The Ambiguous Expression of the Idyll Theme in Milan Kundera's Novels

摘要

Milan Kundera, a French writer of Czech origin, occupies a place in the literary world of the 20th century with his poetic words and philosophical thoughts. Throughout Kundera's works, the interlaced variations of many themes constitute the tone of the novel. The same theme appears in different backgrounds, practiced by different characters, and then conveys the value connotation, forming a complex and ambiguous interpretation space. The purpose of this paper is to focus on the special concept of "idyll", and to interpret the two different images of "innocence" and "experience" through intensive textual reading, showing the important revelation of politics, life and philosophy under the two prospects.
