Joseph Conrad是英国杰出的小说家,他的海洋小说和丛林小说颇为人关注,但人们对他的社会小说却感到陌生。《间谍》是Conrad重要的政治小说,被认为是作者艺术创作最完美成熟的作品之一,然而学者们对其故事内容和主题评论存在不同的理解:...Joseph Conrad是英国杰出的小说家,他的海洋小说和丛林小说颇为人关注,但人们对他的社会小说却感到陌生。《间谍》是Conrad重要的政治小说,被认为是作者艺术创作最完美成熟的作品之一,然而学者们对其故事内容和主题评论存在不同的理解:一种观点坚持认为无政府主义是小说的中心,另一种则相信道德关怀才是小说的主旨。笔者赞同后者的观点,认为小说的主题是道德沦丧。本文就此问题对《间谍》进行解读,剖析作者巧妙利用无政府主义和家庭生活之间的关系,展示出人性和道德的社会伦理问题。展开更多
