《小王子》中的三维叙述空间构建

The Construction of Three- Dimensional N arrative Space in The Little Prince

《小王子》的叙述空间存在于三个维度。故事设置的地理空间是小说的第一空间维度,它包括了地球的撒哈拉沙漠、小王子的星球和途中经历的宇宙中的其他几个星球。故事发生时的特定社会文化空间构成了小说的第二空间维度。该小说具有特殊的社会背景,在这个社会文化空间下,很多人虚伪、盲目、不懂生活的意义。故事中建构的第三维度空间是人物的心理空间,叙述者"我"充满了复杂的心理,既有一份天真,还混杂着一些世俗人们的典型心理;小王子则是小说中真、善、美的化身。《小王子》在这样的三维空间内构建了一个启示世人的故事。
