路在脚下——从萨特存在主义看《长路》

On the Way——The Analysis of The Road from the Perspective of Sartre’s Existentialist Theory

科马克·麦卡锡的小说《长路》讲述了世界末日到来之时,秩序崩塌,文明消亡,一对劫后余生的父子展开自我救赎,在迷茫中寻求生存的温暖与希望。虽然一路艰辛,但是深厚的父子关系及他们对道德的判断和伦理的选择都淋漓尽致地展现了人性的真善美,向读者传递出满满的正能量。运用萨特存在主义理论分析文本,可以更加深刻地了解父子的处境及行为选择的意义与价值,反思人与自然的关系,珍惜和平的生存环境,并激励读者执着奋斗、不懈追求、永不放弃,敢于去发现和探索未知的路。

The Road tells us that the order collapses and civilization disappears when the end of the world comes.A father and his son who survived after the disaster try their best to seek the hope of survival.Although the journey is difficult,the deep love between father and son and their choice of moral and ethical values are quite impressive,which shows the truth,goodness and beauty of human nature in detail.Besides,their attitudes inspire a large number of readers.Through the use of Sartre’s existentialist theory,we can have a better understanding of the situation of father and son and the significance and value of their choice,which can help us reflect on the relationship between man and nature,cherish the peaceful living environment,never give up,and dare to discover and explore the unknown road.
