摘　　要：在斯威夫特戏拟17世纪末英格兰“书籍之战”的同名寓言中,现代派语文学家本特利明显是他最主要的讽刺目标。本文将回到斯威夫特与本特利参与的论战本身,考察二者在文本上的对话关系及其背后的思想传统和历史语境,来分析古代派批判本特利的原因。斯威夫特的文学作品与本特利的语文学论文体现出文艺复兴人文主义在发展中产生的分裂和对立,而本特利遭到古代派的合力击杀,除去文体上的区别,还与古今两派在政治与宗教上的对立息息相关。In Jonathan Swift’s satirical allegory“The Battle of the Books”,which parodies the literary conflicts of late 17th-cen-tury England,the modern philologist Richard Bentley clearly emerges as the primary target of his satire.This paper attempts to revis-it the actual controversy in which Swift and Bentley engaged,and examines their textual interactions and the underlying intellectual traditions and historical contexts to analyze the reasons for the Ancients’criticism of Bentley.Swift’s literary work and Bentley’s philological treatise reflect the conflict that arose as Renaissance humanism developed.Moreover,the Ancients’joint attack of Bent-ley was driven not only by stylistic differences but also by the political and religious divisions between the Ancients and the Moderns.
