“他是一位有德性的人。”这是特里林对乔治·奥威尔的经典评价,为奥威尔在美国的经典化起了关键作用。本文经过详细分析《乔治·奥威尔与真相的政治》一文,发现特里林旨在提出“真相的政治”这一方针,号召20世纪50年代初期陷入思想困境的美国自由主义知识分子以此作为行动方向。“真相的政治”与“观念的政治”相对,是文化政治而非激进政治,主张以文学为主要武器,通过“现代自我”揭露“谎言”的方式与社会“囚笼”的压迫者进行对抗,从而唤醒公共意识,促进社会文化的均衡发展。“真相的政治”是特里林对自由主义的想象和重新界定,具有重要的思想史意义。

The ”truth of politics“ is opposite to the concept of ”politics“ and is cultural politics rather than radical politics. It advocates using literature as the main weapon and exposing ”lies “ through ”modern self The “cage” oppression opponents, so as to awaken public awareness and promote the balanced development of social and cultural. Truth’s Politics is Trilling’s vision and redefinition of liberalism, which is of great historical significance.
