摘要
本文意在揭示韦伯斯特悲剧《马尔菲公爵夫人》并不遵循任何预设的美学准则。该剧人物塑造技巧复杂,迷恋肢解身体,采用的意象非常繁复甚至偶尔造作——这些都展示了文本中身份的流动性、对死亡价值的深刻诘问,以及固定意义和稍纵即逝意义在文本中的共存。该剧的结构支点是所有道德和美学范畴之价值的不确定性。
My contention in this paper is that Webster’s tragedy The Duchess of Malfi conforms to no predefined aesthetic code.The complexity of the technique of characterization,the fascination for dismembered bodies,and the use of exuberant and at times very stilted imagery,bespeak the fluidity of identity,a deep interrogation on the value of death and the co-presence of fixed and evanescent meaning.The play’s structural pivot is uncertainty as to the value of all moral and aesthetic categorizations.
