【摘要】 美国电影《飞越疯人院》是根据美国作家肯·克西的小说改编而成。电影讲述的是60年代美国某所国家精神病院中病人遭受医院非人道治疗的故事。国内外学界对该电影研究都不少,但从身体角度的研究少有涉及。本文运用福柯的权力和身体理论,分析本电影文本中对权力化身体的种种表述,探讨电影中权力如何作用于身体。权力化的身体体现了权力与身体间的一种关系。本文根据权力作用于身体的不同形式,将权力化身体分为肉体、身体活动和心灵三部分,即全文的三章。第一章描述了电影中所表现的权力直接对肉体的作用,包括强制服用药物、电击和额叶切除手术,并用福柯的理论探讨权力直接作用于肉体的意义。第二章是电影中权力对身体活动的控制。对身体活动的控制相对对直接惩罚身体更加文明,也更加常用,是权力作用于身体的主要形式。疯人院中控制身体的方法有监禁、时间表和行为规范。第三章探讨了对心灵的控制在权力—身体关系中起到的重要作用。在对身体的规训中,“灵魂”成为改造的中心。本文从肉体、身体活动、心灵三个方面探讨电影中的身体与权力的关系,得出《飞越疯人院》中病人的身体是权力化的身体的结论,丰富了关于福柯身体及权力理论的研究。

【Abstract】 The American film One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest is a screen adaptation of the novel One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest by American novelist Ken Kesey. The movie tells a story of the inhumane treatment of patients in a national mental hospital of USA in 1960s. There’s a lot of academic research on this movie both in China and overseas, but the research in the perspectives of body is rare. This thesis applies Michel Foucault’s theory of body to conduct a textual analysis of presentation of powered body in this movie, discussing how power acts on body in the film.Powered body presents a relation between power and body. This thesis, according to different forms of power’s effect on body, subdivide powered body into three parts—physical body, body activity and soul. The thesis is divided into three chapters in accordance with the three parts. Chapter One describes power’s direct effect on physical body in the film, including compulsory medication, electric shock and lobotomy; and then discusses its meaningfulness with Foucault’s theory. Chapter Two is power’s control of body activity in the film. Control of activity is more civilized and more commonly used than direct body penalty. It’s the main way in which power acts on body. The mental hospital controls patients’bodies by means of confinement, schedule and norm. Chapter Three studies the important role of controlling soul in power-body relation. The“soul”of docile bodies becomes the focus of reform.This thesis studies the relationship between body and power in the film from three aspects—physical body, body activity and soul, and puts forward the conclusion that the patients’bodies in the movie are powered bodies. That is an attempt enriching the study of Foucault’s theory of body and theory of power.
