Cry For The Lonely

James Baldwin is one of the most famous Contemporary American writers who is famed for three novels, they are Go Tell It on the Mountain, Another Country and Giovanni's Room. He made clear of the loneliness of human through their relations with culture and other people. Because of the flux of individual and society, the characters of his novel are outside of their culture, and because they can't get rid of the conceptions their societies imposing on them they are also encaged by social barriers. Lengthwise they lose their relations with traditional culture, and breadthwise they lose their relations with other people, and therefore they are captured by loneliness. When he is penetrating the lonely conditions of human, Baldwin is also working hard for seeking a solution for them. As a faithful believer of the God's love, Baldwin lay his account with the love which the Christianity preaches. He appealed to love for the lonely people with a minister's passion. To Baldwin, only this centuries-old culture of love is the common home of human, and only this spirit of love which claims that people all over the world are all brothers can melt the solid social barriers. Baldwin called people to convert to the home of love, to break loose social barriers bind by the strength of love, and thereby get rid of their loneliness.Baldwin bears a good name among literatus, he is eponymous with Ralph Alison. Chinese literates has already paid attention to him at the beginning of 1980s, however, by now the study of this writer in China is still at introduction. This article makes a study of Baldwins novels by analysing his three novels Go Tell It on the Mountain, Another Country, and Giovanni's Room, so as to call Chinese literates to attach importance on Baldwin, it is divided into two sections: "the lonely people" and "appeal to love".
