摘要
一直以来,批评家普遍认为乔治·吉辛的贫民小说反映出他对穷人的憎恶态度。然而,通过仔细分析贫民小说中的代表人物,就会发现吉辛憎恶穷人一说未免过于绝对。吉辛在小说中塑造了多种类型的穷人形象,对他们的态度也是复杂的:或憎恶、或同情,甚至是尊敬。
It has been a common belief that George Gissing's slum novels demonstrate his attitude to the poor as a kind of repulsion.Yet,a close investigation of the characters in five of his slum novels reveals that it would be too absolute to define his attitude to the poor in such a simple way.A variety of the poor are created in his novels and Gissing's attitude varies as well.His repulsion is interweaved with sympathy and even respect.
