从“我”到“我们”——论《愤怒的葡萄》的主题
发布时间:2020-12-16 20:03
约翰·斯坦贝克是美国20世纪著名的现实主义小说家。作为诺贝尔文学奖得主,斯坦贝克的声誉主要是和他1939年发表的《愤怒的葡萄》联系在一起的。《愤怒的葡萄》是斯坦贝克最著名的小说,也是其最成功的一部作品,适时反映了美国20世纪30年代大萧条时期的社会状况,揭露了大萧条影响下社会的黑暗和不公。 《愤怒的葡萄》刻画了西迁的广大农民中的典型一户乔德一家,集中探讨了凯西和乔德一家如何在不断恶化的物质条件下获得心灵的教育,最终实现从“我”到“我们”的转变。这种转变最集中、最全面地体现在凯西、汤姆和母亲身上。凯西的思想是乔德一家的行动指南,正是在他的影响下汤姆和母亲先后接受了那种超越家庭责任的观念,接受了凯西有关普遍的兄弟之情的精神。为了揭示小说的这一主题,即从“我”到“我们”,斯坦贝克大量运用了象征手法,小说结尾与标题尤其具有象征意义。此外,斯坦贝克还采用了新闻体的写作手法,大量运用了中间章节,以全景手法揭示了乔德一家的遭遇的典型性与普遍性。斯坦贝克创作了一部以乔德一家为代表的千百万丧失土地的农民的西迁史,它也是一部心灵教育史,阐释了大萧条时期这些移民从“我”到“我们”的阶级意识的转变。
