论金宇澄《回望》的叙述视角

On Narrative Perspective of Looking Back by Jin Yucheng

金宇澄新作《回望》是一部讲述父母人生的回忆录作品,其以三重视角的叙述方式引发文坛关注。文本通过"我"替父言和母亲口述的方式对父母的生命历程进行了回溯和梳理,为了摆脱单一视角的局限,使用了多种视角转换的形式,以达到设置悬念和制造空白点的修辞效果。《回望》在叙述视角上的创新不仅实现了其作为非虚构文学追求真实客观性的需要,也实现了对人类主体性的建构,从"小历史"中窥探"大历史",以达到对现实、情感的双重超越。这种独特的叙述方式无疑是非虚构文学写作在叙述视角上的一种突破,成为这一文体在叙述艺术未来走向上的一种范例。

Jin Yucheng’s new work Looking Back,which is a memoir about the lives of parents,has triggered the concern of the literary world with his narrative style of three angles.The text traces back the life history of parents through ＂my＂dictation for father and mother’s dictation.In order to get rid of the limitations of single perspective,the author uses the transformation of a variety of perspectives,and achieves the rhetorical function of setting suspense and making a blank point.The innovation of narrative perspective in Looking Back not only fulfills its need of pursuing true objectivity as non-fictional literature,but also realizes the construction of human subjectivity,reviewing＂big history＂via＂small history＂to achieve the double surpassing of reality and emotion.This unique way of narration is undoubtedly a breakthrough in narrative perspectives of non-fictional literary writing,and agood example in describing the tendency of narrative art in non-fictional literature.
