摘要: 艾丽丝·门罗的短篇小说《荒野小站》书写加拿大的建国神话与民族国家身份之间千丝万缕的联系。小说采用哥特式荒野叙事手法,展现加拿大早期移民在建国过程中因为时空位移的改变而造成的位置困惑和身份焦虑。小说描写的加拿大建国神话事实上是新旧符号体系的碰撞,给早期移民带来了巨大的冲击,使他们追求身份的道路更加曲折;而故事中书信体的应用则打破了关于加拿大建国神话的一统化叙事模式,促进人们深入思考民族国家身份问题。

Abstract: Alice Munros Wilderness Station explores the relationship of Canadas nation-building myth and national identity. The novel employs Gothic wilderness narrative to reveal earlier Canadian immigrants identity perplexity and status anxiety because of the spatial displacement in the nation-building process. The Canadian nation-building myth depicted in the novel is actually the collision of the new and old sign systems, which has brought forth great shock upon the earlier immigrants and complicated their identity-seeking process. Besides, the epistolary style in the narration breaks the unified narrative of Canadian nation-building myths, thus encouraging people to reflect upon Canadas national identity.

Key words: Alice Munro, Wilderness Station, Gothic wilderness narrative, nation-building myth, national identity
