论戈尔丁《金字塔》中的宗教隐喻

On Religious Metaphors in Golding's The Pyramid

英国作家威廉·戈尔丁深受基督教思想影响,其小说《金字塔》表现了深刻的宗教隐喻。金十字架项链暗示了斯城众人的犯罪以及救赎的可能性";天堂即音乐"的破灭象征了人类精神信仰的失落;面对这样的生存境况,戈尔丁借卷首引语给出了救世良方——精神之爱。

Golding, an English writer, is deeply affected by Christian thought,and his novel The Pyramid shows profound religious metaphors. Gold cross necklace implies the crime of people in Si city and the possibility of salvation;the destroying of“Paradise is music”symbolizes the disappearance of spiritual beliefs of human. In the face of this survival situation, Golding provides the prescription for salvation—“Spiritual love”by preface.
