“画作斩断了历史的锚链”——从画作《梅杜萨之筏》解读被艺术化了的历史

Interpreting Literature History from the Painting “Raft of Medusa

当代英国小说家朱利安·巴恩斯在其小说《10?章世界史》中用拼贴的艺术手法,展现了历史的不可靠性。历史被个人化,艺术化,精神化了。文章着重提取小说第五章的第二部分,与巴恩斯一起品评籍里柯的名画《梅杜萨之筏》。由于画家对艺术的追求和观者受时代与个人限制,被艺术化的历史事件,其"真实性"已经微乎其微了。

The British novelist Julian Barnes uses the collage method in the novel A History of the World in 10？Chapters to display the unreliability of the history and history in the novel was personalized, conformed to art and spiritualized. The paper abstracts the the second part of Chapter Five of the novel and puts emphasis on the painting of ＂Raft of Medusa＂ to make a comment on the novel. The paper concludes that due to the artists＇ artistic pursuit and the viewers＇ personal knowledge and era limitations, the truth of the historic events is little left behind.
