爱的缺位与呼唤——论伊丽莎白·亚历山德罗娃-佐林娜小说的道德诉求

The Absence of Love and the Appeal for Love——On the Moral Pursuit in E. Alexandrova-Zorina's Short Stories

女作家伊丽莎白·亚历山德罗娃-佐林娜是俄罗斯当代文学"三十岁一代"作家群中的佼佼者。她的小说虚实结合、风格独特,多以祖国历史和当下实际为背景,讲述当代女性与社会、生与死的故事,既有现实情节,又有魔幻桥段,兼具俄国批判现实主义文学和欧美现代派文学的特质。以小说集《女反叛者》为中心,考察其创作中的女性主义主题和后现代风格,从女性与城市化浪潮、女性与生和死主题、象征和隐喻等后现代手法的运用诸方面加以分析,揭示其创作背后的道德诉求是由城市化浪潮下现代社会中爱的缺位所引发的对爱的呼唤。

Elizabeth Alexandrova-Zorina is one of the most outstanding Russian writers of ＂the generation in the 30s＂. Her novels and short stories are famous for the magical mix of reality and fantasy. Based on the history and actuality of Russia, her writings focus on the conflicts between the contemporary women and modern metropolises, telling the encounters of ordinary people with the problems of life and death. The realistic elements and magical features of her writing are the characteristics inherited respectively from Russian critical realistic literature and Euro-Ameriean post-modern literature. With her short story collection The Woman Rebel as a case in point, this paper examines the feminist themes and the style of post-modern literature in her writings. The paper analyzes women＇s fate in the wave of urbanization, female theme of giving birth and life and death, post-modern literary symbols and metaphors and attempts to reveal that the moral pursuit of Alexandrova-Zorina＇ s writing is the appeal for love which is lost and absent in the urbanization of modem society.
