科幻英雄的神话之旅——论《一无所有》中的仪式思维

The Myth Journey of a Sci-Fi Hero:On the Ritual Thinking in The Dispossessed

小说《一无所有》中,主人公谢维克在两个星球间的跨界之行,是神话英雄之旅的重演,也是原始成人礼仪的再现,蕴含着古老而深邃的仪式思维。这一旅程联通过去与未来、理想与现实、科学与宗教,架起一座沟通神圣与世俗的桥梁,既是空间过渡礼仪,也是精神过渡礼仪。它以有形的旅程、可见的距离,来消解人与人、人与社会、人与神之间无形的隔阂,为旧的结构注入新的活力,缓解由差异引起的矛盾、焦虑和敌意。

In the novel The Dispossessed,the cross-boundary trip between the two planets by the hero Shevek is a replay of the hero’s journey,and also a representation of the primitive rites of initiation,which contains the ancient and profound ritual thinking.This journey connects the past and the future,ideal and reality,science and religion,and builds a bridge between the sacred and the secular.It is not only a transition rite of space,but also a transition rite of spirit.With tangible journey and visible distance,it eliminates the invisible estrangement between man and man,man and society,man and God,infuses the old structure with new vitality,and relieves the contradiction,anxiety and hostility caused by difference.
