Abstract: Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, one of Mark Twain’s “Mississippi Trilogy”, can be acclaimed as an ecological novel as far as its rich ecological thoughts and insightful reflection on ecological crises are concerned. Based on Lu Shu-yuan’s “Ecological Trichotomy”, this essay is about to excavate ecological ideas manifested in Adventures of Huckleberry Finn from three dimensions of Lu’s trichotomic ecology, namely natural ecology, social ecology, and spiritual ecology, and examine the internal connections between Huckleberry Finn’s rebellion against society and ecological thoughts contained in this novel.

Keywords: Ecocriticism, Ecological Trichotomy, Rebellion, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
