在阅读当代美国著名越战作家梯姆·奥布莱恩(Tim O’Brien)的作品时,评论界受阐释框架的影响,普遍认为其作品充斥着对女性的厌恶和敌视,并对此深感不满。事实上,这类批评并未能充分把握奥布莱恩叙事作品之独特性。以奥布莱恩1998年度最畅销小说《恋爱中的汤姆卡特》为例的文本细读表明,隐含作者在文本中通过话语控制所呈现的是性别话语之复杂性、矛盾性。究其原因有多方面的。它既涉及小说中隐含作者对人物叙述之过度使用、真实作者自身创伤化的情感经历和文学创作原则,还涉及该作品创作的历史、文化语境。
When reading the works of Tim O’Brien, a famous contemporary Vietnam war writer, the critics are influenced by the framework of interpretation. They generally think his works are full of disgust and hostility to women and are deeply dissatisfied with it . In fact, such criticisms fail to fully grasp the unique features of O’Brien’s narratives. A careful reading of the text by O’Brien, the 1998 best-selling novel Tom Carter in Love, shows that the implicit author’s control of discourse in the text presents the complexity and contradiction of gender discourse. There are many reasons for this. It involves not only the implied author’s excessive use of character narration in the novel, the emotional experience of literary creation and literary creation, but also the historical and cultural context of the creation.
