威廉·福克纳的早期作品染上了自然主义的诸多色彩,他与自然主义有着不解之缘。他深受所处时代对他的影响,家庭成长环境也在他身上留下烙印,遗传和本能对他的影响不容忽视。尤其引人注意的是,福克纳常处经济压力之中,这使他对于“适者生存”有着切身的体会和更好的理解。 The early works of William Faulkner dyed many colors of naturalism, and he was inextricably bound with naturalism. He was deeply influenced by the times, and his family environment was also imprinted on him. The influence of heredity and instinct on him can not be ignored. Of particular note is Faulkner’s constant economic pressure, which gives him an insightful and better understanding of the survival of the fittest.
