摘要
《母亲》“揭示了生命永恒的价值”,作品的原型意象都与生命意识密切相关:“大地与母亲”,是自然之子的生命颂歌,表现了母亲对自然、生命的珍视与热爱;“大地与种子”,是男女性关系的诗性隐喻,再现了母亲强大的生命繁衍能力与担当精神;“母亲与土地公公”,是个人与社会、文化、传统关系的真实写照,彰显了本能与禁忌、生命与伦理的冲突。《母亲》的原型意象在多个层面上表现了赛珍珠的生命意识、女性主义立场、对中国传统家庭制度的矛盾认知,渗透了赛珍珠对生命伦理的深层思考。
Pearl S. Buck’s The Mother reveals the eternal value of life, in which the archetypal images are closely related to life consciousness. The archetypal image of “the Earth and the mother” serves as the son of nature’s ode to life, manifesting the mother’s cherishment and affection for nature and life. The archetypal image “the Earth and the seed” is nothing but the poetic metaphor of sexual relationships between males and females, representing the mother’s solid power of fertility and spirit of responsibility. The archetypal image “the mother and the Civil God of Earth” truly portrays the interrelations between individuals and society, and between culture and tradition, highlighting the conflicts between instinct and taboo, and between life and ethics. The archetypal images in The Mother at multiple levels show Buck’s life consciousness, feminist standpoint, and her contradictory cognition of the Chinese traditional family system and insights into life ethics, infiltrating her deep thinking on life ethics.
