小说《灿烂千阳》中的复调书写

On Polyphony in A Thousand Splendid Suns

小说《灿烂千阳》运用复调的技巧展示了杂语和它们各自所对应的意识,它们在共时作用下产生对峙,实现情节的急转和剧变,既是作者精湛写作技巧的展现,又是强烈情感的力量来源。各种杂语又进行对话,甚至在一个人物身上进行多种声音的对话,既推动了情节的发展,也揭示了阿富汗人的灵魂世界。对位法则下不般配的俯就、闹剧场面和临界点上的人物所体现的狂欢化精神则是对阿富汗男权世界的反抗。胡赛尼的复调书写是小说成功的原因所在,也体现了作者作为西方社会的穆斯林为打破偏见积极寻求该群体与西方主流社会对话的积极姿态。

A Thousand Splendid Suns adopts the strategy of polyphony,skillfully presenting heteroglossia and their embodied attitudes.Their coexistence and confrontation push the plot to develop and as well as bring about intense emotions.Various voices can be found even within one character.Consequently,the inner life of Afghanistans is revealed.Carnivalism implied in condenscendence,farce,and characters at their critical moments articulate a resistance against Afghan patriarchal society.At the same time,Khaled Hosseini’s successful application of polyphony serves as an effort to set free from prejudice about Afghanistan and pursue a dialogue between Muslim society and western mainstream society.
