"Being Both Far Away from Each Other and Close to Each Other":The Ethical Dilemma in Jon Fosse's Plays
In the plays of contemporary Norwegian playwright Jon Fosse,the characters are generally in a difficult or unsolvable ethical dilemma.According to the different ethical connotations and identities,the ethical dilemma in Fosse's plays roughly has three different dimensions.Firstly,due to the indulgence of free will and the loss of self-identity,couples or lovers are in a state of mutual division and refutation,and there is a widespread ethical dilemma of anxiety and anxiety in male and female marriage and love.Secondly,due to misaligned identity cognition and chaotic ethical choices,fathers and children,as well as mothers and children,are in a state of opposition,contradiction,or speechlessness,resulting in a common dilemma of conflicting and unsolvable intergenerational family ethics.Thirdly,due to the cognitive mode of subject object dichotomy and rational logic,individual ideological consciousness is in a state of imbalance and contradiction,and there is a widespread confusion and division of individual ideological and ethical dilemmas.Overall,the ethical dilemmas in Fosse's plays have typical symbolic and paradoxical qualities,obvious fragmentation and uncertainty characteristics,and exhibit an inter sexual tendency that is both distant and close to each other,contradictory and interdependent.Essentially,the ethical dilemma with rich connotations and diverse forms in Fosse's plays can be regarded as a poetic overturning and deconstruction,rhetorical reversal and reconstruction of modem logic,enlightenment rationality,and aesthetic ethics by new humanistic trends such as neo-existentialism,neo-realism,and neo-minimalism in the postmodern wave.
