摘  要:《专使》的关注点是对人性中"审美"与"道德"两个核心追求之间的联结和冲突的深刻思考。在这部作品中,詹姆斯试图超越传统与现代、审美与道德、欧洲与美国等等的二元对立;他从普遍人性的高度,洞析了现代西方文化与社会的危机,同时也在想象一个未来的、理想的社会和文化的可能图景。詹姆斯的伦理关怀,在当时英国和欧陆社会中宗教的式微和个体的主体性意识据主导地位的背景下,试图从人性的本来出发去构建一个新道德和新文化。这也使他与同时代的许多知识分子一样,成为社会和民族的"良心"。The focus of The Ambassadors is on the natural attmlty, as well as inevitable conflict, between the aesthetic and moral impulses within human nature. By transcending such conventional dichotomies as modernity vs. tradition, aesthetics vs. morality and, finally, America vs. Europe, James, in The Ambassadors, has projected his vision of an ideal form of cultural and social life in response to his profound diagnosis of the crisis of Man in the Age of Modernity. Against the background in which Edwardian Britain witnesses the decline of religion and the assertiveness of various forms of individual subjectivity, James's moral and ethical ideas made him a prominent member of the intellectuals of his time who sought to forge a new conscience for their countries and societies.
