摘要
《静止的生活》是英国当代作家A.S.拜厄特四部曲的第二部。作为主要人物之一的斯蒂芬妮在小说结尾出人意料地触电身亡,成为作品中最大的隐喻。本文从语言风格、词汇意义、语言功能入手,以弗洛伊德死亡本能理论、康德道德宗教概念、以及死亡与悲剧的内在关系解读斯蒂芬妮的生死意义,通过对其死亡场景描写的探究分析其死亡的深层次动因,指出积极的死亡以否定的形式传达生命的力量,其意义在于开启生者新的生命,并以此分析拜厄特的生死哲学观。

On the basis of Freudian death instinct, Kant＇s moral religion, and the relationship between death and tragedy, this paper analyzes the signification of Stephanie＇s death from the perspectives of prose style, lexical meaning, and language function. Deathconveys the power of life in a negative way to start a new life, through which the motivation of Stephanie~ death and Byatt＇s view on death are presented
