摘要

托马斯·哈迪的《原住民的回归》（1878）因其对人类与环境关系的认真关注而受到赞誉。哈迪以惊人的流动性追溯了当地社区、生态系统、经济和国家政治结构之间的复杂关系。本文认为，他对细节的关注为荒原在英国历史发展中的作用提供了重要的说明。在这样做的过程中，它还将废物类别确立为叙事小说人物网络的一个功能元素。尽管哈迪对浪费的关注源于对英国农村劳动者的尊重，以及对资本主义前社会和经济生活模式的怀念，但他对英国节俭和想象力的推崇，却掩盖了一种与英国帝国意识形态的产生共同延伸的民族主义形式。

Bleak Prospects: Wasteland and National Identity in Thomas Hardy's Return of the Native

Thomas Hardy's The Return of the Native (1878) has been praised for its careful attention to the relationship between humans and their environment. Hardy traces the intricate relationship between local community, ecosystem, economy, and national political structures with surprising fluidity. This essay argues that his attention to detail provides an important account of the function of the wasteland in English historical development. In doing so, it also establishes the category of waste as a functional element of the character networks of narrative fiction. While Hardy's attention to waste emerges from a respect for the English rural laborer and a nostalgia for precapitalist modes of social and economic life, his valorization of English parsimony and imagination nonetheless subtend a form of nationalism coextensive with the production of British imperial ideology.
