Ethical Distortion and Lonely Heart: A Probe into Catherine’s Tragic Fate in Washington Square

导出

摘要《华盛顿广场》是亨利·詹姆斯纯粹以美国为背景写成的最出色的小说之一,也是詹姆斯早期创作中的一部反映时代伦理道德问题的优秀作品。本文借用文学伦理学批评方法,阐释了女主人公悲剧命运与社会伦理观错位的密切关系,指出恰是"资本的同质化"导致了主人公伦理观的扭曲错位,具体则反映为家庭伦理、爱情婚姻伦理的失衡,在此背景下,女主人公的成长必然要付出沉重的代价。詹姆斯通过表现女主人公的个人悲剧,表达了他对当时社会道德伦理秩序混乱和精神危机的忧虑,并透过作品传达了自己的伦理思想。 Washington Square, one of Henry James＇s two best-known novels written in nls eany years with a wholly American setting, is a wonderful novel displaying the ethical situations of the age. By applying Ethical Criticism, this paper explores the relationship between the heroine＇s tragic fate and ethical distortion. It points out that capital honogerization causes ethical distortion as shown in problems of family ethics and love and marriage ethics, which results in the heavy price the heroine has to pay during her growth. By presenting the heroine＇s personal tragedy, James expresses his deep concerns for ethical chaos and mental crisis, and through the works he conveys his ethical thought.
