乔治·奥威尔曾对以“奥登诗人团体”为代表的英国左派文人知识分子提出严厉批评。然而,该团体中的诗人斯蒂芬·斯彭德后来在对奥威尔《向加泰罗尼亚致敬》的评论中却高度赞扬他“信仰真理和得体的品质”。可以通过分析这一典型批评文本对“奥登诗人团体”与奥威尔的矛盾关系进行探讨,并以此考察该文学团体的思想变迁。 George Orwell once harshly criticized the British left-wing intellectuals represented by “Oden Group of Poets.” However, Stephen Spender, the poet in the group, later praised Orwell for his “faith in truth and decency” in his commentary on Orwell’s “Salute to Catalonia.” Through the analysis of this typical criticism, this paper explores the contradictory relationship between “Orden poet ” and Orwell and examines the change of thought of this literary group.
