论雷切尔·卡森的“海洋三部曲”的生态整体主义思想

On the Ecological Holism in Rachel Carson's“Sea Trilogy”

本文聚焦美国作家、生态学家雷切尔·卡森的"海洋三部曲",探讨其海洋作品蕴含的伦理观念与生态思想;认为卡森描绘了海洋之美及海洋生物的多样性与复杂性,反对人类以科技手段破坏海洋生态系统。她虽未使用"生态"一词,"海洋三部曲"却客观反映其生态整体主义思想:每一海洋物种都有独特的生命价值,是海洋生态系统中不可或缺的一环。人类作为地球上获益最多的生物族群,应该承担起生态责任、维护环境正义,实现人类自身与自然界的和谐、可持续发展。

This paper focuses on the American writer and ecologist Rachel Carson＇s ＂sea trilogy＂ and explores her ecological thoughts. It shows that Carson describes the beauty of the ocean and the diversity and complexity of the marine lives, and she opposes the destruction of marine ecosystems by means of science and technology. Though Carson seldom uses the word ＂ecology＂, her ＂sea trilogy＂ objectively reflects the ecological hohsm： each marine species has its unique value and is an essential part in the marine ecosystem. Human beings should take the ecological responsibility to maintain the environmental justice so as to achieve the harmony between man and nature as well as the sustainable development.
