汤姆·斯托帕德与莎士比亚的对话——《多戈的〈哈姆雷特〉》和《卡胡的〈麦克白〉》对莎剧的“重写”和“再构”

Stoppard's Dialogue with Shakespeare——Rewriting and Reconstructing Shakespearean Dramas in Dogg's Hamlet and Cahoo's Macbeth

自上个世纪60年代末,随着后现代和解构主义等思潮的出现,莎士比亚及其经典成为众多英国剧作家"后现代式"创作的殿堂。作为"再写"莎剧的大家,英国著名剧作家汤姆.斯托帕德把莎剧经典作为自由穿行的创作"田野",将莎剧文本与现实事件进行狂欢式的互文和拼贴,使两者彼此"嬉戏",从而构建出一个特有的意义生成的创作语境。

Since the 1960s, Shakespeare and his classics have become a focus of post-modernist dramatic rewriting. Using Shakespearean texts as a field of creation, Tom Stoppard travels freely in the carnival intertextuality and collages between Shakespearean lines and the political events in reality, thereby constructing a special generative context of meanings.
