: The concept of nature and its relationship to man is crucial in ecocriticism, and has been much debated during the whole existence of the field. In an overview of the short history of ecocriticism, Lawrence Buell (2011) shows how the view on nature has developed since the beginning of ecocriticism in the early 1990s. During this period, nature has been seen as both friend and foe to man, it has been considered as a place for retreat for the individual but also the subject of human reshaping. It has evolved from the wilder ness of thinly populated remote areas that have to be preserved to urban and industrial landscapes which have to be adapted to man. It has been seen as a counterpart of man, but also as an integral part of man. In extreme views, it has even been suggested that nature as a concept is irrelevant. Timothy Morton argues for instance that the term “nature” is so polyvalent and baggage-ridden a term that it should be banished from the lexicon. In this paper, I will analyze three different views on the relationship between man and nature in three different media types. All the cases are dramatic representations of this complicated relationship. The first cases, representing the media type of literature, are also the earliest ones, and consist of two works by Swiss author his La grande dans la montagne ( Terror on the Mountain ) from 1927 and his short story “Scène dans la forèt” from 1945. In these examples, nature appears as a God who punishes man for to tame it. The second example is much more recent, and comes from the media type of live action film. nature Formal devices, in particular concerning narration, will be at the center of my interest, so narratology will be the main analytical tool. Besides narratology, the field of intermediality will inform my analytical approach, not only because the three examples come from three different media types, but since narration itself will be addressed as an intermedial feature.
自然及其与人的关系的概念在生态批评中是至关重要的,并且在该领域的整个存在期间一直有很多争论。在对生态批评短暂历史的概述中,劳伦斯·布尔(2011)展示了自20世纪90年代初生态批评开始以来,自然观是如何发展的。在这一时期,自然被视为人类的朋友和敌人,它被认为是个人的隐居之地,也是人类重塑的主题。它已经从必须保护的人烟稀少的偏远地区的荒野演变为必须适应人类的城市和工业景观。它被视为人类的对应物,但也被视为人类不可分割的一部分。在极端的观点中,甚至有人认为自然作为一个概念是不相关的。例如,蒂莫西·莫顿(Timothy Morton)认为,“自然”(nature)一词具有如此多的含义,而且承载了太多的包袱,因此应该从词典中删除。在本文中,我将分析三种不同媒体类型对人与自然关系的三种不同观点。所有这些案例都是这种复杂关系的生动表现。第一批案例代表了媒介文学类型,也是最早的案例,由瑞士作家1927年的《La grande dans La montagne》和1945年的短篇小说《sc dans La for》两部作品组成。在这些例子中,自然以上帝的形象出现,惩罚驯服它的人。第二个例子是最近的,来自真人电影的媒体类型。形式手段,特别是关于叙述的,将是我的兴趣中心,所以叙事学将是主要的分析工具。除了叙事学之外,我的分析方法还将涉及中介领域,不仅因为这三个例子来自三种不同的媒体类型,而且因为叙事本身也将作为一种中介特征来处理。
