摘要
《黑暗的心》是英国杰出小说家约瑟夫.康拉德的一部极有影响力的作品。评论家们大多从神秘、象征、精神分析和殖民主义的角度来加以诠释,对其荒诞的主题则鲜有涉足。存在主义哲学主要探讨和关注人类在现代社会中的生存境况和精神世界。本文以存在主义理论为基础,通过对小说中自然环境、人物以及人际关系和事件描写的分析,揭示了小说的主题——荒诞;同时指出康拉德在小说中生动地描述他所预见到的现代人荒谬而可怕的生存状态,是源自于他对生活的观察和体验,表达了他对人类未来的关切和忧虑。
Heart of Darkness is one of Joseph Conrad's most influential works. The interpretation of this classic piece is mostly focused on the points of its mystery, symbolism, psychoanalysis and colonialism. However, its theme of absurdity is ignored. The writing, based on the theory of existentialism attempts to analyze the description of natural environment, characters, interpersonal relationship and events reveals the theme of this novel - absurdity. Then it comes to the conclusion that the vivid description of the absurd and horrifying existent state of modem people is out of Conrad's keen observation of life and expresses his concern and worry about human future.
