【摘要】：针对玛丽雪莱的著名小说《最后一个人》的现有研究主要集中于：政治隐喻，女性主义分析，人文主义反思以及生态保护这四个方面，，却忽略了对其情节与常用意象的深入探索。因此。本文意在建立一个新的视角来分析此小说文本并且深入了解小说与作者之间千丝万缕的联系。因此，为了更好研究此部小说，本文选择文中大量使用的水意象作为切入点，来分析出现约三百次的水意象对小说情节推动与人物塑造的作用。本文意在通过对意象以及水意象的系统研究，加深对《最后一个人》的理解并且分析玛丽雪莱与此部小说的内在联系。西方学术界对于意象概念的认知经历了从抽象到具体，从心理层面到艺术创造层面的过程。为了界定意象，本文通过概念溯源以及发展脉络的梳理，将意象界定为：非刻意的客观事物与主观意识的有机融合，“理性与感性”的复合体,表现了意象主体的审美态度和精神意向。文章接下来就水意象的认知以及作用进行了深入探究。传统意义上来说，水象征着净化与源头。然而随着海洋，航行，迷雾，风暴以及小溪等意向的运用日趋频繁，此类与水相关的名词形成了单独的一类：水意象。在《最后一个人》中，玛丽雪莱将海洋作为最主要的水意象，并将其扩展到具体自然元素中去。对于这些水意象的研究能够使读者深入了解文中人物的命运以及小说对作者人生的投射作用。同时，文章还具有一定的现实意义。文章中对疫情和洪水的描写也展现了作者对人类过度纷争索取所必然遭受惩罚的预言，对现世有一定的警示作用。
[Abstract]:The current research on Mary Shelley's famous novel the Last Man focuses on four aspects: political metaphor, feminist analysis, humanism reflection and ecological protection. But neglected to its plot and the common image thorough exploration. therefore The purpose of this paper is to establish a new perspective to analyze the novel text and to understand the inextricable relationship between the novel and the author. Therefore, in order to study the novel better, this paper chooses the water image, which is widely used in the text, as the starting point to analyze the effect of the water image appearing about 300 times on the plot promotion and character shaping of the novel. The purpose of this paper is to deepen the understanding of the Last Man through the systematic study of the image and the image of water, and to analyze the inner relationship between Mary Shelley and the novel. The cognition of image concept in western academic circles has experienced the process from abstract to concrete, from psychological level to artistic creation level. In order to define the image, this paper defines the image as the organic fusion of objective things and subjective consciousness, the complex of "reason and sensibility" through the tracing of the concept and the development of the thread of development. It shows the aesthetic attitude and spiritual intention of the image subject. Next, the paper makes a deep research on the cognition and function of water image. Traditionally, water symbolizes purification and source. However, with the increasing use of sea, navigation, fog, storms and streams, these terms related to water form a separate category: water imagery. In the Last Man, Mary Shelley uses the sea as the primary water image and extends it to specific natural elements. The study of these water images can help readers to understand the fate of the characters in the text and the effect of the novel on the author's life. At the same time, the article also has certain practical significance. The description of the epidemic situation and flood also shows the author's prophecy of the punishment for the excessive claim of human beings, which is a warning to the present world.
