生态诗人杰弗斯与中国佛道思想

耿纪永　陈　楠

内容提要：罗宾逊·杰弗斯是美国著名生态诗人，亦是美国西海岸的风云人物。与斯奈德和雷克斯罗斯等生态诗人相比，他与中国的因缘受到的关注较少。事实上，他与中国佛道思想渊源颇深，常在作品中表达对中国佛道思想的看法。他从定居加州开始接触佛道，因对分析心理学和宗教人文主义的兴趣加深了对佛道思想的了解。他的战争观映照了他对道家“无为”思想的诠释，“非人本主义”生态思想在道家美学影响之下的山水画与山水诗中找到了理想图景，生态整体观在佛禅中找到共鸣，未来观的形成则可以在道家“阴阳永恒”思想中找到痕迹。中国佛道思想在其独特的生态观念形成中发挥了重要作用，也一定程度上成就了其当代著名生态诗人的身份。

Title: Ecological Poet Robinson Jeffers and Chinese Buddhist and Daoist Thought

ABSTRACT: Robinson Jeffers is a famous American ecological poet on the West Coast. His ties to China have received less attention than those of other ecological poets such as Gary Snyder and Kenneth Rexroth. In fact, he has a profound connection with Chinese Buddhist and Daoist thought and often expresses related views in his works. After settling in California, he encountered Buddhism and Daoism, and his interest in analytical psychology and religious humanism prompted him to deepen his understanding of Chan Buddhist and Daoist thought. His view on war reflects his interpretation of the Daoist concept of wuwei. His ecological concept of inhumanism has found ideal expression in landscape painting and landscape poetry, both under the influence of Daoist aesthetics. His ecological holism has found resonance in Chan Buddhism, and his view on the future can be partly traced to the Daoist idea of eternal yin and yang. Chinese Buddhist and Daoist thought has played an important role in the formation of his unique ecological vision and has, to some extent, contributed to his identity as a famous contemporary ecological poet.

论《地下铁道》中的全球棉花经济网络

刘翠翠　石平萍

内容提要：关于科尔森·怀特海德小说《地下铁道》的全球视野及其与棉花这一叙事元素的关系，研究有待深入。本文借助简·本内特的新物质主义理论概念和塞德里克·罗宾逊等马克思主义学者对于资本主义相关问题的洞见，分析小说中围绕棉花所构建的全球经济网络，及该网络中棉花与黑人、爱尔兰移民、美国南方乡村交织缠绕的关系，展现全球棉花经济网络中行动者能动力的差异性，揭示其背后的种族资本主义逻辑及殖民主义行径。小说中，被强行卷入全球棉花经济网络的黑人沦为物；在资本主义全球化的不同时期，世界棉花经济网络结构不同，黑人被棉花资本操控的方式各异，但后者所施展能动力的背后始终是资本主义经济利益。资本与种族主义意识形态的合谋导致全球棉花经济网络中同居于底层的黑人与爱尔兰移民无法协同施展能动力，对抗棉花资本主义。工业资本主义时期，棉花帝国版图的扩张将美国南方乡村打造为一个棉花王国，被遮蔽的是本土印第安人土地被掠夺、南方乡村土地生态被破坏的历史。

Title: The Global Economic Network of Cotton in The Underground Railroad

ABSTRACT: The global vision and its relationship with the narrative element of cotton in Colson Whitehead’s novel The Underground Railroad need to be further explored. The present paper draws upon Jane Bennett’s new materialism, as well as Cederic Robinson and other Marxist scholars’ insights into capitalism, to analyze the global economic network constructed around the cotton crop in this novel and its intertwined relationships with blacks, Irish immigrants and the rural south of the United States in that network, revealing the differences among these actants in terms of agency, and the underlying logic of racial capitalism and colonial practices. In the novel, blacks are forcibly drawn into the global economic network of cotton, reduced to objects. In different periods of capitalist globalization, the world cotton economic network has been structured differently and blacks have been controlled by cotton capital in different ways, but behind the agency of cotton capital always lie capitalist economic interests. The collusion between capital and racist ideology leads to the failure of blacks and Irish immigrants, both at the bottom of the global cotton economic network, to use their agency to fight in concert against cotton capitalism. During the period of industrial capitalism, the expansion of the cotton empire shaped the rural south of America into a cotton kingdom, hiding its history of plundering the land of native Indians and destroying the land ecology of the rural south.

时空流动·意识形态冲突与历史反思

—— 《内塔尼亚胡一家》中当代美国犹太知识分子身份认同与建构

  吴瑾瑾　张浩洋

内容提要：美国犹太作家约书亚·科恩的《内塔尼亚胡一家》因触及美国社会较为敏感的种族问题而引发强烈社会反响。小说主人公在20世纪上半期辗转不同人生驿站，历经各种社会矛盾冲突，尤其是他与修正派犹太复国主义者在意识形态、政治主张和历史观上的碰撞冲突，在自身“犹太性”与“美国化”之间挣扎与整合，最终选择走向充满荆棘与挑战的“美国化”身份认同道路。本文从流动性理论视角，多维度地考察主人公在美国社会时空更迭和不同意识形态碰撞及其从犹太历史的反思中建构精英知识分子身份的曲折历程，揭示出二战后美国中产阶级犹太知识分子在社会动荡中的命运沉浮与生存境遇。

Title: Spatiotemporal Mobility, Ideological Conflicts and Historical Reflection: The Identity Quest of Contemporary American Jewish Intellectuals in The Netanyahus

ABSTRACT: Joshua Cohen, an American Jewish writer, won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2022 for his novel The Netanyahus, which sparked intense social reactions and gained significant attention from critics for addressing the sensitive racial issues in American society. The novel’s protagonist, Ruben Blum, navigates various life stages throughout the first half of the twentieth century, experiencing a range of social conflicts, notably his ideological, political, and historical clashes with the revisionist Zionist Ben-Zion Netanyahu, that highlight his struggles between Jewishness and Americanization, and he finally chooses to undertake the treacherous road of Americanization. From the perspective of mobility theory, this article examines the multidimensional process through which Blum constructs his identity as an elite American intellectual amidst the changing American social context, amidst interwoven and conflicted ideologies, and in light of his own reflections on individual and Jewish history. It argues that the novel reveals the fate and survival conditions of middle-class Jewish intellectuals in the dynamic post-World War II American society.

鲍尔斯《金甲壳虫变奏曲》中的生物、遗传学与后人类主体

袁　杰

内容提要： 《金甲壳虫变奏曲》是鲍尔斯首部以基因科技为题材创作的小说，全书以遗传学、音乐与人工智能等学科专业知识演绎了DNA双螺旋结构的发现过程，评论界往往因其艰深晦涩的叙事风格对小说褒贬不一。本文将小说置于20世纪中叶遗传学发展的历史语境中，考察鲍尔斯对彼时遗传学发展历程中凸显的物种界限、伦理责任以及科技不确定性等诸多复杂议题的展演，认为他通过生命微观运作机制的揭示，从基因科技角度重新谱写人类与非人类之间的“生命变奏”，修正了近代人类中心主义的主客二元关系范式，在物种之间交织出一种联结共生的后人类主体观与生命图景。

Title: Organism, Genetics, and the Posthuman Subject in Richard Powers’s The Gold Bug Variations

ABSTRACT: Richard Powers’s first novel centered on genetic technology, The Gold Bug Variations, which demonstrates expertise in genetics, music, and artificial intelligence to imagine the discovery of DNA’s double-helix structure, has received mixed reviews from critics for its obscure narrative style. By placing the novel in the historical context of the development of genetics in the mid-twentieth century, this paper addresses Powers’s discussion of the complex issues of species boundaries, ethics, and responsibility, as well as scientific and technological uncertainty during the development of genetics. It argues that Powers rewrites the “variations of life” between humans and non-humans and modifies the anthropocentric paradigm of the modern human-centered dualism from a life science perspective by discussing life’s micro-operating mechanisms. The author envisages an interconnected and symbiotic posthuman subjectivity among species.

Title: On the Postmodern Life in Anne Tyler’s Novels

ABSTRACT: Contemporary American writer Anne Tyler’s novels illuminate the transformation of an era through the depiction of postmodern life. Centered on postmodernism, this article explores shifts in individual consumption patterns, gender temperament, and value pursuit; the increasing diversity of family structures alongside a growing emotional distance among family members; and hyperreal simulacra, political aspirations, and cultural integration in a time-compressed society. It argues that Tyler, through her open, diversified, and progressive narratives, adopts a dialectical approach to examining the relationship between self and others. She champions the pursuit of personal freedom and inner harmony while emphasizing the importance of deep connections among people and mutual care rooted in love. In doing so, she endows love with a timeless and transcendent significance that surpasses both time and space.

别一种民主：阿兰达蒂·洛伊《极乐之邦》中的

“政治社会”图景

尹　晶　武　琳

内容提要：阿兰达蒂·洛伊的小说《极乐之邦》展现了20世纪80年代至21世纪初印度独特的“政治社会”现实，探讨了印度底层人如何在不稳定的环境中重塑主体性，并构建出具有抗争意义的“反公众”共同体。这些底层人为争取生存和工作等基本权利，开展了新型民主实践。他们常游走在法律的边缘，与政府进行斡旋与协商，形成跨种族、种姓、阶级、性别、宗教等界限的共同体，创造了异于西方公民社会的“政治社会”。本文聚焦小说所呈现的“政治社会”图景，探究这些新型民主实践的独有特征，审视“反公众”共同体的有效性和局限性，从而更深入地理解印度本土独特的社会现实。

Title: An Alternative Form of Democracy: “Political Society” in Arundhati Roy’s The Ministry of Utmost Happiness

ABSTRACT: Arundhati Roy’s The Ministry of Utmost Happiness presents the unique reality of India’s “political society” from the 1980s to the early twenty-first century, depicting how the subalterns reshape their subjectivity and forge a resistant “counterpublic” community despite their constant state of precarity. These subalterns conduct new democratic practices as they struggle for such basic rights as to live and work. Frequently transgressing the strict lines of legality, they engage in adept mediation and negotiation with different governmental entities, and in this process establish a cohesive community which transcends the boundaries of race, caste, class, gender, and religion, thereby constructinga “political society” that diverges from Western civil society. This paper endeavors to undertake a comprehensive investigation into the “political society” depicted in the novel, delve into the unique features of those new democratic practices, and critically examine the effectiveness and limitations of the “counterpublic” community formed in such mass politics, with a view to more profoundly understanding India’s unique indigenous reality.

Title: Nostalgia and the Conundrum of Community in Middle England

ABSTRACT: In Jonathan Coe’s Middle England, nostalgia, as a speech act, embodies the identity crisis of Birmingham people in the age of Brexit, and reveals their mindset of seeking stability through nostalgia and sense of lost community. This essay, starting from arguments about postmodern nostalgia, together with the hangover from the political legacy of Margaret Thatcher on Brexit, explores how Coe represents the identity crisis of Birminghamian people and the conundrum of the Birminghamian community from such perspectives as the characters’ “backward-looking” conduct and their precarious sense of community. Moreover, readers act as witnesses to the Brexit referendum. Coe’s nostalgia writing reflects his appeal for community awareness and his ethical concern for the future of the general public.

Title: The Writing of Hope in The Boy and the Dog: A Spatial Narrative Perspective

ABSTRACT: Hase Seishu’s collection of stories The Boy and the Dog includes six independent stories, but they are linked by a common character: a dog named Tamon. Tamon walks through different places, engaging in the destinies of various characters, bringing comfort to people and giving them opportunities for self-discovery. The work presents the common theme of people rediscovering hope after experiencing a series of setbacks such as earthquakes and betrayals. This essay examines the living environment of the characters in terms of topographical space, chronotopic space, and textual space, and analyzes how they regain confidence after falling into difficulties. The tone of the collection is warm and healing, reflecting the tenacious quality of people seeking hope in despair, while also prompting reflection on social issues and showing a strong concern for social reality.

Title: Post-Secular Redemption in J. M. Coetzee’s The Death of Jesus

ABSTRACT: J. M. Coetzee’s latest novel, The Death of Jesus (2019), brings his Jesus trilogy to a close with the protagonist’s untimely death, once again demonstrating Coetzee’s signature blend of experimental innovation and intellectual rigor in literary narrative. This article explores the crisis of faith that emerges in the wake of God’s death, examining how the novel interrogates identity and memory, life and death, and the interplay between secularity and religion in a post-secular context. The analysis unfolds through three critical lenses: the rootless wandering in an immigrant city, the enigmatic fall of the orphan David, and the quixotic pursuit of an idealized, often elusive redemption. In his eighties, Coetzee poignantly narrates the brief life of the messianic figure David, using empathetic imagination to evoke the plight of contemporary refugees, particularly the acute loneliness of displaced children. This portrayal emphasizes the transcendent possibilities inherent in human life, suggesting a pathway to redemption amidst homelessness and the mundane realities of existence.

Title: With Whom Is the Spirit Shared?: Abdulrazak Gurnah’s Construction of the Spiritual Community in By the Sea

ABSTRACT: In Abdulrazak Gurnah’s By the Sea, the dissolution of families represented by Saleh and Latif, followed by their forced displacement from their homeland, illustrates the disintegration of traditional kinship and geographic communities in Zanzibar society under the influence of European colonialism. This also signifies the dispersal of the family and the loss of place as centers of traditional values. However, the meeting and bonding of Saleh, Latif, and Rachel in London reflect Gurnah’s cosmopolitan perspective on spiritual community. This community transcends the boundaries of kinship or territory, endows unfamiliar spaces with meaning, and through emotional resonance and communication connects individuals who are otherwise alienated from each other. It serves as a vital means for maintaining hope and cohesion among the African diaspora, hope for reconciliation between African colonizers and the colonized, and cohesion as a path for the souls to connect in the complex and ever-changing contemporary society.

再现生命的脆弱： 《素食者》中的创伤书写

邵　薇

内容提要：2024年诺贝尔文学奖得主韩江的小说《素食者》通过梦境与现实交织的叙述手法再现生命的脆弱，反映历史文化和社会结构对个体造成的多重创伤。小说揭示了物种歧视和群体偏见作为一种深植人心的文化模式不仅对动物生命造成严重伤害，还通过剥削、渗透和排斥等手段压制女性（尤其是家庭主妇）、素食者以及精神病患者等弱势群体的基本需求。从社会学、心理学和文化批评的多维视角解读《素食者》，可以发现创伤广泛存在于人与动物、人与人以及人与自我之间的关系中，而治愈创伤的关键在于个体对真实自我的觉察。

Title: Revealing the Fragility of Life: Trauma Narratives in The Vegetarian

ABSTRACT: The Vegetarian, a novel by Han Kang, winner of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature, adopts a narrative strategy that integrates dreams and reality in its portrayal of the fragility of life and revelation of the trauma inflicted on individuals by past and current cultural and social structures. The novel reveals speciesism and group prejudice as deeply ingrained cultural norms that, through exploitation, infiltration, and exclusion, not only inflict severe harm on animal life but also suppress the basic needs of marginalized groups including women (especially housewives), vegetarians, and psychiatric patients. By analyzing The Vegetarian from psychological and sociological perspectives, this article argues that trauma pervades relationships between humans and animals, among humans, and within the self. The key to healing trauma lies in the individual’s understanding of and reconciliation with their true self.

论《铁器时代》中卡伦太太的三重身份

金怀梅

内容提要：《铁器时代》是库切鲜见的一部现实主义题材作品，反映了20世纪80年代南非日益激烈的种族冲突。该作品的创新之处在于其对主人公卡伦太太三重身份的设定，然而，学界未曾对此作细致的专题探讨。卡伦的三重身份意蕴丰富，其母亲身份不仅映射了库切对家庭亲子关系纽带的强调和对已故母亲的渴念，而且承载着他对南非政治危机的干预；而其教师和雇主身份是库切分别对南非殖民教育和黑人劳工问题进行深度剖析和批判的途径。通过塑造卡伦太太的多重身份，库切不仅对南非种族隔离制度下的社会现实进行了精准描绘，使作品成为研究南非历史和文化的重要文献，也为我们提供了一个深入探究南非社会问题的窗口，使我们对南非乃至全球范围内的种族、阶级和社会问题有更深入的认识。

Title: On Mrs. Curren’s Triple Identity in Age of Iron

ABSTRACT: Age of Iron is a rare realistic work by J. M. Coetzee, reflecting the growing racial conflict seen in South Africa in the 1980s. The novelty of the work lies in the triple identity of the protagonist, whose motherhood not only reflects Coetzee’s emphasis on the family bond and longing for his late mother, but also carries his intervention into the political crisis in South Africa, while her identity as a teacher and an employer is a way for Coetzee to respectively dissect and critique the issues of South Africa’s colonial education and black labor. By portraying the protagonist’s multiple identities, Coetzee not only represents the social reality of South Africa under apartheid, making the work an important document for the study of South African history and culture, but also allows us to delve into South Africa’s social problems, enabling a more in-depth understanding of the problems of race, class, and other social issues in South Africa and the world.

叙事与人类世：何为生态叙事学？

王虹日

内容提要：近十年来，生态叙事学与人类世研究几乎同时兴起，人类世是生态叙事学的核心命题，叙事也成为人类世跨学科研究中不容忽视的关键词。问题在于，生态叙事学缘何与人类世研究共同兴起？叙事与人类世同为“人类书写世界”的产物，从人类以认知与想象活动建构故事世界的形式与结构中，能否窥见人类以社会历史实践书写人类世的深层逻辑？人类世起因于过去和当下，后果却时常落在未来或远方，这种并在于当下与未来、同处于各处与无处的时空结构在叙事中有何显影？面对这一全人类共同面临的时代命题，如何把握作为集体的人类与作为个体的人之间的张力？叙事学应当如何作出回应？本文从人类世的叙事肌理及其催生的叙事焦虑出发，厘清生态叙事学的兴起动因与时代语境，考辩生态叙事学的故事世界研究、时空思想、叙述者理论等批评范畴，勾勒生态叙事学的诗学样貌与学术贡献。

ABSTRACT: In the past decade, econarratology and Anthropocene studies have rapidly emerged and developed in parallel. What are the main factors driving the co-emergence of these fields? Both narrative and the Anthropocene can be seen as records of “humans writing worlds.” Can narrative form — through which human beings cognitively and imaginatively inhabit the storyworld — shed light on deeper structures of the current geological era shaped by human activities and socio-historical practices? The Anthropocene originated in the past and develops in the present, yet its effects often become visible only in the future or in distant places. How can narratives address this paradoxical structure of the Anthropocene that juxtaposes the present with the future and occurs both nowhere and everywhere? How should narratology respond to the collective agency of human species that defines the Anthropocene without losing sensitivity to the divergence of individual human experiences? Departing from the narrative texture inherent in conceptualizations of the Anthropocene, this paper examines the rise of econarratology and focuses on its central issues and critical concepts to provide an overview of this new branch of contemporary narrative theory.

Keywords: econarratology, Anthropocene, storyworld, space, time, narrator

哈拉维：物质—符号生产装置的身体

石涎蔚

内容提要：无论从“装置”理论来看，还是从身体理论来看，哈拉维的“身体装置”概念一直长期缺席于相关学术探讨。哈拉维所说的“身体装置”来源于凯蒂·金的“文学生产装置”，但在意涵、范围和指向上又超越了金的装置。哈拉维以跨学科风格撕开由科学和哲学筑起的有关物质、身体和个体的坚固话语，让“身体装置”作为特殊的身体形态和身体理论，在物质—符号、免疫系统、装置三条线上，有力地打破了二分法和二元论，消解人为建构的“客观性”，突破边界和封闭的空间，让“不适宜的他者”可见，让异性、异族、异肤、异象者在“茎节”上游走，走向差异化和互动生成的生存美学道路。

Title: Donna Haraway: Body as the Apparatus of Bodily Production

ABSTRACT: Donna Haraway’s concept of “the apparatus of bodily production” has been neglected for a long time both in terms of “apparatus” and in terms of “body.” This concept was inspired by Katie King’s notion of “apparatus of literary production,” but it surpasses King’s apparatus in meaning, scope, and direction. Haraway’s interdisciplinary approach tears open discourses of matter, body, and individual guarded by science and philosophy. In three categories (material-semiotic, immune system, and apparatus of production),her “apparatus of bodily production” aims to dissolve dichotomy and dualism, dispel artificially constructed “objectivity,” break through boundaries and closed space, reveal the penetration of power and knowledge, make the “inappropriate others” visible, let all kinds of Other swim on the “nodes,” and move towards an ontological aesthetic of differentiation, interaction and become-with. “The apparatus of bodily production” not only expands the connotation of “apparatus” but also enriches the form, function, and meaning of the body.

《树民》中的经济书写与生态帝国主义

祁　慧

内容提要：在北美殖民地时期的历史语境中，殖民者的毛皮、森林贸易与生态帝国主义密切相关。在《树民》中，安妮·普鲁通过对殖民地的经济书写，描写了早期帝国主义与殖民地贸易对生态环境产生的影响，揭开了早期帝国生态主义在经济、政治和意识形态等多重维度的殖民活动和霸权入侵。首先，经济活动是生态帝国主义的主要面相，一方面，殖民经济活动导致了殖民地物种灭绝、生态失衡、人口锐减；另一方面，生态环境的变化也维护了殖民经济与政治活动的开展，生态与经济、政治互相影响。其次，生态帝国主义有着更深层次的意识形态面相，伴随着帝国对殖民地的一系列知识话语暴力，印第安文化与印第安人的主体性都受到无可挽回的摧残。普鲁的经济书写不仅体现她对早期殖民经济的伦理关怀，也体现其对生态帝国主义的反思与批判。

Title: Economic Writing and Eco-Imperialism in Barkskins

ABSTRACT: In colonial North America, the trade in furs and timber was closely linked to eco-imperialism. In Barkskins, Annie Proulx depicts the environmental impacts of early imperialism and colonial trade through her economic writing about the colonies, unveiling the colonial activities and hegemonic invasions of early imperial ecologism in its multiple dimensions (economy, politics, and ideology). Firstly, economic activities constitute the main face of eco-imperialism. On the one hand, colonial economic activities led to the extinction of colonial species, ecological imbalance, and drastic depopulation; on the other hand, changes in the ecological environment also maintained colonial economic and political activities, and ecology, economy, and politics influenced each other. Second, eco-imperialism has a deeper ideological dimension. Due to intellectual discursive violence by the empire against the colonies, native Indian culture and subjectivity were irreparably destroyed. Proulx’s economic writing reflects her ethical concern for the early colonial economy and her reflection on and critique of eco-imperialism.

言说“不可言说”

—温特森《越过时间的边界》中的超越性

权静嶷

内容提要：珍妮特·温特森的《越过时间的边界》以追索超越性为隐性进程，小说避免对“何为超越”进行本体论的探讨，而是置身于“何以追寻超越”的现象学框架中。借助消解学科边界的混杂性实践，文本打破了单一话语的霸权，暗示了故事作为独特的认知模式，不仅能够容纳多元话语，更能借自身虚构的力量以“否定神学”的姿态逼近超越之境。超越性之不可言说与人类无尽探索之间的张力，最终升华为小说的审美意蕴。温特森的创作旨在彰显文学在言说超越性上的神威，促使我们重新审视“世俗时代”超越性维度或已封闭的预设，并关注当代小说家如何在重释超越性的话语争夺中维护文学的独特价值。

Title: Saying the Unsayable: Transcendence in Jeanette Winterson’s Gut Symmetries

ABSTRACT: Jeanette Winterson’s novel Gut Symmetries subtly inscribes transcendence, not through ontological inquiry into its essence, but through a phenomenological examination of the gesture towards the irreducible and the unsayable. The text leverages the inherent ambiguity of fictional narrative as a unique epistemological mode, fostering a productive interplay between diverse discourses. Transcendence is approached through an acknowledgement of the novel’s own “powers of the false”, with the inherent tension between the ineffability of transcendence and the persistent human drive translating into the novel’s aesthetic effect. Winterson underscores literature’s unparalleled potential to reach the unreachable, highlighting contemporary novelists’ struggle to defend literary authority in an allegedly postsecular and postliterary era.

Keywords: Jeanette Winterson, Gut Symmetries, transcendence, secularism

友爱与威胁的悖论：

哈罗德·品特《看管人》中的好客难题

谌苏维

内容提要：事关空间安全的“闯入者”是哈罗德·品特系列“威胁喜剧”的核心议题之一。三幕剧《看管人》以邀请、款待不明身份者的“绝对好客”开场，又以沉默、驱逐的不好客落幕，以工整的对称结构将品特前期戏剧中单一的入侵问题深化为友爱与威胁的伦理悖论，成为“威胁喜剧”的代表作。以德里达“好客”概念重审《看管人》中“佛像”“锡德卡普”“看管人”等含义暧昧的戏剧意象，正分别对应剧中三大好客元素“主人”“客人”“家宅”潜存的超出现实好客法则的他异性。对好客不可能性的戏剧化正是品特对尊重差异的当代友爱关系之可能的戏剧探索。

Title: The Paradox of Friendship and Threat: The Hospitality Dilemma in Harold Pinter’s The Caretaker

ABSTRACT: The “intruder” undermining space security is a core theme in Harold Pinter’s comedies of menace. His three-act play The Caretaker opens with absolute hospitality to unidentified guests and ends with silent, ungracious expulsion. Its symmetrical structure develops Pinter’s earlier invasion theme into an ethical paradox of friendship and threat, making it a quintessential comedy of menace. By re-examining the concept of hospitality through deconstructive ethics, this article argues that ambiguous symbols in The Caretaker — such as Buddha, Sidcup, and the Caretaker — represent alterity beyond reality in the three elements of hospitality (“Master,” “Guest,” and “House”), forming the roots of the hospitality dilemma. Dramatizing the impossibility of hospitality, Pinter explores the possibility of contemporary friendship based on respect for differences.

玛格丽特·德拉布尔《黄金国度》中的浪漫

主义继承与重塑

韩秋玲

内容提要：在德拉布尔长达半个多世纪的创作生涯中，浪漫主义占有十分重要的位置。本论文以小说《黄金国度》为例，从“异域想象”、“景观塑造”与“个体力量”三个方面分析德拉布尔如何立足于当代语境与浪漫主义思潮展开对话。结合德拉布尔对浪漫主义信条与诗歌的独特见解，本文认为，作家在肯定异域想象所带来的无限可能的同时指出了东方主义心态的危险性；在肯定景观塑造作用的同时强调了人类社会中联结的重要性；在肯定个体力量的同时凸显了历史的不可逆转性。通过对浪漫主义的继承与重塑，德拉布尔重新审视了浪漫主义在当代的价值，为当代社会寻求新的思考与生活方式提供了启示。

Title: Romantic Inheritance and Revision in Margaret Drabble’s The Realms of Gold

ABSTRACT: Romanticism has played a significant role in Margaret Drabble’s literary career for more than half a century. This paper analyzes how Drabble’s The Realms of Gold engages in a dialogue with Romanticism in the contemporary context from three perspectives: exotic imagination, landscape shaping, and individual power. Drawing on Drabble’s understanding of Romantic principles and poems, this paper argues that while affirming the infinite possibilities brought by exotic imagination, she also points out the danger of orientalism. While affirming the shaping power of landscape, she also emphasizes the importance of connection in human society. While affirming individual power, she also highlights the irreversibility of history. Through her inheritance and revision of Romanticism, she reexamines the values of Romanticism in the contemporary era and provides inspiration for contemporary society to seek a new way of thinking and being.

功夫之镜（境）： 《我们收获的男人们》中的

武术书写与生存之道

杜　越

内容提要：在当代美国，华裔与非裔是两大少数族裔群体，在历史种族权力斗争中联系紧密。两次获得美国国家图书奖的非裔作家杰斯米妮·瓦德的回忆录《我们收获的男人们》生动再现了20世纪后半叶美国南方地区非裔美国人的生活图景。通过研究该书中的中国功夫元素，可以观察到瓦德如何将武术作为一种文化实践和生活哲学用于塑造黑人身份、加强社区联系、推动社会进步。瓦德的作品不仅是对个人历史的回忆，更是对非裔美国人在追求自由和平等过程中运用中国武术的文化力量进行种族斗争的关注与赞颂。

Title: Kung Fu as a Mirror: Chinese Martial Arts Narrative and the Way of Living in Men We Reaped

ABSTRACT: In contemporary United States, Chinese and African Americans are two significant minority groups with a closely intertwined history of racial power struggles. The memoir Men We Reaped by Jesmyn Ward, a two-time National Book Award-winning African American author, vividly recreates the life of African Americans in the American South during the latter half of the twentieth century. By examining the elements of Chinese kung fu in the book, one can see how Ward uses martial arts as a cultural practice and philosophy of life to shape black people’s identity, strengthen community ties, and promote social progress. Ward’s work is not only a personal historical reflection but also a tribute to and exploration of how African Americans have harnessed the cultural power of kung fu in their struggle for freedom and equality.
