摘　　要：斯宾塞在创作中对废墟和纪念碑的关注一以贯之。废墟不仅指物理意义上的残留之物,更象征着人内心的堕落状态。建立在废墟之上的纪念碑亦具有物质和非物质双重属性,物质纪念碑被视为抵抗物理时间、延续世俗虚幻价值、妄图追求有死之不朽的象征,而非物质纪念碑则意在传递美德,探索精神之永恒。废墟与纪念碑的道德内涵构成斯宾塞在史诗中采用托寓罗曼司诗性书写不列颠民族史,建构以节制美德为核心的民族伦理叙事之基础。斯宾塞正是利用不列颠民族史书写和节制美德叙事为英帝国殖民征服扩张进行政治和道德辩护。Edmund Spenser's preoccupation with ruins and monuments remained consistent throughout his career. Ruins not only refer to physical remnants but also symbolize the inner state of human decline. Monuments built upon ruins possess both material and immaterial attributes. The material monument serves as a symbol resisting the passage of time, extending ephemeral worldly values and attempting to pursue a form of mortal immortality. In contrast, the immaterial monument aims to convey virtue and explore the eternal nature of the spirit. The moral connotations of ruins and monuments underpin Spencer's allegorical poetic writing of British national history in his epic, constructing a national ethical narrative centered on the virtue of temperance. Spencer utilizes the narrative of British national history and temperance as a political and moral justification for the colonial conquests and expansions of the English Empire.
