毁灭之爱:小说《洛丽塔》中的爱欲与杀欲

The Doomed Love: Eros and Thanatos in Lolita

在小说《洛丽塔》中,作者纳博科夫将主人公亨伯特疯狂的内心世界刻画得淋漓尽致。而其中,亨伯特对其十二岁的继女洛丽塔的爱欲(Eros)与杀欲(Thanatos)更是得到了近乎完美的诠释。运用弗洛伊德的爱欲与杀欲理论,通过对小说文本的细读,聚焦分析小说主人公亨伯特为满足其疯狂爱欲的种种卑劣行径以及其杀欲的微妙凸显。在探讨亨伯特竭力想要改变爱欲稍纵即逝本质的百般徒劳的同时,围绕其对洛丽塔杀欲的呈现,从显性层面和隐性层面做出剖析,循序渐进地阐明亨伯特对洛丽塔的变态爱欲心理终将踏入杀欲的境地,从而揭示出亨伯特最终杀欲的实现是造成其自身与洛丽塔的双重毁灭的根源所在。

In Vladimir Nabokov’s masterpiece Lolita, Humbert’s Eros and Thanatos for his step daughter Lolita have been perfectly presented. Based on Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalysis theory on Eros and Thanatos, through detailed reading of the text, the author mainly focuses on Humbert’s attempts to fulfill his deformed Eros and his final endeavor to realize Thanatos. It analyzes the several futile attempts that Hunbert chooses to satisfy his Eros, explores his struggles to change the ephemeral nature of Eros, and exposes the inevitable outcome of Thanatos caused by his deformed Eros.
