摘要
摘要:艾丽丝·门罗的《温洛克边缘》是一部互文性很强的作品,为她与文学史的接触提供了一个寓言。在故事离奇的中心场景中,一个裸体的年轻女子在一个私人图书馆里为一位年长的绅士大声朗读a . E.豪斯曼(a . E. Housman)的作品,在她裸露的环境中,让人想起口头文化、民间文化或外来文化是如何进入文学经典的。这个人物的来源,我称之为图书馆里的尸体,是门罗的祖先玛格丽特·霍格,她为沃尔特·斯科特爵士演唱民谣;它的其他版本出现在故事的互文中(豪斯曼,高文,柏拉图),以及门罗早期的文化启蒙故事中。
The Body in the Library: Affect, Intertextuality, and Literary History in Alice Munro's "Wenlock Edge"
Abstract:Alice Munro's densely intertextual "Wenlock Edge" offers an allegory for her engagement with literary history. In the story's uncanny central scene, a naked young woman reads A. E. Housman aloud in a private library for an elderly gentleman, evoking in her exposed condition how oral or folk or outsider culture enters the literary canon. A source for this figure, which I call the body in the library, is Munro's ancestor Margaret Hogg, who performed ballads for Sir Walter Scott; other versions of it appear in the story's intertexts (Housman, Gawain, Plato), as well as in Munro's earlier stories of cultural initiation.
