摘要
小说《圣洁百合》中到处渗透着电影等现代科技的痕迹。在这个技术主宰的时代里,人在一定程度上都被工具化了。由此带来的信仰的缺失、社会关系的冷漠和家庭内部的裂痕,预示着前所未有的生存危机。厄普代克对此作出了深刻的伦理反思,辩证地对待技术理性这一问题。哈贝马斯的技术哲学理论能够为厄普代克小说中的社会交往行为的结果做出合理的解释:只有从他者的角度出发,在平等交往、真诚对话的基础上,才能达成"共识"。小说中克拉克最后的选择就是站在他者的位置上作出的道德判断。厄普代克的小说传达的正是社会的发展应该是技术理性与人文理性的辩证统一。技术与人文之间需要保持这样一种平衡。
There are traces of modern science and technology such as films everywhere in the fiction In the Beauty of the Lilies. In an age manipulated by technology, to a certain extent, man is instrumentalized. This brings about the loss of faith, the indifference of social relations, and the rifts within families, which anticipates the unprecedented living crises. Updike had an ethical retrospection on this, treating the issue of instrumental reason dialectically. Habermas' s theory of technological philosophy could make a rational explanation for the result of social communicative actions displayed in Updike's fiction: only when one starts from the other's angle, based on equal and sincere communications, could a'consensus' be reached. In the fiction, Clark's final choice is the moral judgment made from the position of the other. What Updike's fiction conveys is just that the development of the society should be the dialectical unification of instrumental reason and human rationality. Science and humanity need to keep such a kind of balance.
