色彩、空间与身体焦虑——《金色笔记》主题研究

Color,Space and Physical Anxiety——On the Theme of The Golden Notebook

多丽丝·莱辛的代表作《金色笔记》虽已跻身英国文学经典之列,然而小说中最显著的色彩问题却未引起学界足够关注。莱辛对黑红黄蓝金五种颜色的选择是对现代社会的空间书写。身体作为空间的原点、目的和终点,参与了莱辛对现代空间的建构。小说并不拘泥于单一主题,而是以色彩、空间和身体焦虑为核心对整个时代特点进行立体刻画。

Although Doris Lessing’s representative work The Golden Notebook has entered the ranks of British literary classics,the most prominent issue of color in the novel has not received sufficient attention from the academic community.Lessing’s choice of black,red,yellow,blue and gold is a spatial representation of modern society.The body,as the origin,purpose,and endpoint of space,participated in Lessing’s construction of modern space.The novel is not confined to a single theme,but rather uses color,space and physical anxiety as the core to depict the characteristics of the entire era in a three-dimensional manner.
