斯蒂芬·克莱恩是19世纪末美国最具男性主义特征的作家之一。《老兵》通常被认为是他的战争名著——《红色英勇勋章》的续篇,然而,该小说决非单纯描写“内战英雄”的退役生活,而是有着深刻的历史内蕴,它的社会性主题是代际冲突,凸显于男性气质认知方面。克莱恩通过这部作品传达了自己对当时美国社会问题的思考,并提出了解决之道。
Stephen Klein was one of the most masculine American writers in the late 19th century. “Veteran” is generally considered as a sequel to his war masterpiece “Red Heroes Medal,” however. Instead of simply describing the retirement life of “heroic civil war,” it has a profound historical connotation. Its Social themes are inter-generational conflicts that highlight the masculinity of cognitive aspects. Through this work, Klein conveyed his thoughts on the social problems in the United States at that time and put forward solutions.
