美在爱与自由——《呼唤》中女性生存美学解读

The Beauty Lies in Love and Freedom——Interpreting the Female Existence Aesthetics in The Touch

澳大利亚女作家考琳·麦卡洛的小说《呼唤》被西方文坛誉为作者"继《荆棘鸟》之后,最成功的家族小说和爱情传奇"。小说以细腻而生动的笔触成功刻画了茹贝、伊丽莎白、内尔等各具个性而鲜活逼真的女性人物形象。她们对爱与自由锲而不舍的孜孜追求改变了各自的命运并将她们的生活"塑造成艺术品"。作者这一女性生存美学思想给当下的女性生存提供了难能可贵的参照和启示。

The Touch by the Australian novelist, Colleen MeCullough is considered to be her most successful family saga and romance after The Thorn Birds. In this novel, McCullough, in an exquisite and lifelike style, successfully portrays such vivid characters as Ruby, Elizabeth and Neill, whose persistent pursuit of love and freedom changes their own fate and moulds their life into ＂a work of art＂. This thought by McCullough on female existence aesthetics serves as valuable reference and inspiration for the present female existence.
