摘要
在东西方描写性爱的小说中,兰陵笑笑生的《金瓶梅》和D.H.劳伦斯的《查太莱夫人的情人》是影响最大、争议最多的两部作品,由于这两部小说产生于不同时代、不同国家,以及这两位作者对性的主观认识和艺术修养的差异,导致了在性欲描写上的很大差异。本文通过比较认为,《金瓶梅》主要是以男性为中心,描写性的放纵和淫荡,畸形和变态,体现了肉欲狂欢的世俗精神,但强调戒色劝善的主旨,体现出作者在创作主旨上的戒色禁欲与具体描写上的淫荡纵欲的矛盾。《查太莱夫人的情人》主要是以女性为中心,描写性的自然与美妙,合理与圣洁,张扬了灵魂与肉体、生命与激情交融的巨大活力,表现出作者在性认识上的人本精神以及在性描写上的唯美倾向。
Of all novels carrying description of sex, The Plum in the Golden Vase by Lanling Xiaoxiao Sheng and Lady Chatterley＇ s Lover by D. H. Lawrence, respectively from China and Britain, are the most influential and controversial. But there is a distinctive difference in the description of sex between these two novels, just due to different eras and cultures in which they were produced and to the difference in the two authors＇ ideas about sex and artistic accomplishment. The Plum in the Golden Vase offers male-centered descriptions of the indulgent, lewd and abnormal sex, and embodies a worldly spirit of flesh carnival with an emphasis on the purpose of abstention from lust and expostulation on kindness, thus reflecting a contradiction between the author＇ s purpose and his lustful and leching description of sex. In contrast, Lady Chatterley＇ s Lover ves a mainly female-centered description of the natural, beautiful, reasonable and sacred sex, highlights the vitality of the unified soul and flesh, thor＇ s humanist spirit in his conception of sex and and life and passion, and thus reflects the auaestheticist tendency in his description of sex.
