Abstract:

《已知的世界》是非裔美国作家爱德华？琼斯的代表作品，曾获美国最高文学大奖“普利策小说奖”，是一部描述美国黑人奴隶历史的力作。这部小说从微观人物着手来展现宏观的美国奴隶制社会，多条故事线索同时进行、齐头并进，从而达到震撼的艺术效果。本文从多叙述视角、内心独白、梦境与幻觉和时空蒙太奇等意识流写作技巧入手，表达黑人想要寻求身份认同的强烈愿望，对于深化小说主题具有重要作用。
The Known World, an excellent book describing the history of black American people, is the rep-resentative work of African American writer—Edward P. Jones, which has achieved American highest literature award “Pulitzer Prize for fiction”. This novel showed a macro American slave-holding society based on lots of micro characters. It has indeed given readers a shock with its several story lines moving forward together. This essay started with some certain writing skills of stream of consciousness, such as multiple points of view, internal monologue, dream illusion and time-and-space montage, in order to express black people’s strong desire of seeking for identity as well as deepen the theme of the novel.
