由徐彬撰写的《伦理选择与价值评判:劳伦斯·达雷尔重奏小说研究》一书以文学伦理学批评为分析方法揭示了达雷尔重奏小说的伦理结构及内涵。该专著突破了现有国外研究中方法陈旧与单一的局限,对国内外达雷尔研究及与之相关的英美文学研究贡献颇丰。专著首次阐释了达雷尔的艺术伦理选择问题。达雷尔的艺术伦理选择表现为对前驱作家继承与超越的艺术伦理旨归和对现代、后现代和后殖民语境下性爱、自我完满以及场所等母题的伦理思考。

Ethical Choice and Value Judgment： Study on Lawrence Durrell＇s Ensemble Novels written by Xu Bin has employed literary ethical criticism as its critical paradigm and revealed the ethical structures and connotations in Durrell＇s ensemble novels. The monograph has broken through the theoretical bottle neck of the present international scholarship on Durrell and made a great contribution to Durrellian scholarship and related English and American Literature studies. The monograph has deciphered questions related with Durrell＇s artistic ethical selections. Durrell＇s artistic ethical selections are reflected in his ethical pursuit of inheriting and surpassing his predecessors and his ethical reflections on motifs such as sex, self-fulfillment and place in modern, postmodern and postcolonial contexts.
