Abstract

The Abagon portrayed in "The Stingy Man" can be considered a highly visible, typical and popular image of a miser in foreign literature. Under the pre-determined tendency of the initial development of capitalism, in the complex contradiction with others, the image of Abagon as a miserly money-grubber becomes three-dimensional and vivid, and under the aesthetic perspective, he exists in the form of an aesthetic category of weird and absurd "ugly". This paper will understand The Stingy Man from the perspective of Hegel's study of the aesthetics of comedy, and analyze the aesthetic value of Abagon as a typical comic figure, in order to realize the ultimate aesthetic purpose of entertainment to the sublime transformation of edification.
