摘要
约翰·福特(John Ford)的戏剧《可惜她是妓女》(Tis Pity She’s a Whore)对幸福状态进行了引人入胜的演绎。它的丑闻情节围绕着两个兄弟姐妹乔瓦尼和安娜贝拉之间的乱伦关系展开,观众对早期现代幸福观进行了复杂的讨论。福特的剧本处于世俗和神学对幸福含义的解读之间的模糊地带,讲述了主人公渴望获得并过上自己版本的幸福所带来的冲突和灾难。
John Ford’s play ’Tis Pity She’s a Whore offers a compelling rendering of the state of happiness. Its scandalous plot, which revolves around the incestuous relationship between the two siblings Giovanni and Annabella, confronts the audience with an intricate discussion of early modern notions of happiness. Situated in the ambiguous sphere between a secular and a theological reading of what it means to be happy, Ford’s play stages the conflicts and the calamities that derive from its protagonists’ eager attempt to attain and to live their own version of happiness.
