With the development of science and technology, a lot of environmental problems have emerged, such as solid waste, pollution, expansion of industrialization and so on. Under such circumstance, more and more scholars realized the severity of environmental destruction, and at the same time, they began to profoundly rethink the relationships between human beings and the nature.

摘要：杰克·伦敦是19世纪末20世纪初美国最伟大的小说家之一。他一生经历坎坷却创作出了大量的优秀作品。在18年的创作生涯中，伦敦出版了多达50篇文学作品，并且这些作品都受到了国内外学者的好评。《热爱生命》就是他众多著名作品中的一篇短篇小说，创作于1906年。《热爱生命》这篇小说主要讲述的是一个来自文明社会的淘金者在得到大量的黄金之后，面对大自然的重重险境又不得不弃金保命，从而得以生还的故事。小说主人公强烈的求生欲望是他得以生存的主要因素，他与周围环境作斗争的过程中给读者留下了深刻的印象。
随着科学技术的不断发展，许多环境问题在不断地恶化。如固体废弃物，环境污染，工业化扩张等问题。基于此，越来越多的学者意识到了环境破坏的严重性，同时，他们也深刻的反思了人与自然的关系。生态批评是探讨文学与自然环境之关系的研究。本篇论文将从生态批评的角度对小说《热爱生命》中所蕴含的生态思想进行解读，旨在向读者传递一种人与自然和谐相处的思想。
