现代人模仿欲望的困境--作为迫害文本的电影《理查德·朱维尔的哀歌》

The Dilemma of Modern People’s Mimetic Desire: Richard Jewell as a Persecution Text

电影《理查德·朱维尔的哀歌》作为一部典型的现代社会迫害文本,再现了集体暴力驱动引发的迫害事件。影片采用的是受害者叙事视角,使隐在的替罪羊机制转变为显在的替罪羊主题,高度还原了迫害事件。与前现代社会蒙昧造成的迫害不同,现代社会产生冲突与暴力的深层原因在于人类受制于欲望三角的模仿机制。现代人在欲望追寻过程中盲目崇奉欲望介体,导致欲望客体的迷失与错位。因此,只有摆脱欲望介体、打破欲望三角的模仿机制,欲望主体才能实现由偏斜超验向垂直超验的复归。

As a typical modern persecution text, the film Richard Jewell reproduces the persecution event driven by collective violence. The film adopts the perspective of victim narrative, which transforms the hidden scapegoat mechanism into the explicit scapegoat theme, and highly restores the persecution. Different from the persecution caused by ignorance in Pre-modern society, the deep root of conflict and violence in modern society is that human beings are subject to the mimetic mechanism of the desire triangle. In the process of pursuing the desire, modern people worship the desire mediator blindly, which leads to the loss and dislocation of the desire object. Therefore, only by getting rid of the desire mediator and breaking the mimetic mechanism of the desire triangle, can the subject of desire return from the deviated transcendence to vertical transcendence.
