摘要

Austerlitz was the German expatriate author W. G. Sebald's last book before his untimely death in 2001. Greeted with great critical acclaim, the novel is a profound meditation on history, memory, and loss. Sebald's larger attempt to represent and memorialise the lasting trauma of the Holocaust, in an oblique and understated rather than a literal way, led him to a new kind of literary expression described by Eric Homberger as 'part hybrid novel, part memoir and part travelogue'. What is most interesting about Austerlitz, for the purposes of this article, is that it makes so much use of architecture. In this, it joins a tradition of literary works that treat architecture as a metaphor for human endeavour and artifice, social structures, and attempts to order and construct the world. But, there is more to the buildings in Austerlitz. The book offers insights into the larger meaning - often, but not always, melancholy - of architecture in culture and society, past and present. This is elucidated at a personal level, in the way that surroundings and spatial atmospheres can affect the emotional life of an individual, and also at a collective level, in the way that buildings bear witness to, and last beyond, the trials and duration of a single human life.

Sebald)于2001年过世去世前的最后一本书。受到极大的好评,这部小说对历史,记忆和损失都进行了深刻的沉思。 Sebald尝试以一种倾斜,低调而不是直截了当的方式来代表和纪念大屠杀的持续创伤,从而使他产生了一种新的文学表达方式,Eric Homberger将其描述为“部分混合型小说,部分回忆录和部分游记” 。就本文而言,关于奥斯特里茨最有趣的是,它大量使用了架构。在这方面,它加入了文学作品的传统,即将建筑视为人类努力和技巧,社会结构的隐喻,并试图建立秩序和构建世界。但是,奥斯特里茨的建筑物还有更多。这本书对过去和现在的建筑在文化和社会中的更广泛意义(通常但不总是忧郁)提供了见解。这是在个人层面上阐明的,其方式是周围环境和空间气氛会影响个人的情感生活,在集体层面上也阐明了这种方式,即建筑物见证并延续了审判和历时。人类的单一生活。
