《绛红雪白的花瓣》中另类维多利亚人的情欲研究
发布时间:2025-06-24 02:22
本论文主要运用与欲望相关的理论,以另类维多利亚人的性欲望作为切入点,探析英国作家米歇尔·法柏的新维多利亚小说《绛红雪白的花瓣》。论文尝试在19世纪70年代的维多利亚社会历史语境下,关注小说中放纵的性欲、动摇的性欲和缺失的性欲。通过结合背景与文本分析揭示这一表象下的原因,及这些另类维多利亚人如何借助情欲应对当时的维多利亚价值观,本文将进一步揭示小说作者对这一维多利亚想象的态度。论文强调,19世纪中后期,维多利亚社会功利主义和理性主义的盛行贬低了人类情感;科学的崛起冲击着宗教地位,引发了信仰的混乱;房中天使与两分领域价值取向下的社会角色极大地约束着女性。而这些维多利亚价值观与教条深刻地影响了另类维多利亚人威廉、苏格、亨利和艾格尼丝,在小说中以对性欲望的不同态度为表现。这些角色以情欲为手段,去应对约束他们的维多利亚价值观,或是妥协,或是协商或是挑战,尝试在困境中寻找一条出路。在小说中,性欲望是法柏的维多利亚想象中与维多利亚价值观或教条妥协、协商与对抗的策略。作者通过这一想象,以非理性的角度反思与观照理性价值,同时表达了对当代共有问题的思考。
