Abstract: The novel Indigo of Austrian author Clemens J. Setz revolves around children with the illness “Indigo” in an isolation center. From the perspective of social exclusion， people isolate， discipline， stigmatize and transfer sick children out of selfdefense and egoism in front of others. This causes social incompetence， loss of voice and autonomy and cognitive and emotional disfunction of the children. The novel combines illness manifestation and imagination， reveals the twosided nature of human psyche and social rules and the universality of social exclusion， expresses the authors humanitarian stance and reflection on European civilization and provides a unique aesthetic experience and perspective to explore social realities.

摘要： 奥地利作家克莱门斯·J.塞茨的代表作《英迪格》讲述患有英迪格疾病儿童的隔离经历。从社会排斥视角看，人们出于自卫与利己本能，污名化、隔离、规训与转移患病儿童，导致后者交际无能，话语权与自主权丧失，认知与情感受挫。小说结合疾病表现与疾病想象，隐喻多面的心理与社会规则，揭示社会排斥的普遍性，表达作家的人道主义立场与对欧洲文明的反思，带给读者独特的审美体验与思考社会问题的视角。
