An Archetypal Criticism Analysis of Faulkner’s Redemption Thought in The Sound and the Fury

摘要: 《喧哗与骚动》是诺贝尔文学奖得主威廉•福克纳于1929年创作的一部小说。它在美国有着巨大的影响力，在美国现代图书馆1998年所评的“二十世纪英文小说一百强”中名列第六。福克纳出生在一个基督教家庭。在他的作品中，可以感受到强烈的宗教意识，因此本文采用原型批评的方法来分析小说中的圣经典故。诺思洛普•弗莱(Northrop Frye)认为，有三种类型的原型，分别是原型主题、原型人物，和原型意象。本文将对小说中这三种《圣经》原型进行分析，强调每种类型的平行用法和转移用法。结论认为，福克纳的救赎思想是末日式的末世救赎。

Abstract: The Sound and the Fury is a novel written by the Nobel Prize winner William Faulkner in 1929. It has great influence in America, and in 1998, the Modern Library ranked it sixth on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. Faulkner was born in a Christian family. In his works, a strong sense of religious ideas can be felt, thus this paper used archetype criticism to analyze the biblical allusions in this novel. According to Northrop Frye, there are three types of archetypes, which are the archetypal theme, archetypal character, and archetypal image. This paper will deal with these three types of archetype of this novel on the Bible, and put emphasis on the parallelism and displacement in each type. The conclusion is that Faulkner’s thought of redemption is apocalyptic.
