中文摘要:唯美主义的代表人物奥斯卡王尔德是英国文坛上闻名的才子，他向来妙语连珠，并且因“唯美主义”而闻名。其著名的喜剧《认真的重要性》描绘了英国维多利亚时期上层社会的生活。剧中两位主角双重人格和生活使人印象深刻并且因此成为此剧的关键冲突。而史实证明现实生活中的王尔德也过着一种隐秘的双重生活,这使人联想到王尔德的心理和其作品本身的内在联系。是什么促使了他从一位简单的唯美主义倡导者变成过着双重生活,并最终沦为阶下囚的呢? 又是什么使得他的欲望冲破自我的束缚?借助弗洛伊德对精神分析的一些理论,本文着力于从文化差异和心理学角度揭开《认真的重要性》中人物和王尔德的双重身份下所隐藏的心理学和社会学根源。
