摘要

现代资本主义时代的机器人文学形象,肇始于《万能机器人》中的罗素姆机器人.作为对现代技术的文学幻想,罗素姆机器人具有明显的身份含混特征.罗素姆机器人的机器生命特点反映出人类生命观念的杂糅,其三重伦理吁求表现出人类伦理观念的杂糅,其善恶同体倾向呈现出人类价值观念的杂糅.这使罗素姆机器人的形象蕴蓄着多重而不确定的意味.机器人的身份含混和由此引发的困境,实质是现代社会人类面临的自我认同危机的折射.由此,罗素姆机器人"我们曾经是机器"的身份迷惘,可视为人类自身"何以为人"的存在叩问.

Abstract

The literary image of robot in the modem capitalist era originated from Rossum's robot in Rossum's Universal Robots.The identity of Rossum's robotic figure is characterized by distinct ambiguity as a literary fantasy of modern technology.The robotic life of Rossum's robot reflects the hybridity of human conceptions of life,its threefold ethical appeal shows the hybridity of human ethical conceptions,and its tendency towards homogeneity of good and evil presents the hybridity of human values.This gives multiple and uncertain implications to the image of Rossum's robot.The ambiguity of robot identity and the resulting dilemma is essentially a reflection of the crisis of self-identity faced by humans in modern society.In this way,the identity confusion of Rossum's robot,"We used to be machines",can be seen as an existential question of"what makes us human".
