For a long time,the study of Nabokov's works in academic circles often paid insufficient attention to their " non-moral ".This "non-moral" tendency is an important manifestation of Nabokov's ideological content,and it is also one of the issues worth studying.The "non-moral" of Nabokov's works are mainly manifested in self-indulgence of personal desires and illusions;disregard and breakthrough of incest taboos that social morality does not allow;Selfish personalism.Nabokov's works have a dual perspective on the presentation of " non-moral " and post-modern expressions of virtual readers;the description of the plots and characters has obvious uncertainties;the author does not appear in his works.Infiltrate his thoughts into the characters of the work.The " non-moral" tendency in Nabokov's works reflects a strong subversive nature.In art,he uses metafiction,parody,gameplay,and black humor to subvert realist writing techniques;At the same time,he advocates individual independence,opposes the suppression of the individual to the individual,and reflects a strong individual supreme morality.In ethical criticism,he defends traditional morality by defending pure morality and provoking traditional morality.The " non-moral”tendency of Nabokov's works does not mean that the author is indifferent to morality.He mainly opposes the shackles of traditional morality on people,especially the oppression of individuals,and opposes the task of moral education in literary works.Advocating the use of individual,pure morality against collective,traditional social ethics.This also reflects to some extent the limitations of Nabokov's " non-moral " overemphasizing individual morality and pure morality,and placing him above the moral and social morale of groups,and also making individual morality and purity.Morality becomes a wood without a source,and a passive water.
