“语言”问题——《威尼斯商人》的含混性

“Language”Problem——the Ambiguity of Merchant of Vinice

以"语言"问题为线索,通过"语言对语言的解构""行为对语言的解构""身份对语言的解构"三个方面阐述了"语言"这一要素是如何造成了文本含混的特征和读者理解的障碍;同时通过"夏洛克语言的胜利和失败""求婚情节中语言的欺骗与反转"两方面论述了"语言"如何建构文本的深层结构,力图阐明"语言"在分析人物、探求主旨方面的作用,并通过这个角度对围绕此剧的一些长久被争论的问题作出尝试性的解答。

This paper focuses on the problems of the “language”.Through two sections,it discusses the role of the “language”from the analysis of the characters and the interpretation of the purport.It also attempts to pro-vide some tentative answers to the questions which have been argued for a long time.The first section is based on the deconstruction of the language by language itself,by behaviour and by status,through which it demonstrates how the use of the language creates ambiguity and misunderstanding.The second section based on “the victory and defeat of Shylock’s language”and“the deception and the reversal of the language in the plot of the marriage proposal”discusses how the language constructs the hidden structure of the text.
