D.H. Lawrence;; eco-criticism;; eco-consciousness;; vitalism;; unconscious
本文探讨了劳伦斯在诗歌和叙述文本中对人和自然关系的哲学思考,他的哲思,远见和洞察力有着深远的影响和意义。劳伦斯本着生物中心主义和生态主义的视角,对人本主义进行了批判,更加注重人与自然的平衡和统一。在劳伦斯时代,达尔文的生物进化论,弗洛伊德的心理分析和潜意识理论,已经产生深远影响。劳伦斯受到了包括达尔文,弗洛伊德,尼采,以及更为久远的浪漫主义诗人等诸多前辈的影响,。在劳伦斯看来:动物与人处于平等地位,甚至在某些方面,比人类更具优越性,劳伦斯也因此被错误地批判为厌世主义者;作为理性的对立面,潜意识是人类跟自然的交流平台。 本文由五部分构成。第一部分介绍了劳伦斯及生态批评。第二部分主要关于劳伦斯对于自然的生态意识,讨论了劳伦斯中自然界的动物及动物意象:动物是本能的,非理性的,同时也代表了人类的本能部分。第三部分,讨论了人与人之间的关系。人作为大自然必要的,不可分割的组成部分,同样受到劳伦斯的热切关注。而且在劳伦斯看来,性,是激发潜意识的途径,因此也是人与自然交流统一的途径。第四部分揭示了劳伦斯不断推崇本能,潜意识,直觉等的原因:生机论(Vitalism)。生机论是人类生存意志的自然流动,是生活的源泉,是人与自然交流沟通的连接途径。本文结尾第五部分,揭示了劳伦斯作为生态主义,生态批评的先驱者的地位。
This thesis is a study of the poems and narratives of D.H. Lawrence in order to show that Lawrence’s philosophical vision and insights on the relationship between man and nature are of profound significance. With a bio-centric and ecological perspective of balance and wholeness, Lawrence launched his fierce attack on the anthropocentrism at the heart of humanism. Influenced by Darwin, Freud, Nietzsche and Romanticists, Lawrence imbued a legacy of biocentrism, unconsciousness, and anti-rationalism from his predecessors: animals are represented as an equal with, or even superior to humankind and as a source of instinctiveness which should be internalized by humankind; the unconscious, as an opposition to reason, is imagined as a link to the nature around us. The thesis consists of five parts. Starting with an introduction to Lawrence and eco-criticism, the study goes on to discuss the animal imagery as a symbol of human instinctiveness, the opposition to rationalism. Then it engages, in Chapter Three, the inter-human relation, as man and women are still part of this bio-centric wholeness. Chapter Four explores the underlying philosophy behind his constant advocating of the instinctive, the unconscious, the intuitive, and the animal: vitalism. Vitalism is a natural flow of life, or of vital spark, between humankind and the natural world. This thesis concludes that Lawrence is a prophetic and pioneering figure to ecology and eco-criticism.
