从鸟的意象管窥哈代的生态观

Analysis of Hardy's Ecological View from the Perspective of Bird Image

托马斯·哈代将人与自然置于平等的位置之上,因而时常借助自然意象来抒发内心情感,体现事物的文化内涵,而鸟的意象是哈代使用得最为频繁的自然意象。在形象塑造方面,哈代将人物与鸟的意象并置,使人物更加立体生动;在情绪表现方面,他使用鸟鸣声让情感更加具象化;在命运走向语言方面,将人物命运与鸟的行动深深连结,最终发现自然力的不可违背,唯有心怀敬畏,与之共生共荣,现代人疲乏的精神和肉体才有得到抚慰与复苏的可能。

Thomas Hardy considers nature as important as human beings. Hardy shows special preference to bird, which is the dominant natural image in his writings. In terms of image-building, Hardy prefers to connect images to birds, making the figures full of spirituality. In terms of emotional expression, he describes people＇s emotional states more vivid and alive with the help of bird image. In terms of fated predicting, he associated people＇s destiny with birds by using bird image appro- priately, in this case, readers can find that human beings cannot disobey the nature rules. When human beings regard nature with awe and live in harmony with nature, the mental and physical exhaustion of modem people can be comforted and re- lieved.
