对“不可说”的言说——莎士比亚十四行诗的时间主题探析

To Say What is “Not to Say”——An analysis of the Theme of Time in Shakespeare’s Sonnets

时间是莎士比亚十四行诗的主题,也是基调。透过内在的时间链条,诗人表达了他对人生、友谊和艺术的思考,充满了哲理和启迪。时间残暴无情,人类只有通过结婚生子、诗歌创作和忠贞的爱情来对抗并征服时间。根据维特根斯坦的理论,在这些抗争中潜伏着莎士比亚"不可说"的内在主题——即对人的讴歌。莎士比亚十四行诗中对人的能力的肯定以及对人类所创造的艺术美和美好爱情的自信是文艺复兴时期人文主义思想的充分体现。

Time is the theme and keynote of Shakespeare’s sonnets.Through the chain of time,Shakespeare expresses his positive attitude towards life,friendship and art,which is filled with philosophy and implications.Time is cruel and merciless.Man can only fight and conquer it through offspring,poetry and true love.In light of Wittgenstein’s theory,this resistance is hidden in Shakespeare’s unstated theme： the praise of man.In his sonnets,Shakespeare expresses his affirmation of human ability,his confidence in the beauty of art created by man and human love,which is a sufficient reflection of the humanistic thought of the Renaissance.
