A Study on the Characters in A Farewell to Arms

摘要

海明威作为20世纪美国文学史上不可忽略的重要人物，其文学成就得到学术界的公认。1929年，《永别了武器》问世。这部被公认为海明威经典之作的小说讲述了第一次世界大战以及战乱年代男女主人公的爱情。尽管当时一战已经过去十年，这部小说的问世取得很大轰动。在小说创作中，作者加入了自己对于意大利战场的理解。作品表现了意大利完全失去自救的能力，文中主人公为了幸存尝试了各种方法，却未能达到最终的救赎，也没能躲过无家可归的命运。小说的悲剧色彩是通过人物对信仰的迷失以及家庭梦想的破碎表现出来的。海明威细致生动地刻画了凯瑟琳与亨利，通过对两位主人公的描写间接地表达了作者本身对于战争的憎恨与厌恶。本论文对小说人物进行分析，探讨作者透过小说所表现出来的反战情绪。

Abstract

Ernest Miller Hemingway is one of the most remarkable novelists in the 20th century in America, whose literature achievements are recognized by the general academic circle. A Farewell to Arms was published in 1929. As one of Hemingway’s masterpieces, this novel tells a story about the war and love in the period of the First World War. Although, it has been past 10 years at that time from the end of World War I, the arrival of this novel caused a great sensation. In A Farewell to Arms, Hemingway put his own understanding towards the Italy in which the war went through and the creation of this novel together. In this work, Italy completely lost the ability to save itself. Although the characters in the novel also tried every possible effective ways to survive, but failing to achieve the final salvation， but finally cannot escape from the fate of the homeless. The tragedy of the novel was embodied in the individual’s loss of faith and the broken dream to the homeland. Hemingway offered a vivid portrayal of Catherine and Henry in A Farewell to Arms, showing his hatred and disgust to the war in an indirect way. This thesis will talk about the anti-war theme under the analysis of the two main characters.
