摘要
理查德·鲍尔斯的小说《回声制造者》以脑科学为依托,围绕一张神秘字条形成伦理结并串联成为伦理线,体现伦理冲突与伦理问题的形成、发展与演变的叙事进程。通过神秘字条呈现的多元意义,小说逐渐生成化解伦理冲突、解决伦理问题、召唤伦理秩序的叙事力量。《回声制造者》中横纵交织的伦理结构勾勒出深陷后"9·11"时代伦理困境的个体,在"联结"自我与他人的过程中探寻伦理出路的历程。以"回声制造者"为隐喻,鲍尔斯彰显了在个体与他者之间建立"联结"为回应的后"9·11"时代伦理建构愿景。
Based on neuroscience and brain science,American novelist Richard Powers’The Echo Maker externalizes the individuals’self cognition in the post-9/11 era by means of a"note"which comprises the ethical structure through the text.It serves not only as a driving force linking ethical knots into ethical line but also as an ethical power of transcending crisis.Thus,Powers attempts to pierce the post-9/11 ethical chaos and to construct the ethical"intersection"between the self and the other with the metaphor of"the echo maker".
