Title:

Southern Values Result in a Household

—a brief analysis of characters in The Sound and the Fury

Abstract

The title and some of the imagery in the novel are derived from a soliloquy by the titular character in Shakespeares tragedy Macbeth. In Act V, Scene v. The novel concerns the downfall of the Compsons, in the first half of the nineteenth century, and sees the rise of a number of prominent Southern families. These aristocratic families espoused American traditional Southern values. Faulkner contends that in the process, the Compsons, and other similar Southern families, lost touch with the reality of the world around them and became lost in a haze of self-absorption. This self-absorption corrupted the core values these families once held dear and left the newer generations completely unequipped to deal with the realities of the modern world.

Key words: American traditional Southern values   the Sound and the Fury   the modern world

中文摘要

“人生不过是1个行走的影子，1个在舞台上指手画脚的拙劣的伶人，登场片刻，就在无声无息中悄然退下；人生犹如痴人说梦，充满着喧哗与骚动，却没有任何意义。”福克纳的名作《喧哗与骚动》之书名正来源于莎士比亚名剧《麦克白》中的这段台词。这部以美国南方为描绘对象的长篇小说所反映的是20世纪初美国南方社会贵族庄园主衰亡的历史，着重表现了传统观念与现代意识、理想与现实之间的矛盾和冲突。作家通过人物的内心体验来揭示其矛盾和冲突带来的困惑与不安，并把南方地域文化中深沉的历史感和人们迷惘、失落、忧虑而又不断探索的精神内涵融入作品之中，从而使小说迷离、深邃，充满了神秘的现代意识。
