摘要/Abstract

内容摘要： 玛丽安·摩尔于20世纪二十年代曾短暂逗留于自由体诗形式,同时开始侵染于现代都市文化与现代绘画艺术之中。在这种语境下,摩尔形成了特有混杂观或杂糅观——汇编诗学;这一观念典型地体现在其“展示与罗列”诗歌技巧和写作模式中。这类诗歌具有典型的抽象特征——非像似性、反叙事性与非线性,但这种抽象不同于通常意义的绘画抽象,而是一种“非绘画抽象”。“展示与罗列”从诗歌形式上是对现代性文化的模仿,但从内容上又构成了对这一文化的反讽,通过对现代性文化及其在此语境中的诗歌创作的多重考察,体现了诗人对现代性文化精神层面的深度思考及诗歌本体问题的深刻关注。

关键词: 玛丽安·摩尔, 展示与罗列, 汇编诗学, 非绘画抽象

Abstract: Marianne Moore used to stick with free verse briefly in the 1920s and began to indulge herself in the culture of modern city and the art of modern painting at the same time. It is in this context that Moore formulated her unique concept of miscellany or hybridity - her poetics of anthology, which is typically demonstrated in her so-called “display and list” poetic technique and writing mode. These poems carry typical features of abstraction - non-iconic, anti-narrative, and non-linear - but this abstraction is different from the painterly abstraction in usual sense; it is a kind of “non-painterly abstraction.” While the “display and list” technique imitates culture of modernity in poetic form, it mocks it in content. Through a multi-layered exploration of this culture and the poetic writing in such a context, these poems reveal the poet's deep reflections on the spiritual aspect of such a culture and her great concern with the ontology of poetry.

Key words: Moore, display and list, poetics of anthology, non-painterly abstraction
