Elizabeth I（2）: The Golden Age Analyzed From the Perspective of Intertextuality_英语论文

摘要

20世纪30年代，巴赫金提出“复调”(polyphony)、“对话性”(dialogism)等核心概念对互文性理论的形成产生了直接的影响,并成为其理论精髓奠定了基础。互文性这一术语自20世纪70年代由法国后结构主义批评家朱莉娅•克里斯蒂娃(Julia Kristeva)提出以来,这一理论一直受到国内外学者们的高度关注。互文性作为一个重要批评概念, 随即成为后现代、后结构批评的标识性术语，研究互文性理论对于文本分析和赏析有重要的指导意义。互文性理论可以分为广义互文性和狭义互文性，积极互文性和消极互文性，宏观互文性和微观互文性等等。

本文用互文性理论分析《伊丽莎白：黄金时代》这部电影，探讨了小说文本到影视文本的忠实度和边界，发现文学影视改编受诸多政治、心理、美学因素影响。一般都体现了再创造者的个人价值观，一方面为了迎合市场需求，另一方面则是用艺术手段来向观众表达作者情感。

Abstract

In the 1930s, Bakhtin proposed that the core concepts such as “polyphony” and “dialogism” have had a direct impact on the formation of intertextuality theory and have laid the foundation for the essence of the theory. The term “intertextuality” is proposed by Julia Kristeva, a post-structuralist critics of France which has been highly concerned by scholars at home and abroad since the 1970s. Intertextuality as an important concept of criticism, then become postmodern, post-structural criticism of the terminology, the study of intertextuality theory for text analysis and appreciation of an important guiding significance. Intertextuality theory can be divided into general intertextuality and narrow intertextuality, positive intertextuality and negative intertextuality, macroscopic intertextuality and microinterlanguage.

This paper analyzes the film Elizabeth: The Golden Age with the theory of intertextuality, discusses the fidelity of the novel text to the text of the film and television, and finds that the adaptation of the literary film and television is influenced by political, psychological and aesthetic factors. On the one hand adaption of film in to meet the market demand, on the other hand is the use of artistic means to express the feelings of the audience. Films usually reflect the re-creator’s personal values.
