摘　　要：自"9·11"恐怖事件以后,当代美国小说家对社会风险的忧虑加剧,他们在小说中更为敏锐地反映了人们所面临的各种风险。对于当代美国小说研究而言,新兴的社会科学——"风险理论"或许可以用来解读部分非常出色的小说家如德里罗和鲍尔斯的作品。他们把小说人物放置在具有多重风险的社会环境中,让他们去挑战传统的认知方式,获取恶劣条件下生存和死亡的体验,从而再现了复杂的全球性技术经济等风险体系,拓展了后现代小说的多元主题。Since 9/11 terrorist event, contemporary Amedcan novelists have become more concerned with differ- ent kinds of social risks, and thus sensitively reflected them in their novels. For the research of contemporary A- merican novels, the newly-risen social science -- Risk Theory may be precisely applied to interpret some of the most excellent novels, such as those of DeLillo＇ s and Powers＇. The characters of the novels are put into the social environment with many kinds of risks to challenge the traditional cognitive ways by undergoing the bad liv- ing and dying conditions. Therefore, the risk systems of complex global technology and economy are represen- ted and the multiple themes of Post-modernist novels expanded.
