The Embodiment of Family Responsibility and Morality——On Jewish American Writer Bernard Malamud's Depiction of Male Protagonists

美国犹太作家马拉默德善于细腻地描述普通人面对生活的艰辛和不幸而表现出来的坚忍和宽容。本文着重分析作家笔下的男主人公们是如何以宽容和忍耐、忠诚和责任维系家庭的完整,进而指出无论是年长者的尽心竭力还是年轻者的在挫折中成熟,最终帮助他们实现精神升华的是源自东欧传统犹太村落对家庭的尊崇。

As a Jewish writer, Malamud is known for his profound depiction of the tolerance, loyalty,responsibility. The paper mainly analyzes how, endowed with such virtues, they struggle to keep the integrity of their families, so as to point out it is the tradition of family reverence rooted in the European Jewish ＇Shtetl＇ that enables them to realize the spiritual sublimation.
