在当代空间理论视域之下,源于现实生活的文学空间已不再是单纯地对人们赖以生存的现实空间的模仿、再现或表现,而是文本铸造的社会空间的组成与再现。以空间批评理论入手,可以从社会空间、个体空间和主人公心理空间等三个维度对美国华裔作家雷祖威的短篇小说《生日》进行解读与探讨。作品通过法院大楼、弗兰克住宅与华莱士·王的意大利餐馆和小孩韦尔比的房间这几个标志性空间的叙写以及主人公所经历的充满碰撞与冲突的个人恋情,来展示华莱士在社会空间中体验的强权与压抑、个人空间所遭受的冷落与磨难及其内在心理空间所承受的煎熬与困惑,折射出年轻一代的华裔虽已获得异国的身份但却仍被主流社会无情地疏离与边缘化,以至他们无力改变自身所栖居的生存空间,无法觅寻到灵魂的宿归。
Under the perspective of contemporary space theory, the literary space originating from real life is no longer a mere imitation, representation or representation of the real space on which people depend, but the composition and reproduction of the social space in which text is cast. Starting from the theory of spatial criticism, we can interpret and discuss the birthday of the Chinese-American writer Lei Zuwei’s short stories from the three dimensions of social space, individual space and hero’s psychological space. The work shows Wallace through the landmark spaces of the Courthouse, Frank House and Wallace King’s Italian restaurant and the baby Velby’s room, as well as the protagonist’s personal affair of clashes and clashes The power and repression experienced in social space, the indifference and suffering suffered by personal space and the torment and perplexity inherent in its inner psychological space reflect that the Chinese people of the younger generation, though they have acquired the status of an exotic country, are still mercilessly persisted by the mainstream society Alienation and marginalization, as well as their inability to change the living space inhabited by themselves, can not find the return of the soul.
