摘要
随着澳大利亚民族和解运动的蓬勃兴起,和解小说于21世纪初悄然出现。它们大多基于真实历史事件,旨在修正殖民历史、呼吁种族和解、重塑民族新形象。但是围绕这一类小说的文学批评显示,和解小说因其话题、作者、立场和读者群各有不同,反映了复杂矛盾的民族心理以及激烈的话语纷争。以《神秘的河流》和《卡彭塔尼亚湾》两部小说为例,本文重点分析和解小说引发的热点问题,解读小说批评背后的政治话语和权力意识,同时揭示新时期澳大利亚文学研究的新动向。
Australian reconciliation novels, appearing mostly at the beginning of the 21st century, answer the call for a new national image and identity by confronting with the colonial past and seeking for reconciliation between Aboriginals and non-Aboriginals. But owing to different representations and interpretations of the history and race, they have made themselves a good subject for public debate and discussions. By taking Carpentaria and The Secret River as examples, this essay argues that the literary criticisms on reconciliation novels reveal the interaction between public and private discourses on history, race and identity, and the important changes and trends happening to literary research indicate the significance of boundary-crossing and interdisciplinary perspectives in the research of Australian national literature.
