發(fā)布時間：2020-12-12 14:29
作為戰(zhàn)后美國最優(yōu)秀的作家之一,索爾·貝婁榮獲了許多榮譽(yù),其中包括最有影響力的諾貝爾文學(xué)獎。貝婁擅長描寫現(xiàn)代知識分子的生活和心態(tài),探索現(xiàn)代人的精神危機(jī)和出路,多層次、富有質(zhì)感地刻畫人物的心理活動,對美國表面物質(zhì)繁榮之下的精神危機(jī)進(jìn)行了深入和獨(dú)到的觀察。他不僅擁有深厚的猶太文化傳統(tǒng)、極其淵博的知識,更通過對美國社會的觀察和分析,形成了既富于同情,又兼有喜劇性的嘲諷和嚴(yán)肅的思考相結(jié)合的獨(dú)特的“貝婁式風(fēng)格”�，F(xiàn)代人進(jìn)退維谷的生存困境在貝婁作品中得到了真實(shí)的體現(xiàn)。在1959年出版的《雨王漢德森》一書中,貝婁對于現(xiàn)代社會的異化現(xiàn)象和現(xiàn)代人的精神危機(jī)更是進(jìn)行了深刻的洞察。 《雨王漢德森》講述的是現(xiàn)代人追尋精神家園的故事。主人公漢德森為了尋找精神危機(jī)的出路而深入非洲腹地,經(jīng)過一系列的歷險最終完成了精神轉(zhuǎn)變�，F(xiàn)代人對于死亡和生存危機(jī)的焦慮,通過漢德森內(nèi)心所受到的折磨和他的非洲之行清晰地表現(xiàn)出來。貝婁獨(dú)特的人物刻畫以及對于神話原型中的追尋主題的運(yùn)用為小說帶來了成功。而主人公內(nèi)心那個“我要,我要”的聲音更是給讀者留下了深刻的印象。貝婁選擇了連他自己都沒有到過的非洲作為漢德森的目的地,給他的創(chuàng)造力和想象...
