在路上追寻 ——“路上生活”在杰克·克鲁亚克《在路上》中的重现

论文摘要

《在路上》是“垮掉的一代”最重要作家之一杰克·克鲁亚克的代表作品。由于小说中描写的主人公在生活方式上与当时的主流社会格格不入,小说从发表之初就引起了极大的争议。然而,随着时间的推移,《在路上》作为反传统文化,追求自由的代表,愈来愈受到社会的承认。本论文以美国“路上文学”母题的视角,考察小说《在路上》冲破传统束缚,探索个人自由的主题。“路上生活”不仅是对传统的判离,而且是对物质生活的超越。《在路上》的主要人物通过他们对个人自由的追求、自我身份的维护、和自我实现的探索,构建了一个与美国主流价值观迥然不同的精神世界。“路上生活”的描述本身构成了小说《在路上》主题的形象表述。
