摘要
约翰·厄普代克的《兔子四部曲》揭示了深刻的宗教问题,主人公"兔子"花费毕生的经历展开了对神圣宗教信仰的追求,在传统的宗教信仰和"兔子"的宗教情结碰撞和冲突中,既有作家对传统宗教信仰日渐衰落现实的惋惜之情,也反映出现代社会宗教演变过程中人们急切摆脱宗教信仰困境的各种矛盾心态,他要暗示的是把神圣和世俗从两个极端拉向中央,把神圣和世俗相融合,使看得见的世界和看不见的世界重新平衡。
John Updike＇ s Rabbit Tetralogy shows his subtle examination on the religious faith in American society, and describes Rabbit＇ s life long quest for the sacred, as well. Through the depiction of the conflict between traditional religious faith and Rabbit＇ s religiosity, the author exhibits his regret on the declining or the withering of traditional religion, and his ambivalence upon the predica- ment of the ordinary people in the process of religious evolution. What Updike implies is to pull the sacred and the secular from their extremeness towards the middle, to integrate the sacred with the secular, to rebalance the relationship between the visible and the in- visible.
