传记叙事就是传记作者把传主及其有关的信息用文字提供给读者,这些信息的核心是一连串的事件,在传记中被组成“故事”。[1]叙什么样的事以及怎样叙事是决定其成败的关键因素。传记并非如流水账一般记录传主生平中的大小事,而是记录那些足以引起传主的生活发生改变的事件,以及足以揭示传主性格的事件。传记作家必须经过调查取证、思考分析,然后才能从众多事件中辨别并挑选出这些重要事件进行叙述。为乔布斯写传记的不只艾萨克森一人,王永刚和周虹[2]以及杰弗里·扬和威廉·西蒙[3]都曾为乔布斯立传。他们各自选取了不尽相同的素材,叙述了乔布斯生活中的不同侧面,因此呈现出了形形色色的乔布斯。这些都是叙事中展现的乔布斯,而无一是历史上的真实的乔布斯。传记小说属于非虚构文学,对真实性的追求毋庸置疑,另一方面,它又具有文学色彩。没有文学性的传记只能是按照时间顺序排列的事件列表,简单枯燥,且毫无感染力,也绝对不可能畅销。传记小说的文学性体现在传记作者如何叙事,如何发挥创造性,运用小说的叙事手法进行合理的布局和渲染,生动地再现传主的人生。本文选取了2011年由美国西蒙与舒斯特公司出版发行的
Biographical Narrative is the biography of the biography of the author and its related information available to readers in the text, the core of these messages is a series of events, in the biography is composed of “story ”. [1] What is the classification of what and how narrative is the key factor in determining its success or failure. Biography does not, as a running account, generally record the size of events in the biography of the Lord, but records events that are sufficient to cause a change in the life of the Lord, as well as events sufficient to reveal the character of the Lord. Biographers must be investigated and evidenced, thinking and analyzing, and then we can identify and select these important events from many events to narrate. Not only is Isaacson writing a biography for Steve Jobs, but Wang Yonggang and Zhou Hong [2] and Geoffrey Young and William Simon [3] both made biography of Steve Jobs. They each chose a different material, describes different aspects of Steve Jobs in life, so showing a variety of jobs. These are the jobs Steve Jobs shows in the narrative, but none of the real Steve Jobs history. Biographical novels belong to non-fictional literature, no doubt about the pursuit of authenticity, on the other hand, it has literary color. No literary biography can only be chronological list of events, simple and boring, and uninteresting, it is absolutely impossible to sell well. The literary nature of biographical novels reflects on how the biographers narrate, how to use their creativity, and uses the narrative techniques of novels to rationally lay out and render vividly the life of the protagonists.
