发布时间：2018-08-01 13:01
【摘要】：2001年诺贝尔文学奖得主维·苏·奈保尔是一位来自西印度群岛特立尼达的印裔移民作家，与印度、特立尼达、英国乃至欧洲等多国文化息息相关，他是一个文学世界的漂流者。奈保尔的作品主要表现殖民宗主国对第三世界，尤其是非洲国家的控制和破坏，以及异质文化间的冲突和融合。其代表作《河湾》是一部关于非洲的充满悲观情绪的小说,凸现了一个古老大陆在本土化与普遍化之间的艰难处境。在小说《河湾》中作者揭示了第三世界的动荡与落后以及非洲人民的无奈与迷茫这一主题。 本论文以热奈特的叙事学理论为依据来研究奈保尔小说《河湾》中的叙事时间。与现代批评理论紧密相连,叙事时间理论在西方文学批评界中扮演着越来越重要的角色。作为叙事学的代表人物，在对文学文本进行分析时，热奈特独辟蹊径，对叙事的深层进行剖析和研究，以挖掘文本的深层特质。其中，他的叙事学理论对文学文本的叙事时间特征做了大量研究，专门提出了一套叙事时间概念，抓住文本叙事时间特征，分析时序、时距、频率，探讨叙事节奏。作为现代主义的代表作家之一，奈保尔在《河湾》中打破了传统的线性叙述模式，展示了一套体现时空的新系统。时间是一部小说的关键部分，在小说中有着举足轻重的作用。叙事时间不仅仅可以影响故事的发展过程，限定一部小说的起点、高潮和结尾，而且叙事时间的合理布局更是文本的一大闪光点。奈保尔试图让读者在时空的变化交替中理解他的作品。因此，本文从叙事时间着手分析，以此来探讨奈保尔是如何通过这些叙事技巧来揭示其主题的。 论文共分五大部分。 第一部分是对奈保尔及其小说《河湾》的简单介绍。第二部分回顾了过去五十多年中外评论家对奈保尔以及《河湾》的评论。从而阐明了本篇论文的选题意义。第三部分主要介绍本篇论文所运用的理论。首先简单介绍了叙事学的概念，然后介绍了热奈特的叙事时间理论。 第四部分是论文的主体部分。首先是对文本的非线性叙事时间进行探讨。预叙和倒叙穿插于过去、现在、未来的叙述当中，，这种非线性的时序既能真实再现个人的内心思想，又把个人的心路历程渗透于过去、现在、未来的叙事中。其次，分析文本的叙事时距。省略、停顿、概要、场景的巧妙安排使小说在节奏上张弛有度，而且将小说的主旨表达得淋漓尽致。最后，是对叙事频率的解读。单一叙事、重复叙事和反复叙事的灵活使用使故事的场面更显清晰，从而更深刻地感受小说所蕴含的主题意义。奈保尔所采用的独特的叙事方式不仅有助于对小说人物与主题的理解，而且在小说的建构中始终保持着自己对于第三世界尤其非洲及其人民的态度，从而带给读者无限的思考与感悟。 第五部分是基于以上分析的结论。论文通过以上分析得出了小说《河湾》的主题——第三世界的动荡与落后与非洲人民的迷茫和无奈。奈保尔的文字一直深入“黑暗世界”的内部，通过对时序、时距、频率的分析与解读,读者无法回避他提出的问题：第三世界的落后和衰败，除了昔日西方的殖民掠夺之外，是否还有其自身的原因？这些区域现今的自我殖民状态，究竟应该由谁来负责？
[Abstract]:Vee Sue Naipaul, the winner of the 2001 Nobel prize for literature, is a Indian immigrant writer from Trinidad of the West Indies. It is closely related to many cultures such as India, Trinidad, Britain and even Europe. He is a drifter in a literary world. Naipaul's works are mainly the colonies of the colonies of the third world, especially the African countries. The control and destruction of the family, as well as the conflict and integration between different cultures. His masterpiece, the river is a novel of pessimism about Africa, highlights the difficult situation between the localization and universality of an ancient continent. In the novel < River > the author reveals the turbulence and backwardness of the third world and the helplessness of the African people. And the subject of confusion.
This paper studies the narrative time in Naipaul's novel < River Bay > based on the narrative theory of Genet. It is closely connected with the theory of modern criticism. The theory of narrative time plays a more and more important role in the western literary criticism. As a representative of the narratology, he has a unique approach to the analysis of literary texts. The deep characteristics of the narrative are analyzed and studied in order to excavate the deep characteristics of the text. Among them, his narrative theory has done a lot of research on the narrative time characteristics of the literary text, and puts forward a set of narrative time concepts, seize the time characteristics of the text narrative, analyze the timing, time distance, frequency, and discuss the narrative rhythm as the representative of modernism. Naipaul, one of the writers, has broken the traditional linear narrative mode in the river, showing a new system of time and space. Time is the key part of a novel. It plays an important role in the novel. The narrative time can not only affect the development process of the story, limit the starting point, the climax and the end of a novel, but also describe the narrative time. The rational layout of the time is a great flash point in the text. Naipaul tries to make readers understand his works in the alternation of time and space. Therefore, this article begins with the analysis of the narrative time to explore how Naipaul reveals his theme through these narrative techniques.
The paper is divided into five parts.
The first part is a brief introduction to Naipaul and his novels, "River Bay >". The second part reviews the comments on Naipaul and the river bay by Chinese and foreign critics in the past fifty years. Thus, the significance of this thesis is clarified. The third part mainly introduces the theory used in this paper. The first, the concept of narratology is briefly introduced, and then the concept of narratology is briefly introduced. The narrative time theory of Genet is introduced.
The fourth part is the main part of the paper. First, the nonlinear narrative time of the text is discussed. Pre narration and flashback are interspersed in the past, now, and in the future, this nonlinear time series can not only reproduce the inner thoughts of the individual, but also infiltrate the personal experience in the past, the present, the future narration, and the analysis of the future. The narrative distance of the text. Omission, pause, summary, and the ingenious arrangement of the scene make the novel relax in rhythm, and express the theme of the novel incisively and vividly. Finally, it is the interpretation of the frequency of the narrative. The single narrative, the repeated narrative and the flexible use of repeated narration make the scene more clear and thus more deeply feel the novel. The unique theme of Naipaul's narrative means not only helps to understand the characters and themes of the novel, but also maintains his attitude towards the third world, especially Africa and its people in the construction of the novel, thus giving readers unlimited thinking and understanding.
The fifth part is based on the conclusion of the above analysis. Through the above analysis, the theme of the novel < Hewan >: the turbulence and backwardness of the third world and the confusion and helplessness of the African people. Naipaul's writing has been deep inside the dark world, and the readers can not avoid him through the analysis and interpretation of the time series, time distance and frequency. The problem of the third world is the backwardness and decline of the world, in addition to the former western colonial plunder, is there any reason for itself? Who should be responsible for the present state of self colonization in these regions?
