摘要
在亨利·詹姆斯的著名小说《金碗》中,主要人物玛吉·韦维尔总是在一种平衡意识的支配下活动。她在人物关系中建立并维持一种平衡,以求达到力量对等,由此主导了小说情节发展。直到一个符合社会标准和人物期望的平衡关系形成,持久的幸福才得以实现。通过运用结构主义诗学分析人物关系中力量分布的变化,解密玛吉的平衡意识,从而挖掘文本之下潜藏的詹姆斯的平衡观。
In The Golden Bowl by Henry James,the main character Maggie Verver always acts on the idea of equilibrium.She tends to set up and maintain a balance within relations of characters like weighing with a scale,in this way leading the development of the plot.True and durable happiness is finally obtained when a balanced relation is formed both following social norms and answering characters’desires.Through analyzing the changing distributions in the relations with the framework of structuralism,Maggie’s idea of equilibrium is deciphered,and thus the underlying Jamesian belief of equilibrium is explored.
