摘　　要：尼日利亚作家钦努阿·阿契贝的小说《这个世界土崩瓦解了》通过空间与记忆的关系,展示了殖民主义如何改变伊博族的传统社会景观和个人身份认同,揭示了文化冲突的复杂性和悲剧性。乌姆奥菲亚代表了伊博族原始的生活方式和社会组织形式,承载着个人和集体的记忆;凶森林成为传统信仰与外来宗教碰撞的地方;教堂、法庭和政府等新机构逐渐侵蚀和取代原有的社会结构。年轻一代更容易接受新文化,而老一代则坚持传统,导致代际冲突和社会分裂。奥贡喀沃试图通过破坏教堂来恢复传统秩序,但最终被殖民者逮捕并自杀。他的悲剧象征着传统社会在殖民压迫下的瓦解和失落。Things Fall Apart,a novel of Nigerian writer Chinua Achebe,explores how colonialism alters the traditional social landscape and personal identity of the Igbo people through the relationship between space and memory,revealing the complexity and tragedy of cultural conflicts.Umuofia represents the original way of life and social organization of the Igbo,carrying personal and collective memories;the evil forest becomes the place where traditional beliefs collide with foreign religions;new institutions such as churches,courts,and governments gradually erode and replace the existing social structures.The younger generation is more receptive to new cultures,while the older generation insists on tradition,which leads to generational conflicts and social fragmentation.Okonkwo attempts to restore traditional order by destroying the church,but is ultimately arrested by the colonizers and commits suicide.His tragedy symbolizes the disintegration and loss of traditional society under colonial oppression.
