“我”与逝去的帝国——论“生命故事文学”与《寂静的原野》的作者形象

“I” and the Lost Empire:On Author's Image in Goldstein's Novel The Quiet Fields

亚历山大·戈尔德施坦是当代重要的以色列俄语作家。其"生命故事文学"的创作观以"个体人生故事"与文体创新为基础,探讨作者、文本、历史之间的血肉联系,主张凸显作者的地位,与维诺格拉多夫的作者形象说有诸多契合之处。长篇小说《寂静的原野》凝结了戈尔德施坦对20世纪文学和文论的思索,自传色彩浓郁,立场鲜明,讲述人"我"与作者本人的形象高度重合。通过"我"之话语的两个语层,作者探讨了口述录文体、书面文本和修辞手法与塑造自我形象的关系,并通过"我"的写作实践与多重文本之间的互文,对后殖民语境中俄罗斯文学的立场及命运发表了看法。

The Quiet Fields is written by the Russian-Israeli writer A. L. Goldstein. As one of the representative writers of the modern Russian-Jewish diaspora literature, Goldstein treated his novel as a rhetorical experiment, supported by his own literary concept ＂life-story literature,＂ which has a lot in common with V. Vinogradov＇s author-image theory. The author＇s image in this novel could be studied by analyzing the speech structure, which is divided into two main parts： the former can be categorized as the oral layer, in which ＇T＇ acts as the observer, whose narrative focuses on the difference between ＂the Self＇ and ＂the Other;＂ the latter centers around common people＇s ability of forming new texts, which serves as the main idea of the ＂life-story literature＂ theory; in this part the image ＇T＇ is shaped in the context of intertextuality, showing the destiny of the literature of the Russian Empire.
