形象学视域下的《菊子夫人》研究

A Study of Madame Chrysanthème from the Perspective of Imagologie

一个流传在西方上百年的亚洲人形象蝴蝶夫人,对其最好的评价就是"脸谱化"。蝴蝶夫人是由多部文学艺术作品共同塑造而成的,且是不断变化的。蝴蝶夫人最早源自于法国彼埃尔·洛帝根据自己在日本的经历写成的日记体小说《菊子夫人》。《菊子夫人》是一部涉外题材的作品,属于比较文学形象学研究的范围。以形象学为理论依据进行分析,可以看出洛帝在作品中塑造的异国人形象艺伎菊子夫人,代表着注视者西方对日本女性的看法:日本女性是庸俗的不贞洁的。洛帝在作品中引导了这一集体想象物。

Madame Butterfly, an image of Asians, has circulated in the western world for hundred of years.Madame Butterfly is created in works of literature and art,and it is changing.The origin of this image and the original text is Madame Chrysanthème,which was written by Pierre Loti and is based on the author's personal experience in Japan. The work is a product of cross civilization. Analysis from the perspective of imagologie indicates that the foreign image Madame Chrysanthème represents the western view on Japanese women: vulgar and sexually promiscuous,and Japanese women are defined as the ultimate sex symbol. Loti directed the imaginaire social.
