论《管家》对家园概念的重构

On the Reconstruction of the Conception of Home in Housekeeping

自我身份的探寻始终存在于玛丽莲·罗宾逊小说《管家》的象征世界与符号世界的对话性叙述中。贯穿于事实和想象两个层面的复调叙述丰富了关于人物记忆、原初生活与未来选择的意义阐释,从而消解了居家与漂泊、留守与流浪的对立关系,修正了传统的家园概念。

Seeking for Self-identity is a consistent issue existing in the dialogical narrative between symbolic and semiotic realms in Housekeeping by Marilynne Robinson. The polyphonic narrative well-versed in the two levels of fact and imagination enriches the interpretation of the characters＇ memory, the original life and the choice for the future, thereby dissolving the opposition between domesticity and homelessness, left-behind and transience and correcting the traditional conception of home.
