Abstract:Out of Africa is Isak Dinesen’s representative work and greatest achievement, to which most of the critical attention has been given. The book tells the story of a farm that the narrator once had in Africa. Through the description of her African days, Dinesen shows an almost mystical love for Africa and its people. This research paper studies Dinesen’s attitude towards colonialism in three parts: her colonial tendency, the awakening of anti-colonial attitude in the bottom of her heart and the causes of this contradiction. And it concludes that through Out of Africa Dinesen shows a self-contradictory attitude towards the colonialism.
Key Words:Isak Dinesen; Out of Africa; colonialism; anti-colonialism; contradiction
中文摘要:《走出非洲》是迪内森的代表作,是其最受评论家最关注的作品。该书讲述了作者在非洲的农场故事。通过记录她的非洲生活,迪内森表现出了对非洲及其人民谜样的爱。但她同时也表现出了一定的矛盾性。本论文将着重从三个方面分析迪内森的殖民主义态度:迪内森无可避免的殖民者态度;迪内森内心深处萌芽的反殖民意识;及此种矛盾的成因。由此得出结论《走出非洲》表现了迪内森兼具殖民与反殖民态度的这一内在矛盾。
