摘要： 石黑一雄在长篇小说《长日留痕》中，通过主人公史蒂文斯的管家信念、错误的尊严观与悲剧人生，昭示了洞察力与情感对于构成人的尊严的重要性。史蒂文斯相信，做一名伟大管家意味着无条件地服从主人以及绝对的情感克制，但他不知道的是这种职业信念恰恰让他丧失了尊严的基础。以西方伦理学史中的尊严观念的演变为参照，以史蒂文斯的职业迷信为研究对象，探索石黑一雄在西方古典尊严观念与现代尊严观念之间的调和。

Abstract: Kazuo Ishiguro， in his novel The Remains of the Day， through the protagonist Stevens's false faith in butlership and dignity as well as his tragic life， suggests the significance of insight and sensibility in forming one's dignity. Stevens believes that being a great butler means unconditional submissiveness to his master and absolute emotional restraint， but he does not know this belief undermines the basis of dignity. With the reference of the transformation of the “dignity” concept in the history of Western ethics， Kazuo Ishiguro's reconciliation between the classic view of dignity and the modern view of dignity is explored by analyzing Stevens's professional superstition.

Key words: Kazuo Ishiguro; The Remains of the Day; human dignity
