摘要
小说《了不起的盖茨比》出自美国爵士时代代言人费兹杰拉德之笔,自二十世纪二十年代出版之日起便倍受关注。本文用弗洛伊德精神分析批评方法解读该小说中的三个主要人物:主人公盖茨比是一个充满激情的幻想家,本文通过对盖茨比强烈的爱欲、压抑在潜意识里的欲望,向读者呈现了盖茨比这一传奇形象;小说的叙述者尼克充当道德评判者的角色,他强烈的超我以及对盖茨比的互补性认同感是解读盖茨比这个人物的核心;女主人公黛西作为旧贵族的典型,被冠以“拜金女郎”的称号,本文深刻剖析了她丑恶的本我以及深藏在潜意识里的空虚。
The Great Gatsby was written by Francis Scott Fitzgerald,the representative of the Jazz Age in America,and has drawn much attention since its publication in 1920s.The thesis analyzes the three main characters in this novel from the perspective of Freudian psychoanalytic criticism:the protagonist Gatsby is a passionate illusionist.Through interpretations of Gatsby’s intense Eros,the suppressed desires in his unconscious,the thesis presents the legendary image of Gatsby to all readers;the narrator in this novel,Nick,assumes the role of a moral judge,whose strong superego and identification to the protagonist Gatsby form the essence of this character;the heroine Daisy is the representative of old aristocrats,who is labeled as “the golden girl”,and the thesis analyzes her lusty id and the hollowness hidden in her unconscious deeply.
