摘要海明威是美国著名小说家,一生中创造了很多人物形象。虽然这些形象各异,但存在着其相似之处。而这个相似处被世人称为“硬汉精神”。“硬汉精神”即在面对困难时,不消极,不退缩,以顽强的意志和坚忍不拔的信念与之对抗并敢于与命运作斗争。1954年海明威凭借着《老人与海》这一作品获得诺贝尔文学奖,也正是这一作品中的主人公——圣地亚哥这一人物形象将“硬汉”精神表现的淋漓尽致并将其推至最光辉的顶端。
本文是从主人公圣地亚哥这一形象出发,揭示“硬汉”这一形象。在论文的第一部分会对小说的作者,背景,以及小说的内容进行简单的概述。从而引出论文的中心论点----分析圣地亚哥这一硬汉形象。在论文的第二部分,会在论文中对海明威以及硬汉形象会有所分析。从而对比出海明威与圣地亚哥之间的共同点。在第三部分,论文会对主人公的“硬汉”形象进行具体的分析。在具体分析的过程中,论文会根据小说的内容将其分为三个部分:第一部分为永不放弃的“硬汉”形象;第二部分为乐观向上的“硬汉”形象;第三部分为悲壮的“硬汉”形象。 第四部分,论文会对分析所得的硬汉形象作一总结。
