1. 研究目的与意义

Upon its publication, Winesburg, Ohio by Anderson caused a great sensation and was highly spoken of. Obviously the novel was one of the earliest to reveal American people#8217;s depression, loneliness, and frustration amid their life in American small towns, but what Anderson demonstrated in the novel is quite different from those in praise of small town life. The characters living in Winesburg, Ohio under his pen are extremely absurd for being unable to express their desires for love and understanding. To some extent, the absurdity shown in the novel still pervades in our modern life, and thus exploring the absurdity in the theme of the novel is not only helpful to appreciate the aesthetic value of the great work, but it also will help us to know better human#8217;s psychological problems emerging in today#8217;s society.
