阿特伍德的《羚羊与秧鸡》以其灰暗的笔调描绘了一幅距离我们并不遥远的未来世界中令人触目惊心的末日景象,该小说被评论界公认为是一部典型“反乌托邦”的小说。违背科技伦理的科技成果的滥用而导致的人类灭绝是该小说的主线。缺乏伦理道德的科技发展将人类带入社会病态的境地,唯有构建现代科技伦理才能给人类社会带来光明。 Attwood’s Antelope and Corncrack, in its gloomy tone, portrayed a startlingly apocalyptic end of the world in the future not far from us, regarded by the critics as a classic “anti-utopia ”Novel. Humanity extinction caused by the abuse of scientific and technological achievements that violate the ethics of science and technology is the main line of the novel. The lack of ethical and moral development of science and technology will bring human beings into the social morbid situation, only to build a modern science and technology ethics in order to bring to the light of human society.
