摘要
爱伦·坡的侦探小说＂三部曲＂都是以杜宾为主角,开创了侦探小说的先河。通过灵魂来直觉地获取真理的超验主义精神深深地隐含在杜宾的思想与行为之中,构成杜宾神圣信仰的主要要素。这种对人之神圣的肯定使杜宾蔑视外部的权威与传统,依赖自己的直觉经验,强调人的主观能动性、权威性及神圣性,这是积极进步的一面。但同时,被神化的杜宾并不能摆脱当时所在的社会背景,因此,他破案的世俗动机使其侦查手段凌驾于法律与道德之上。因此,在爱伦·坡的侦探小说中,杜宾在解开一桩桩谜案的同时,也引发了读者对于人性和道德犯罪的拷问,进而展开更为深远的人文思考。
Adgar Allan Poe is commonly regarded as the father of detective fiction. His detective trilogy feature his amateur investigator Dupin who is deeply influenced by the belief of transcendentalism that people are at their best when truly ＂self-reliant＂and independent. Transcendentalism emphasizes subjective intuition,authority and individual divinity. Hence,Dupin is contemptuous of all the outside authority and traditions and creates the mysteries intentionally,which is the positive part in modern society. In the meantime,as a mortal being,Dupin has inevitably accepted the social values in his time. Hence,when finding the solutions of the cases, his actions have produced the disconcerting story of transgression; Therefore,Dupin may seem to eradicate the mysteries,but he nevertheless leaves the readers in their questioning of ＂humanity and transgressive behavior＂.
