生态文学批评是将以地球及其生态为中心的思想应用于文学研究领域,在这种思想体系下探讨文学与环境的关系。福克纳认为资本主义的生产方式践踏了环境,打破了二者之间的平衡,不仅破坏了美国南方的农业文明,更使人类社会陷入生态和精神的双重危机中。 Ecological literary criticism applies the idea of ​​earth and its ecology as the center to the field of literary studies and explores the relationship between literature and the environment in this ideological system. Faulkner believes that the capitalist mode of production tramples on the environment and breaks the balance between the two. It not only undermines the agricultural civilization in the southern United States, but also places the human society in a double crisis of ecology and spirit.
