扫码查看
在《董贝父子》中,狄更斯以现实的或想象的方式卷入了英国的海权建构尤其是英国的海洋贸易霸权的进程:他在小说中塑造了一幅英国商人群体或普通人卷入帝国如火如荼的海洋贸易扩张的"辉宏"图景,并积极渲染"巍然挺立"的东印度公司巨厦"华丽的"图景和伦敦金融城的繁华"盛景",以此来展现19世纪大英帝国的海洋贸易霸权的现实,从而通过小说撒播了"谁控制了海洋,谁就控制了世界贸易,谁就控制了整个世界"的海权观念.
"Anno Dombey and Son":Charles Dickens'Imagination of British Sea Power
In Dombey and Son,Dickens participates in,in imaginary means or real life experience,the construction of British sea power,especially in the building of hegemony of British maritime trade:by shaping a gallery of characters of British businessmen and ordinary people that have been involved in a grand picture of the empire's booming maritime trade expansion,and further by rendering the gorgeous silhouette of the rich East India House and the contour of the prosperous City of London,Dickens not only fully demonstrates the reality of British hegemony of maritime trade over the world in the 19th century,but spreads through the novel the idea of sea power that"whosoever commands the sea commands the trade… and consequently the world itself".
