作品特点:

描写社会和人性的阴暗面是霍桑作品的突出特点, 这与加尔文教关于人的“原罪”和“内在堕落”的 理论的影响是分不开的。 霍桑是心理小说的开创者,擅长剖析人的“内心”。 他着重探讨道德和罪恶的问题,主张通过善行和自 忏来洗刷罪恶、净化心灵,从而得到拯救。 然而霍桑并非全写黑暗,他在揭露社会罪恶和人的 劣根性的同时,对许多善良的主人公寄予极大的同 情。

纳撒尼尔·霍桑(NathanielHawthorne)的《通天铁路》

纳撒尼尔·霍桑(NathanielHawthorne)的《通天铁路》

纳撒尼尔•霍桑(Nathaniel Hawthorne)的《通天铁路》这篇附加的小故事是纳撒尼尔•霍桑于1852年在一本名为《雪景和其他故事新编》中发表的。

霍桑,19世纪最伟大的美国作家,以一部经典的英语散文集约翰.班扬John Bunyan 的《天路历程》The Pilgrim’s Progress中的一篇的形式写了《通天铁路》。

约翰.班扬(1628-1688)是一名英国清教徒传教士和作家。

他写了《天路历程》中大部分的文章,但因为在清教徒革命和奥利弗.克伦威尔(Oliver Cromwell)统治结束后随之而来的斯图亚特王朝的复辟时期拒绝使自己顺应官方的英国国教而被投入监狱。

《天路历程》是一部精心制作的宗教寓言。

在寓言中,主角,基督徒,抛弃了他在毁灭之城的生活开始了一段漫长、艰辛的旅途,决心到达天国之城。

他徒步旅行,肩上背负着重担(象征着原罪)。

他穿越了失望沼泽,经由柴门逃离了毁灭之城,经受了许多偏离通往天国之城的正确路线、动摇他信念的诱惑。

陪伴着基督徒的旅途,一位老于世故的先生试图劝阻他,而且由于福音传道者和广心先生的严厉干预,他数次获得了拯救。

他们指引迷茫的基督徒回到通往天国城的道路。

他克服了山峰高耸的困难挑战,用手中的剑打败了残暴的亚玻伦(Apollyon)(精神怀疑的恶魔),穿越了死亡阴影的峡谷,然后在空虚之城停留了一段时间。

在那里基督徒参观了集市和空虚集市的商业中心(以17世纪英格兰的大型夏季商业集市为模型),而那里也有一个同伴。

信徒,见证了一个殉教者的结局。

最终,基督徒成功地避开了托非特(地狱)之火,到达了以色列的土地。

在他渡过死亡河,然后进入天国城之前,这是一个令人愉快的休憩之地。

霍桑的叙事形式代表了一种更新的19世纪中期受班扬影响的美国视角和流行故事。

通天铁路The Celestial Railroad不久前,穿过梦幻的大门,我访问了世界驰名的“灭亡城”所在地,得知最近,一些热心公益的居民出力,在这座人口稠密兴旺发达的城市与“天城”之间,修筑了一条铁路,遂兴致大发。

红字美国作家纳撒尼尔霍桑的作品揭示社会对道德的束缚

红字美国作家纳撒尼尔霍桑的作品揭示社会对道德的束缚纳撒尼尔·霍桑(Nathaniel Hawthorne)是19世纪美国最重要的作家之一。

他的作品以其深刻揭示社会对道德的束缚而闻名。

通过对社会和人性的观察,霍桑用红字(Scarlet Letter)来象征着道德的束缚和社会规则的影响。

本文将探讨霍桑的作品以及他如何揭示社会对道德的束缚。

霍桑是一个独特的作家,他以圣经故事和宗教信仰为主题,通过深入分析人性的弱点和道德的限制,展示了人们内心的痛苦和社会道德规范的不公正。

他的作品《红字》正是其中的代表之一。

《红字》讲述了一个女人哈嘉·毕晓普(Hester Prynne)因出轨被判处戴上代表她罪恶的红字“A”,并受到社会的唾弃。

这个红字成为了对社会道德束缚的象征,哈嘉的身份也因此被限制和定义。

她被迫与罪恶相伴,承受着自责和社会压力。

通过这个故事,霍桑揭示了社会如何通过道德规范来束缚个体。

在哈嘉被判罪的过程中,可以看到社会对于道德的严苛要求和对罪恶的惩罚。

这种束缚不仅体现在个人的心理上,还反映在社会对哈嘉的监视和排斥上。

这种社会道德的影响让人们沉浸在自我审判和内疚之中,无法自由地追求自己的幸福。

除了展示道德束缚对个人的影响外,霍桑还通过哈嘉和她的爱人艾瑞(Arthur Dimmesdale)之间的关系,揭示了社会对于性与爱的约束。

艾瑞是哈嘉的情人,他隐藏了他们之间的关系,并在社会中维持着高尚的形象。

艾瑞内心的痛苦和对道德束缚的恐惧,使他在作品中成为一个充满矛盾的角色。

霍桑揭示了社会对性欲和爱情的约束,使得人们无法真实地表达自己的感情。

社会对道德的过度关注,使得个体的情感被压抑和扭曲。

这种道德束缚对个体的生活造成了巨大的影响,使得他们陷入痛苦和迷茫之中。

霍桑的作品通过红字的象征意义,揭示了社会对道德的束缚。

他通过对人性和社会现实的刻画,表达了对过度道德束缚的担忧和批判。

In 1839,Hawthorne worked at the Boston Customs for more than two years, then entered the Brook Farm, touching transcendentalism, and met the representative of transcendentalism thought Emerson and Thoreau and others.Since then, Hawthorne went to Salem Customs office, Salem customs life for his creation of Scarlet Letter has a direct impact, The Scarlet Letter published his solid position in the American literary world, butalso to the future with a huge influences.Hawthorne was evaluated as a bystander of life,and this attitude of life determines his interest and insight in his inner and psychological activities. He was deeply influenced by the original sin thought, and the original sin was passed on from generation to generation, and the people were guided by good deedsto purify the evil and purify the mind.His masterpieces include the novel The Scarlet Letter, Hexagon Building, short story collectionrepeat the story again, ancient moss, snow shadow and so on. The Scarlet Letter has become the worldsliterary classics, Henry James, Ellen Poe, Herman Melville and other literary masters are deeply affected.纳撒尼尔霍桑人物经历HeresyThe direct influence on Hawthornes creativethinking is his understanding of family history and religion. Hawthornes ancestors from the England region of the family, generations are devout Calvin believers. The two generations of ancestors were the dignitaries of the Massachusetts political and religious unity. One is the first speaker of the Massachusetts Colonial Parliament, named William Hassan, notorious for participating in the persecution of the Whigs. The other is his uncle, named John Hassan, served as alocal judge. In 1692, in the town of Salem, Massachusetts took place in the history of the famous deceit. At that time the town of Salem popular with a similar epilepsy infectious diseases, it was falsely accused of this Department of witch trouble. In some Western countries there is a traditional idea that thewitch is the companion of the devil Satan, who have received a supernatural power from Satan, who specializes in the spread of diseases and the killing of babies and so on. The town of Salem is the place where the Calvinist forces are strong, and the Calvin sects have struggled with the Whigs to compete for religious power in order to eliminate the heresy. The case involved a wide range, more than 200 people were arrested, 150 people were imprisoned, more than 10 people were hanged, in fact, this is a religious persecution, many of the victims were innocent residents. Hawthornes uncle, John, acted as a judge in the event and was known for his religious fanaticalness and cruelty.Hawthornes understanding of the history of the whole family, especially his study of the ancestors of the 17th century from England to the North American colonial continent and later fortune research and research made him a more comprehensive understanding of the familys development history and Social status of the New England region in the 19th century. At thattime the society was at the beginning of the rapid development of the capitalist economy, and the social structure had undergone major changes and adjustments. In his view, the progress of technology and the use of the machine not only can not improve the moral character of society, but people into a deeper sin whirlpool, a evil wizard. For which he was in front of what happened to be more do not understand. He had come into contact with transcendentalism and had participated in the brooks of the transgressors, but he looked at the activities of Emerson and others with indifference, and even opposed it. Hawthorne was not interested in any social reform program, and even cautious about the major problems of American society at that time. His conservative attitude and the lack of understanding of society are reflected in his deep-rooted Puritan religious consciousness. The intense religious factional struggle in the society and the moral values involved in this struggle had had a significant impact on Hawthornes work. And in many of his works, Hawthorne directly or indirectly attackedthe Galvin religion against the religious fanaticism and the destruction of human religious precepts. Butin the depths of his thought still with a strong religious concept of good and evil to see the world,he can not understand, due to the development of capitalism caused by the new social contradictions united into an abstract evil.In his view, all social problems, thecontradictions between people, the phenomenon of crime and so on are not the root of social material life,but because of the worlds inherent evil caused. Thisis the influence of the idea of original sin and the inner fall in the doctrine of Calvinism on Hawthornes thought. According to Hawthornes point of view, if you want to solve all social problems need to start from the evil, must be from the internal mining. Therefore, in his view, all abstract, mysterious evil are theroot cause of social problems.Family influenceIn Hawthornes family, two ancestors are important administrative officials in the Massachusetts colonies.Nathaniel Hawthornes first generation of ancestors William Hawthorne came from England in 1963 to Massachusetts, in this early colony, William Hawthorne is a prominent figure.Hawthorne disagreed with the behavior of his ancestors, the atrocities committed by his ancestors, was so ashamed of Hawthornes understanding of religion than the average person, and he hated his ancestral practice. The second generation of ancestors John Hawthorne was involved in the trial of the 1692 statement of the messy Salem deceit, which is one of the three judges, Hawthorne that the behavior of ancestors is a sin, a shame , This event to the young Hawthorne left a deep scars, Hawthorne on his ancestral behavior felt deep self-blame, this remorse so that he in his last name Hawthorne added a w To become FHawthorne to show that he is different from the sinful ancestors.Humanistic influence1825 - 1837, spent 12 years in his hometown had a significant impact on Hawthorne becoming a writer. Inhis hometown, Hawthorne was keen to explore thehistory of his hometown. He had read every book in the local library, and he was familiar with the ancient history of the town of Salem, especially the witchcraft. He studied the historical literature about England and engaged in novel creation. Most of his works are based on the brutal religious domination of the colonial period as the background, describing the peoples spiritual world, ideological contradictions and religious oppression under the tragic experience.Hawthorne saw the religious fanaticism and religious doctrine to bring the impact of people, he saw the religious destruction of human nature. In this area of Massachusetts, religion is very closely linked to peoples lives, and religion permeates all aspects of life, and religion is even equivalent to law, with supreme authority and effect, but on the other hand, the harsh rule of Puritanism and fanatical Religious worship is to some extent a cruel trampling of human dignity.Salem is a place where the Calvin Puritan atmosphere is very strong, because here is relatively backward, science is not developed, so the local peoples ignorance, this place has a lot of magical folklore and fairy tales, while people advocate Hypnosis, witchcraft activities spread here, the introduction of Calvin Puritanism in North America had a great impact on Hawthorne, it greatly affected the way Hawthorne recognized the world.Hawthornes era of life Although the Puritan thought is no longer the leading force of New England, but Puritanism on the American life and ideological influence is far-reaching, Hawthornes character and Puritanism thought milk blend, puritanism thought His way of thinking and the attitude of the problem, inevitably make Hawthorne from the perspective of Puritanism to observe people and the world, Hawthorne has a deep thinking and understanding of Puritanism, he was some active in Puritan Of the factors are positive attitude, such as the early American Puritans who have the pioneering spirit, perseverance of thespirit, which is in the body of Hester Prynne is reflected. But on the other hand, the asceticism in Puritanism and the oppression of Puritanism against humanity are what the authors do not agree with and criticize. From the historical understanding of the United States, Hawthorne can profoundly grasp the Puritanisms history of the United States , But therule and norms of Yan Xun can in some way make people lose their original nature, and Hawthorne is well versed in the influence of Puritanism on people, and The Puritanism has a clear understanding and thinking, although the Puritan rule is no longer strict, but some eternal topics such as the relationship between man and God and the relationship between man and religion, human nature in the good and evil andpeoples morality Criteria are the subject of concern and concern.Hawthornes life is the American Renaissance, the19th century European romantic thoughts across the sea, came to North America this land, coupled with theNorth American colonial puritanism thought strong,romantic and local clear The combination ofdoctrinalism creates a transcendentalist philosophythat has had a significant impact on the later US. Transcendentalism is an important ideological movement in the United States. The period of Americanliterature in the transcendentalism is called the American Renaissance. Transcendentalism is an ideological and cultural liberation movement with religious colors. Literature and culture have had a significant impact, with profound philosophicalthinking as the background, emphasizing the supreme spirit of the spirit and the absolute perception ofthe traditional religion to refute, the representative of Ralph Waldo Emerson (Ralph FWaldo FEmerson), Henry Davav Thoreau.Before and after 1841, the wave of transcendentalism swept through Boston and its neighboring areas, and Hawthorne was influenced by transcendentalism. Transcendentalism believed that there was an ideal transcendentalist entity in the universe, Experience, people can be intuition to grasp,people can understand the truth through intuition, within a certain range of people is God, they are a new round of religious reflection and criticism, they abandon the Calvin sect God as the center Point of view, against rationality, advocating intuition, to promote the humanistic spirit, advocate individual liberation, emphasizing the value of individuals, this trend on the society at that time had a great impact, especially for Europes dominant theological ideas, transcendentalism The liberation of American ideology and culture, but also affected the American literature, an indispensable part of American literature.Although Hawthorne is not transcendentalist fanatical followers, but his relationship with Emerson and Thoreau are very close, in their daily lives,their contacts are pleasant.Creation periodIn 1837, Hawthornes first short story collection repeat the story again to bring him some fame.After 1845, Hawthorne entered the creation of the mature period, in 1846 launched the second short storyancient house moss, but the book only to bring him a modest income.

霍桑作品鉴赏读后感

霍桑作品鉴赏读后感

霍桑作品鉴赏读后感霍桑(Nathaniel Hawthorne)是美国文学史上备受赞誉的作家之一,他以独特的写作风格和深刻的思想触动了许多读者的心灵。

在阅读了霍桑的作品之后,我深受震撼和思考。

本文将围绕着霍桑作品的主题、风格和情感表达进行鉴赏,并分享我的个人读后感受。

霍桑作品的主题多样而深刻,他的作品经常探讨人性的黑暗面以及罪恶的内在矛盾。

《红字》作为霍桑最重要的作品之一,给我留下了深刻的印象。

故事描述了一个与众不同的女子被迫佩戴一个鲜红的字母“A”,承受着社会的指责和压力。

通过这个形象的象征,霍桑揭示了人性中婚外情、罪恶和内疚的存在。

他通过角色的刻画和情节的发展,深入揭示了社会对个体的压迫,以及人性自身的复杂性。

这种主题的揭示使我对人性的探讨和内心世界的思考更加深入。

此外,霍桑的作品也充满了浓厚的哲学和道德思考。

在《无赖之徒的坟墓》中,他描绘了一个人频繁变化身份的男子,遭受着自我认同和道德纠葛的折磨。

这个故事引发了我对“自我”和“真实”的思考。

霍桑在作品中巧妙地运用反转和暗示,让读者反思自身认知和道德观念。

他的作品常常令我感到困惑和思考,思考人性的本质和真实的定义。

除了主题的深度,霍桑作品的文学风格也独具特色。

他善于运用象征手法,通过物象的转化来展示故事中深层的意义。

例如在《黑带》中,他将一条黑带作为主线,通过黑带的象征意义来传达出世俗压力和矛盾的观念。

这种象征主义的表达方式,使作品更加丰富和引人入胜。

此外,霍桑的作品也充满了细腻的情感表达。

他善于通过细腻的描写和情绪的把握来传达角色的情感和心理状态。

在《约翰•哈桑的传记》中,他通过对主人公内心世界的细腻描写,使读者更加真实地感受到主人公的痛苦和挣扎。

这种情感的表达令人感受到深深的共鸣和共情,使作品充满了温情和力量。

总的来说,霍桑的作品给我留下了深刻的印象。

他通过对人性的探索和罪恶的揭示,引发了我对生活和道德的思考。

他的作品风格独特,文笔流畅,情感真挚。
