摘　　要：在萨拉·朱厄特的《一只白苍鹭》中,主人公西尔维娅在乡村/城市、女性/男性、本土/全球等看似对立实则相互交织影响的辩证动态二元关系中超越狭隘的社会自我,达到了覆及人类边界以外其他存在形式的更为宏观、整体的生态自我认同,认识到白苍鹭具有跟人类平等且无关于人类目的性和效用性的内在价值。由此,西尔维娅决定拒绝向猎人透露白苍鹭的行踪,从而自主选择隐遁乡村。本文指出,西尔维娅的选择并非只有消极逃避的性质,在全球总是在本土中在场,反之亦然的本土/全球的相互依存渗透关系中,小说中的自主隐遁以其对多样性、异质性的保持也同样成为全球化的重要内容,这一点对于生态问题迅速恶化的当下社会具有深远的意义。In the dynamic and dialectical dualism of country/city,feminine/masculine and local/global presented in Sarah Orne Jewett’s "A White Heron",Sylvia,the protagonist of the story,transcends the narrow social self and reaches the ecological self which is covering other existing forms beyond human boundary.Realizing that the white heron has equal and intrinsic value irrelevant of human’s purpose and utility,Sylvia refuses to tell the secret of the white heron’s nestle to the handsome hunter and chooses to live in solitude in the countryside.This paper points out that instead of being merely a passive escape from reality,Sylvia’s choice implies that protecting and promoting diversity and heterogeneity is constitutive of globalization,given that the global is always present in the local and vice versa.Thus,Sylvia’s selfdetermined solitude is of far-reaching significance in contemporary world with rapidly worsening ecological problems.
