苏格兰小说家欧文·韦尔什的经典之作《猜火车》以后现代叙事风格书写了当代苏格兰底层年轻人的生存困境,表现出他们的个人自由主义姿态及民族认同感的缺失。本文利用齐格蒙·鲍曼关于后现代消费社会自由问题的论述,结合撒切尔时代政策对苏格兰的影响,从《猜火车》中人物的边缘化语境、共同体意识、游戏的态度等与自由的焦虑相关的层面,探析韦尔什对苏格兰平民阶层生存焦虑和认同难题的呈现。韦尔什以叙述的形式手段表征了苏格兰底层人物生活的不确定性和边缘性,他对苏格兰底层人物在没有安全的自由状态中的焦虑书写,深刻地反映了后现代社会中苏格兰人复杂的民族心态。
Scottish novelist Owen Welsh’s classic “Guess the train” after the modern narrative style of writing the bottom of contemporary Scotland’s young people’s living predicament, showing their lack of personal liberal attitude and national identity. This article uses the comment of Qi Ge Meng Bowman on the freedom of post-modern consumer society, combined with Thatcher’s policy on Scotland, from the “guess the character” marginalized context, community awareness, game attitude and so on Free anxiety related level, to explore Welsh’s survival anxiety and identity problems for the civilian population in Scotland. Welsh, by means of narrative, characterizes the uncertainty and marginalization of the life of the Scottish bottom-class. His anxiety over the lack of secure freedom of the Scottish underground characters profoundly reflects the complexity of the Scots in the post-modern society National mentality.
