论动物形象在艾特玛托夫小说中的作用

On The Animals' Roles in A TMaTOB's Novels

除了众多深入人心的人物形象之外,艾特玛托夫还为读者描绘了一个鲜活的动物世界,其中的主角形态各异,有着丰富的情感世界。这些充满灵性的动物不再是作品中可有可无的道具,它们与人物形象一样丰满重要。它们不再仅仅只协助铺展故事情节,提供情节转折的契机,而是积极参与人物的生活,成为作品中的另一主角,反映人类社会,观照人生,映衬人间善恶,具有多重作用。本文欲从生态伦理的角度来分析艾氏多部作品中出现的动物形象在协助阐释作者生态思想方面所起的作用,并进一步指出人与动物、与自然自古就存在姻缘纽带,动物也与人类一样有着丰富的情感世界,是人类的兄弟,理应得到人类的关照和尊重;人类善待万物生灵,与自然和谐相处是构建整个生态和谐的基础,也是确保整个生态系统健康和谐发展的重要条件。
