摘要
在符号层面上,丹·布朗对传世名画中约定俗成的宗教文化符号进行再阐释,在业已形成的象征内部反转象征,又在语言内部破坏既定解读模式,从而将科学元素纳入宗教话语之中。在人物层面上,作者通过阐释索菲的血脉和社会身份、阿林加洛沙和塞拉斯的伦理悖论、达·芬奇与牛顿的宗教信仰和科学创造,进一步化宗教与科学的矛盾为统一。借符号和人物的反转,丹·布朗在新的时代语境下对“人”与“神”的地位进行重估,将自然选择推进为伦理选择;而当人神之争落入人性之争,科技又使现代人的时空意识发生变化,给古老的宗教提出难题,为宗教和科学的关系带来新的挑战,启发人们进一步思考科学时代的人类命运和伦理标准。
At the symbolic level,Dan Brown reinterprets the conventional religious symbols in the heirloom paintings,reversing the established symbols and disrupting the“established patterns”of interpretation within language,thus breaking down the solid and self-imposed religious discourse and incorporating scientific elements into it.At the level of the characters,the author further turns the opposition between religion and science into unity through the lineage and social identity of Sophie,the ethical paradox of Aringarosa and Silas,as well as the religious belief and scientific creation of Da Vinci and Newton.Through the reversal of symbols and characters,Dan Brown reassesses the status of“man”and“God”in the new context of the times,advancing natural choice into ethical choice;and when the battle between man and God falls into the dispute over humanity,in the face of the many changes in technology,modern man s awareness of time and space has changed,which in turn poses a problem for the ancient religious beliefs and brings new thoughts to the relationship between religion and science,inspiring further reflection on human destiny and ethical standards in the age of science.
