摘　　要：英国维多利亚时期的女作家乔治.艾略特的长篇小说《弗洛斯河上的磨房》体现了作者的人本宗教思想。人本宗教思想认为人生是悲剧性的,人需要一种归属感,并需要建立一种新的人本的秩序,也就是道德的秩序。人本宗教提倡同情心、利他主义和自我牺牲,并通过它们实现人生和人类的至善。小说的女主人公麦琪是作者这一思想的实践者,她在成长的过程中,逐渐摒弃了利己主义,接纳了利他主义,形成并发展了同情心和自我牺牲,并通过它们实现了人生的至善,同时也促进了人性的升华,而对自己过去的眷恋和忠诚及其强烈的社会责任感是她坚持追求至善的动力。George Eliot＇s novel TheMill on the Floss exhibits its author＇s philosophical belief, the religion of humanity. The heroine Maggie is the practitioner of the rdigion of humanity. As a philosopher who believes in the religion of humanity, George Eliot thinks that the cosmos is absurd and indifferent, and life is tragic. People need to have a sense of belonging and find a human order, namely a moral order. The religion of God is actually the religion of humanity. The religion of humanity advocates sympathy, altruism and self-sacrifice. By practidng sympathy, altruism and self-sacrifice, man is pursuing the highest love or good. The practice of the religion of humanity contributes to the evolvement of mankind.
