摘要
我的论文提供了对Ngugi Wa Thiong 'o的《Matigari》(1989)的解读，并调查了家庭空间作为抗议场所的使用。这是马蒂加里在小说中努力找回的家庭空间。马蒂加里所进行的旅程隐喻地与他的内心之旅交织在一起——记忆领域的旅程。在《马蒂加里》(1989)中，马蒂加里在一个匿名国家(被认定为肯尼亚)独立后寻找家园空间，最终以新殖民主义压迫的残酷发现而告终，这标志着民族主义梦想的破灭。因此，我在本文中的主要目的是分析小说中人物所进行的旅程，在此过程中，我也将试图解释定义这些旅程的空间政治。
My paper offers a reading of Ngugi Wa Thiong’o’s Matigari (1989) and investigates the use of the home space as a site of protest. It is the home space that Matigari struggles to retrieve in the novel. The journeys undertaken by Matigari are metaphorically interwoven with his journeys within-the journeys in the realm of memory. In Matigari (1989), Matigari’s search for a home space in the aftermath of the independence of an anonymous nation (identified as Kenya) culminates in the grim discovery of the neocolonial oppression that marks the collapse of the nationalist dreams. Hence, my main aim in this paper is to analyse the journeys undertaken by the characters in the novel, and in doing so, I will also try to explain the spatial politics that define these journeys.
