Abstract

Rider Haggard is sometimes thought of as a writer who offered thrilling incidents, racial stereotypes and imperialist propaganda, or as a naive myth-maker, unlocking his subconscious and reaching out to ours. Concentrating on "Eric Brighteyes" (1891) and "Narda the Lily" (1892), this paper argues that Haggard was far more nuanced and self-aware than is commonly supposed. The two novels explore his misgivings about the warrior ethic and competitive heroic societies.
哈格德对英雄的质疑
莱德·哈格德有时被认为是一个提供激动人心的事件、种族刻板印象和帝国主义宣传的作家,或者是一个天真的神话制造者,打开他的潜意识,接触我们的潜意识。本文以《埃里克·布里特耶斯》(1891年)和《百合娜尔达》(1892年)为重点,论证了哈格德远比人们通常认为的更加细致入微和有自知之明。这两部小说探讨了他对战士伦理和竞争的英雄社会的担忧。
