Abstract

 Among Somerset Maugham’s number of works, the novel “The moon and Sixpense” is a masterpiece. It depicts both positive and negative features of human nature. In a critical and ironical tone, the novel highlights the contradictory conflicts in one person, the reality and the ideal by manifesting the contradiction  to the human nature as well as his exploration of internal complexity in human life. This paper is aimed at analyzing the role of Pragmalinguistics in revealing the contradiction and complexity of humanity, which helps to understand the sole of the novel from a deeper level.
