摘　　要：在1915年发表的处女作小说《远航》中,弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫描述了女性主人公青年钢琴家蕾切尔·温雷丝乘坐“尤弗罗西尼”号远航前往南美探险的经历。作为一部典型的女性成长体裁小说,伍尔夫以细腻的笔触刻画了蕾切尔女性意识的逐步觉醒过程。本文认为,在某种程度上,《远航》更是一部富含音乐性的小说。其中,伍尔夫向读者展示了诸如瓦格纳音乐戏剧《特里斯坦与伊索尔德》、贝多芬晚期钢琴奏鸣曲第111号作品等多种音乐元素,阐述了对“音乐”与“文学”两种不同艺术载体及内在情感张力的辩证思考。以其早期作品《远航》为文本基础,伍尔夫清晰表述了音乐对其本人及文学创作的持久影响。In her maiden work The Voyage Out(1915), Virginia Woolf tells the story of the adventure of the young pianist Rachel Vinrace, the central female protagonist, on her sea voyage on the Euphrosyne to South Africa. Woolf vividly depicts the awakening of Rachel’s female consciousness. However, this article proposes that to some extent, The Voyage Out is a novel full of explicit musical elements. In this novel, Woolf shares with her readers ample musical elements, such as the borrowing of the subtext from Richard Wagner’s music drama Tristan and Isolde and the choice of Ludwig van Beethoven’s Piano Sonata op.111. By this means, Woolf reveals her arduous efforts to think dialectically about “music” and “literature”, the two distinctive artistic mediums, and their emotional intensity. Based upon her first literary venture The Voyage Out, Woolf initiates her own voyage in elucidating the long-lasting influence of music on herself and her oeuvre.
