摘　　要：《古德的鱼书》是澳大利亚当代著名作家理查德·弗拉纳根的巅峰之作。小说写回19世纪澳大利亚早期殖民历史,通过一名英国流放犯对官方档案的深入挖掘以及对视觉档案的巧妙利用,揭露殖民话语对历史真相的刻意歪曲,挑战当下普遍存在的文化健忘症。弗拉纳根通过对档案建构过程的艺术化处理,一方面展现出档案的记忆属性以及权力话语对档案记忆的渗透,另一方面建立起关于塔斯马尼亚早期流放历史的另类档案,填补官方档案中“遗漏”的空白部分。《古德的鱼书》提供了一种多模态的记忆形式,彰显出弗拉纳根对正史的颠覆、对话语的解构以及对文明的讽刺,目的在于审视澳大利亚被遮蔽的流放历史以及流放犯群体的身份认同困境。Gould's Book of Fish is a classic by contemporary Australian writer Richard Flanagan. Revisiting the early colonial history of 19th Australia, the novel tells the story of a British convict who digs deep into the official archives and makes use of the visual archives of the colony as a means of exposing the deliberate distortion of historical truths by colonial discourse, thus challenging the cultural amnesia that is so prevalent today. Flanagan's artistic treatment of the archiving process reveals the memory properties of archives and the role of power in archival memories on the one hand, and builds an alternative archive of the convict transportation to Tasmania on the other, filling in the “missing” gaps in the official archives. Gould's Book of Fish provides a multi-modal memory network, highlighting Flanagan's subversion of the official history, deconstruction of colonial discourse, and satire of civilization, with the aim of examining the obscured history of convict exile in Australia and the identity dilemma of the convict community.
