摘要
西尔维娅·普拉斯的作品不仅表现了强烈的自我意识和女性意识,也具有明显的政治和历史意识。普拉斯的著名诗篇例如"爹爹"、"女拉撒路"以及"慕尼黑的女模特"等经常出现战争和集中营等暴力意象以及纳粹迫害犹太人的大屠杀描写,其自传体小说《钟形罩》让我们感受到当时的政治历史氛围,字里行间充满着作者对当时政治大环境的不满。受保罗·策兰和奈莉·萨克斯等诗人影响,普拉斯擅长用意象来表述各种无法言说的内容和无法真实反映的历史事实。她把历史意识作为贯穿创作的一个基本精神,强调创作应对历史事件作出严肃的回应和书写。普拉斯希望通过政治和历史的书写来警示我们不要陷入道德的麻木和历史政治的记忆缺失中,体现了一个作家的职责和使命。
Sylvia Plath＇s writings teem with self-awareness, female consciousness and political- historical dimensions. Reoccurring are violent images like war, the concentration camp, and descriptions about the Holocaust in her masterpieces such as ＂Daddy＂, ＂Lady Lazarus＂, and ＂The Munich Mannequins＂. As Plath＇s autobiographical novel, The Bell Jar unrolls before us the political-historical climate of her day, and shows her dissatisfaction with the then political milieu. Positively influenced by Paul Celan, Nelly Sachs, etc., Plath is an expert in presenting with imagery contents unspeakable and those historical facts defying a faithful telling. Her historical consciousness goes through her writings and she particularly values writing as a serious response to historical events. Plath intends to alert us to moral numbness and political-historical amnesia, which is a vivid expression of her commitment as a writer.
