摘要
美国当代犹太作家E.L.多克特罗于2000年出版了里程碑式的长篇小说《上帝之城》。在这部小说中,作者站在世纪之交的制高点上,对20世纪的"世纪病"——信仰问题,进行了全面深入的反思,并在批判继承奥古斯丁宗教思想的基础上,立足伦理道德,创造性地建构了"进化派犹太教",倡导一种现世的、当下的信仰。面对人类日益加剧的信仰问题,多克特罗以一个作家的责任心,在后现代文化的荒漠中指出了一条可能的出路。
E. L. Doctorow, a famous contemporary Jewish American author, published a landmark novel, City of God, in 2000. Standing on the highpoint at the turn - of - the - century, he made a comprehensive and profound introspection on the "disease in the 20th century" the problem in belief, and then creatively con- structed "Synagogue of Evolutionary Judaism" based on the ethic and critical inheritance of the religious thought of Aurelius Augustinus to propose an earthly and present belief. Facing the mounting problem in belief, E. L. Doctorow pointed out a possible way in the desert of post - modern culture as the responsibility of the author.
