The Chinese Images in <i>Ivan</i>’<i>s Daughter</i>, <i>Ivan</i>’<i>s Mother</i>

本文基于比较文学形象学，分析俄罗斯作家瓦・拉斯普京小说《伊万的女儿，伊万的母亲》里的中国形象。研究主要聚焦三个方面：一是作品中的中国国家形象；二是作品中的中国人的形象；三是作品中的中国物品的形象，通过书中的具体描写总结它们的特点。在分析这些形象形成的原因时，论文从两个角度展开。首先，结合社会集体想象物理论，看这些形象如何受到社会整体认知的影响；其次，从中俄政治、经济、文化交流的大背景出发，研究作者对本国的态度和两国之间的互动如何影响了这些异国形象的呈现。研究发现，这些形象既体现了俄罗斯人对中国的一些固有认知，也反映出中俄文化交流中存在的理解偏差，同时也展现了两国文化相互交融的趋势，为今后进一步推动中俄文化交流提供了参考。Based on the imagology of comparative literature, this paper analyzes the Chinese image in Ivan’s Daughter, Ivan’s Mother by Russian writer Valentin Rasputin. The study focuses on three aspects: first, the image of China as a country in the work; second, the image of Chinese people in the work; and third, the image of Chinese objects in the work, summarizing their characteristics through specific descriptions in the book. When analyzing the reasons for the formation of these images, the paper proceeds from two perspectives: first, combining the theory of social collective imagination, to examine how these images are influenced by the overall social cognition; second, starting from the background of Sino-Russian political, economic and cultural exchanges, to study how the author’s attitude towards his own country and the interactions between the two countries affect the presentation of these foreign images. The study finds that these images not only reflect some inherent perceptions of China by Russians, but also reveal the misunderstandings in Sino-Russian cultural exchanges, while demonstrating the trend of mutual integration between the two cultures, thus providing a reference for further promoting Sino-Russian cultural exchanges in the future.
