尔维娅·普拉斯之死——三重压力下的爆发与灭亡

The Explosion and Perdition Caused by the Triple Burdens

作为自白派的代表诗人,西尔维娅.普拉斯在她短暂的一生中始终没有建立完整的自我意识。尽管大多数研究者都将其死亡归咎于其丈夫——英国著名诗人泰德.休斯,但笔者始终认为,她早年怨恨父亲的辞世,青年纠结于母亲教育的期盼,成年后深陷在被丈夫抛弃的悲伤中无法自拔,她生命中最重要也最亲近的三个人,共同构成了中介普拉斯生命的"凶手"。三重重压,既是这位才女迸发才情的点金石,也是加速这个可怜女人走向灭亡的助推器。

As the representative of Confessional poets, Sylvia Plath failed to establish a complete self-consciousness of herself all through her short life. Most researchers have blamed her husband for her death-- the famous English poet, Ted Hughes, but the author still believes that her life was terminated collectively by the three persons closest to her, namely her father who she hated the most for having died during her childhood, her mother whose strong anticipation on her education left her no choice but reluctance when in youth and her husband who had trapped her in deep sorrow after his abandonment of her as an adult. The triple burdens were both the helping hand to release her talents and pushing hand of the death of this miserable woman.
