摘要
诺曼·梅勒的《裸者与死者》是一部描写第二次世界大战的杰出文学作品,被认为是二战后战争文学中最好的小说之一。小说以战争为背景,描述战争压抑下的人类精神危机的种种病症:思想空虚、道德沦丧、权力和欲望的膨胀,揭示战争对人类身心的摧残和破坏,以及由此导致的人与人之间关系的疏离。人类只有去除物质主义的价值观,不断调整、端正自己的价值取向,最终才能消除精神生态危机的根源,才能从战争的桎梏中解放出来,重建一个充满公平正义的和谐社会。

Only if human beings get rid of the material desire and reassess their value orientation, can they free from the catastrophe of the the war and thus rebuild a harmonious society embodving fairness and Justice.
