《爱的历史》:后记忆语境下的第三代大屠杀叙事

The History of Love: Remembering the Holocaust in the Post-Memory Context

第三代大屠杀文学是当代美国犹太文学的重要组成部分。在第一代亲身经历和第二代观察记忆双重缺失的后记忆时代,第三代作家试图通过想象性创作,以再现文本的文本之方式与大屠杀取得联系。妮可·克劳斯小说《爱的历史》因其多重叙事声音、大屠杀隐性在场、大屠杀美国化、后现代及其超越的书写特征,成为后记忆时代第三代大屠杀文学的典范。

Unlike authors of the first and second-generation Holocaust literature in the Unites States, third-generation Jewish American novelists inevitably rely on imagination when representing the Holocaust in the post-memory context. Nicole Krauss＇ s award-winning novel The History of Love adopts highly crafted representational strategies, such as multiple narrative voices, indirect references to the Holocaust, and Americanization of the Holocaust, exemplifying how third-generation writers manage to access the past via imagination.
