The Period of Enlightenment (the end of 17th century-the middle of 18th century)5. English Romanticism (1798-1832)6. The Age of Realism (1830s-1918)7. The Age of Modernism (1918-1945)8. Contemporary British Literature (1945- )Unit 1 Geoffrey Chaucer (1343-1400)Lived in the 14th centuryThe greatest writer in this century and the 14th century is usually known as “The Age of Chaucer”Was acclaimed as “father of English poetry”◆Literary Career1. From 1360 to 1372 (French period)Translations: The Romance of the Rose2. From 1373 to 1386 (Italian period)Major works: 1380 The Parliament of Fowls《百鸟议会》1384 The House of Fame《声誉之堂》1385 Troilus and Criseyde《特洛勒斯与克丽西德》1386 The Book of the Duchess《公爵夫人之书》The Legend of Good Women3. From 1387 to 1400 (English period)Masterpiece: The Canterbury Tales1700lines—about half of Chaucer’s entire literary productionThe whole poem is a collection of tales and stories strung together according to a simple plan, which shows the influence of Boccaccio’s Decameron.◆The PrologueThe Prologue is a splendid masterpiece of realistic portrayal, the first of its kind in the history of English literature. We see the whole cavalcade, as it rides out on a fine spring morning.The pilgrims are people from various parts of England, representatives of various walks of life and social groups, with various interests, tastes and predilections. (preference)◆CommentsChaucer makes English the language of literature. The language he used, known as Middle English now, is vivid and smooth.Chaucer’s contribution to English poetry i s that he greatly enriched the rhyme schemes by introducing from France the rhymed stanzas of various types.◆TermsIambic Pentameter:五音步抑扬格It refers to a poetic line consisting of metrical foot in poetry consisting of one short or unstressed syllable followed by one long or stressed syllable.Heroic Couplet:英雄双韵体It refers to a pair of rhymed iambic pentameter lines. A stanza composed of two heroic couplets is called a heroic quatrain.Alliteration:头韵It refers to the repetition of similar sounds, usually consonants or consonant clusters, in a group of words. Sometimes, the term is limited to the repetition of initial consonant sounds.Unit 2 William Shakespeare (1564-1616)William Shakespeare is the most popular and most widely respected writer in all English literature. Comedy Tragedy Historical Play38/39 plays; 154 sonnets; 2 narrative poemsTwo tragedies:Romeo and Juliet;The Life and Death of Julius Caesar 《凯撒大帝》Great tragedies: Hamlet, Prince of DenmarkThe two long narrative poems Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece were respectively published in 1593 and 1594.His Sonnets were published in 1609. They are divided into two groups. One is about the conflicted lover for a young man of superior beauty and the other about the uncontrollable love for a mysterious “dark lady” of irresistible beauty.◆HamletHamlet is considered to be the summit of Shakespeare’s art.Hamlet i s the profoundest expression of Shakespeare’s humanism and his criticism of contemporary life. Major Characters:Hamlet, the Ghost, Claudius, Gertrude, Rosencrantz, Guildenstern, Polonius, Ophelia, Laertes◆Some of the Problems Troubling Hamlet1. His father was murdered by his uncle who has become the king of Denmark.2. His mother was married to his uncle right after his father’s death.3. The Ghost of his father urged him to seek revenge for his murder, but Hamlet was not quite sure that the ghost was h is father’s spirit, for he feared it might have been a devil sent to torment him.4. His former friends Rosencrantz & Guildenstern were dispatched by the king to spy on him (A betrayal of friendship! As a humanist he attached great importance to friendship).5. His girl friend Ophelia was sent as a tool to find out whether or not he was really mad (A betrayal of love!).◆What do you learn about Hamlet’s mental conflict and character through this soliloquy独白? Further AnalysisIn this soliloquy, Hamlet is detached, reflective, analytic and moral. His thoughts were philosophical rather than practical; his concerns were on the nature of things rather than any specific plans for actions; his feelings were of a deep sorrow over the injustice and vanity, “a sea of troubles” which brought pains into human life. His melancholy and procrastination are also revealed. Here he is pondering on the question of life and death.He is thinking of committing suicide. But he hesitates for he doubts whether death can give him rest and peace. Besides, he is not sure whether the world of death would be better than this one. He gives the reasons why he wants to commit suicide.Apart from his personal revenge (He hasn’t mentioned it in this soliloquy), he cannot bear the social injustices and grievances. He is conscious of his own weakness of thinking too much which makes him dilatory, allowing many opportunities to slip away.◆SonnetA fourteen-line lyric poem, usually written in rhymed iambic pentameter.It includes three Quatrains and a concluding Couplet, with rhyme scheme abab cdcd efef gg.Each quatrain deals with a different aspect of the subject and the couplet either summarizes the theme or makes a final comment.Unit 3 Francis Bacon (1561-1626)◆Literary CareerBacon’s works ma y be divided into three classes: the philosophical, the literary, and the professional works.1. Philosophical works:1605 The Advancement of Learning (in English)1620 Novum Organum (in Latin)2. Literary works:1597-1625 Essays(Of Truth, Of Death, Of Revenge, Of Friendship)3. Professional works:1630 Maxims of the Law1642 Reading on the Statue of Uses◆Of Studies“Of Studies” is the one of the shortest, but probably the most popular of Bacon’s 58 essays.1. It analyzes the major functions of studies and the different ways of pursuing studies by different people.2. It probes into the effects studies have upon human character.3. Forceful and persuasive, compact and precise, the essay best reveals Bacon’s mature attitude towards learning.The essay starts with the general use and benefits of studies, namely, delight, ornament and ability.Then it goes on to relate studies to experience and reveals the mutual-promoting relation between them.Bacon also points out that studies need to be treated properly and conducted in right ways.By doing it right, he reckons, our characters shall be improved in different aspects.The whole essay seems to be a manifesto of the Renaissance and a declaration of the beginning of the coming Age of Reason.◆CommentsBacon was a representative of the Renaissance in England.He was a prominent philosopher and scientist as well as an essayist.He contributed to the foundation of modern science with his scientific way of thinking and fresh observation rather than authority as a basis for knowledge.Although he wrote much in Latin, he was capable of varied and beautiful styles in English and there is a peculiar magnificence and picturesque-ness in much of his writing.Many of his sentences in Essays have assumed almost the character of proverbs.His Essays is the first example of that genre in English literature, which has become a landmark in the development of English prose.Unit 7 Jane Austen (1775-1817)◆Main works:《理智与情感》(Sense and Sensibility,1811)《傲慢与偏见》(Pride and Prejudice,1813)《曼斯菲尔德庄园》(Mansfield Park,1814)《爱玛》(Emma,1816)《诺桑觉寺》(Northanger Abby,1818)《劝导》(Persuasion,1818)◆Pride and PrejudiceThe whole story portrays life in the genteel rural society of the day, and focuses on the relationship between Elizabeth Bennet and the haughty Darcy. Their relationship begins with the initial misunderstandings and ends with their mutual enlightenment. Finally they learn that their first impressions, based on pride and prejudice, were incorrect.◆Major Characters:Mr. Bennet+Mrs. Bennet五个女儿:Jane(Mr. Bingley); Elizabeth(Mr. Darcy); Mary; Kitty; Lydia(Mr. Wickham)Lady Catherine(Mr. Darcy的姨妈)Charlotte(Elizabeth最好的朋友,和Mr. Collins结婚)◆人物分析Mr. BennettHe is a queer, sarcastic man.Being the father of 5 daughters, he is destined the responsibility for the future of them. But when a prospective catch comes, he keeps reserved and calm; he even teases his wife inconsiderately when she urges him to visit the new comer.This and his other oddities can only be accounted for that Mr. Bennett is regretful for his own marriage and thus becomes hesitant about his daughters. But he is now at a loss to help it, since there is such a gossipy and garrulous(唠叨,爱管闲事的)wife in the house. That is why he rarely talks to his wife as an equal and prefers to have the privacy of his library, his country and his self-entertaining irony.After all, he is a lively character.Mrs. BennettShe fails by all relevant criteria.empty-headed, snobbish, inconsiderate, ill-mannered, vulgar, foolish…She has no feminine charm.As a parent, she is partly responsible for the superficial characters of her 3 younger daughters. Lydia is clearly in her mother’s mold.She thinks of marriage mainly as a means of social and economic advancement.JaneThe eldest of the Bennett girls has two distinguishing characteristics: she is very beautiful, and she is very unperceptive, or, she is so pure of heart and mind that she will go to any length not to believe evil of any one.On the most superficial level, the plot is the story of the romance of Jane and Bingley; but actually their story provides only the occasion for the real interest of the novel.Jane and Bingley exhibit neither pride nor prejudice. The themes of social status arise only indirectly in their case. Choice for them is never problematic. Their function rather is to show how people can suffer from the pride and prejudice.◆CharacterizationWhich of these methods does Jane Austen employ? Cite examples to illustrate your choices.1. Physical description of a character by the author;2. A description of another character;3. The use of dialogue or conversation;4. An explanation of a character’s inner thoughts;5. The behavior or actions of a character;6. The reactions of a character to another character or to a situation◆Theme: Love and MarriageIn this novel, Austen provides 4 different marriages. They are utilitarian marriage, sex-oriented marriage, moral marriage and perfect marriage.It is analyzed that one’s character reflects his/her marriage and attitudes towards love and social mores are reflected in their marriage’s formation.The conditions for love and marriage: material wealth and social position; beauty and passion; true love with consideration of the partner’s personal virtue as well as his economic and social status.It is wrong to marry just for money, or beauty; it is also wrong to marry without it.Elizabeth thinks she is happier than Jane.◆Writing StyleIn style, Austen is a classicism advocate, upholding those traditional ideas of order, reason, and gracefulness in novel writing. She writes within a very narrow sphere. The subject matter, the character range, the social setting and plot are all restricted to the provincial life of the late 18th century England, concerning three or four landed gentry families with their daily routine life.Irony(反讽)A contrast or an incongruity between what is stated and what is really meant, or between what is expected to happen and what actually happens.“It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.”In this statement, Austen cleverly illustrates 3 points: she declares that the main subject of the novel will be courtship and marriage; she has established the humorous tone of the novel by taking a simple subject to elaborate and to speak intelligently of; she has prepared the reader for a chase in the novel of either a husband in search of a wife, or a woman in pursuit of a husband.The first line also defines Jane’s book as a piece of literature that connects itself to the 18th century period, in which, the emphasis on man in social environment was important, and the use of satire and wit was a common form of the 18th century literature.Unit 8 Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822)◆Ode (颂)1. It refers to a complex and often lengthy lyric poem, written in a dignified formal style on some lofty or serious subject.2. Odes are often written for a special occasion, to honor a person or a season or to commemorate an event.◆Ode to the West Wind1. Talking about the poem, Shelley says that it was his emotional response to a strong hailstorm in which he happened to be swallowed one autumn evening in 1819 on the Arno near Florence.2. Shelley sees, in the storm of the natural world, an apt metaphor for the storm of revolution in the human world. The poet had been feeling depressed at the triumph of the reactionary Holy Alliance over Napoleon and the French Revolution and was emphatic in his forecast that the storm of revolution would make a powerful comeback yet.◆The Form1. This ode contains five 14-lined stanzas of iambic pentameter, each containing four tercets and a closing couplet.2. The rhyme scheme in each part follows a pattern known as terza rima, the three-line rhyme scheme first used by Dante in his well-known The Divine Comedy.3.In the three-line terza rima stanza, the first and third lines rhyme, and the middle line does not; then the end sound of that middle line is employed as the rhyme for the first and third lines in the next stanza. The final couplet rhymes with the middle line of the last three-line stanza.4. Thus, each of the five stanzas follows the rhyme scheme aba, bcb, cdc, ded, ee.5. Function: This linked chain gives a feeling of onward motion and the verse has a breathless quality which is in keeping with the onward motion of the wind’s movement.Ⅰ哦,狂暴的西风,秋之生命的呼吸!你无形,但枯死的落叶被你横扫有如鬼魅碰到了巫师,纷纷逃避:黄的,黑的,灰的,红得像患肺痨,呵,重染疫疠的一群:西风呵,是你以车驾把有翼的种子催送到黑暗的冬床上,它们就躺在那里,像是墓中的死穴,冰冷,深藏,低贱,直等到春天,你碧空的姊妹吹起她的喇叭,在沉睡的大地上响遍,(唤出嫩芽,像羊群一样,觅食空中)将色和香充满了山峰和平原。

Hamlet生存或毁灭, 这是个必答之问题:是否应默默的忍受坎苛命运之无情打击,还是应与深如大海之无涯苦难奋然为敌,并将其克服。

此二抉择, 就竟是哪个较崇高?死即睡眠, 它不过如此!倘若一眠能了结心灵之苦楚与肉体之百患,那么, 此结局是可盼的!死去, 睡去...但在睡眠中可能有梦, 啊, 这就是个阻碍:当我们摆脱了此垂死之皮囊,在死之长眠中会有何梦来临?它令我们踌躇,使我们心甘情愿的承受长年之灾,否则谁肯容忍人间之百般折磨,如暴君之政、骄者之傲、失恋之痛、法章之慢、贪官之侮、或庸民之辱,假如他能简单的一刃了之?还有谁会肯去做牛做马, 终生疲於操劳,默默的忍受其苦其难, 而不远走高飞, 飘於渺茫之境,倘若他不是因恐惧身後之事而使他犹豫不前?此境乃无人知晓之邦, 自古无返者。

所以,「理智」能使我们成为懦夫,而「顾虑」能使我们本来辉煌之心志变得黯然无光, 像个病夫。

再之, 这些更能坏大事, 乱大谋, 使它们失去魄力。

Romeo and Juliet罗密欧没有受过伤的才会讥笑别人身上的创痕。

(朱丽叶自上方窗户中出现)轻声!那边窗子里亮起来的是什么光?那就是东方,朱丽叶就是太阳!起来吧,美丽的太阳!赶走那妒忌的月亮,她因为她的女弟子比她美得多,已经气得面色惨白了。

既然她这样妒忌着你,你不要忠于她吧;脱下她给你的这一身惨绿色的贞女的道服,它是只配给愚人穿的。

那是我的意中人;啊!那是我的爱;唉,但愿她知道我在爱着她!她欲言又止,可是她的眼睛已经道出了她的心事。

待我去回答她吧;不,我不要太卤莽,她不是对我说话。

天上两颗最灿烂的星,因为有事他去,请求她的眼睛替代它们在空中闪耀。

要是她的眼睛变成了天上的星,天上的星变成了她的眼睛,那便怎样呢?她脸上的光辉会掩盖了星星的明亮,正像灯光在朝阳下黯然失色一样;在天上的她的眼睛,会在太空中大放光明,使鸟儿误认为黑夜已经过去而唱出它们的歌声。

瞧!她用纤手托住了脸,那姿态是多么美妙!啊,但愿我是那一只手上的手套,好让我亲一亲她脸上的香泽!朱丽叶唉!罗密欧她说话了。

英国文学现实主义风格的形成

英国文学现实主义风格的形成

第13卷第1期2011年2月安顺学院学报JOURNAL OF ANSH UN UNIVERS ITYVol 13 No 1Feb 2011文学 语言 写作收稿日期:2010-11-20作者简介:刘迎春(1976~),辽宁大连人,大连职业教育学院讲师。

研究方向:英美文学。

英国文学现实主义风格的形成刘迎春(大连职业技术学院,辽宁 大连116035)摘 要: 愤怒的青年!的文学创作是对19世纪英国传统现实主义文学的继承和发展,是来自英国社会底层的人们对其生存意义的严肃思考,是对英国资本主义社会种种尖锐矛盾的揭露。

愤怒的青年!的现实主义风格的形成是第二次世界大战后英国社会发展的必然结果,有着极其重要的社会意义和文学地位。

关键词:愤怒的青年;现实主义;第二次世界大战中图分类号:I561 09 文献标识码:A 文章编号:1673-9507(2011)01-0005-03 愤怒的青年!(T he Angry Yo ung M en)是指20世纪50年代出现在英国文坛上的一批现实主义风格的青年作家,在英国战后文学史上有着重要的地位。

他们没有固定的团体组织,也没有统一的宗旨,他们来自于社会的中、下层,愤世嫉俗,发泄着20世纪50年代战后欧洲人们心中的空虚、迷茫、压抑、孤独和悲观的心情。

愤怒的青年!的出现,填补了英国文坛上继叶芝、詹姆斯 乔伊斯、弗吉尼亚 伍尔夫和劳伦斯等文学大家之后曾一度出现的空白,使英国文坛在现实主义传统的复苏中又勃发出一片生机。

一、英国现实主义文学的表现形式现实主义作为一种文学思潮和创作原则,首先出现在法国,19世纪初出现在英国,以笛福和菲尔丁为代表的现实主义作家,他们的作品着重反映了社会问题和道德问题,所以,也有评论家把这一时期刚刚出现的现实主义作品称之为社会和道德现实主义。

19世纪中期,现实主义已经成为英国文学的主流,在英国的社会条件和各种思想的影响下,形成了自己的特点。

英国现实主义作家通常以劳资矛盾为创作题材,较多地表现劳资矛盾以及 小人物!的悲惨命运和苦难生活,人道主义和改良主义色彩特别浓厚,出现了马克思所称赞的 一派出色的小说家!,他们是狄更斯、萨克雷、夏绿蒂 勃朗特、盖斯凯尔夫人等,此时英国文学的现实主义又被称作批判现实主义,其主要代表作家是查尔斯 狄更斯和萨克雷。

Jonathan Swift (1667-1745)
• JONATHAN SWIFT(1667-1745) was born of English parents in Dublin, where he was educated at Trinity College, and in 1713became Dean of St Patrick's Cathedral. While previously living in London, he had made friends with Pope, Gay, and Arbuthnot, formed with them the Scriblerus Club, and written propaganda for the Tory administration of another club member, Robert Harley. He had first made his fame as a satirist with A Tale of a Tub and The Battle of the Books (1704), and after his return to Dublin(1714)he used his genius for polemical satire to defend Ireland(i.e. Anglo Irish Protestants) against exploitation by the English Whigs, most sensationally in S Modest Proposal(1729). Politics figured in Gulliver's Travels also, but only as a single element in a story of universal appeal, full of humor and excitement. Written when Swift was nearly 60, and first published in 1726,it at once became literally one of the world's classics.

英语口语课力图把学生置于英语国家文化背景之中,充分发挥学生的听说能力,引导学生积极主动地进行口语学习。

把听说领先的教学原则置于一种真实、宽松、主动和持久的文化背景和语言环境中去贯彻和落实,摆脱学生“张口难”的障碍,培养学生掌握准确、流利的教学原则,提高英语口头表达和交际能力。

英语口语教程内容覆盖面广,语言环境真实,情景意念生动有趣,语言范例标准地道,注意到不同场合的语言交际过程,强调学生全面的口语能力培养。
