装点牢房的鲜花——试论克拉丽莎的人物形象

Flowers Decorating Prison Cells:On Larissa's Characters

克拉丽莎.达洛卫是《达洛卫夫人》中的中心人物,是一个矛盾着的人物。一方面,这个上流社会的贵妇人恪守阶级偏见,沉溺于安逸的生活;另一方面,她能透过浮华的生活表面,直视生命的终结——死亡,从而进行着超越的种种努力。这种两重性在小说中从多方面得到了刻画,其背后蕴涵了伍尔夫本人创作的一贯主题。

Larissa Dalloway, a conflict personality, is the major character in Mrs. Dalloway. The upper - class noblewoman is scrupulously abided by the class bias, and abandons herself to the easy life ; meanwhile, she can permeate the flashy life and envisage the end of life--death, and then makes her various efforts to exceed it. The contradiction has been depicted from many sides in her novel, which exhibits her persistent theme of literary creation.
