摘要
《孤独旅者》是一部包含了凯鲁亚克个人经历和文化记忆的自传体小说。凯鲁亚克结合日记与个人经历的具有新颖的文学体裁,成功地描绘了一种多元文化的语境,旨在阐释垮掉派追求另类文化的原因并澄清批评界对他作为"反文化"作家代表的误解。本文通过分析文本中的多元文化因素以及凯鲁亚克的文化立场,细致地探讨作品中的文化记忆。该研究认为,凯鲁亚克把自传创作成为一部"自传作为小说",将自己视为一名传统文学的追随者,而不是反文化运动的代表人物。
The American novelist John Cheever creates in The Swimmer a unique river, which symbolizes the habitat of the A- merican middle class, named Lucinda through his extraordinary imaginative power and skillful narrative techniques. The pro- tagonist Neddy Merrill＇ s going home through this river symbolizes the life voyage of the middle class. Neddy＇ s watery voyage homeward is in effect a kind of quest for the American dream and his quest symbolizes similarly the perdition of such a dream.
