《幸运的吉姆》中的新类型“反英雄”及其双重美学形塑

在《幸运的吉姆》中,艾米斯塑造了一个带有鲜明时代特色的新类型"反英雄"。本文对这一"反英雄"形象重新进行解读与分析,指出这一形象不同于20世纪英美文学中的其他"反英雄"形象,认为艾米斯的人物塑造艺术不是简单地回归经典现实主义,而是隐含着对经典现实主义所承载的道德文化与价值观念的摒弃。此外,艾米斯也在不自觉地挪用或借用现代主义创作技巧,其笔下的"反英雄"是现实主义与现代主义双重美学形塑下的产物。

This paper is intended to re-interpret Jim Dixon,the protagonist in Kingsley Amis' Lucky Jim,as a new type of"anti-hero",which differs from those in the history of British literature.It argues that Kingsley Amis's art of characterization is not simply a return to classic realism,but a rejection of its moral culture and ethical values.Furthermore,Amis employs modernist techniques and alludes to modernist works,so that such an“anti-hero”is a product of both realist and modernist aesthetics combined unknowingly in the novel.
