摘要
动物形象几乎穿插于爱尔兰现代民族寓言《尤利西斯》中的每一章中。首先,借助于这些动物,乔伊斯传达出多重关于“他者”以及“他者的他者”的诸种辛酸。在《尤利西斯》中,动物既以人类“他者”的形象出现,又以殖民者“他者”的形象出现,主要被殖民者用来喻示爱尔兰人的低等性、顺从性和可怖性。其次,动物意象也被用以喻示殖民者与被殖民者之间相互书写、相互定义的随意性和荒诞性。再次,动物意象还被用来传达作者理想的动物观,即人类与其他物种一律平等的思想。最后,《尤利西斯》的作者也难逃物种主义的幽灵侵扰。
In Ulysses, the modern national epic of Ireland, there are images of animals almost in every chapter. Firstly, through these images of animals, Joyce expresses various kinds of bitterness and hardship of the Other and the Other of the Other. In Ulysses, animals are the images of the Other of human beings and the Other of the colonialists, which are mainly used by the colonizers to show the inferiority, the obedience and the threat of the colonized.Secondly, the images of animals are exploited to reveal the arbitrariness and absurdity in the mutual definition and presentation between the colonizers and the colonized. Thirdly, the images of animals are also employed to express the author’s ideals about animals, that is, humans and other animals should be equal. Finally, it is very hard for the author of Ulysses to be free from the haunting of the spectre of speciesism.
