摘要
《红、黑与无知》是当代英国左翼剧作家爱德华·邦德应“乔治·奥威尔逝世35周年纪念活动”之邀而创作的一部悲剧。该剧以类似于奥威尔在《一九八四》中所采用的未来叙事手法,把戏剧情节置于世界末日之中,描绘出核爆炸和极权统治笼罩下的人类生命共同体危机。该剧通过展示怪兽父子的伦理困境和伦理选择,书写出极权对血缘共同体、地缘共同体和精神共同体的戕害,批判了极权对生命共同体的消弭,体现出邦德对奥威尔极权书写方式和批判思想的继承与发展。
Red,Black and Ignorant was a tragedy created by the modern left-wing British dramatist Edward Bond for the 35th anniversary of George Orwell's death.Similar to Orwell's futuristic narrative in Nineteen Eighty-Four,the play sets the plot of the drama in the end of the world,depicting the crisis of the future human community under the cloud of nuclear explosion and totalitarian rule.By showing the ethical dilemma and ethical choice of the monster and his son,the play not only describes the destruction of totalitarianism to the blood community,the geographical community and the spiritual community,but also criticizes the destruction of totalitarianism to the life community.The whole play reflects Bond's inheritance and development of Orwell's totalitarian writing and critical thought.
