摘要
在美国作家E.L.多克托罗创作的小说《霍默与兰利》中,科利尔兄弟的住宅是一个具有博物馆性质的偏离异托邦,铭刻着美国的文化记忆,而霍默的自传式写作则具有镜式异托邦的意义,是一次边缘话语向主流历史叙事突围的过程。《霍默与兰利》中的异托邦叙事特征既寄寓了作者对媒介传播伦理的思考,又有多克托罗对同一性思维的批判和对人类城市生态发展的担忧,表达了他对美国例外论的质疑。
In Homer and Langley by E. L. Doctorow, the mansion of the Collyer brothers as part of American cultural memory is a heterotopia of deviation. Meanwhile, Homer's first-person-narration functions like a mirror, also a type of heterotopia, and serves as a counter-narrative to mainstream historical narration. Doctorow portrays the Collyer brothers with their heterotopias to reflect upon the ethics of the media, to criticize uniform thinking and to express his worries about urban ecology.
