【摘要】：约翰·斯坦贝克是二十世纪美国最重要的作家之一,于1962年获得诺贝尔文学奖。斯坦贝克是位高产作家,一生笔耕不辍,完成了十多部小说,其作品主题丰富,涉及战争、政治、社会、人性等人类普遍关注的问题,为各国学者所广泛关注并研究。本文试图从圣经原型角度对斯坦贝克晚期作品《伊甸之东》的主题进行分析,以圣经中偏爱与嫉妒、背叛与原谅以及善与恶的主题与这部小说主题的联系为基点,深入挖掘这部小说的艺术价值,并丰富国内对斯坦贝克作品中圣经元素的研究。本文由导论、正文和结论三部分组成。主要内容如下：第一部分是导论,简介斯坦贝克以及《伊甸之东》,综述《伊甸之东》的国内外研究现状,简介原型理论以及圣经原型理论,并分析斯坦贝克与基督教的渊源以及《圣经》对他创作的深刻影响。第二部分为正文,分为三章：第一章简要分析《伊甸之东》中偏爱与嫉妒主题的圣经原型。《圣经》中该隐因嫉妒亚伯的贡品受到上帝的偏爱而杀死了亚伯,被上帝驱逐到伊甸之东。但该隐在这片土地上仍受上帝保护,免遭他人的伤害。因此作品名称《伊甸之东》既代表邪恶之地,又代表希望之地。本部作品中亚当·特拉斯克与查尔斯·特拉斯克的圣经原型分别为亚伯和该隐。亚当和《圣经》中的亚伯一样单纯朴实,而查尔斯则像该隐那样,因嫉妒生恨而伤害亲兄弟；在下一代中,亚当对于阿伦的怜惜和爱同样招致了迦尔的嫉妒,该隐杀兄的悲剧在两代人间不断上演。通过对偏爱与嫉妒主题的圣经原型解读,读者对斯坦贝克笔下的人物形象的理解会更丰满、更深刻。第二章主要讨论《伊甸之东》中背叛与原谅主题的圣经原型。从人类始祖亚当与夏娃背叛上帝开始,人类曾多次背叛上帝,但最终上帝宽恕了人类并引导人们重新获得了生命之水。《伊甸之东》中的亚当·特拉斯克有着同《圣经》中亚当相似的单纯、善良以及对夏娃的一片深情；卡西·特拉斯克则像夏娃一样诱惑别人触犯原罪,并为亚当生育了子嗣。亚当原谅了卡西的背叛与欺骗,他也原谅了迦尔的过错,并鼓励迦尔放下心理包袱。第三章主要分析《伊甸之东》中善与恶主题的圣经原型。首先分析善与恶的意象原型：水与火。在《圣经》中,水是生命之源,是神对人的恩典,寓意着生命力和创造力,是人类获得新生的标志；水的意象还象征着水洗礼。水洗礼表明旧我和罪的死亡,新我的出现。在《伊甸之东》中亚当通过浸在水中,先后两次完成了自我救赎。《圣经》中火用于惩罚,斯坦贝克则赋予火双重含义：一方面火代表邪恶,卡西的欲望之火烧死了亲生父母,迦尔的愤怒之火在燃尽钞票之时也燃尽了他对弟弟最后的善意；另一方面,火代表着对罪恶的毁灭和对人性的净化。其次分别对善与恶的人物原型进行分析：善的原型以分析塞缪尔·汉密尔顿和老李为例,前者像摩西帮助旷野中的众人击石出水那样帮助整个萨利纳斯河谷居民寻找水源,后者则是亚当的生活导师和灵魂导师；恶的原型以分析卡西·特拉斯克为例,卡西是整部小说中的撒旦,她阴暗、堕落,弑父母,自甘沦落风尘。最后探讨斯坦贝克辩证的善恶观。善与恶的较量贯穿《圣经》的始终,也贯穿本部作品的始终。第三部分为结论,《圣经》中的伊甸园是人类美好家园的普遍意象,是人类生活、情感与心灵上的寄托。虽然人类因触犯原罪再也回不到曾经的伊甸园,但人类可以通过努力建造新的伊甸园。在小说的结尾,曾经被荒废的伊甸园逐步被重建,更重要的是,亚当在自己的精神世界中重建了伊甸园。从圣经原型理论这一视角来研究《伊甸之东》的主题,有助于人们更深刻地理解小说中的人物形象、主题意蕴以及二十世纪的美国社会,这也正是笔者这篇论文的价值和意义所在。本文通过分析人类对伊甸园的寻找、伊甸园的建立失败以及伊甸园的重建三个过程,揭示和剖析在以物质利益为核心,资本主义迅速膨胀的美国现代社会中,人们生活的困苦和精神的危机,我们可以清楚地看到人性的善恶和弱点以及作者内心对美好家园和幸福生活的渴望。而小说中的人物最终在善恶之间所做出的选择再一次印证了斯坦贝克对善的追求。由于篇幅有限,本文只选取了《伊甸之东》众多主题中的三个进行圣经原型研究,这是本文的不足之处。
[Abstract]:John Stainback, one of the most important American writers in the twentieth Century, was awarded the Nobel prize for literature in 1962. Steinbeck is a prolific writer, and has completed more than 10 novels in his whole life. His works are rich in themes, involving war, politics, society, human nature and others, which have been widely concerned and studied by scholars from all countries. This article tries to analyze the theme of Steinbeck's late works of Eden from the perspective of Biblical archetype, based on the relationship between biblical love and jealousy, betrayal and forgiveness, and the theme of good and evil and the theme of this novel, digging into the artistic value of the novel and enriching the biblical elements in the works of Steinbeck in China. This article is composed of three parts: introduction, text and conclusion. The main contents are as follows: the first part is introduction, introduction to Steinbeck and the east of Eden, a summary of the domestic and international research status of the east of Eden, the prototype theory and the biblical archetypal theory, and the analysis of the origin of Steinbeck and Christianity and the creation of the Bible by the Bible. The second part is the text, which is divided into three chapters: the first chapter is a brief analysis of the Bible archetype of the theme of love and jealousy in the east of Eden. So the name of the work of Eden, therefore, represents the place of evil and the place of hope. The Biblical archetype of Adam and Charles Trask in this work is as simple as Abel and Cain and Cain and Adam and the Abel in the Bible, and Charles, like Cain, hurt his brother by jealousy; In the next generation, Adam's pity and love for Allen also envied the jealousy of Kal. The tragedy of Cain's brother killed the two generations. Through the Biblical archetype of the theme of preference and jealousy, the reader's understanding of Steinbeck's character will be more plump and deeper. The second chapter mainly discusses the betrayal of the east of Eden. The Bible archetype of pardon the theme. From the betrayal of God by the human ancestor Adam and Eve, human beings had betrayed God many times, but eventually God forgiven mankind and guided people to regain the water of life. Adam trezk in the east of Eden had a simple, kind, and a deep affection for Eve in the middle of the Bible. Casey trusk, like Eve, enticed others to offend the original sin and gave birth to Adam. Adam forgave Casey's betrayal and deception, and he also forgiven JAL's fault and encouraged jar to lay down his psychological burden. The third chapter mainly analyzed the Biblical archetype of "the east of Eden > in the good and the evil theme". First, the image of good and evil was analyzed. Archetype: water and fire. In the Bible, water is the source of life, the grace of God to man, the meaning of life and creativity, the symbol of human being, the image of water also symbolizes the baptism of water. The baptism shows the death of old I and sin, the emergence of new me. In the east of Eden, Adam completed himself two times successively by dipping in the water. Redemption. < Bible > the fire is used for punishment. Steinbeck gives the double meaning of fire: on the one hand, the fire represents evil, and the fire of Casey's desire burns dead parents, and the angry fire of calf burns out his final kindness to his brother at the time of burning the bill; on the other hand, the fire represents the destruction of evil and the purification of human nature. Do not analyze the archetype of good and evil characters: the prototype of the good is to analyze Samuel Hamilton and Lao Li for example, the former is like Mose helping the people in the wilderness with the stone water to help the whole Salinas Valley residents look for water, the latter is Adam's life tutor and soul mentor; the evil archetype is to analyze Casey Tel. For example, Cassie is the Satan in the whole novel. She is dark, decadent, and murdered. She finally explores Steinbeck's dialectic view of good and evil. The contest between good and evil runs through the Bible and runs through this work. The third part is the conclusion that the garden of Eden in the Bible is a universal image of a good home of mankind. It is a human being. In the end of the novel, the garden of Eden was gradually rebuilt, and more importantly, Adam rebuilt the garden of Eden in his own spiritual world. From biblical archetypal theory, the garden of Eden was rebuilt at the end of the novel. The study of the theme of "east of Eden" will help people to understand the characters in the novels, the meaning of the theme and the American Society of the twentieth Century, which is the value and significance of the paper in twentieth Century. This article is to analyze the search for the garden of Eden, the failure of the Eden building and the reconstruction of the garden of Eden. The three process reveals and analyzes the hardship and spiritual crisis of people's life in the modern American society with the core of material interests and the rapid expansion of capitalism. We can clearly see the good and evil and weakness of human nature and the desire of the author's heart to a better home and a happy life. The choice made once again confirms Steinbeck's pursuit of good. Because of the limited space, this article only chooses three of the themes of Eden to study the archetype of Biblical archetype, which is the deficiency of this article.
