Thomas Hardy and Postcolonialism

托马斯哈代在其作品中创造了混沌与秩序（意义）的对立地图，意味深长地象征性地表现了自然与文明的对立。这种对立可以扩展到殖民地与帝国的对立，也可以扩展到他的故乡多塞特郡与英格兰的对立。他的批判眼光使他能够更客观地看待这些对立，我认为，这种视角是非常重要的，当我们阅读托马斯哈代的后殖民文本。

Thomas Hardy has created in his work the map of opposition between chaos and order (meaning), which is meaningfully and symbolically represented the opposition between nature and civilization. This opposition can be extended to the opposition between colony and empire as well as his native Dorset and England. His critical eye enabled him to see these oppositions more objectively, and I have argued that this perspective is very important when we read Thomas Hardy's post-colonial texts.
