论期待视野下《蝴蝶梦》的审美距离
On the Aesthetic Distance of Rebecca in the Vision of Expectation

期待视野说明读者阅读作品的主动性。当读者阅读的作品超出自己的期待视野，读者往往会认为它丰富了自己的审美经验，提高了自己的审美水平。当读者意见与作品一致时，读者与作品保持距离，从旁观者角度边欣赏边领悟，美学接受成为可能。本文将从“期待视野”角度出发，剖析小说《蝴蝶梦》中叙述模式、情节结构、人物刻画等蕴含的美学距离，进而解读作者的创作心理。
The horizon of expectation illustrates the reader’s initiative in reading a work. When a reader reads a work beyond his or her horizon of expectation, the reader tends to believe that it enriches his or her aesthetic experience and enhances his or her aesthetic level. Aesthetic acceptance is possible when the reader’s opinion is consistent with the work, when the reader distances himself from the work and appreciates it from a spectator’s point of view. This article will analyze the aesthetic distance in the narrative mode, plot structure and characterization of the novel Rebecca from the perspective of the “horizon of expectation”, and then decipher the author’s creative psychology.
