摘　　要：《绿松石矿脉》是一部聚焦于自然界万物而非叙事者的回忆录。西尔科在其书写中承继了美国土著口述故事传统,以充满想象的记忆构建了人类与万物之间的联系,使“它们看着我”的目光成为“我”日常生活中无处不在的情动力量。由此,“我”存在于同自然万物彼此感触的内在作用中;万物的神话性成为“我”现实生活的一部分;“我”在万物的日常性存在中感受着与非人类万物之间相互关照的亲情。西尔科的万物记忆消解了人类与非人类之间的界限,从自我的实践维度实现了人类与自然万物“亲密无间”的共存图景,为人类应对生态危机下日常生活的困境带来了希望。The Turquoise Ledge as a memoir is full of recollections of non-human beings on the earth rather than the narrator. Imbedded in the indigenous oral tradition of North America and employing her imaginative memories, Leslie Marmon Silko’s writing constructs the connection between human and nonhuman beings, in which the sense that “They watched me” becomes an overwhelming affective power in the narrator’s everyday life. Therefore, “I” exist through affective “intra-actions” with all the beings, the myth of everything becomes part of “my” real life and “I” feel embraced by the caring brotherhood or sisterhood with non-human beings through their daily existence. Silko’s reminiscences blur the boundaries between human and non-human, ultimately bringing about an intimate co-existence between them through her personal practice, and showing a viable way out of the dilemmas of everyday human life amid the environmental crisis.
