才华并非天赋——《天赋》与俄罗斯文学传统

Talent is not a Gift——The Gift and Russian Literature

从内容形式和创作手法上看,《天赋》是一部典型的元小说,它是关于创作的创作,小说中的小说。虽然《天赋》以激进的方式与传统小说告别了,但纳博科夫正是通过它,宣告了自己与俄罗斯文学传统的血肉联系:俄罗斯文学是作品真正的主角,俄罗斯文学传统不仅鼎力支持了小说男主人公费奥多尔·戈都诺夫天赋的成长,也成就了《天赋》,它成为作家写得最好的一部俄语小说作品。

From the content,form and skills of creation,The Gift is a typical metafiction.It is about the creation in creation,the novel in novel.Although The Gift is a modern fiction,Nabokov,declares the close relationship with Russian literary tradition： Russian literature is the real heroine of the novel,Russian literary tradition not only supports the talent＇s growth of Fyodor,the hero,but also makes The Gift successful：it becomes the writer＇s best one of Russian novels.
