石黑一雄新时期小说的社会伦理关怀

Social Ethic Concern in Kazuo Ishiguro’s New-period Novels

诺奖作家石黑一雄的作品始终饱含浓厚的伦理色彩,尤其是其新时期小说《别让我走》《小夜曲:音乐与黃昏五故事集》《被掩埋的巨人》等对伦理问题的关注已拓展至社会层面,并展现出时空上的内在连贯性:回望历史的余烬,战争社会中的正义追寻显出悖谬;聚焦现实的危机,经济社会中功利主义的渗透无处不在;面向未来的隐患,科技社会中的人性受到工具理性的严峻挑战。统观这三部作品,石黑一雄倡导和平、抵抗异化、警惕科技的社会伦理关怀得到了深刻呈现,富有现实意义。

Kazuo Ishiguro’s works have always been full of strong ethical color,such as Never Let Me Go;Nocturnes:Five Stories of Music and Nightfall;The Buried Giant,etc.and the attention to ethical issues in these novels has been extended to the social aspect.Facing history,justice in war society shows paradox.Facing reality,utilitarianism permeates everywhere in economic society.Facing the future,human nature in science and technology society is severely challenged by instrumental rationality.Ishiguro’s social ethical concern of advocating peace,resisting alienation and being alert to science and technology has been deeply presented in his works,which is full of practical significance.
