羽蛇

內(nèi)容概要

《羽蛇》完成于1926年，既是勞倫斯一生探索現(xiàn)代文明的性愛這一主題的總結(jié)，也是他遠(yuǎn)游美洲的結(jié)果。愛爾蘭孀婦凱特厭棄了文明世界的種種桎梏，到墨西哥尋求新生，卻被卷入當(dāng)?shù)赝品熘鹘?、?fù)興古老的羽蛇神崇拜的漩渦；西波里亞諾身上所具有的深湛的男性的力量深深吸引了她，使她領(lǐng)悟到一切真正的生活應(yīng)開始于男女充滿活力的性愛關(guān)系中，即實(shí)現(xiàn)希臘人的那個(gè)占老的傳說：男女合為一體，而這正是解決當(dāng)代人深感困惑的靈與肉的分裂的關(guān)鍵所在。
《羽蛇》通篇是一個(gè)非比尋常的有關(guān)性、宗教和政治的寓言，勞倫斯痛感現(xiàn)代文明的脆弱和衰敗，并確信美洲占教中所具有的神秘力量足以使得日益衰頹的西方文明重獲陽剛之氣。本書風(fēng)格獨(dú)特，蘊(yùn)含深刻，在勞倫斯的后期創(chuàng)作中與有重要地位。

作者簡介

　　D.H. LAWRENCE （1885-1930），one of the greatest figures in 2oth-century English literature. Lawrence saw sex and intuition as ways to undistorted perception of reality and means to respond to the inhumanity of the industrial culture. From Lawrence's doctrines of sexual freedom arose obscenity trials， which had a deep effect on the relationship between literature and society.　　In I9I2 he wrote： "What the blood feels， and believes， and says， is always true. Lawrence's life after World War I was marked with continuous and restless wandering.

章節(jié)摘錄

　　CRITICS often regard The Plumed Serpent （1926） as theheight of Lawrence's interest in authoritarian politics.lHowever， if this novel represents the most notoriousinstance of Lawrence's proto-fascist leanings， it also ushersin a much-noted moment of vacillation in his politicalthought. Within a year after its publication， Lawrencewrote letters that appear to repudiate his leadership vision.One written to Trigant Burrow on 13 July 1927 refers to the"hero illusion"， while another to Witter Bynner dated 13March 1928 flatly asserts that "The hero is obsolete， andthe leader of men is a back number. After all， at the backof the hero is the militant ideal： and the militant ideal， orthe ideal militant， seems to me also a cold egg. I agree withyou， the leader-cum-follower relationship is a bore，，.2It is the contention of tlus essay that these letters do notinaugurate a new stage in Lawrence's thought but rathercontinue an earlier one. Indeed， lus ambivalence regardingleadership politics emerges prior to the drafting of theseletters and even to the publication of The Plumed Serpent. Itarises during the writing of the novelitself.　　……
