美国自然主义小说中隐含作者的研究

摘要

本文主要是针对叙事学中的隐含作者概念,运用叙事学理论中不可靠叙述、思维风格、视角转换和文体学理论中多重象征意义、障眼法来分析美国自然主义小说中的两部小说文本《嘉莉妹妹》和《马丁伊登》。隐含作者是韦恩布思在1961年在《小说修辞学》中提出的概念,在国际叙事研究界产生了很大影响。本文旨在阐述隐含作者与真实作者、叙述者及读者之间的关系,并以此为基础深入的分析小说文本,从而更好的帮助读者理解隐含作者理论的实用性,从叙事学角度进行解读,更为全面的把握作品。
　　 本文第一部分主要介绍叙事学中对于隐含作者的研究背景,同时追根溯源,探讨了其在历史上不同走向的变义,并准确把握作者、文本与读者之间的关系。第二部分通过叙事学中不可靠叙述、思维风格、视角转换等帮助阐释隐含作者的叙事策略来深入挖掘两个文本中的文学手法,从文本角度来帮助读者理解隐含作者的实际指导意义。在本文的结论部分则着重提出,通过结合《嘉莉妹妹》和《马丁伊登》中的文学特色,融入了新的叙事学分析策略,并以这些叙事策略作为分析文本的主要手段,从而为进一步研究自然主义小说中的叙事要素提供了可借鉴的范例。
