摘要

长期以来,贝克特的评论在讨论记忆时,都将视觉和听觉放在首位。而本研究建议考察贝克特作品中的触觉。触觉和感觉不仅是记忆(或想象,或记忆中从未发生过的事)的突出特征,它们还能触发记忆,身体部位本身也承载着记忆。我认为,在贝克特的战后散文文本中,触摸和拥抱是记忆和记忆表征不可或缺的特征。身体一直是贝克特作品的核心关注点,直到他生命的最后一刻,身体在他作品中的持续存在有助于我们重新理解贝克特小说中的一般认知和具体记忆。

“Old Frantic Fingers”
Beckett criticism has long privileged vision and audition when discussing memory. The present study proposes to examine, rather, tactility in Beckett’s work. Touching and feeling are not only prominent features of what is remembered (or imagined, or remembered as never having occurred); they also trigger remembrance and body parts themselves hold memories. I argue that touching and holding are indispensable features of memories and of representations of remembering in Beckett’s postwar prose texts. The body remains a central preoccupation of his work up until the end of his life, and the body’s persistence in his work can help us revise our understanding of cognition generally, and memory specifically, in Beckett’s fictions.
