Abstract Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, published in 1865, often considered as a work of children literature. It tells of a girl named Alice who falls down a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. The tale plays with logic, giving the story lasting popularity with adults as well as children. It is regarded to be one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre, and its narrative course and structure, characters and imagery have been enormously influential in both popular culture and literature, especially in the fantasy genre.
This thesis contains the content of the children literature, and combines them with absurd, disorder and ridiculous elements, which derive from post-modernism literature. It focuses on analyzing and summing up with typical represent of black humor and threat of absurd. It is expounded from three parts. From the first part, it blends into black humor elements. Changing from child to adult with losing of innocence, people face awkward changes. In the second part, the absurd condition in the wonderland combining with threat of absurd, it reflects absurd of the postmodernism and hopeless to life of people after war. In the last part, it mainly describes that human confronted with ubiquitous death threat. Under the influence of world war, world structure is changing. Human’s spirit has been ruined. People can’t change threat from death, but they can adjust their inner and keep the real look.
Key words: the treat of death; postmodernism; absurd; black humor
摘要
英国作家查尔斯•罗德文希•道奇森 以路易斯•卡罗尔为笔名，于1865年出版的《爱丽丝漫游仙境》是一部儿童文学作品。故事叙述一个名叫爱丽丝的女孩从兔子洞中掉进了一个神奇的世界中。在这里遇到了很多奇异的经历，最后发现原来都是一场梦。
本文将这部童话内容所体现的荒诞，无序，滑稽世界与后现代主义文学结合，和带有后现代主义色彩的黑色幽默小说及荒诞戏剧派的典型代表作进行分析总结，体现了人类在面临着童真丧失以及死亡威胁时的无奈。本文将从三个方面进行阐述。第一部分讲的是人们童真丧失的无奈改变，融合黑色幽默小说部分，这一部分与美国黑色幽默进行共同分析，体现人们在从孩童到成人过程中，天真无辜的无奈丧失，以及对突如其来的变化的无力掌控。第二部分，爱丽丝漫游仙境中的荒诞情景与荒诞派戏剧融合，体现了后现代主义的荒诞，滑稽色彩以及当时战争造成的人们对生活的无望态度。最后一部分，主要讲人类要面对无处不在的死亡威胁。在各种世界大战的影响下，世界格局在变，人们的心灵也受到了摧残，面对死亡人们或许没法改变，但是对于自己的心态，要适当调整尽量保持着最本真的样貌。7016
