迷失于颠倒的表象世界--景观社会理论视域下的《白噪音》

Lost in the Upside-Down World of Representation-White Noise from the Perspective of Spectacular Society Theory

在《白噪音》中,唐·德里罗笔下的社会生活成了消费景观,人们的价值观和日常行为均受控于极具穿透力与影响力的媒介影像。休闲娱乐在无所不在的文化意识操纵下沦为促进生产消费的变相形式,人们陷入了集体孤独之中。人的主体性逐渐消解,真实的自我被掩盖,取而代之的是为追求非真实的景观式名望而创造出的虚假身份。人们执行着景观社会的隐性指令,变得冷漠、失去判断力、陷入死亡恐惧危机。本文通过揭露《白噪音》景观社会中的谎言和幻影,更加深刻地剖析被景观支配的社会个体及其面临的精神困境,呼吁人们回归日常生活的本真,跳出景观社会的束缚,实现自我解放。

In White Noise,the social life described by Don DeLillo has become a consumption landscape,and people’s values and daily behaviors are controlled by media images with great penetration and influence.Leisure and entertainment have been reduced to a disguised form of promoting production and consumption under the manipulation of ubiquitous cultural awareness,and people have fallen into collective loneliness.Human subjectivity is gradually dissolving,and the true self is concealed,replaced by false identities created for the pursuit of unreal spectacle-style fame.Following the implicit instructions of the landscape society,people become indifferent,lose their judgment,and fall into a crisis of fear of death.By exposing the lies and phantoms in the landscape society of White Noise,this paper analyzes the social individuals dominated by the landscape and the spiritual predicaments they face,and calls on people to return to the true nature of their daily life,jump out of the shackles of the landscape society,and realize themselves.liberation.
