山水田园诗的生态家园意识探析——以王维《山居秋暝》及其英译为例

Analysis of Ecological Home Consciousness in Pastoral Landscape Poetry:Taking Wang Wei’s Autumn Evening in the Mountains and Its English Versions as an Example

家园意识作为生态美学的核心范畴之一,凝聚了人类对当下的存在状态、居住环境及自我的独特思考。王维的山水田园诗清新秀丽,蕴含着深厚的生态家园意识。文章以系统功能语言学及物性系统为理论框架,通过对唐代诗人王维的《山居秋暝》一诗及其三个英译本进行生态话语分析,来探讨诗人所构建的自然家园、社会家园和精神家园。研究发现,《山居秋暝》及其英译本通过物质过程赋予非生命体参与者以生命特征构建出一个清新灵动的自然家园;通过生命体参与者的言语过程和物质过程构建出一个勤劳和睦的社会家园;通过赋有特殊意境的物理性场所参与者和非人类生命体参与者构建出一个闲静淡雅的精神家园。

Home Consciousness is one of the core categories in Ecological Aesthetics,which is composed of the unique thinking of human beings towards existential state,habitat and self.The pure and fresh pastoral landscape poetry written by Wang Wei is full of profound home consciousness.This paper attempts to explore the natural home,social home and spiritual home constructed in Wang Wei’s poem Autumn Evening in the Mountains and its three English versions from the perspective of Transitivity in Systemic Functional Linguistics.It is found that in the original text and its English versions,a fresh and vital natural home is constructed via the material process by endowing the inanimate participants with living features,an industrious and harmonious social home is constructed through the combination of material process and verbal process by animate participants,and a serene and elegant spiritual home is constructed through the physical place inanimate participants with special conceptions and nonhuman animate participants.
