摘　　要：世界主义、记忆是探讨德里克·沃尔科特基于身份、经历和思想创作的长篇叙事诗《奥麦罗斯》主题的重要视角。诗人不仅关注到加勒比的“失忆症”,还从去殖民性揭示了殖民者的资源掠夺、大屠杀,殖民者阐释记忆的霸权,殖民地人民对现代性的盲目崇拜是失忆的原因。为了唤起消逝的记忆,他以梦境归乡的文学形式再现返回非洲运动,提出同幸存者对话、沉浸式艺术、宗教这三种重访过去的路径。最终,他将记忆视为“联结的纽带”,从伦理道德、文化艺术的维度探讨了不同族群共享相似的记忆,实现“不同而和,美美与共”的世界主义理想的可能。Cosmopolitanism and memory are important perspectives for exploring the themes of Omeros,a long narrative poem based on Derek Walcott's identity,experiences,and thoughts.Walcott not only pays attention to the“amnesia”in the Caribbean,but also reveals,through decoloniality,that the colonizers'plundering of resources and massacres,the hegemony of the colonizers'interpretation of memory,and the colonial people's blind worship of modernity are causes of the Caribbean people's amnesia.In order to revive faded memories,Walcott uses the literary form of homecoming through dreams to represent the Back-to-Africa Movement,and proposes three paths to revisit the past,i.e.,dialogue with survivors,immersive arts,and religions.Ultimately,he regards memory as a bond and explores the possibility of different ethnic groups sharing similar memories in order to realize the open and inclusive cosmopolitan ideal from the perspectives of ethics and morality as well as culture and the arts.
