美国南方女作家弗兰纳里·奥康纳的作品中的暴力描写一直是争论的热点。其作品中的主要人物几乎都遭受了暴力,甚至许多人物在暴力下死亡。奥康纳似乎在有意地实施着暴力打击。评论家们普遍将这一现象归结为奥康纳由于自身病痛而产生的对人类的仇恨情绪的反映。作为一名虔诚的基督徒,奥康纳对暴力的认识完全是宗教意义上的。 The description of violence in the works of the southern American woman writer Flannery O’Connor has been a hot topic of debate. Almost all of the main characters in her work have been subjected to violence, and many even die of violence. O’Connor seems intent to carry out a violent crackdown. Critics generally attribute this phenomenon to O’Connor’s reaction to human hatred caused by his own illness. As a devout Christian, O’Connor’s perception of violence is entirely religious.
