对比《密西西比河上的生活》与《哈克贝利费恩历险记》中河流的不同主题

郑金力

The theme in the novel ”The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn “is relatively profound and more realistic. When Huck follows the Mississippi River down the river, he also comes into contact with the Mississippi River on the other side, which is seriously affected by slavery. He saw the cruelty and injustice of slavery and revealed the dark face of the Mississippi River. Huck's feelings for the Mississippi River were both yearning and dreaded.

”Life on the Mississippi “is more about the free will to conquer nature.
"Life on the Mississippi " is a combination of freedom and romance, and the attitude of the Mississippi River is appreciated, so the tone of the full text is optimistic and cheerful.
