摘要
本文探討福克納三部長篇小說的敍事模式。第一節為引言，描述福克納小說的「多聲部」(polyphony) 特徵。

第二節分析《喧囂與忿怒》(The Sound and the Fury) 的離心形空間結構。每位獨白者力圖逃離牢困他們的中心事件：凱蒂 (Caddy) 的「不貞」意味了傳統的喪失。

第三節分析《彌留之際》(As I Lay Dying) 中「旅途」母題的線性時間結構。二條平行的敍事線索——居爾 (Jewel) 的「默默行動」與逹爾 (Darl) 的「無止言談」——構成了小說發展的動力。

第四節分析《押沙龍，押沙龍！》(Absalom, Absalom!) 中空間與時間合為一體的向心形結構。二位敍事者力圖突破他人的言語空間，據他人的故事為己有。整部小說以逆時間順序而展開。第五節為結論，探討福克納的「聲音」與空間、時間、「真實」等概念的關係。

Abstract
This paper examines the patterning of voices in three of William Faulkner’s novels. The first section describes the prominence of “polyphony” in Faulkner’s works. The second section analyses the centrifugal spatial construction of The Sound and the Fury within which the patterning of voices is such that all are all fleeing from a central point: Caddy’s immorality which signifies a lapse in tradition. The third section analyses the linear time construction of the mother’s journey in As I Lay Dying. There are two parallel narrative lines: Jewel’s “silent doing” and Darl’s “speaking” which together help drive the plot of the novel. The fourth section analyses the patterning of voices in Absalom, Absalom! on both temporal and spatial axes, with a centripetal movement towards the core of events. The two narrators strive to break into the other’s language space and in turn appropriate the story. The entire novel unfolds non-chronologically. The fifth section concludes by re-examining the patterns of voices in Faulkner’s three novels and their relationship to the concepts of space, time and truth.
