经典改写与文化政治——以《福》对《鲁滨逊飘流记》的改写为例

Rewriting of Classics and Cultural Politics——The Rewriting of Robinson Crusoe into Foe as an Example

经典的形成绝不是孤立的文化现象,而是一个排他性的建构过程。在后殖民那里,经典带有深刻的历史情结和文化印痕,有着与帝国主义意识形态、文化权力纠缠不清的霸权、殖民意识,对其进行改写就成为一种必然。后殖民作家通过改写西方经典来解构其霸权地位,其中库切《福》对笛福作品《鲁滨逊飘流记》的重写彰显了消解西方文化霸权的策略,体现出强烈的文化政治诉求。

The formation of classics is not an isolated cultural phenomenon,but an exclusive construction process. In the post-colonial era,the classics bear profound historical complex and cultural imprint which are closely related to the imperialist ideology and culture power,and therefore it is of great necessity to rewrite those western classics so as to deconstruct the hegemony. For example,the rewriting of Robinson Crusoe into Foe highlights the strategy of dispelling western cultural hegemony,which reflects the strong cultural and political appeals.
