【摘要】 19世纪美国小说家、散文家和诗人赫尔曼·麦尔维尔被认为是继霍桑之后美国浪漫主义文学最杰出的代表,其代表作《白鲸》堪称世界海洋文学的经典巨著。小说从不同的侧面折射出了不同的含义,无论是丰富的航海、鲸类学知识还是波澜壮阔的历险故事描写,都向世人展现了一个异样的,甚至是闻所未闻的世界。1914年,俄国形式主义的代表人物维·什克洛夫斯基(Victor Shklovsky)在其纲领性宣言——《语词的复活》中,提出了以突出强调艺术语言的审美特征为主旨的陌生化理论,引起了学术界较为强烈的反响。学界对《白鲸》进行了较为全面的研究。然而,截止目前还极少有学者运用陌生化理论对《白鲸》进行系统性的研究。作为一次大胆的尝试,本文旨在从主题、叙事角度、人物形象、意象和修辞手法五大方面,深入分析、论证《白鲸》的创作是如何运用陌生化理论,取得了新奇的艺术效果,从而带给读者以全新的审美体验和内心感受。本文意在从一个全新的视角揭示《白鲸》的文学艺术魅力和精神内涵,从而为同类抑或非同类的文学作品批评,甚至是跨学科的其他领域的艺术研究提供可借鉴之处。更多还原

In the hope of bringing available experience for the art works criticism of the same kind or the like, the writer of this thesis makes such a brave try.更多还原
