From Me to We:A Study of the Others′ Identity in "Jungle Book"

罗德亚德·吉卜林是二十世纪英国小说家、诗人。其作品《丛林故事》对故事中人物的他者身份进行了探索,作品反映他者的身份形成与身体外形、成长的文化背景以及自身独特的经历和思想有关,这也是他者获得主流社会身份认同的障碍。但作品也暗示了这种差异并非永恒不变,并积极探索了他者通过自身努力,融入主流社会的可能性。

Rudyard Kipling is a British novelist and poet of the 20th century. His ＂Jungle Book＂ explores the characters＇ identity as others, whose identity is formed with their different body shapes, the cultural backgrounds of growth and their own unique experiences and ideas, which are the obstacles to acquire their identity in a mainstream society. However, after carefully read, the work seems to suggest that the differences are not constant, and it also actively explores the possibility for the others to integrate them into the mainstream society through their own efforts.
