从神话原型读《一个青年艺术家的画像》

An Interpretation of A Portrait of a Young Artist from Myth Archetype

神话原型在詹姆斯·乔伊斯的《一个青年艺术家的画像》中占据了核心地位。主人公斯蒂芬·代达罗斯(Stephen Dedalus)跟随了圣徒斯蒂芬的名字,同时又跟随了希腊神话中的著名艺术家代达罗斯的姓氏。"斯蒂芬·代达罗斯"是主人公命运的预言,是圣徒斯蒂芬和希腊神话中代达罗斯原型模式的置换变形,有着深刻的象征意义。

Myth archetype plays a central role in James Joyce’s A Portrait of a Young Artist. The protagonist of the painting Stephen Dedalus, was named after saint Stephen’s name,and the surname of the famous artist Dedalus in Greek Myth. “Stephen Dedalus” is the prophecy of the protagonist’s destiny, and the transformation of the revelatory archetype of Saint Stephen and the famous artist Dedalus in Greek Myth, containing profound symbolization.
