基于言语行为解读《了不起的盖茨比》反讽艺术

Interpretation of the Ironic Art of The Great Gatsby Based on Speech Act Theory

摘要: 本文以《了不起的盖茨比》(巫宁坤译)为文本，借助言语行为理论框架，从宏观和微观角度分析小说反讽言语，深入解读角色心理，揭示小说主旨，使读者领略菲茨杰拉德独特的反讽艺术。研究力图证明小说中各种形式的反讽同普通语言中的反讽一样，均可在言语行为理论框架中得到诠释，从而进一步验证语用学理论用于文学作品赏析的可行性，为未来文学研究提供些许借鉴。

Abstract: Taking The Great Gatsby (Wu Ningkun version) as the text, this paper analyzes the irony art of this novel from the macro and micro perspectives with the help of Speech Act Theory. The author manages to make a deep interpretation of the psychology of characters, reveal the main theme and enable readers to appreciate Fitzgerald’s unique artistic style of irony. This study proves that all forms of irony in novels are the same as irony in ordinary language, which can be interpreted in the framework of Speech Act Theory, so as to further verify the feasibility of applying pragmatic theory to the appreciation of literary works, and provide some references for literature research in future.
