>Moby Dick< of Religious Ethics – An Ethical Interpretation of >Moby Dick< and its Author [《白鲸》及其作者的宗教伦理观分析] [application of Fromm's theories to art]

  • 本文运用埃里希•弗洛姆的>社会潜意识<和>社会性格<两个心理学概念,从宗教伦理的角度对梅尔维尔的经典作品《白鲸》进行分析解读,并据此得出结论:该小说反映了作家本人内心深处长期受到清教思想压抑的宗教伦理观,表达了一位虔诚却不盲从的基督徒对上帝提出的要求,那就是渴望得到上帝之爱,要求尊重个性。而这些观念在当时的清教社会中属于疯狂甚至僭越的想法,因此小说成了表达作家心底呼声的最好工具。
  • With the application of two psychological concepts >social unconsciousness< and >social personality< set up by Erich Fromm, this essay analyzes Moby Dick by Herman Melville from the point of view of religious ethics. What’s more, the author’s own opinion on religious ethics of his time is also probed. A conclusion is set up: Moby Dick reflects the author’s suspicious and rebellious opinion on the relationship between God and men, which shows his strong desire for God’s love for humanity and recognition of individualistic personality. This opinion was long repressed by the dominant Puritanism of the time, and had to find its voice in the novel.
