摘要
E·L·多克托罗的《拉格泰姆时代》将历史真实人物与虚构人物并置,通过重写历史的方式建构起二十世纪最初二十年间的"社会空间",宏观上呈现了美国作为民族国家的历史空间再生产,微观上揭示了权力机构为维护现有"社会空间秩序"而对诉求种族平等与公正的科尔豪斯·沃克和争取阶级利益的下层群体实施的政治暴力,探讨了民族、种族与阶级身份的问题,讽喻了作者置身其中的当代社会。
E.L.Doctorow's Ragtime juxtaposes historical and fictional figures in one text.By rewriting the history of the early 20years of 20th century to construct the social space,the novel presents USA's historical space reproduction as a nation in the macro scale,and discloses in the micro scale the authority's political violence against Coalhouse Walker,who dares to cater for racial equality and justice and against those lower groups who struggle for class benefits in order to maintain the existing social space order.The novel explores the problems of national,racial and class identities,with which it alludes to the society Doctorow lives in.
