摘　　要：大卫·增本是当代美国农业生态作家。在他的“桃树挽歌”系列作品中,生态怀旧书写一反“怀旧”一词在西方语境中的消极意味,反而展现出积极的情感力量,彰显了反思性、批判性和未来性。本文从增本的味觉生态怀旧入手,解析资本主义经济理性、农业寡头垄断、消费者的生态认知缺位和消费选择不当,如何共同导致了生物多样性、复杂性和共生等生态价值的丧失。在此基础上,探究增本如何运用生态怀旧书写激发“读者—消费者”的“具身模拟”以介入其生态认知,并使其将怀旧情感转化为亲生态的道德行为,投身于可持续食物系统的塑造。David Mas Masumoto is one of the representatives of the agrarian narrative in contemporary American eco-literature.The eco-nostalgia he displays in the"Epitaph for a Peach"series is quite different from the negative and pathological im-pression of nostalgia that has long prevailed in the West.It is a reflective,critical,and future-oriented positive emotional force.Beginning with Masumoto's taste eco-nostalgia,this article analyzes how economic reason and oligopoly in agriculture,as well as the lack of consumer eco-consciousness and inappropriate choices in food consumption,have led to the loss of biological diversity,complexity,and symbiosis.Moreover,the article ex-amines how Masumoto employs eco-nostalgia to trigger an"embodied simulation"of the reader-consumer,thereby influencing their ecological cognition,and then transforms this powerful emotion into morality and a commitment to shaping a sustainable food system.
