摘要
19 世纪末在欧洲出现的唯美主义思潮是最直接提倡“为艺术而艺术”的文艺思潮。奥斯卡·王尔德是唯美主义的最积极鼓吹者, 也是唯美主义文学的身体力行者。奥斯卡·王尔德的长篇小说《道连·格雷的画像》从故事情节、人物塑造和叙事手法等方面,反映出王尔德唯美主义文艺观的丰富内涵。王尔德并不是一个彻底的唯美主义者,一方面他希望建立美的乌托邦,使美独立于功利和道德说教,希望人们通过对至高无上的美的膜拜得到救赎。另一方面他的大部分作品中自始至终蕴含对社会人生的思考与关怀以及对当时维多利亚虚伪道德的揭露与批判。他的美学思想与创作实践中的确存在着矛盾性,然而并不能说因此而削弱了其艺术思想及作品的价值。通过对其美学探索历程的深入分析,我们可以更为准确了解及和评价王尔德及当时的唯美主义。

Abstract
The trend of thought in aestheticism that advocated the idea of “art for art’s sake” which appeared at the end of the 19th century .Wilde was the most active advocator and also the earnest practitioner of aestheticism, based on textual analysis of the plot, characterization, and narrative method of Wilde’s novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, explores the connotative meaning and implications of Aestheticism advocated by Wilde for literary creation. Wilde is not a downright aesthete. While making his effort to separate art from utilitarianism and preaching of morality and help people seek redemption by paying homage to the ultimate beauty, he also made attempts to discuss life and morality and reminded people of the hypocrisy of Victorian morality and the flimsy illusion of decent virtues in most of his literary creation. Although there are contradictions in his aesthetic theory and artworks, we can not say the value of his exploration and creation is hereby impaired. Through the analysis of his pursuit of aestheticism in depth, we will understand and evaluate Wilde and the contemporary aestheticism.
Key words: Wilde; aestheticism; The Picture of Dorian Gray
