内容摘要: 从“复魅”的角度看,英国诗人济慈的生态敏感主要体现在他对万物平等的体认,对万物无限性和神秘性的感知以及对万物活力抱有的孩童般的欣喜。在济慈著名的三首颂歌中,“迷魅”既是极力表达的主题,也是结构性叙事策略:《夜莺颂》里,说话人(或诗人)先是变得麻木,继而随着夜莺的歌声,迷魅在跨越时空的“广阔户外”中,最后惆怅地回到现实;《希腊古瓮颂》里,说话人先是对着古瓮表达好奇和思考,随即陷入古瓮悠远而神秘的过去,与古瓮合二为一;《秋颂》里,说话人一开始即被立体而动感的秋所迷魅,追随动感十足的秋的脚步,聆听其美妙的音乐,一直到诗歌结束。济慈的复魅叙事在当今“后人类中心”时代有特别重要的价值。

Abstract: Seen from the perspective of “re-enchantment”, Keats’s ecological sensitivity mostly manifests itself in his recognition of the ontological equality of all things, his perception of their infinity and mystery, and his childlike delight in their vitality. “Enchantment” is both the dominant theme and structuring narrative strategy in his three well-known odes. In “Ode to a Nightingale”, the speaker (or the poet himself) falls into a state of drowsy numbness at first, and then becomes enchanted, by the song of the nightingale, into “the Great Outdoors” that transcends time and space before waking up to realities wistfully; in “Ode on a Grecian Urn”, the speaker first expresses his wonder and musing over the Grecian urn, but then suddenly finds himself lost to its distant and mysterious past and becomes melted into it; in “To Autumn”, the speaker, who seems to have been enchanted by the cubist and dynamic image of the autumn at the very start, follows its lively steps and listens to its beautiful music all the way through the end of the poem. Keats’s narrative of re-enchantment still has an extremely vital relevance to the Post-Anthropocentric era we live in today.
