摘要 "精神隔绝"是贯穿麦卡勒斯作品的一条主线,这一主题与麦卡勒斯在美国南方背景中的身份界定密切相关,而宗教也是麦卡勒斯之社会身份构建的一个重要组成部分。麦卡勒斯曾宣称,写作对她来说就是一个"寻找上帝"的过程。在文学创作中,"怪异"是麦卡勒斯在寻求"确定性"过程中表现上帝缺席或在场的一种特殊方式。本文将聚焦于小说《心是孤独的猎手》中的"怪异"基督形象塑造,揭示文本中建构与解构两条并行线索之间的悖论,尝试在作品的宗教反讽特征中探索麦卡勒斯"精神隔绝"主题的深层内涵。 The theme of ＂spiritual isolation＂ in Carson McCullers＇s works bears a strong relevance to the writer＇s definition of Southern American identity,of which religion constitutes an essential element.As McCullers claims,writing,to her,is a continuous process of seeking God＇s presence;meanwhile,in her novels,＂freakishness＂ seems a barometer of the certainty brought about by God＇s absence/presence.Thus,it is the aim of this article to reveal the religious implications of McCullers＇s hallmark theme of ＂spiritual isolation＂ through a close study of her portrayal of ＂freakish＂ Christ images in The Heart is a Lonely Hunter and the text＇s religious irony implied in the parallel forces of construction and deconstruction.
