發(fā)布時間：2018-11-25 19:57
【摘要】：愛德加·勞倫斯·多克托羅是一位集歷史與社會評論于一身的作家,他的多部作品都受到了極高的評價。近幾年來,中國讀者通過中譯版接觸到了很多他的作品�！渡系壑恰肥嵌嗫送辛_在宗教主題方面的新嘗試。小說中,多克托羅指出由于混亂、動蕩和令人迷茫的社會狀況,20世紀的宗教面臨著困境。這種局面可以用伊哈布·哈桑的不確定的內(nèi)在性來解釋。 本文著眼于多克托羅的新作《上帝之城》,在后現(xiàn)代視角下解讀作品中所反映的宗教問題,分析宗教在后現(xiàn)代時期所面臨的困境以及這種困境背后的原因,從而解決這種困境找到宗教的歸宿,希望這篇論文能在多克托羅作品研究的領(lǐng)域中做出微薄的貢獻。 論文主體的第一部分論述了《上帝之城》中所體現(xiàn)后現(xiàn)代背景下的宗教精神的特征。在20世紀,宗教多元化和宗教世俗化的加強是美國宗教的兩大特點,這體現(xiàn)在小說的兩個主要情節(jié)中一十字架的失蹤以及佩姆和薩拉的婚姻。小說中的新興宗教團體是宗教世俗化加強的縮影。這些特征使得宗教脫離了傳統(tǒng),為宗教危機埋下了不穩(wěn)定的因素。 論文的第二部分關(guān)注《上帝之城》所反映出的后現(xiàn)代視野下宗教精神所遭受到的質(zhì)疑。威脅宗教的有三個方面的因素。20世紀人類的罪惡行為譴責(zé)了上帝,包括大屠殺和越南戰(zhàn)爭；現(xiàn)代社會的發(fā)展否定了上帝,包括哲學(xué)和科學(xué)；藝術(shù)形式中所反映的混亂的社會質(zhì)疑了上帝,包括電影場景和音樂。 論文的第三部分探討了后現(xiàn)代時期的宗教信仰的歸宿。在《上帝之城》中,佩姆和派克主教都是虔誠的信徒,他們通過不同的方法來重識上帝,例如在以色列尋找歷史上的基督和改宗信仰猶太教。然而猶太教并不是完美的宗教,并不能解決所有的宗教問題,還需要改進。因此,信徒還有任務(wù),他們應(yīng)該傳承上帝的精神,改良這個新的宗教團體通去適應(yīng)現(xiàn)代社會。 在英語語言文學(xué)的歷史上,宗教永遠是個經(jīng)久不衰的話題。美國是一個有著很深的宗教文化背景的國家；宗教是文學(xué)、建筑、藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作的背景、母題和主題�！渡系壑恰愤@部作品是多克托羅眾多關(guān)注現(xiàn)實問題的作品之一,使他成為當(dāng)之無愧的后現(xiàn)代時期的文學(xué)大師。通過對這部不朽之作的分析理解,可以使讀者對20世紀美國宗教的狀況和發(fā)展具有更加深刻的理解。
[Abstract]:Edgar Lawrence Doctorow is a writer of both historical and social reviews. In recent years, Chinese readers have come into contact with many of his works through Chinese translation. The City of God is Doctorow's new attempt on religious themes. In the novel, Doctorow points out that the 20 th century religion faced difficulties due to chaos, turbulence and confusing social conditions. This situation can be explained by the indeterminacy of Ihab Hassan. This paper focuses on Doctorow's new work, the City of God, explains the religious problems reflected in the works from the perspective of post-modern, and analyzes the dilemma that religion faces in the post-modern period and the reasons behind this dilemma. It is hoped that this paper can make a modest contribution to the research field of Doctorow's works. The first part of the thesis discusses the characteristics of the religious spirit in the post-modern background in the City of God. In the 20th century, the strengthening of religious pluralism and secularization were two major features of American religion, which were reflected in the disappearance of the cross and the marriage of Pam and Sarah in the two main plots of the novel. The new religious groups in the novel epitomize the strengthening of secularization of religion. These characteristics have separated religion from tradition and laid a source of instability for religious crisis. The second part focuses on the question of the religious spirit in the post-modern view reflected in the City of God. There are three factors threatening religion. The evil acts of human beings in the 20th century condemned God, including the Holocaust and the Vietnam War; the development of modern society negated God, including philosophy and science; The chaotic society reflected in art forms questions God, including film scenes and music. The third part of the paper discusses the post-modern period of religious belief. In the City of God, Bishop Pam and Bishop Pike are devout believers who rediscover God in different ways, such as searching for historical Christ in Israel and conversion to Judaism. Judaism, however, is not a perfect religion. It does not solve all religious problems and needs to be improved. Therefore, believers have the task of inheriting the spirit of God and adapting the new religious community to modern society. In the history of English language and literature, religion has always been an enduring topic. The United States is a country with a deep religious and cultural background. Religion is the background, motif and theme of literature, architecture and art creation. This work is one of Doctorow's many works concerning practical problems, which makes him a worthy literary master in the post-modern period. Through the analysis and understanding of this monumental work, readers can have a deeper understanding of the status and development of American religion in the 20th century.
