摘要
《少年Pi的奇幻漂流》为加拿大作家扬·马特尔所著,是一部生存历险小说,曾获英国曼布克奖。作品讲述了一人一虎在南太平洋上漂流227天终获新生的故事,在行文中运用了大量的隐喻,并以隐喻折射出文学作品背后所隐含的哲理。本文从文学伦理学批评的角度对该作品中的隐喻进行了评价并对其中反映的伦理学问题进行了反思,认为作品中的重要隐喻与主要伦理线相呼应,少年Pi这一形象体现了斯芬克斯因子的一体两面,人性因子与兽性因子之间压制与反压制的抗争是长期的过程,理性终将通过伦理选择而获得。
Life of PL written by Yann Martel, won the Award of Man Brook in 2002. It is an adventure novel, which is about the story of a young boy and a tiger on the South Pacific. This paper discusses the significant metaphors in this novel as well as its philosophical and ethical issues. The paper holds that the two main metaphors in this book echo with the main ethical line. The character of Pi reflects the two sides of Sphinx factor, i.e. rational factor and animal factor, the conflict between which is a long-term process, but final rationality will be obtained through ethical choice.
