复活钝化的生活感知——《他究竟是已死或仍活着?》中的陌生化艺术

The Revival of the Passivated Perception of Life——The Art of Defamiliarization in “Is He living or is He dead?”

马克·吐温的短篇小说《他究竟是已死或仍活着?》通过陌生化的艺术处理和布局,深刻揭露了被资本主义异化的社会、人性,使读者在习惯化感知的影响下也能以新奇的目光在阅读过程中获得陌生的审美体验,激发人们对早已习焉不察的生活产生新的发现和反省,复活钝化的生活感知。

Using the technique of defamiliarization, Mark Twain＇s short novel ＂Is He living or is He dead？＂ discloses the alienated society and humanity by capitalism. It forces and stimulates the readers to gain the unfamiliar aesthetic experience with a fancy interest under the influence of habitual perception, to rediscover and introspect life in which people have got used to living in and revives the passivated perception of life.
