Abstract: Faulkner is regarded as one of America’s most influential modern novelists, and has unarguably become the main representative of American “South Literature”, as his works are closely related to the Southern society and Southern life which can be considered as Faulkner’s deep attachment to the South. The Sound and the Fury, the most favorite and successful novel of Faulkner, has fully reflected Faulkner’s deep affection to the South. In this novel, Faulkner shows us the Old South’s collapse after the Civil War by depicting the corruption of Family Compson. This article aims to explore Faulkner’s Southern Complex by analyzing four major characters in the novel the Sound and the Fury, so as to help readers to get a more profound and comprehensive understanding of the southern history and the essence of the southern novelists’ complicated emotions.
Key Words: The Sound and the Fury; Faulkner; Southern Complex

 从《喧哗与骚动》中的主要人物看福克纳的南方情结
摘  要: 福克纳被公认为美国最具影响力的现代作家之一，并且因其作品与南方社会和南方生活息息相关而毫无争议地成为了美国“南方文学”的主要代表。《喧哗与骚动》是福克纳本人最喜爱也是最成功的一部作品，它充分地体现了福克纳对于南方的深厚感情。在这部小说中，福克纳通过描写康普森家族的没落向我们展现了内战以后旧南方的瓦解。本论文旨在通过分析小说中的四位主人公来探索福克纳的南方情结，从而帮助读者更加深刻全面地了解美国南方的史实以及美国南方作家复杂感情的精髓。
