论曹禺五大经典的贯串主题

The Continuous theme in Cao Yu’s Five Classics

1933年至1942年,10年间曹禺创作了《雷雨》《日出》《原野》《北京人》《家》(根据巴金同名小说改编)五部剧作,近80年的历史证明,它们是可以永远流传于世的经典剧作。这些剧作题材不同、样式不同,但反映的都是中国旧世界的罪恶,它们都有一个贯串的主题:对光明的向往,对自由、幸福生活的向往,至今仍具有激励人民追求真善美,鼓舞人心的艺术魅力。

During the ten years from 1933 to 1942,Cao Yu wrote five plays,Thunderstorm,Sunrise,Wilderness,Beijinger,and the Family(adapted from Ba Jin's novel of the same name).Eighty years of history proves that these are classical dramas that can be passed on from generation to generation.The themes and styles of these plays vary,but they all reflect the evils of the old world of China.They all have a continuous theme:yearning for brightness,hoping for freedom and happiness.Even till this day,they still have the artistic charm of inspiring people to pursue truth,goodness and beauty.
