摘要：刘宇昆的短篇小说《狩猎愉快》以蒸汽朋克美学重构中国狐妖传说，通过展现“狐狸精”“蒸汽”“法力”三大意象，从生态批评视角揭示了殖民现代性对自然与文化的双重暴力。本文试图结合深层生态学、生态女性主义、生态殖民主义等多种生态批评理论，多角度剖析小说文本对当今社会生态危机的隐喻，对经典科幻小说进行更为详细的现代生态诠释，以期对复杂的生态与社会问题治理有所启发。

Title: Hulijing, Steam and Magic: An Ecocritical Study on Good Hunting
Abstract: Ken Liu’s science fiction novel Good Hunting reimagines ancient Chinese hulijing mythology in a steampunk mode, demonstrating three core imageries—the hulijing, steam, and magic—to critique the dual violence of colonial modernity against nature and culture from an ecocritical perspective. This paper employs theories including deep ecology, ecofeminism, and ecological colonialism to analyze the text’s allegorical reflection of contemporary ecological crises, offering a detailed ecological reinterpretation of this classic speculative fiction to provide provoking thoughts about difficult ecological and social issues.
Keywords: Good Hunting; Ken Liu; Science fiction; Ecocriticism
