来自希腊神话和圣经等西方经典的原始场景,作为文化编码存在于西方许多作家的潜意识中,在他们笔下或被继承或被颠覆。运用弗莱的原型批评理论对尤金·奥尼尔的《榆树下的欲望》所体现的神话原型及圣经场景的投影和颠覆进行分析阐述,使我们对奥尼尔价值观和作品思想有了一个新的认识。 Original scenes from Western classics such as Greek myths and Bibles exist as cultural codes in the subconsciousness of many Western writers and are either inherited or overthrown by them. Using Frye’s archetypal criticism theory to analyze and describe Eugene O’Neill’s projection and subversion of myths and biblical scenes embodied in “The Desire Under the Elms,” we have got a new understanding of O’Neill’s values ​​and works.
