理性悲剧《浮士德》:人类灵魂与时代精神的发展史

Faust:A Tragedy of Reason

作为一部人类灵魂与时代精神的发展史 ,诗剧《浮士德》以百科全书式的多样性 ,向世人展现了它所张扬的自强不息精神和生命应在追求、超越中获得升华的理念。同时 ,它以巨大的勇气和深邃的洞察揭示了人类存在的困境和人性发展的悖论 ,体现了人类理性的一种普遍的“悲剧性”宿命。《浮士德》既是对“浮士德精神”的颂歌 ,也是对浮士德式追求的反思 ;既是对人的自信 ,也是对人的怀疑 ;既是对现实生活的肯定 ,更是对理想生活的呼唤。

As a lyrical masterpiece,Faust depicts man's voyage of self-exploration,with Faust in his continual pursuit of something bigger and better. By exploring a wide variety of polar opposites,Goethe has created a microcosm of life,trying to preserve its complexity,its tensions,and its dynamism.
