Abstract

       The personal character not only contains what they do, not also contains how to do. So the personal character plays an important role in one’s life. Falstaff is the most famous figure in the Henry Ⅳ and The Merry Wives of Windsor. What are the characters of Falstaff? Because of the diversities of Falstaff’s character, different people hold different views on the character of Falstaff. In order to make people know Falstaff more clearly and objectively, this paper seeks to find out characters of Falstaff from several aspects according to Liu Zaifu’s theory. The first part is to compare King Lear with Falstaff to find out the special character of Falstaff. The second part is to discuss the characters of Falstaff. It is easy to find that there are complication and romanticism and realistic meanings existed in the character of Falstaff. The third part is to find out the causes of shaping the character of Falstaff and get all-side recognition.

摘　 要
     恩格斯说：“人物的性格不仅表现在他做什么，而且表现在他怎样做”。福斯塔夫是莎士比亚的历史剧《亨利四世》和喜剧《温莎的风流娘们儿》中著名的喜剧人物, 也是世界戏剧史上最令人难忘的艺术形象之一，那么福斯塔夫到底有着什么样的性格呢？历来的评论家对他性格的分析有着不同的意见，但往往是要么太偏激要么太主观，因此本文根据刘再复《性格组合论》的相关理论探讨福斯塔夫的性格。第一部分，通过福斯塔夫和李尔王的对比，寻找两个人性格的异同点，从而凸现出福斯塔夫的性格；第二部分，具体探讨福斯塔夫的性格，主要是从福斯塔夫性格的复杂性，浪漫性和现实性入手；第三部分，追溯福斯塔夫性格形成的原因，一方面，从骑士的历史背景及福斯塔夫的社会地位着手；另一方面，从人自身的心理因素着手。从而让人们看到一个全新的福斯塔夫，既生动逼真又客观合乎情理。
