摘　　要：苏格兰作家约翰•高尔特的《市长》(1822)用回忆录的方式,记录了苏格兰小镇的发展历程。鲍基担任市长(也可译作镇长)期间,古德镇居民生活水平不断提高,基础设施日益完善,民主体制纠正了市议员的腐败之风。《市长》以全景式的图画展现了苏格兰共同体的形塑过程,而苏格兰共同体的形塑与小镇居民共同信守的正义理念密切相关。本文以亚当•斯密的《道德情操论》为基础,着力阐释亚当•斯密正义理念与《市长》中苏格兰共同体形塑的关系。鲍基市长是正义理念的化身,他用谨慎、同情和仁慈的美德,把古德镇凝聚成一个有机共同体,引领民众在苏格兰的乡村变革中成长。John Galt’s The Provost(1822)is an account of the development of a Scottish town.As the provost(head of a town)of Gudetown,Pawkie led the townspeople to improve the living conditions,to enhance the infrastructure and to punish the corruption of the MPs.The Provost offers a panoramic view of the construction of the Scottish community,which is closely related to the townspeople’s firm belief in justice.In light of Adam Smith’s The Theory of Moral Sentiments,this paper aims at eliciting the relationship between Adam Smith’s theory on justice and the construction of the Scottish community.Pawkie is deemed as the spokesman of justice.Endowed with prudence,sympathy and benevolence,Pawkie suceeds in building Gudetown into an organic community and leading the townspeople to enjoy the profits of the rural reform in Scotland.
