On The Conceptions of Time and Order in Faulkner’s The Sound and The Fury

The publication of the famous novel The Sound and The Fury projects the long-enduring reputation of William Faulkner as a household American writer in every nook and cranny of the world.Just in this novel,Faulkner employs the literary device of stream of consciousness and makes a good play with time and order to his own joy,which makes it an outstanding literary feature in the novel.In this essay,the unusual conceptions of time and order in the novel are tentatively probed mainly from the following three perspectives:1) the initiative for Faulkner creating the novel as a novel against time and order.2) the disordered arrangement as an artistic device——the optimum key to delivering the story.3) the potential order underlying the seeming disorder in the novel.

20世纪末中国小说的流变和自由写作

发轫于“五四”新文化运动的中国现代文学以小说为主流,在启蒙意识和功利思想的作用下,一直承担着时代的使命。而20世纪末中国小说发生了极大的流变,逐渐淡化了“五四”启蒙立场和社会功利意识,日常情感和个人体验成为小说叙事的重要内容。20世纪80年代的伤痕反思文学使长期禁锢的文艺政策逐步解冻,寻根文学、先锋文学在摆脱文学过重的负荷,回归文学自身的努力中受挫。在严肃文学被冷落的沉寂中,被商品化思潮左右的大众文化直接影响了文学,使之退居边缘,小说现代叙事在回归故事的通俗性、个性化写作过程中成为日常化、个人化自由写作的具体表现。商业化境遇使20世纪末的小说流变形成了90年代小说很突出的边缘化自由写作的形态。“新写实”小说、新生代作家、女性写作,以及其他小说创作的不同努力,构成了90年代小说的多元格局,使20世纪末的自由写作成为可能,文学的多元自由发展在一定程度上得以实现。
