哈罗德·品特早期作品涵义十分隐晦,看似日常的对话与场景实则富含深意,寄托了其对于时政的见解与批评,体现了其反战、反法西斯的强烈态度。这一点在《生日晚会》一剧中表现尤为明显,剧中两位盖世太保式的人物以及富有象征意义的“敲门声”巧妙地影射了法西斯主义的幽灵,以及品特的反感与抵抗。 Harold Pinter’s early works have very obscure implications. Seemingly daily dialogues and scenes are, however, actually profound and implicit in their opinions and criticisms of current affairs, which reflect their strong anti-war and anti-fascist stance. This is particularly evident in the “Birthday Party” drama, where two of the Galapagos and the symbolic “knock-ons” cleverly mirror the specter of fascism and Pinter’s disgust and resistance .
