现代主义意识流小说1、意识流小说是20世纪初期（20年代）兴起于西方，以表现人们的意识流动、展示恍惚迷离的心灵世界为主的小说。认为文学应表现人物的意识流动，尤其是表现潜意识的活动，人的意识流动遵循的是“心理时间”，而非物理时间。2、它以象征暗示、内心独白、自由联想等意识流的创作方法为主要特征，在本世纪20—30年代英、美、法等国形成一个颇为壮观的现代主义文学流派。3、意识流小说家所运用的艺术手法各有侧重，但艺术特征是共同的：“作家退出小说”；情节淡化；大量的内心独白和自由联想；时空交替和心理时间；象征暗示和对比联想；语言使用上的创新和变异。4、代表作家是爱尔兰的乔伊斯和英国的伍尔芙，法国的普鲁斯特和美国的福克钠。现代主义意识流小说特点详细解说：1、内心独白：意识流小说直接展示所思所感，展示心理的原生态，不加以条理化、逻辑化，作家退出小说，主观干预较少，注重表现人物的意识活动本身。2、采用自由联想的方式，在某对象上稍许停留，任何外在的刺激都可以打断从前的思维过程而展开新的思绪。3、主观性、随意性强，常打破时空限制，跳跃性较大，从心理结构组织流程，而传统小说多在时空的推移中展开情节。4、内容和题材上，传统小说往往全知全能，而在意识流小说中作家地位下降，读者的参与性加强，不注意刻画典型人物，凭借人物的意识来写人，情节淡化。特点详细解说：代表作家及其作品：1、爱尔兰的乔伊斯：《都柏林人》、《青年艺术家的肖像》2、英国的沃尔夫：《墙上的斑点》、《到灯塔去》3、法国的普鲁斯特：《追忆逝水年华》4、美国的福克纳《喧哗与骚动》（1929），反映了南方望族康普生家的没落。小说创造了复合意识流方法，使运用意识流手法去发掘人物的内心生活方面达到了新的高度。着重表现昆丁的变态心理和班吉神经错乱的潜意识活动。人物（长子昆丁、二子杰生、小儿子班吉、女儿凯蒂）代表作家及其作品：TextAppreciationPartI(paras.):PartII(para):PartIII(para):PartIV(para):PartV(para):PartVI(para):345671-2thebeginningpart,introducingthetopicunderdiscussion.the1stobstacletobecomingaprofessionalwomanwriter.
