1. Introduction
Vladimir Nabokov (1899-1977) is a Russian-American writer, poet, critic, translator, stylist and lepidopterist. He has been acknowledged as one of the most outstanding stylists and novelists of the 20th century. During his life, Nabokov has created numerous books. Vladimir Nabokov was born in St. Petersburg, Russia, on April 23, 1899, into a wealthy and prominent family. He was trilingual in Russian, English, and French from an early age. After the Russian Revolution, Nabokov went into England with his family. Nabokov earned an honors degree in Slavic and Romance languages from Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1922. Nabokov has a great gift for language and literature. His works are characterized by intricate word play and detailed description. Lolita is his most famous work. After its publication in 1955, Lolita shocked the public for its controversial subject and morally ambiguous plot: the abnormal love between a middle-aged man and his 12-year-old stepdaughter. Many regarded it as a pornographic book and think it is about pedophilia .Lolita was even characterized as erotic novel. However, this classification has been disputed later, Lolita soon won its way as a late modernist representative work. Lolita is included on Time's list of the 100 best English-language novels from 1923 to 2005. 《洛丽塔》的精神生态解读:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_57817.html
