《汤姆·索亚历险记》的现实主义与浪漫色彩

Realism and Ideal Romanticism in the Adventures of Tom Sawyer

马克·吐温作品中的现实主义因素是不容质疑的 ,但他还兼容了其它创作手法 ,喜欢采用浪漫主义的笔调 ,以夸张的、荒诞的手法刻画人物性格。在《汤姆·索亚历险记》中 ,吐温一方面讽刺了镀金时代小市民的庸俗、保守、贪婪 ,资产阶级儿童教育的清规戒律以及道德和宗教的虚伪 ;另一方面描写了汤姆及其伙伴追求传奇、冒险、浪漫、幸福的生活。既赋于现实主义的真实写照 ,又寄予浪漫主义的大胆抒情。现实主义同理想浪漫主义水乳交融 ,这在很大程度上构成了这部小说的创作风格。
