西风颂赏析(中英文)
哦，你又把有翅的种籽 凌空运送到他们黑暗的越冬床圃； 仿佛是一具具疆卧在坟墓里的尸体， 他们将分别蛰伏，冷落而又凄凉， 直到阳春你蔚蓝的姐妹向梦中的大地 吹响她嘹亮的号角（如同牧放群羊， 驱送香甜的花蕾到空气中觅食就饮）
With living hues and odours plain and hill: Wild Spirit, which art moving everywhere; Destroyer and preserver; hear, oh hear! 给高山平原注满生命的色彩和芬芳。 不羁的精灵，你啊，你到处运行； 你破坏，你也保存，听，哦，听！
Of the dying year, to which this closing night Will be the dome of a vast sepulchre, Vaulted with all thy congregated might Of vapours, from whose solid atmosphere Black rain, and fire, and hail will burst: oh hear! 你啊，垂死残年的挽歌，四合的夜幕 在你聚集的全部水汽威力的支撑下， 将构成他那庞大墓穴的拱形顶部。 从你那雄浑磅礴的氛围，将迸发 黑色的雨、火、冰雹；哦，听啊！
A dead leaf A swift cloud A wave
渴求斗争、期冀未来
Will take from both a deep, autumnal tone, Sweet though in sadness. Be thou, Spirit fierce, My spirit! Be thou me, impetuous one! 定能从森林和我同奏出深沉的秋 乐， 悲怆却又甘冽。但愿你勇猛的精 灵 竟是我的魂魄，我能成为剽悍的 你！
英国文学史《西风颂》Ode_to_the_West_Wind赏析
Apart from the alliteration it is also worth noting the capitalisation of West Wind in the poem. In typically Romantic fashion an abstract quality or aspect of Nature is personified and addressed in the poem, such that it appears divine or god-like, or as an expression of the divine

Percy_Bysshe_Shelly 英文介绍
Percy Bysshe Shelley(4 August 1792 – 8 July 1822) was one of the major English Romantic poets, and is regarded by some as among the finest lyric(抒情诗), as well as epic（史诗）, poets in the English language. A radical （激进）in his poetry as well as in his political and social views, Shelley did not see fame during his lifetime, but recognition for his poetry grew steadily following his death. Shelley was a key member of a close circle of visionary（空想主义的） poets and writers that included Lord Byron（拜伦）; Leigh Hunt; Thomas Love Peacock; and his own second wife, Mary Shelley, the author of Frankenstein.
Harriet Westbrook had been writing Shelley passionate letters threatening to kill herself because of her unhappiness at the school and at home. They were married in Edinburgh（爱丁堡） in 1812 at the age of sixteen. Percy was nineteen. Two years later he left her for Mary Godwin.

雪莱概述全名：珀西·比西·雪莱（Percy Bysshe Shelley）生卒：1792年8月4日-1822年7月8日一般译作雪莱，英国浪漫主义诗人，出生于英格兰萨塞克斯郡霍舍姆附近的沃恩汉，其祖父是受封的男爵，其父是议员。
生平8岁时雪莱就开始尝试写作诗歌，在伊顿的几年里，雪莱与其表兄托马斯合作了诗《流浪的犹太人》并出版了讽刺小说《扎斯特罗奇》。
12岁那年，雪莱进入伊顿公学，在那里他受到学长及教师的虐待，在当时的学校里这种现象十分普遍，但是雪莱并不象一般新生那样忍气吞声，他公然的反抗这些，而这种反抗的个性如火燃尽了他短暂的一生。
1810年，18岁的雪莱进入牛津大学，深受英国自由思想家休谟以及葛德文等人著作的影响，雪莱习惯性的将他关于上帝、政治和社会等问题的想法写成小册子散发给一些素不相识的人，并询问他们看后的意见。
1811年3月25日，由于散发《无神论的必然》，入学不足一年的雪莱被牛津大学开除。
雪莱的父亲是一位墨守成规的乡绅，他要求雪莱公开声明自己与《无神论的必然》毫无关系，而雪莱拒绝了，他因此被逐出家门。
被切断经济支持的雪莱在两个妹妹的帮助下过了一段独居的生活，这一时期，他认识了赫利埃特·委斯特布洛克，他妹妹的同学，一个小旅店店主的女儿。
雪莱与这个十六岁的少女仅见了几次面，她是可爱的，又是可怜的，当雪莱在威尔士看到她来信称自己在家中受父亲虐待后便毅然赶回伦敦，带着这一身世可怜且恋慕他的少女踏上私奔的道路。
他们在爱丁堡结婚，婚后住在约克。
1812年2月12日，同情被英国强行合并的爱尔兰的雪莱携妻子前往都柏林为了支持爱尔兰天主教徒的解放事业，在那里雪莱发表了慷慨激昂的演说，并散发《告爱尔兰人民书》以及《成立博爱主义者协会倡议书》。
在政治热情的驱使下，此后的一年里雪莱在英国各地旅行，散发他自由思想的小册子。
同年11月完成叙事长诗《麦布女王》，这首诗富于哲理，抨击宗教的伪善、封建阶级与劳动阶级当中存在的所有的不平等。

从《心之灵》探雪莱浪漫派柏拉图主义诗学观
从《心之灵》探雪莱浪漫派柏拉图主义诗学观盛 钰内容摘要：英国革命浪漫主义诗人珀西•雪莱(Percy Bysshe Shelley, 1792-1822)，一生写了数量众多的抒情诗歌。
本文所要探讨的抒情长诗《心之灵》（Epipsychidion），自1821年问世之际便在诗人的要求下被匿名发表，因其传达出微妙的对爱情的不贞和不确定性，被视为“雪莱诗歌中最难懂和最富有争议的”，为多数雪莱诗歌研究者所忽略。
本文在结合历史、社会语境的具体分析后认为，《心之灵》作为一首典型的“追寻罗曼斯”，诗人在其间隐晦地将自己对永恒真理与“美”的理念的向往，内化成为一种对理想化爱情的歌颂与追求，并试图将浪漫派柏拉图主义诗学思想通过诗歌的隐蔽话语之形式传达出来，是雪莱的爱情观与诗学理想的完美融合，值得我们重新审视和细细品读。

Title: Percy Bysshe Shelly’s Romantic-Platonic Poetics in EpipsychidionAbstract: Percy Bysshe Shelley was one of the more influential and radical English Romantic poets, and wrote great many lyric poems in his life. Epipsychidion is a major poetical work published in 1821 with a subtle feeling of faithlessness and uncertainty towards love. Anonymously at the very beginning of its publishing, the long poem was usually considered to be Shelly’s most obscure and controversial work. Through the analysis of Shelley’s quest-romance Epipsychidion in both the historical and social contexts, it can be disclosed that Shelly has internalized his poetic thoughts and understanding of eternal truth and beauty into his pursuit of the ideal love, which can also help him to present his Romantic-Platonic Poetics in a cryptic and abstract discourse mode.

Percy Bysshe Shelley
Percy Bysshe Shelley，1792年8月4日－1822年7月8日写作风格：浪漫主义写作手法：浪漫主义艺术特点：浪漫主义主要作品：《解放了的普罗米修斯》《钦契一家》《西风颂》《云雀颂》创作背景：作为雪莱最负盛名的作品，《西风颂》一诗主要是在1819年秋天意大利的文化名城佛罗伦萨构思完成的。
雪莱在该诗原注中，曾这样描述过当时的创作情况：“这首诗构思在弗罗伦萨附近阿诺河畔的一片树林里，主要部分也在那里写成。
那一天，孕育着一场暴风雨的暖和而令人振奋的大风，集合着常常倾泻下滂沱秋雨的云霭。
不出我的预料，雨从日落下起，狂风暴雨里夹带着冰雹，并且伴有阿尔卑斯山南地区所特有的气势宏伟的电闪雷鸣。
”由自然界的闪电雷鸣，诗人自然地联想到人世间的狂风暴雨。
1818年诗人受到英国当局的迫害，曾被无理地剥夺抚养亲生子女的权利，悲愤地离开祖国，飘流异乡。
就在此诗创作前夕，英国又发生了一场血腥的大屠杀事件。
1819年8月16日，曼彻斯特的8万工人为争取生活权利举行示威游行，英国政府竟派骑兵镇压，致使15名工人被杀，400人受伤。
身在异国的雪莱听此消息，愤怒地写下了《1815年的英国》、《虐政的假面游行》等诗，抗议当局的暴行，向劳动者发出战斗的号召。
《西风颂》正是在这样的背景下，由自然现象激发起创作灵感，借自然景物来抒情言志，表现诗人对黑暗的反抗，对光明的热切期盼和向往，也表现了对未来的坚定信念和希望。
作品感受：西风象征着一种无处不在的宇宙精神，一种打破旧世界，追求新世界的西风精神。
诗人以西风自喻，表达了自己对生活的信念和向旧世界宣战的决心。
这是后人给它定义的，不过根据当时的时代背景应该是当时的革命像西风一样战胜一切。
奥斯卡·王尔德（Oscar Wilde）写作风格：唯美主义哲学尖锐批判了当时的物质社会和庸人主义。
倡导人应该在生活中发现美、鉴别美、享受美，充分地展现个性。
写作手法：运用唯美主义哲学艺术特点：唯美主义主要作品：《道林·格雷的画像》《狱中记》创作背景：对于当时物质社会和庸人主义的批判作品感受：它通过一个悲剧故事向我们揭示了具体的表象的美（毫无疑问王尔德从未能真正深入到美的本质，他始终在现象----即表象----徘徊），这种美唯一只能存在与悲剧中，作者借亨利勋爵的口阐述了此种观点：“在存在过的每一件精美事物的背后都有着某种悲惨的东西，最卑微的花朵在饱受苦难之后终于开放……”，悲剧成了美的内涵，是美的灵魂----即使并非本质。

英国文学史《西风颂》Ode_to_the_West_Wind赏析
Will take from both a deep, autumnal tone, Sweet though in sadness. Be thou, Spirit fierce, My spirit! Be thou me, impetuous one!
Drive my dead thoughts over the universe Like withered leaves to quicken a new birth; And, by the incantation of this verse,
and decay, reaffirming the energy and vitality of the west

Thou, from whose unseen presence the leaves dead
Leaves here refer to trees and the wind-borne seeds, but the phrase also carries associations with paper (leaves from books?), the "withered leaves" (and "dead thoughts") referred to in stanza 5, which are driven across the universe by the power of the wind. The leaves here are dead and fall to the Earth, a recurrent theme in this stanza, but there they may give rise to new life.
Percy Bysshe Shelley雪莱(作品总)
《西风颂》共分五节。在第一节中，西风在陆地上以摧枯拉朽 之势横扫落叶，同时又把种子吹入泥土，点出了西风既是毁灭者 又是保护者的主题。第二节描写西风在空中扫荡残云，带出了暴 雨雷霆。在第三节中，西风在海上劈波斩浪，大显神威，搅醒了 沉睡的海洋。以上三节咏风，把西风在陆、空、海上的凛凛威风 写得酣畅淋漓。接着诗人笔锋一转，由咏物而抒怀，在第四节中 表达了自己愿随西风而舞的心愿，进而在第五节中发出了愿与西 风合而为一的澎湃激情。 在这首颂歌中，雪莱愿借西风之力，荡涤自己心中的沉暮之 气，激发自己的灵感，并将自己的诗名传播四方，唤醒昏昏然的 芸芸众生。《西风颂》的影响超越了文学、超越了国界，被革命 者当作自由与革命的颂歌。既是毁灭者又是保护者的西风无疑是 破坏旧世界、创造新世界的革命的极好象征，所向披靡、势不可 挡的西风则成了革命精神的化身，尤其是诗歌末尾的“风啊，冬 天来了，春天还会远吗？”，一直是革命乐观主义者的口号。

Ode to the West Wind: Notes
• Written in the Autumn, 1819, and published in the following year, this poem has become one of the most popular and best-known of Shelley's verses. In a note Shelley outlined the circumstances behind the poem's making:
Yellow, and black, and pale, and hectic red, Pestilence-stricken multitudes: O thou, Who chariotest to their dark wintry bed
The winged seeds, where they lie cold and low, Each like a corpse within its grave, until Thine azure sister of the Spring shall blow
Her clarion o'er the dreaming earth, and fill (Driving sweet buds like flocks to feed in air) With living hues and odours plain and hill:
Wild Spirit, which art moving everywhere; Destroyer and preserver; hear, O hear!
