摘　　要：《北欧纪行》(1796)是英国作家玛丽·沃斯通克拉夫特的最后一部重要作品,是她在法国大革命背景下的代表作。本文着眼于这部旅行札记对社会底层生活以及平民政治发展状况的关注,从三个层面剖析当中的纪实困境:空间体验、情感流动与线性历史,以揭示文本中的个体经验、社会革新焦虑与纪实伦理如何在多重压力之下始终不断调和的状况。作家的写作困境从更广泛意义上体现了当时英国激进思潮的支持者们既肯定平民力量、渴望推行变革,又担忧社会秩序受到社会底层反抗冲击的矛盾心态。分析该文本的纪实推敲有助于观察18世纪后期英国社会对事实与正义二者之间关系的认识,对于探讨非虚构作品中的叙事伦理也具有价值。Letters Written During a Short Residence in Sweden,Norway,and Denmark is the last well-known work of Mary Wollstonecraft,a travel book cast in the form of letters,set against the French Revolution.Focusing on her concerns with the lower class and the prospect of plebian politics,this paper analyzes the dilemma of negotiating objectivity in this text from three aspects,the experiences of space,the communication of emotion and the remodeling of linear history.It is intended to reveal how the text has been reconciliating personal experience,the anxiety of social reform and the ethics of being objective,under multiple pressures.The narrative conflicts embody more than individual dilemma of writing,but the predicaments of wider radical supporters in Britain.They stuck between the aspiration for plebian involvement in social reform and the fear of possible social disorder.This investigation of objectivity can shed light on the evolving attitude towards fact and justice in the social transformation of 18th century Britain,as well as the narrative ethics in non-fiction.
