T. S. Eliot's Concept of Religious Salvation and Artistic Characteristics in Waste Land
-
摘要: 文章结合艾略特本人生活经历与思想探索,以及他最终对基督教的皈依,来系统研究他在其代表作《荒原》中表现出来的拯救意识。艾略特在《荒原》一诗中,认为经历了第一次世界大战洗礼的西方现代社会,进入了一场没有理性、没有信仰、没有秩序的精神文化危机之中,而只有重建基督教信仰维度才能加以拯救。但他宗教救赎的思想是有局限的,终因基督教观念无法把握现代荒原世界而宣告失败。然而艾略特的努力并不是没有价值的,也许正是他无路可走的处境告诉我们应该开辟一条新路,去救赎现代荒原世界,这即是我们站在艾略特这个巨人的肩膀上的继续探索。Abstract: By combining T.S.Eliot's life experiences with his thought exploration and his final belief in Christianity, this paper studies his consciousness of redemption which is expressed in his representative work Waste Land systematically.In Waste Land, Eliot considers the western modern society enters into a spiritual and cultural crisis without reason, belief and order after the First World War, and only by rebuilding Christian faith the western modern society could be saved could.But his religious thought has a limitation and fails finally because the Christian concept couldn't adapt to modern waste world.However, Eliot's effort isn't in vain.Maybe it is just the no alternative situation tells us that we should open up a new way to save the modern waste world, and it is our further exploration on Eliot's, the giant's shoulders.
