菲力蒲·克洛代尔被誉为当代法国“最杰出”的小说家之一。在短篇小说《亡者之言》中,他通过神秘死亡来探讨人与外部世界,人与自然的碰撞与融合,集中讨论小说所展示的现实和超自然,真实与虚构相互交替的世界。作者寄深刻的寓意于“死亡”之中,从而表达了作为人类一员的“自我”对人类命运的关注和责任感。 Philippe Cloydale is reputed as one of the most prominent novelists in contemporary France. Through the mysterious death, he explores the collision and integration of mankind with the outside world, man and nature in the short story “Death of the Dead,” concentrating on the world in which the reality presented by the novel and the supernatural, the real and the fiction alternate. The author sends a profound implication to “Death ”, thus expressing his “self ” as a human concern and sense of responsibility for human destiny.
