《麦田守望者》是塞林格唯一的一部长篇小说,书中主人公霍尔顿·考尔菲德是美国二战后“垮掉的一代”的象征。《圣经》中约拿书中约拿的形象与经历与霍尔顿有诸多相似之处,都表现了悖逆—逃离—回归的叙事结构。本篇论文以借助诺斯洛普·弗莱的神话原型批评理论,探讨《麦田守望者》与圣经原型之间的对应关系,从而更为深刻地挖掘这部小说的思想内涵、社会意义。
The Catcher in the Rye is Salinger’s only novel, in which Holden Caulfield is the symbol of America’s “Beat Generation” after World War II. The image and experience of Jonah in Jonah in the Bible have many similarities with those of Holden. All of them show the narrative structure of rebellion, escape and return. In this dissertation, with the help of Northrop Frye ’s theory of mythological criticism, this essay explores the correspondence between the Catcher in the Rye and the biblical archetype, so as to dig deeper into the ideological connotation and social significance of this novel.
