奥威尔小说叙事艺术的伦理意蕴

The Ethical Implication of Narrative Art in Orwell’s Major Novels

奥威尔代表作《动物农庄》与《一九八四》蕴含人道主义伦理思想。本文从反专制与反极权主义的视点切入,分析两部小说巧借寓言与虚构小说载体,多"展示"人物形象、主人公的言行、社会种种恐怖与悖论事实,妙用不动声色的文字能指符号,提供大量的细节,揭露人与人、人与社会被制裁、异化与扭曲的真相,所指的正是人道主义伦理主题。小说始终闪烁着人道主义思想的光芒,吸引着读者不断地依据自身的经验认知专制与极权社会的恐怖性,从而判断人生的价值。

With the implication of humanitarian ethical thoughts, Orwell’s representative works Animal Farm and 1984 focus on anti-tyrannical society and anti-totalitarianism, which based on the fable and fictional writings as a way of showing figures image, hero’s speech and action, social terrors and paradox reality, employed the peaceful word-signifiers, supplied with numerous descriptive details to disclose the applying sanctions against human to human, human to society, and the human-deformed facts. All indicates humanitarian ethical theme. The two novels implicated the humanitarian thoughts to lead readers to judge the terrors from the tyrannical and totalitarian society with their experience and the life value.
