摘要/Abstract

内容摘要： 美国作家温德尔·贝瑞的创作以书写家庭农场为切入点,批评美国农业企业化,描绘生态田园风景,表达新型重农主义主题。其威廉港镇系列小说中的家庭农场书写凸显了处所意识、乡村社区复兴与生态田园想象等三个主要维度,分别在个体依附、社区情感维系和后田园主义理想三个层面渐次推进并形成有机统一。家庭农场是连接贝瑞笔下农民、农耕、社区和后田园主义理想的中间纽带。细考贝瑞笔下的家庭农场书写,有助于反思现代工业文明进程造成的农业发展传统失轨,深入理解贝瑞的新型重农主义思想。

关键词: 温德尔·贝瑞, 家庭农场, 处所, 乡村社区, 生态田园

Abstract: American writer, Wendell Berry, uses family farm writing as an entry point to criticize the agribusiness in America, depict the ecological pastoral landscape, and address the theme of new agrarianism in his novels. Berry's family farm writing in his Port William novel series foregrounds three main dimensions, including the sense of place, the revival of rural community, and the envisioning of ecological pastoral, all of which progress gradually and formulate an organic unity in three aspects, namely, individual attachment, the preservation of community affection, and the post-pastoral ideal. In Berry's writing, family farm is the pivot that connects farmers, farming, community, and post-pastoral ideals. A close study of Berry's family farm writing may help us reflect on the loss of agricultural tradition in the wake of modern industrial civilization and deepen our understanding of Berry's thoughts of new agrarianism.

Key words: Berry, family farm, place, rural community, ecological pastoral
