摘要
扎迪·史密斯的小说《西北》再现了当代伦敦移民群体的生存困境。现有研究多以此为出发点探讨小说所揭示的种族冲突、阶级斗争、性别压迫等社会问题,很少关注小说中针对这些问题的解决办法。通过借助弗雷德里克·詹姆逊提出的“政治无意识”观点,剖析史密斯提议的解决办法,进而从种族、阶级、性别这三个关键维度揭示文本中乌托邦的建构过程并发掘其伦理价值,即史密斯以描摹乌托邦的方式启发移民争取发展权利、改善生存现状,为建构现实世界中的乌托邦而奋斗。
Zadie Smith’s NW represents the hard life of immigrants in contemporary London,which serves as a starting point for discussing the social issues such as ethnic conflicts,class struggle and gender oppression in the previous studies.However,they pay little attention to the solutions offered in the novel.In this case,Fredric Jameson’s“the political unconscious”is conducive to analyzing the solutions proposed by Smith through revealing the construction of Utopia in the text from the key dimensions of ethnicity,class and gender,through which the ethical value of the novel is able to be explored.Smith inspires the immigrants to fight for their right to develop and improve living conditions by means of depicting the Utopia,which is helpful to construct the Utopia in the real world.
