摘 要
《大卫·科波菲尔》作为查尔斯·狄更斯的代表作之一，其丰富的人物形象为研究19世纪英国社会提供了重要视角。本文以米考伯先生这一经典角色为切入点，探讨其人物形象与乐观主义精神的体现，并分析其在文学创作中的独特价值。研究基于文本细读与批判性解读方法，结合历史语境和社会背景，深入剖析米考伯先生的性格特征及其对故事情节发展的推动作用。研究表明，尽管米考伯先生深陷债务困境，但他始终保持积极的生活态度，这种“米考伯式乐观”不仅成为作品中重要的情感纽带，也反映了狄更斯对人性复杂性的深刻洞察。本文创新性地将米考伯先生的乐观主义置于社会阶级流动与个人命运抗争的框架下进行考察，揭示了其超越时代局限的精神意义。研究结果表明，米考伯先生的形象不仅是19世纪英国底层民众生活的真实写照，也为现代读者提供了关于逆境中保持希望的哲学思考，进一步丰富了对狄更斯作品主题的理解。关键词：米考伯先生; 乐观主义精神; 狄更斯; 社会阶级流动; 逆境与希望
Abstract
"David Copperfield," as one of Charles Dickens's representative works, offers a significant perspective for studying 19th-century British society through its rich character portrayals. This paper focuses on the classic character Mr. Micawber, exploring the embodiment of his personality and optimistic spirit, while analyzing his unique value in literary creation. Based on close reading and critical interpretation, combined with historical context and social background, this study delves into Mr. Micawber's character traits and his role in advancing the narrative. The findings indicate that despite being mired in debt, Mr. Micawber consistently maintains a positive attitude toward life; this "Micawberism" optimism not only serves as an essential emotional link within the work but also reflects Dickens's profound insight into the complexity of human nature. Innovatively situating Micawber's optimism within the fr amework of social class mobility and individual resistance against fate, this paper reveals its transcendent significance beyond the limitations of its time. The results demonstrate that Micawber's character not only provides an authentic depiction of the lives of underprivileged people in 19th-century Britain but also offers modern readers philosophical reflections on maintaining hope in adversity, thereby enriching the understanding of thematic concerns in Dickens's works.Key words:Mr. Micawber; Optimism Spirit; Dickens; Social Class Mobility; Adversity And Hope
