論《荒野的呼喚》中的荒野意蘊(yùn)
[Abstract]:Jack London is one of the greatest novelists in the period of American social transformation in the late 19th century and early 20th century. Many of his works are classified as American literary classics. Wilderness is an indispensable and unique background in his novels. London is called a wilderness writer for its wonderful description of wilderness. Call of the Wilderness (1903), as a typical wilderness work, is recognized as Jack London's best work. Critics mainly discuss the characters, narrative structure and language characteristics of the novel, but pay less attention to its wilderness background and theme meaning. From the perspective of cultural criticism, this paper aims to interpret the wildness of this novel, which is not only the animal story of dogs, but also the fable of life. London, based on its own experience of the northern frontier at the beginning of the 20th century, a period of rapid economic growth in the United States and a period of sharp social strife, created this work through the story of a dog. It symbolically expresses the concern about the living conditions and the vitality of American people in the early 20th century. Based on the historical and cultural background of American society at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, this paper discusses the living conditions and fate of the three types of characters living in the wilderness. This paper makes a deep analysis of the meaning of wilderness in the works, and excavates the ideological illusion, the power relationship and the pursuit of positive freedom behind the text. The main body of the article consists of three chapters. Firstly, the paper analyzes that the wilderness is an unreal place of hope for the gold miners who symbolize the immigrants, and they are seduced by the ideological illusion constructed by religion and the media, that is, the American dream. Run to the wilderness for hope and die here. Then it is explained that the wilderness means the abyss of despair for the sled dogs who symbolize the underclass, who struggle to survive in the network of power relations of violence and discipline, and end up in cruel laws of violence and endless servitude. Finally, it is analyzed that the wilderness is a happy playground for the wolves who symbolize the strong. Only the strong finally overcome "negative freedom", realize "positive freedom", and experience the freedom and wildness of life itself. The conclusion illustrates London's thinking on life, that is, the living state of the strong is the wild vitality of life itself.
