similar eco-feminist view of a non-dualistic world. However, the author's male narrative discourse is neither a so-called narrative voice consisting of oppression or distortion, nor promotion of feminism. Different narrative strategies concerning the three women's experience reveal Le Cl zio's critique on the civilized society as a mainstream intellectual.
