中文摘要

本研究在探討狄更斯作品《荒屋》當中的貧民窟意象。此一場域作爲書中諸多角色的心靈試驗場,不僅模糊了倫敦城裡所謂高尚與低劣的區域劃分,也模糊了書中角色的社會階級,如此模糊化讓整部小說的敘事更加複雜,造就了巴赫金所言之小說的多音義系統,讓狄更斯美醜交融的倫敦市景成爲小說角色多樣化的內心寫照。

英文摘要

This research is to analyze the slum, Tom-All-Alone's, in Charles Dickens's Bleak House. The ruinous place, with all the characters' dark connections in it, serves as the area that the characters of upper class must enter and be testified with their desires. In their wondering in the slum, the distinction between the good and bad places in London, just like that between the high and low social ranks, therefore, is blurred with the interactions of the characters. Such blurring contributes to the heterogeneity of Dickens's works, which, in Bakhtin's term, could be understood as ”heterogrossia”, when the characters' performances and speech types are narrated in multiple dialogization. The heterogeneity makes Dickens's London the vivid reflection of his characters' minds.
