【摘要】 日裔当代英国作家石黑一雄一直以来广受读者和学术界的追捧。迄今为止，石黑一雄相继出版的六本小说，为他赢得了最具声望的文学奖项和文学美誉。石黑一雄作品《别让我走》（Never Let Me Go，2005）荣获多个奖项的提名，其中包括2005年英国布克奖提名，2005年美国国家书评奖提名以及2006年亚瑟·C克拉克科幻小说奖项的提名。《别让我走》也被《时代》杂志誉为2005年最好的小说之一。在小说中，石黑一雄采用第一人称叙述，以克隆人作为人物叙述者。作为一个克隆人，人物叙述者凯茜回顾了在黑尔舍姆寄宿学校的童年生活、在村舍的青少年生活以及成年后作为看护的工作经历。这些克隆人被剥夺了基本的人权，他们的命运就是给人类提供身体器官。面临这样残酷的现实，克隆人没有任何反抗和逃亡的意识，只是顺从地接受他们的悲剧命运。《别让我走》自出版以来，就受到西方评论界的极大关注。作为后经典叙事学的主力军，修辞叙事学尤其注重作者、叙述者与读者之间的交流关系。詹姆斯·费伦不仅是第三代芝加歌学派的领军人物，而且也是蜚声世界文坛的学者。在詹姆斯·费伦看来，叙事判断在修辞叙事学中发挥着重要作用。在借鉴相关研究的基础上，本文试图独辟蹊径，从修辞叙事学的角度，深入剖析小说中的叙事判断，以此希冀能够拓宽小说《别让我走》的研究维度。本文由六章组成。第一章为引论，在介绍石黑一雄的生平和创作历程后，概述了《别让我走》的情节及相关的文献综述.第二章解析了本文所涉及到的修辞叙事学中的叙事判断理论。由詹姆斯·费伦所提出的叙事判断理论共三个部分组成，分别是阐释判断、伦理判断以及审美判断。第三章紧扣“攫取克隆人器官”这一核心事件，分析人物叙述者、隐含读者和隐含作者各自所做出的阐释判断。第四章紧扣“攫取克隆人器官”这一核心事件，分析人物叙述者、隐含读者和隐含作者各自所做出的伦理判断。第五章探讨修辞美学的重构和评价，以此来分析审美判断。第六章为结论部分。在总结了本文中所涵盖的要点后，表明阐释判断、伦理判断以及审美判断之间的相互依存和相互作用的关系将小说构建成为一个有机整体，并指出叙事判断开拓了读者新的阅读视野。更多还原

【Abstract】 Kazuo Ishiguro, a contemporary Japanese-born British novelist, has been warmlyreceived by the reading public and the academic community. Up till now, Ishiguro haspublished six novels which have brought him prestigious literary prizes and literaryreputation.Never Let Me Go (2005)，Kazuo Ishiguro’ latest novel, was nominated for the2005Booker Prize, the2005U.S. National Book Critics Circle Award，and for the2006Arthur C. Clarke award for science fiction. Never Let Me Go was alsorecognized by TIME magazine as the best novel of2005. The novel is written in thefirst-person narrative style. Kazuo Ishiguro uses a clone as the character narrator. As aclone, the character narrator Kathy H reminisces about childhood at Hailshamboarding school, adolescence at cottage and work experience as a carer. They aredenied the basic human rights and predestined to furnish humans with body partsbefore they get old. In the face of harsh reality, the clones passively accept their tragicfates without resistance and escape.Since the publication of Never Let Me Go, it has gained much attention from thewestern critics. As the mainstay of post-classical narratology, rhetorical narratologyputs great emphasis on the multilayered communication from author, narrator andaudience. As an internationally recognized literary scholar, James Phelan is the leaderof the third generation of Chicago School. According to James Phelan, narrativejudgments perform a vital function in rhetorical narratology. On the basis of therelated research, the dissertation，in hope of opening up a new dimension, purports toexamine narrative judgments in this novel from the perspective of rhetoricalnarratology.The dissertation consists of six chapters. Chapter one is the introduction whichencompasses the life and writing of Kazuo Ishiguro, the plot of Never Let Me Go andits literature review. Chapter two focuses on the theoretical framework of this study，narrative judgments from rhetorical narratology. The theory of narrative judgmentsput forward by James Phelan is composed of three parts, namely, interpretivejudgments, ethical judgments, and aesthetic judgments. Chapter three examinesinterpretive judgments upon “the harvesting of the clones’ organs” made by thecharacter narrator, the implied author and the authorial audience. Chapter four investigates ethic judgments upon “the harvesting of the clones’ organs” made by thecharacter narrator, the implied author and the authorial audience. Chapter fiveexplores aesthetic judgments through the analysis of reconstruction and evaluation ofrhetoric aesthetics. Chapter six is the conclusion. After summarizing the essentialpoints in the dissertation, it points out that the interaction and interconnection ofinterpretive judgments, ethical judgments, and aesthetic judgments shape the novelinto an organic whole. Furthermore, narrative judgments can broaden the readers’horizon.更多还原
