【摘要】：罗德亚德·吉卜林（1865-1936）是二十世纪享有盛誉的英国作家之一，也是英国第一位获得诺贝尔文学奖的作家。他的创作十分丰富，有长篇小说，短篇小说，诗歌，儿童文学等，尤以短篇小说见长，，被认为是英国当时最好的短篇小说家。《丛林故事》是其最为出色的代表作品。《丛林故事》由十五篇故事组成，其中七篇是互不相关的动物故事，如《白海豹》《里基-蒂基-塔维》等。另外八篇则是以少年莫格里为中心人物的系列故事，主要讲述了莫格里在狼群里长大，最后成为丛林之主的故事。这些故事虽然简单却蕴含着深刻的含义，人们对他的作品有各种各样的研究。本文从后殖民的视角探讨《丛林故事》中蕴含的殖民主义思想。文章由四个部分组成，首先介绍了吉卜林的生平及其写作生涯，国内外对他作品的研究以及本文要采用的相关的后殖民主义文学理论。第一章主要探讨主人公的身份危机。通过莫格里在丛林和村庄之间的徘徊，以及他最后成为丛林之王表达了西方殖民者注定要统治殖民地的思想。第二章主要分析对混杂性的赞扬。当西方殖民者进入殖民地时，只有当他们了解了当地的思想文化和生活习俗，才能更好的统治殖民地，以维护他们的统治秩序。第三章进一步从文化帝国主义方面分析西方统治者对殖民地的控制。通过对三章的分析，也展现了吉卜林的殖民思想，他认为白人是优等民族，是注定要统治劣等民族的；西方文化是文化的准则，是普遍化的意识形态，所有的非西方文化都要遵从他们的文化。
[Abstract]:Luo De Ade Kipling (1865-1936) is one of the most prestigious British writers in the 20th century and the first British writer to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. His works are very rich, including novels, short stories, poetry, children's literature, etc., especially short stories. Thought to be the best short story writer in England at the time. Jungle Story is its best representative work. Jungle Story consists of fifteen stories, seven of which are unrelated animal stories. For example, White Seal, Ricky Tiki Tavi, et al. The other eight are the story of Mogari, who grew up in a pack of wolves and becomes the lord of the jungle. These stories, simple as they are, have profound implications, and many studies have been conducted on his works. This paper discusses the colonial thought in Jungle Story from the perspective of post-colonization. The article is composed of four parts. Firstly, it introduces Kipling's life and his writing career, studies on his works at home and abroad, and the relevant postcolonial literary theories to be adopted in this paper. The first chapter mainly discusses the identity crisis of the protagonist. Through Mogari's wandering between the jungle and the village, and his eventual king of the jungle, he expressed the idea that Western colonists were destined to rule the colonies. The second chapter mainly analyzes the praise of confounding. When the Western colonists entered the colony, only when they understood the local ideology, culture and customs, could they rule the colony better and maintain their ruling order. The third chapter further analyzes the control of the Western rulers over the colonies from the perspective of cultural imperialism. Through the analysis of the three chapters, Kipling's colonial thought is also revealed. He believes that white people are superior nations and destined to rule inferior nations, that Western culture is the norm of culture and that it is a generalized ideology. All non-western cultures must conform to their culture.
