印度裔作家Aravind Adiga的《白虎》讲述了主人公Balram杀死主人,从印度底层成为一个成功企业家的故事。书中印度社会巨大的不公与印度属下阶层麻木、顺从的精神状态形成了鲜明的对比。按照拉康的理论,他们之所以逆来顺受,甚至自觉维护不公,是因为他们内化了自己所受的教育和所处的文化所构成的语言结构,完全按照习惯化的喻说思维,沦为了构成自我的文化语言的奴隶。 The white tiger of Aravind Adiga, an Indian writer, tells the story of the protagonist Balram, who killed the owner and became a successful entrepreneur from the bottom of India. The great injustice in Indian society in the book contrasts sharply with the mental state of subjugation and obedience in India. According to Lacan’s theory, the reason why they resigned and even upheld their injustice because they internalized the linguistic structure of the education and culture in which they were educated, completely according to the habitual metaphysical thinking, Slaves of self cultural language.
