《了不起的盖茨比》和《推销员之死》都是反映“美国梦”破灭和造成个人悲剧的杰作。主人公盖茨比和威利有很多共同之处。他们出身低微,却终身以美国梦作为精神动力。他们都为梦想做出相当的努力,取得一定程度的成功,然而,他们最终梦幻破灭,走向悲剧。他们梦想破灭的原因都在于执著追求梦想本身与现实产生错位。他们的悲剧预示美国梦破灭的必然性,他们至死不悟使悲剧超越了个人局限,具有广泛的代表性。  相似文献

The Great Gatsby written by F.Scott Fitzgerald is widely recognized as the cultural document of the Jazz Age.The novel seems to be a love story,but in fact it is about the disillusionment of American Dream-Gatsby’s failure in pursuing his long-cherished dream.Since its publication,the novel has been very popular among ordinary readers and literary critics as well.By applying archetypal criticism developed by Northrop Frye,this paper aims to give a detailed and comprehensive interpretation of the protagonist,Gatsby,and reveal the significance of his tragedy.To some extent,it is the archetypal character that enhances the profundity of the novel and arouses the readers’ response.  相似文献

当代美国作家杰克.凯鲁亚克的小说《在路上》被誉为是"垮掉的一代"的宣言书和《圣经》,它是美国文学中诠释西行主题的经典之作。小说以主人公萨尔对东部厌倦———对西部的幻想———西部梦想的幻灭为线索,体现了"垮掉的一代"时代背景下所贯穿于作品当中的西部情结的主题。这一主题的凸显过程也暗含了美国文学中对东部和中西部所持的对立的传统看法,即东部是欧洲堕落的化身,而中西部是原始道德的发源地,这种西部情结背后深藏的是"垮掉的一代"对现实的不满、对社会的抗议和对自由精神的追求。  相似文献

中国梦不同于美国梦和欧洲梦,它是根植于中国社会的土壤之中,在充分借鉴和吸收外国梦的基础上,形成的中国人自己的梦。这使得中国梦带有浓厚的中国色彩。中国梦以中国道路、中国精神、中国力量为路径,作为推动梦想实现的内生动力;中国梦的独特意涵在于将国家民族的宏伟梦想和个人的具体梦想有机的融合;中国梦以"梦"这个中国老百姓喜闻乐见、心领神会的独特话语来诠释中国人民的共同理想。这些都充分体现出了中国梦的中国特色。  相似文献

This essay draws upon the work of Northrop Frye to show that stories enacting the American Dream contain elements associated with romance, and briefly traces how Ronald Reagan and conservatives utilized the romance of the American Dream to the point that many Americans associated it exclusively with conservatism. The essay then details how Barack Obama, in his 2004 Democratic Convention keynote address, recast the American dream from a conservative to a liberal story.  相似文献
