摘　　要：炼金术是西方文学重要的创作资源之一,其独特魅力不仅吸引着成人,也吸引着儿童。炼金术的神秘魔幻色彩激发了儿童的阅读兴趣,点金石、咬尾蛇等意象符号使得习惯具象思维的儿童把握炼金术内涵成为可能,复杂的哲学内涵与科学联结,为作家创作提供了丰富多样的资源选择。炼金术的加入一方面为儿童文学渲染了一层奇幻底色,成为吸引读者的畅销策略;另一方面,其蕴含的深刻哲学思考与折射的人性观照,拓展了儿童文学的内容深度。Alchemy is one of the important creative resources in western literature.Its unique charm attracts not only adults but also children.The mystical magic style of alchemy arouses children’s interests in reading.Image symbols such as goldstone and Ouroboros make it possible for children who are used to thinking in terms of images to grasp the connotation of alchemy.The complex combination of rich philosophical connotation and scientific knowledge provides varied choices of resources for writers’creation.The addition of alchemy,on the one hand,has created a magical atmosphere for children’s literature,which has become a best-selling strategy to attract readers;on the other hand,its profound philosophical thinking and reflection of human nature have expanded the depth of the content of children’s literature.
