【摘要】：托尼·莫里森于1993年获诺贝尔文学奖。作为迄今为止唯一一位获得诺贝尔文学奖的美国黑人女作家,托尼·莫里森已在当今文学界产生深远影响。被公认为当今世界最杰出的小说家之一,她的小说成就是美国黑人文学史上的一座丰碑。莫里森致力于保存和弘扬黑人文化,她的作品主要关注白人文化统治下的黑人生活,尤其是生活在社会边缘的黑人女性。 《最蓝的眼睛》发表于1970年,是托尼·莫里森的处女作,得到了评论家的高度关注。小说如歌如泣地讲述了黑人小女孩佩科拉的经历。她沉湎幻想,渴望拥有一双蓝色的眼睛,认为这样才能得到别人的钦佩和认可。最后佩科拉在自己的疯狂世界里实现了自己的梦想,但坠入了充满创伤和痛苦的深渊。小说中的主要人物在某种程度上都遭受着集体创伤和个人创伤,显示出错综复杂的创伤症状。小说中主要人物经历的创伤各有不同。乔利作为黑人男性创伤者的代表,他的创伤来自于早期的个人悲惨经历。波琳,黑人女性创伤者之一,经历着家庭暴力和外界讥讽的双重创伤。佩科拉的创伤主要来自于家庭的冷漠和社区的排挤。小说中的其他黑人小孩也经历着同样的创伤。每一种创伤都给小说中的人物带来深深的伤害。本文试运用创伤理论对小说进行分析,试图发掘主要人物心里难以言表的创伤之痛,以及他们试图走出创伤的种种努力。通过整合过去记忆和现在生活,寻找自身的社会身份,增进社区成员之间的亲密关系,创伤者有可能从创伤中得到自我提升并重新审视世界。然而黑人所遭受的创伤之深、之痛注定了他们难以摆脱困扰他们的梦魇。乔利为了摆脱过去的梦魇,酗酒甚至将仇恨转移到自己妻子和女儿身上,和女儿发生乱伦关系,象征着他没有成功地将过去痛苦记忆整合到现在的生活中。波琳在经历个人创伤之后,丧失了爱的能力,甚至迷失了自我女性身份。佩科拉的疯狂暗示着她拒绝融入白人社区,只有在自己疯狂世界里找寻自我。
[Abstract]:Tony Morrison was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1993. As the only black American writer ever to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, Tony Morrison has had a profound influence in the literary world. Recognized as one of the most outstanding novelists in the world today, her novel achievement is a monument in the history of black American literature. Morrison is committed to the preservation and promotion of black culture. Her works focus on black life under the rule of white culture, especially black women living on the margins of society. The Bluest eyes, published in 1970, is Tony Morrison's first work, which has received critical attention. The novel, like a song, tells the story of Pekola, a little black girl. She indulged in fantasies and longed to have blue eyes in order to be admired and recognized. In the end, Pecora realized her dream in her crazy world, but fell into an abyss of trauma and pain. To some extent, the main characters in the novel suffer from collective and personal trauma, showing complex trauma symptoms. The main characters in the novel experience different kinds of trauma. As a representative of black male traumatists, Jolly's trauma stems from his early personal tragic experiences. Pauline, one of the black female traumatists, experienced the double trauma of domestic violence and sarcasm. Pekola's trauma comes mainly from family apathy and community exclusion. Other black children in the novel experience the same trauma. Every kind of wound brings deep hurt to the characters in the novel. This paper tries to analyze the novel by using trauma theory, and tries to find out the unspeakable trauma pain of the main characters and their efforts to get out of the trauma. By integrating past memory and present life, finding their own social identity, and enhancing intimate relationships among community members, traumatists are likely to gain self-improvement from the trauma and re-examine the world. But the depth and depth of the wounds made it hard for blacks to get rid of the nightmares that beset them. In an attempt to get rid of the nightmare of the past, Jolly drank and even transferred hatred to his wife and daughter, having incest relations with his daughter, symbolizing his failure to integrate painful memories of the past into his present life. Pauline lost her ability to love and even lost her self-femininity after her personal trauma. Pecora's madness suggests that she refuses to fit into the white community and finds herself in her crazy world.
