ABSTRACT

The Odyssey is one of the highest products of human creation of all times. In the book Mythos and Voice, Charles Underwood presents an innovative perspective on this work of art, discussing the development of the main characters by the light of psychological and anthropological theories. Then, he discusses the dialogical theories of ontogenetic development using the characters of Odyssey as specimen. I finally suggest that the Underwood’s insights about the characters of Odyssey can provide fruitful hints for the understanding of the identity enactment in contemporary societies, by revisiting the positioning process and the dialogical construction of identity.

摘要

该的奥德赛是人类创造的所有次最高的产品之一。在《神话与声音》一书中，查尔斯·安德伍德（Charles Underwood）提出了关于这种艺术作品的创新观点，并根据心理学和人类学理论讨论了主要人物的发展。然后，他以奥德赛的性格为样本，讨论了个体发育发展的对话理论。我最后建议，安德伍德对奥德赛人物的见解可以通过重新审视身份的定位过程和对话结构，为理解当代社会的身份制定提供有益的提示。
