20世纪初期哈萨克斯坦小说中韵文的叙事功能与伦理效果

The Narrative Function and Ethical Effect of Verse in the Early 20th-Century Kazakh Novels

散韵结合是20世纪初期哈萨克斯坦小说最突出的叙事特征,其中韵文的叙事功能和伦理价值主要表现有三。韵文以其明显的批判功能,明确小说的伦理劝谕和道德立场;韵文的表演功能在迎合小说隐含听众的同时,推动新道德准则的构建;韵文的抒情功能助力主人公代表女性发出了对封建道德的控诉,引发受众的极大共鸣,进一步促成小说伦理目标的达成。韵文的多重叙事功能和伦理价值,是哈萨克斯坦口头文学传统、作者的伦理目标和大众接受习惯共同作用下的结果,反映了社会转型时期哈萨克斯坦文学的整体风貌。

Prosimetrum is the most unique narrative feature in the early 20^(th)-century Kazakh novels. The narrative function and ethical value of verse are mainly shown in three aspects: first,the verse clearly has a critical function to clarify the ethical persuasion and moral position of the novel;second, its performance function promotes the construction of a new moral code while pandering to the implied audience of the novel;third, its lyrical function prompts the protagonist to denounce the feudal morality on behalf of women, which triggers a strong response from the audience and further contributes to the achievement of the ethical goals of the novel. The multi-layered narrative function and ethical value could only result from the joint effect of Kazakhstan’s oral literary traditions, the author’s ethical goals, and public reception norms, which reflects the overall style of the Kazakh literature during its social transformation.
