摘要
斯坦贝克的许多小说或隐或显地构建在寓言剧《每个人》和《圣经》的文本框架之内。由此,他的小说不再是传统学界所认为的"社会抗议"文字,而是对人类具有永久性警示作用的力作,因为它们揭示了人类亘古以来一个崇高而宏大的主题,即善与恶冲突背景下的人类的出行和救赎。
Many novellas of John Steinbeck are implicitly or explicitly constructed in the context of Everyman, the ancient allegorical play, and Bible. As a result, his novellas are endowed with universal meaning, as they reveal a noble and grand theme, i.e. human beings' journey and redemption in the background of conflict between good and evil.
