摘　　要：剑桥夫妇教授F.R.利维斯和Q.D.利维斯是20世纪具有重大影响的狄更斯研究专家。他们的狄更斯批评经历了一个由贬而褒的过程:将狄更斯从一个广受欢迎、津津乐道于伤感煽情的"娱乐高手"擢升到与莎士比亚比肩的、既受大众欢迎又深刻严肃的最伟大的创造性艺术家之一。他们或褒或贬的狄更斯批评皆以道德判断即生活的严肃性为尺度。这种悖谬的批评根源于他们的文化观、社会观和人生观。我们只有将它置于批评家所在时代的语境中,才能发现利维斯遗产的价值与意义。F-R. Leavis and Q.D Leavis, the couple professor of Cambridge University, are experts on Dickens with significant impacts in the 20th century. Their criticism of Dickens underwent a process from depreciation to praise： Dickens was promoted by them from a popular and ＂great entertainer＂ who was preoccupied with sentimentalism to one of the greatest creative artists who was popular, but yet profound, serious, and bracketed with Shakespeare. Their criticism of Dickens, either praise or depreciation, is based on the yardstick of moral judgments, that is, the seriousness of life. This ambivalent criticism is rooted in their outlook on culture, society and life. The value and significance of Leavis＇s heritage can be found only when it is put in the context of their era.
