另一个著名例子是J.D.塞林格的《麦田里的守望者》。

Another notable example is The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger.

文学中另一个以悲剧告终的孤独主题例子是赫尔曼·梅尔维尔的《白鲸》。

Yet another example of isolation in literature, and one that ends badly, is Herman Melville's Moby-Dick.

在这部小说中，阿哈布船长对白鲸执迷而充满复仇心的追寻导致了他的孤独。

In this novel, Captain Ahab's obsessive, vengeful quest for the white whale leads to his isolation.

这种执念使他与船员以及自己的人性渐行渐远，并最终将他与船推向毁灭性的结局。

This obsession distances him from his crew as well as his humanity, and it propels him and his ship toward a destructive end.

不过，文学中对孤独的描绘并不总是负面的。

However, the portrayal of isolation in literature is not always negative.

在夏洛蒂·勃朗特的《简·爱》中，同名主人公在她人生的不同阶段经历了孤独。

In Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre, the titular character experiences isolation at various points in her life.

例如，被送去与刻薄的亲戚同住时，以及后来在寄宿学校感到孤单时。

For example, when she is sent to live with her unkind relatives, and later when she experiences loneliness at a boarding school.

但简在面对孤独时展现出韧性，变得坚强而独立。

But Jane is resilient in the face of isolation, becoming strong and independent.
