【摘要】：作为二十世纪美国文学史上最杰出的作家之一,约翰·斯坦贝克以其独特的创作技巧,对广大被压迫者的同情以及对于人类本性的深刻洞察而闻名。其巅峰之作《愤怒的葡萄》以约德一家为代表,描述了俄克拉荷马州的农民由于严重的干旱以及银行家的残酷压迫,被迫迁移到加利福尼亚州的艰难旅程。作为一部真实反映二十世纪三十年代经济大萧条时期美国劳动人民悲惨境遇的小说,《愤怒的葡萄》对当时的美国社会产生了巨大的影响,它促使美国人民重新审视自己的历史并认真思考自己在经济大萧条时期的处境。除了现实意义之外,《愤怒的葡萄》也具有很高的艺术价值,其中象征手法的运用作为一个突出特征贯穿整部小说。因此,本文试图从象征主义角度对《愤怒的葡萄》进行系统和深入的解读。首先,本文简要介绍了约翰·斯坦贝克的生平及其作品并对《愤怒的葡萄》这部小说的历史背景及主要内容进行概述。然后,本文指出了该研究的目的、意义及方法。接着,本文总体回顾了国内外关于这部小说的研究现状并介绍了本研究的理论基础—有关象征及象征主义的理论。之后,本文具体分析了《愤怒的葡萄》中所运用的景物象征、场景象征和人物象征以及它们在传达小说主题中的重要意义。本文指出移民工人从个人到集体,从麻木、消极到觉悟、反抗的精神转变之旅是小说所要突出的主题。最后,本文得出结论,在《愤怒的葡萄》这部小说中,象征手法的运用充满了高超的艺术价值,同时它在深化主题中也起到了重要的作用。总体来说,通过运用各种极具深层含义的景物象征、场景象征以及人物象征,移民工人的精神转变之旅这一主题得到了突出和强调,进而也使得该小说的意义更加深刻,影响更加持久。
[Abstract]:John Steinbeck, one of the most outstanding writers in American literary history in the 20th century, is famous for his unique creative skills, sympathy for the oppressed and deep insight into human nature. At its peak, the Grapes of Wrath, represented by the Yordes, describe the difficult journey of Oklahoma farmers forced to migrate to California due to severe drought and the brutal oppression of bankers. As a true reflection of the tragic plight of the American working people during the Great Depression of the 1930s, the Grapes of Wrath had a tremendous impact on American society at that time. It prompted Americans to rethink their history and reflect on their situation during the Great Depression. Besides the practical significance, the Grapes of Wrath is also of high artistic value, in which symbolism is used as a prominent feature throughout the novel. Therefore, this paper tries to analyze the Grapes of Wrath systematically and deeply from the perspective of symbolism. First, this paper briefly introduces John Steinbeck's life and his works, and summarizes the historical background and main contents of the novel Grapes of Wrath. Then, this paper points out the purpose, significance and method of this research. Then, this paper reviews the domestic and international research status of this novel and introduces the theoretical basis of this study-symbolism and symbolism theory. After that, this paper analyzes the scene symbol, scene symbol and character symbol used in the Grapes of Wrath and their significance in conveying the theme of the novel. This paper points out that the spiritual transformation of migrant workers from individual to collective, from numbness, negativity to consciousness and resistance is the main theme of the novel. Finally, the paper concludes that the use of symbolism in the novel Grapes of Wrath is full of superb artistic value and plays an important role in deepening the theme. In general, the theme of the spiritual transition of migrant workers has been highlighted and emphasized by the use of a variety of scene symbols, scene symbols and character symbols with very deep meanings, which in turn makes the novel more profound. The impact is more lasting.
