塞林格通过《麦田守望者》中的主人公表达了自己对真善的渴望以及对纯洁的追求,同时对主流道德体系提出质疑,进而对理性、知识和大众文化等权力话语进行了抗争颠覆,可是他毕竟不能摆脱身处其中的状态,在他的抗争和颠覆中我们又可发现对主流价值观念的屈从和附和。

What＇s more, he attempts to rebel against reason, knowledge and the mass cuhrue. However, the writer＇s struggle only came in vain. for evidence can still be found about the his submission to mass culture in which he is living.
