PAGE\*MERGEFORMAT13RevealtheReasonofSocialCorruptionthroughVanityFair通过名利场揭示社会腐败的原因摘要《名利场》是19世纪著名批判现实主义家威廉·梅克皮斯·萨克雷的代表作。小说中塑造了各式各样的人物，自私和虚伪充斥整篇小说。通过分析人物，我们可以得出这样的结论：19世纪的英国社会已经腐败。本文认为社会腐败首先源于社会经济的迅速发展，巨大的财富是滋生社会腐败的物质基础。其次在于社会主流文化的导向作用，健康向上的主流社会文化能够有效抑制负面文化的滋生。第三是社会生活中人们的精神态度，这里的精神态度指的是人们对主流文化的主观能动作用，即人们是否推存社会主流文化。关键词：萨克雷社会腐化主流文化【Abstract】RevealtheReasonofSocialCorruptionthroughVanityFairVanityFairisthefamouscriticalrealismmasterpieceofWilliamMakepeaceThackerayinthe19thcentury.Thackeraycreatedawidevarietyofcharactersinthenovel;mostofthepeoplewerefullofselfishandhypocrisy.Byanalyzingthecharacters,wecancometothisconclusion:Thereasonsofthesocietycorrupted.Therearethreereasonsforsocialcorruption.Firstly,rapiddevelopmentofsocialeconomy,greatwealthisthematerialbasisforsocialcorruption.Thesecondone,thedirectionofmainstreamculture,ahealthymainstreamculturecaneffectivelyinhibitthenegativeculture.Thelastone,people’smentalstateinsociallife,mentalstateherereferstopeople’ssubjectivedynamic-roletothemainstreamculture,namelywhetherpeoplefollowthemainstreamculture.【KeyWords】:Thackeray;socialcorruption;mainstreamcultureTableofContentsINTRODUCTION....................................................................................................4Chapter1SOCIALCORRUPTIONSTUDYOFVANITYFAIRTHROUGHMATERIALDEVELOPMENTANDSOCIALMAINSTREAMCULTURE...................................................................................................................51.1TheEffectofMaterialDevelopmenttoSocialCorruption....................................................................................................................51.2TheEffectofSocialMainstreamCulturetoSocialCorruption....................................................................................................................5Chapter2SOCIALCORRUPTINSTUDYOFVANTIYFAIRTHROUGHPEOPLE’SMENTALSTATE.....................................................
