索尔·贝娄创作中的“大屠杀”阴影及其反思

The Shadows of the Holocaust and the Introspection on It in Saul Bellow's Works

索尔·贝娄在其创作中多次表达了他对纳粹大屠杀的诸多思考。文章通过散点透视,从其表现大屠杀的《受害者》《赛姆勒先生的行星》《贝拉罗莎暗道》《拉维尔斯坦》等几部重要小说中,分阶段地阐述其从20世纪40年代的"恐惧"和"受害"隐喻,到60、80年代直接的回忆性控诉和对历史记忆的反复强调,一直到21世纪最后一部作品中的类似遗嘱,阐明和缕析作家立足西方文化、普遍人性和人类历史维度书写"大屠杀"灾难所显示出来的深厚内涵和警示意义。这种具有宏阔视野的反思方式也是贝娄在文学上的贡献。
