神话原型视角下的孤独者彼得·潘

On Peter Pan the Solitary Soul by Mythological and Archetypal Approaches

苏格兰作家詹姆斯·巴里的小说《彼得·潘》和《彼得·潘在肯辛顿公园》创作于20世纪初期,主人公小飞侠彼得·潘成为世界文学长廊上的一个经典形象。他不仅仅是一个长不大的小男孩,还是一个拒绝长大的小男孩,使他有着迥异于其他儿童的特点。拒绝长大既是一种生活姿态,更是一种人生选择。运用神话原型批评理论,找到彼得.潘在古希腊神话和基督教文化中的原型,试图揭示他与众不同的人生抉择的原因。

The novels Peter Pan and Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens by the Scottish writer James Barric were created in the early 20th century. The protagonist Peter Pan has since then become a classic character in the woad literary corridor. He is much more than a boy that cannot grow up, more importantly; he is a boy that refuses to grow up, rendering him distinct from all the other children. Refusing to grow up is more than a life posture, rather; it is a life choice. The mythological and archetypal ap- proaches are employed to find the archetypes behind Peter Pan in the Hellenic mythos and Christian culture, so as to reveal his reasons for making such a different life option.
