摘要
《再见,哥伦布》是犹太裔美国作家菲利普·罗斯的第一部作品.罗斯通过犹太裔情侣尼尔和布伦达的失败恋情揭露了20 世纪50 年代美国犹太居民生活中存在"矛盾的共鸣之音",两人分手的背后隐藏着深刻的伦理必然:尼尔所代表的年轻一代犹太知识分子阶层,虽然对犹太传统道德存在诸多看法,但仍认为秉持道德传统是在美国安身立命的基础;布伦达所代表的犹太富裕阶层,则选择完全放弃犹太身份及其相应的道德传统.罗斯通过尼尔与布伦达在恋爱过程中各自做出的伦理选择,表达了自己对保持少数族裔身份问题的伦理思考.
Abstract
Goodbye,Columbus is the first literary accomplishment of Philip Roth,a Jewish American writer.In this novella,Philip Roth reveals the"paradoxical echoing sounds"existed among most of Jewish American residents in the 1950s through the ill-fated love affair between Neil Klugman and Brenda Patimkin and their ethically inevitable break-up.Neil Klugman represented the younger gen-eration of Jewish intellectuals who even though had in mind misunderstandings toward traditional Jewish values and ethical views,still considered the traditional Jewish values indispensable in their own lives.Brenda on the other hand,represented those Jewish upper classes who looked down upon traditional Jewish values and chose to waive their own ethnicity entirely.Through the ethical choices made by Neil and Brenda,Roth freely expressed his own ethical considerations toward the issue of maintaining one's own minority identity at that critical moment.
