REINTERPRET THE RED BADGE OF COURAGE FROM AN ECOLOGICAL HUMANISM PERSPECTIVE

As a representative work of Stephen Crane, the Red Badge of Courage is written against the romantic color of glorifying war and praising heroes. In the work, Crane does not spend too much ink about the battle scene of war, instead pays more attention to the relationship between war and ecology. From the perspective of ecological humanism, Crane reinterprets the meaning of the war in the work, revealing the ruthless harm caused by the war to human natural ecology, social ecology and human existence, expressing his yearning for harmonious ecology between man and nature, and embodying his thought of ecological humanism.
