摘要本文对石黑一雄《别让我走》中的新与旧的世界进行探讨和思考。基于对原文的深入了解,从萨特的存在zhuyi角度出发,联系小说中克隆人的命运,揭示以黑尔舍姆为代表的“旧世界”的美好与虚幻,黑尔舍姆既给予克隆人们童年的幸福回忆,也在欺骗他们的过程中使他们形成了对外部世界的错误认识。克隆人在“新世界”中面临各种困境,随之产生心理变化,从最开始的身份怀疑和重组到自我欺骗,以及最后相信能够在既定的命运中寻求自由,是一个人成长心理的发展。文章最后阐释“新旧世界”所影射的具体现实世界,以及石黑一雄对小说中心的理解,以试图展现主人公所代表的当今社会弱势群体的集体生存状态,达到认识自身生存意义,摆脱社会强权对人身和人性桎梏,追求个人自由的目的。 66388

Title An Analysis of the “New World” and “Old World” in Kazuo Ishiguro’s Never Let Me Go
Abstract The paper analyzes the “new world” and the “old world” in Kazuo Ishiguro’s fiction Never Let Me Go. From the perspective of Sartre’s Existentialism, the paper discloses the illusory nature of the seemingly happy “old world” represented by Hailsham,proving that Hailsham provides the clones with happy memories in their childhood, while misleads them in the way of recognizing the real world. Then the paper explores the clones’ difficulties and the relevant psychological changes caused by the coming of the “new world” , including doubts and reconstruction of self-identity, self-deception and the belief of pursuing freedom in a set fate. The paper also presents the allusion of the two worlds to our real world and Ishiguro’s understanding of the theme of the novel, displaying the collective living status of the inferior people symbolized by the clones in the novel, so as to achieve the goal of realizing inpidual existence, getting rid of the confinement of power politics to the freedom of inpidual’s body and humanity, and encouraging people to pursue personal freedom.
