《百种神秘感觉》的叙事空间

The Narrative Space of The Hundred Secret Senses

小说《百种神秘感觉》的叙事空间由"地志的空间""社会的空间"和"文本的空间"3部分构成。小说里的"地志的空间"分别是中国的"唱绵"和美国的"旧金山"。它们成为作者介绍时代背景、讲述人物行动和推动故事情节的客观依存,也是文本里特定的象征符号;"社会的空间"是社会关系的表征,反映了围绕奥莉维亚形成的抵触——接受——升华的亲情关系和理想——冷淡——和谐的婚姻关系;"文本的空间"显现为选用了具有地域差异的语言和跳跃迂回的次序。

The Hundred Secret Senses is an attractive masterpiece written by Amy Tan. Its narrative space is consisted of the ＂topographical structure＂,the ＂social structure＂and the ＂textual structure＂. The ＂topographical structure＂in the novel includes China＇s ＂Changmian＂,and America＇s ＂San Francisco＂. They not only support the historical backgrounds,actions and plots,but also become the specific symbols in the text. The ＂social structure＂indicates the social relations in the novel. Around Olivia,there are resistible- acceptable- sublimated familial affection and ideal- cold- harmonious marriage. The ＂textual structure＂represents the language with regional differences and the circuitous order.
