《天黑前的夏天》中的西马式乌托邦空间

Interpretation of Western Marxism's Utopian Space of The Summer Before the Dark

多丽丝·莱辛特别关注女性的精神世界,其作品《天黑前的夏天》通过地理空间的转移,表现女主人公对自我存在的探索。女主人公经历自我相遇及自我回归,在自我接受后收复个体原有的自由生存空间,改变非人化的生存状态,突破同一化的精神奴役,从日常觉知中开展对"尚未"的内在追求,创建西马式的乌托邦空间。莱辛以其独特的空间感知,既反衬了当下西马式乌托邦空间的缺失,也为人类生存困惑提供了出路。

Doris Lessing has special insight into the spiritual world of females. Her work, The Summer Before the Dark, conveys the self exploration of the heroin through three times changes of places. Experiencing the self encoutering and self returning, the heroin retrieves her original living space, overthrows the inhumanized existence state and breaks through the identically spiritual enslavement after self acceptance. She begins inner pursuit of ＂ not yet＂ （das-Noch-Nicht） originating from daily life and creates a western Marxism Utopia space. Through the unique perception of space, Lessing not only expresses the absence of western Marxism Utopia space nowadays but also provides the outlet to relieve from living perplexity.
