6、的人v有产业的人（1906）是Galsworthy所创作的福尔赛世家三部曲中的第一部。书中所描写的福尔赛世家正处于由兴盛到衰落的转折时期。福尔赛一家是金融家、交易所经纪人、拥有房地产或者股票的资产阶级。他们对立身处世、待人接物，对衣食住行、家庭关系，对殖民地、不列颠帝国等都形成了本质上相同的看法，这就是书中所讲的“福尔赛精神”，它的主要特征是“紧抓住财产不放，不管是老婆，还是房子，还是金钱，还是名誉”。v有产业的人中的主人公索米斯Soames被作者称为“福尔赛军队的先锋”。他把一切东西都当作商品、当作资本。每看见一幅名画、一件古玩，总要想到这在拍卖行里能拍卖多少钱。他买地造屋，首先考虑地价会不
7、会上涨，房子将来能否卖上高价。在对待妻子伊琳Irene的态度上，更加明显地暴露出这种观念。他看中她的美貌，想占为己有，便用金钱收买了伊琳的后母，达到了目的。但他并没有把妻子看做是有独立人格的人，只是像收藏名画一样占有她，自己则由于“在全伦敦面前感到是这个尤物的占有者而沾沾自喜，自觉身价百倍”。The thing that proves to be most troublesome for the Forsyte is the fact that Soames knows that his wife Irene is not his property in its real sense.She

10、 suffering poor.小说的主题小说的主题v小说对于福尔赛一家表面上一团和气、你来我往，骨子里却勾心斗角、互相猜忌、幸灾乐祸的自私心理，作了细致的揭露。v小说对资产阶级作了犀利的讽刺，是最能体现Galsworthy进步思想和艺术手法的现实主义杰作。思想局限性v描写的生活圈子过于狭隘，局限于资产阶级中上层的道德、婚姻、家庭领域，而没有展现出那一时代广阔的社会风貌。v在揭露和讽刺“福尔赛精神”的同时，却又对福尔赛家族某些重要成员，如老乔里恩等人进行理想化的描写。此此课件下件下载可自行可自行编辑修改，修改，仅供参考！供参考！感感谢您的支持，我您的支持，我们努力做得更好！努力做得更好！谢谢!
