摘要

本文从衰老的视角审视了哈罗德-品特 1959 年的广播剧《微痛》。文章认为，品特利用以声音为基础的技巧来强化主人公爱德华所经历的衰老危机。剧中的卖火柴者充当了听觉上的二重身，代表了爱德华在年轻的自我形象和衰老的身体之间无法解决的冲突，而这种挣扎推动了该剧的心理深度。此外，文章还通过爱德华的片面对话和情感停顿，探讨了他的孤独感，以及他在衰老过程中对时间和空间的迷失体验。品特创新性地使用了无线电设备，增强了内省的深度，鼓励听众从深层次参与爱德华的经历，并以更加感同身受的视角看待复杂的老年生活。

Radio dramatization of aging in Harold Pinter's A Slight Ache

This article examines Harold Pinter's 1959 radio play A Slight Ache through the lens of aging. It argues that Pinter utilizes sound-based techniques to heighten the introspective crisis of aging experienced by the protagonist Edward. The matchseller in the play serves as an auditory doppelgänger, representing Edward's unresolved conflict between his youthful self-image and his aging body, a struggle that drives the play's psychological depth. Moreover, the article explores Edward's loneliness via his one-sided dialogues and emotive pauses, as well as his disoriented experience of time and space in his process of aging. Pinter's innovative use of radiophonic devices enhances the introspective depth, encouraging listeners to engage with Edward's experience on a deeply personal level and a more empathetic view of the complexities of growing older.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Aging Studies features scholarly papers offering new interpretations that challenge existing theory and empirical work. Articles need not deal with the field of aging as a whole, but with any defensibly relevant topic pertinent to the aging experience and related to the broad concerns and subject matter of the social and behavioral sciences and the humanities. The journal emphasizes innovations and critique - new directions in general - regardless of theoretical or methodological orientation or academic discipline. Critical, empirical, or theoretical contributions are welcome.
