《到灯塔去》的叙事方式研究
一、综述国内外对本课题的研究动态,说明选题的依据和意义:《到灯塔去》为英国著名女作家弗吉尼亚•伍尔夫的意识流杰作,在《到灯塔去》中意识流的叙事方式运用得尤为精彩。伍尔夫认为现实生活事实上是由普通人在一个瞬间接受的数不清的印象构成,她的小说以表现人物的心理活动为主。《到灯塔去》靠一个个人物的内心独白来展现、以自由联想组织故事,把意识流叙事手法运用到极致。而在时间上有意打破传统时间观念和传统心理小说的顺时序,消除逻辑时间界限,将感觉中的过去、现在和将来拧在一起组成主观心理时间,随人物心理时间的变化结构作品。梅•弗里德曼认为内心独白可再现意识的任一邻域。法国哲学家亨利•柏格森认为心理时间是各个时刻相互渗透的质的概念。瞿世镜认为意识流小说着力描写人物心理的种种感受,开掘深层的意识来展露隐蔽的灵魂和内心世界。目前国内外对伍尔夫作品的研究多在其主题上,而对《到灯塔去》的研究大致是女性主义和小说的结构,人物的心理描写及书中的艺术。在创作上,韩世轶对小说叙事角度与话语模式作了探讨;程倩讨论了美学机制;李森分析了其中的意识流写作技巧。
本文将从叙事方式的角度分析此小说的的写作特征,依靠前人的研究方法和研究成果,试图在

二、 研究的基本内容,拟解决的主要问题:
伍尔夫的小说《到灯塔去》是一本意识流小说的杰作,书中没有完整的故事情节,仅仅靠叙事者改变和自由联想来组织故事,小说的主体是一个个人物自己的内心独白,而时间上将感觉中的过去、现在和将来拧在一起交错对照组成主观心理时间。本文将从自由联想组织故事(通过人物的意识流动把一些特定的思想情感及印象按一定顺序安排)、间接内心独白(通过书中人物的视角来叙述,从不同角度揭示人物心理变化并自由地出入人物精神世界)以及客观时间和心理时间交错这三个方面探讨书中的独特叙事方式,分析伍尔夫小说的叙事特点及意识流小说的叙事手法在书中的应用,希望能使人们更加理解意识流小说杰作《到灯塔去》及其独特叙事方式,并能借鉴、应用。

Over the years, various comments and reviews have been applied to this novel, they have placed Woolf within a psychoanalytic framework, feminism and postmodernism, and they also studied her narrative methods. Woolf believes that novelists try to capture the evanescent moments of being and not conform to the conventional fiction plot or characterization. According to Leaska, “Almost half the first ction is transmitted through Mrs. Ramsay; more than three-quarters of the cond ction is given omnisciently; and more than half of the third ction is filtered through Lily Briscoe.” (147) Li Sen analys the technique of stream of consciousness in To the Lighthou. He believes her “inner subjective realistic theory” express the real life profoundly (李森 23). Qing Hong states in her thesis, “The moment of being epiphany in To the Lighthou”, she thinks the epiphany is put on the joint of the interweaving of clock time and external time (秦红 37).
