美国独立之后,南方地区长期以来游离于北方正统的资本主义经济主流之外,虽然内战后,以奴隶制为基础的种植园经济走向解体,但南方的怠惰与落后仍没有太大的改变。经济发展缓慢,种族矛盾与冲突不断,下层人民命运悲惨,生活前景黯淡,这一切都在随后的“美国南方文艺复兴当中”深切地流露出来。传统与现代的结合是当时文学的最主要特征,而其中的集大成者非福克纳莫属,虽然他的小说采用了现代主义的叙事技巧,晦涩难懂,但其小说的内涵却深深扎根于南方的土壤,与南方古老的文化与历史传统密不可分;因此可以说理解福克纳心中的南方世界便是理解他小说深刻内涵的基础与前提,本文从其代表作《喧哗与骚动》入手,具体来分析与揣摩在福克纳眼中,美国南方的未来将何去何从。 After the independence of the United States, the southern region has long been free from the mainstream of the economic orthodox capitalism in the north. Although the slaying-based plantation economy has been disintegrated after the civil war, the laziness and backwardness of the south have not changed much. The slow economic development, constant ethnic conflicts and conflicts, the tragic fate of the people at lower levels, and the gloomy prospects for life are all revealed in the ensuing “American Southern Renaissance.” The combination of tradition and modernity was the most important feature of the literature at that time, and the master of non-Faulkner’s genre was obscure although his novel adopted the narrative techniques of modernism. However, the connotation of his novel was deeply rooted The soil in the south is inextricably linked with the ancient culture and history in the south. Therefore, it can be said that to understand the southern world in Faulkner’s foundation is the basis and premise for understanding the profound connotation of his novels. Starting with his masterpiece Sound and Fury, Specifically analyze and try to figure out in the eyes of Faulkner, the future of the United States will go from here.
