工业革命中英文对照
During the first half of the eighteenth century, in the old age of Newton and the decline of the Royal Society, England basked in a last Indian summer of village industry and the overseas trade of merchant adventurers.The summer faded.Trade grew more competitive.By the end of the century the needs of industry were harsher and more pressing.Theorganizationof work in the cottage was no longer productive enough.Within two generations, roughly between 1760 and 1820, the customary way of running industry changed.Before 1760, it was standard to take work to villagers in their own homes.By 1820, it was standard to bring workers into a factory and have them overseen.
工业革命(英文版)
指从农业和手工业经济转变到以工业和机器生产为主的变化过程。
始于18世纪的英国。
技术上的改变包括:钢铁和新能源的使用、提高产量的新机器的发明(包括多锭纺纱机)、工厂体系的发展、交通和通信的重要发展(包括蒸汽发动机和电报机),其他改变还包括:农业的改进、更加广泛的财富分配、反映出经济力量转移及全面社会变革的政治变化。
1760~1830年间产业革命基本上仅发生在英国,后来又传播到比利时和法国。
其他国家则滞后一些,但德国、美国和日本产业革命开始后,取得的成就则超过了英国最初的成功。
东欧各国则延迟到20世纪,直到20世纪中叶,产业革命才传到中国和印度。
许多分析证据表明,由于采用了新材料和新能源、自动化工厂、新的生产资料所有制,以及自由放任主义管理的转变,20世纪末发生了第二次产业革命,或称新产业革命。
Industrial RevolutionProcess of change from an agrarian, handicraft economy to one dominated by industry and machine manufacture.It began in England in the 18th century. Technological changes included the use of iron and steel, new energy sources, invention of new machines that increased production (including the spinning jenny), development of the factory system, and important developments in transportation and communication (including the steam engine and telegraph). Other changes included agricultural improvements, a wider distribution of wealth, political changes reflecting the shift in economic power, and sweeping social changes. The Industrial Revolution was largely confined to Britain from 1760 to 1830, then spread to Belgium and France. Other nations lagged behind, but once Germany, the U.S., and Japan achieved industrial power they outstripped Britain's initial successes. Eastern European countries lagged into the 20th century, and not until the mid-20th century did the Industrial Revolution spread to such countries as China and India. Many analysts saw evidence of a second, or new, industrial revolution in the later 20th century, with the use of new materials and energy sources, automated factories, new ownership of the means of production, and a shift away from laissez-faire government第一次工业革命对世界的影响有以下几个方面:①工业革命大幅度地提高了社会生产力,丰富了人们的物质生活,巩固了资本主义各国的统治。

Whigs was a derogatory name for cattle drivers, while Tories was an Irish word meaning thugs.The Whigs were those who opposed absolute monarchy and supported the right to religious freedom for Nonconformists. They stood for a reduction in Crown Patronage, sympathy towards Non-Conformists and care for the interests of merchants and bankers. Most Whigs were in favour of some kind of Parliamentary reform, but could not agree how far this reform should go.The Tories were traditionalists who wanted to preserve the powers of the monarchy and the Church of England. They disliked the Nonconformists and considered them a threat to Church of England's influence on people. They wanted strict maintenance of law and order. They might agree to some humanitarian reforms, but were certainly against Parliamentary reforms.The Whigs later formed a coalition with dissident Tories in the mid-19th century and became the Liberal Party. The Tories developed into the Conservative Party, which still bears the nickname today.RadicalsThe Radicals were another force in the Parliament. They wanted fundamental reforms to get to the root of the problems, and their one common aim was the thorough reform of the Parliamentary system. Small as they were, the Radicals were active in Parliament spreading their radical ideas.They were greatly influenced by Jeremy Bentham's ideals known as 'Utilitarianism'. He suggested that government's function should be to achieve 'the greatest happiness of the greatest number', and this should be done in two ways: firstly, government and administration should be made as efficient as possible; secondly, government should interfere as little as possible with the lives of the people as individuals.They advocated laissez faire, a radical idea of free trade, because they believed that the import and export duties interfered with the natural flow of trade.Agricultural Changesin the Late 18th CenturyTraditional farming system: Open field villageVillages were surrounded by 3 great hedgeless fields. Each year only two of them were cultivated, so that the fallow field recovered its richness after two years' cultivation. The farming was done on a community basis. There were also commons and wastelands used by all villages to graze livestock.This system was an ideal basis for the simple community life of the countryside and the subsistence farming before the modern industrial age. There were of course drawbacks. It wasted land, labour, and time; livestock farming was difficult in winter, and diseases spread quickly on commons; it was a barrier to experiments.Land enclosuresIn the mid-18th century the population in England increased rapidly. Demands for greater productivity made the landowners replace the small farms cultivated on the open-field system by larger, more efficient farms with hedge divided fields.During the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the open-field system ended when the Enclosure Acts enabled wealthier landowners to seize any land and divide it into enclosed fields.Enclosure became more frequent after 1740 and climaxed during the turn of the century, when the war against Napoleon meant high food prices.Changes in farming methodsA system of crop rotation was introduced. This meant land could be fully used while the cultivation of fodder crops enabled livestock to be kept through the winter months.Artificial fertilizer and new agricultural machinery, such as seed drill invented by Jethro Tull (1674-1741) also made arable farming more efficient and profitable.Selective breeding of livestock introduced by Porbert Bakewell (1725-95) made animals much heavier than ever before.The idea of encouraging tenants to introduce the changes was associated with Thomas Coke (1754-1842) of Norfolk in Southern England. George III (1760-1820), King of the United Kingdom of the House of Hanover was given the nickname 'Farmer George', because he was very enthusiastic about the agricultural changes at Windsor.Consequences of enclosuresFarms became bigger and consumer goods became more varied.Enclosure was a disaster for the tenants. They were evicted from their lands and had to look for work in towns, which rapidly became hopelessly overcrowded.In Ireland and Scottish Highlands, land enclosure led to mass emigration, partic ularly to the New World.A new class hostility was introduced into rural relationships. The labourers were forced to leave the land to survive because of concentration of land in fewer hands and loss of common land for animals.The Industrial Revolution (1780-1830)Factors leading to the Industrial RevolutionThe Industrial Revolution refers to the mechanization of industry and the consequent changes in social and economic organization in Britain in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Britain became the first country to industrialize because of the following factors:Britain is well placed geographically to participate in European and world trade. Its main towns are not too far from seaports or rivers. It also has many natural resources, such as mineral resources, and rivers useful for transport as well as for water and steam power.Britain had a peaceful society after the Glorious Revolution. Under the influence of laissez faire and 'Protestant work ethic', it was increasingly interested in overseas trade and colonies, which provided capital in large quantities for industrialization. And the Constitutional Monarchy ensured that the powerful economic interests in the community could exert their influence over Government policy.The enclosures and other improvements in agriculture made their contributions by providing food for the rising population, labour for the factories, and some of the raw materials needed by industry.Britain had many well-trained engineers and craftsmen. The inventors were respected. They solved the practical problems.England, Scotland, and Wales formed a customs union after 1707, and this included Ireland after 1807. So the national market was not hindered by the internal customs barriers.Development of the Industrial RevolutionWhile the movement to enclose the land and use new agricultural methods was at its height, similar changes took place in manufacture. New techniques and water powered machines resulted in organization of industries on a large scale. At this time population became increasingly concentrated in towns, especially in Midlands, North of England, Southern Wales and Central Scotland, which provided the desperately needed laborers for the industrialization.Changes occurred earliest and quickest in textiles, especially silk and cotton, which were first to adopt factory methods of production. By 1760, the silk industry was well established, although it was still no competition for the French and Italians. The real ‘revolution’ in the silk industry was in 1770 when power-driven machinery was introduced.Cotton had been slow to develop, because cotton was mostly imported from West Indies and America, and spinning pure cotton was difficult. Technology aided weaving at first. John Kay's flying shuttle (1733) speeded up hand weaving and created demand for faster spinning. Then spinning was revolutionized by James Hargreaves' spinning jenny (1766), which enabled one hand labourer to spin many threads at a time. Richard Arkwright's water frame (1769) and Samuel Crompton's mule (1779) replaced hand labour altogether, and required waterpower andsteam to drive them. Edmund Cartwright's power loom (1784) eventually enabled weaving to catch up with spinning. British cotton now rivaled the best products of the East.The first steam engine was devised by Thomas Newcomer at the end of the 17th century. In 1765, James Watt (1736-1819), the Scottish inventor, modified and improved the design, and produced a very efficient steam engine with rotary motion that could be applied to textile and other machinery.The most important element in speeding industrialization was Abraham Darby's success in melting iron with coke instead of charcoal in 1709, which hugely increased the production of iron that was used for machinery, railways and shipping. In the forging side of the iron industry,Henry Court's pudding and rolling processes (1840) enabled vastly increased quantities of high-quality iron to replace wood and stone in many sectors of the economy.Improved Transportation, e.g. road and canal construction, ran parallel with production. By the early 19th century, Britain had a road network of some 200,000 km.Consequences of the Industrial RevolutionAs a result of the industrialization, Britain was by 1830 the 'workshop of the world'. No other country was yet ready to compete with her in industrial production. Towns grew rapidly and became the source of the nation's wealth. The north of England was now the most advanced in Britain.The Industrial revolution created the industrial working class, i.e. the proletariat who had to work and live in extremely bad conditions. Because the working men's livelihood had been destroyed by the mechanization, the 'Luddites', led by Ned Ludd, attempted to destroy the hated machines, but were severely punished by the government.The Chartist Movement (1836-48)Factors contributing to the political change in EnglandTwo great international eventsIn the closing decades of the 18th century, two events greatly alarmed the British ruling classes. The first was the American War of Independence (1776), in which the colonists fought for equality, national identity and political representation. Their war cry 'no tax without representation' encouraged the British middle class and working class to struggle forrepresentation in Parliaments, which represented only aristocrats at that time. The second was the French Revolution (1789-93), in which people fought for liberty, equality and fraternity.The general election of 1830Political change in England did not come through revolution but through gradual reform. When the Whigs under Charles Grey (1830-34) were returned to power at the general election of 1830, they turned their minds to the problems of parliamentary reform.Parliamentary reforms (1830-34)Reasons for parliamentary reformsPower was monopolized by the aristocratsIn the 18th and 19th centuries the Lords had far more influence in Parliament than the Commons. Most important ministers were aristocrats and bishops of Church, while the Commons were elected only by a small proportion of the population, and the vote was only a privilege for a small number of male citizens. Besides, the MPs were not paid.Representation of county and town, and North and South was unfair.The county seats and borough seats were very unfairly distributed. All counties with property worth 40 shillings annually could vote two members of Parliament, although some southern villages had already been deserted; but new northern cities like Manchester had no seats, although they were densely populated.There were also so-called rotten or pocket boroughs.Rotten boroughs were those deserted market towns, which had been busy before, but they could still elect MPs. In pocket boroughs, elections were not won by political views but by influence, and the candidate could buy off the voters, so that even before the election, the seat was already 'in his pocket'.Reform Bills passed in the time of the Whigs' GovernmentThe Reform Act of 1832, also called the Greater Charter of 1832, abolished 'rotten boroughs' and redistributed parliamentary seats more fairly among the growing towns. It also gave the vote to many householders and tenants, based on the value of their property.The New Poor Law of 1834 forced the poor people into workhouses instead of giving them sufficient money to survive in their own homes.The Chartist Movement (1836-48)The London Working Men's Association and the People's Charter(1836-38)Dissatisfied with the two Reform Bills and the failure of attempts to develop trade unionism, some radicals and militant workers were determined to renew the working class fight for political equality.In 1836 a group of skilled workers and small shopkeepers, led by William Lovett, formed the London Working Men's Association, aiming to seek every legal means to place all classes ofsociety in possession of equal political and social rights.In 1838 they drew up a charter of political demands (the People's Charter), with the intention of presenting it to Parliament. It had six points: the vote for all adult males, voting by secret ballot, equal electoral districts, abolition of property qualifications for MPs, payments of MPs, annual Parliaments with a General Election every June.The Chartist groups (1838)Other working men formed Chartist groups throughout the country. In 1838 they held a great meeting in Birmingham to launch the movement officially, with the aim of pressing Parliament to accept the People's Charter.The Chartists could be roughly divided into two groups: the Moral Force Chartists and the Physical Force Chartists. The former, headed by William Lovett, wanted to realize their aims by peaceful means (‘politics of persuasion'), while the latter, headed by Feargus O'Connor, wanted to achieve their purpose by violence.The climax and the end of the movement (1839-48)In 1839, a National Convention was held in London. But it revealed conflicts within the movement and great differences between the Northerners (who were fundamentallyanti-industrialists) and the men from the Midlands and London.In November 1839, Chartist riots occurred in Birmingham, Sheffield and Newport, and 24 Chartists were killed in a full-scale rising.In 1840 and 1842, two petitions were presented to Parliament, but both were rejected. At the same time, the Chartist movement was widely split.In 1848, the proposed great Chartist Demonstration ended quietly with the third petition presented to Parliament.Reasons for the failure of the Chartist MovementThe Movement failed because of its weak and divided leadership, its lack of coordination with trade unionism, and the immaturity of the working class.Significance of the Chartist MovementIt was the first nationwide working class movement and drew attention to serious problems. The 6 points achieved very gradually from 1858 to 1918, although the sixth has never been practical. Lenin considered it as the first broad, really mass, political formed, proletarian revolutionary movement.Trade Unions and the Labour PartyEarly trade unionsOwing to the Industrial Revolution, the new working class became established in the industrial towns in the late 18th century. They became aware of the power they could possess if they acted together instead of separately. So various working class organizations such as friendly societies and mutual insurance companies were formed to bring about improvements in their standards of living.However, the movements were regarded by the government as possible centers of revolution. Consequently Parliament passed the Combination Acts of 1799-1800 to forbid the formation of unions. After these laws were cancelled in 1824, the 1825 Act allowed workers to form unions but not to obstruct workers and employers. It was now illegal to strike.The Grand National Consolidated Trade Union (GNCTU)Most early trade unions were small and local. From 1825, large unions began to combine workers in different parts of the country.In 1833, the Grand National Consolidated Trade Union was established to form a national union. But it came to nothing after six Dorsetshire agricultural laborers were tried and transported in 1834 on the charge of administering false oaths.New UnionismFrom 1850, working class energies were taken up with other movements such as the Chartist Movement and the Anti-Corn Law league. And a new kind of trade unionism developed among skilled workers, such as the Amalgamated Society of Engineers (ASE), which was the model for other national craft unions formed in 1850s and 1860s.These new trade unions offered benefits for sickness, unemployment or old age to their members who had paid a certain sum of money per week. But they placed strict restriction of entry to their trades so as to avoid confrontations with employers as far as possible. As a result, this New Unionism was not favored by all workers.Trades Union Congress (TUC)In the 1860s, trade unionists began to meet regularly to discuss matters of common interests, such as regulation of hours, technical education, and conditions of apprenticeship.In 1868, the TUC was started, thus the trade unionism had a national organization capable of coordinating the interests of industrial workers.New legal security for the trade unionsTrade unions had always lacked legal rights. They had to fight two strong opponents together-employers and the State. In the time of the Liberal Government, two new laws were passed to give the movement new legal security.The Trade Union Act of 1871 legalized the trade unions and gave financial security. This meant that, in law there was no difference between collecting money for benefit purposes and collecting money to support strike action.The Conspiracy and Protection of Property Act of 1876 gave unions the right to exist as corporation, able to own property and to defend their rights cooperatively in courts of law.Formation of the Labour PartyThe Labour Party had its origins in the Independent Labour Party (ILP), which was formed in 1893, and led by Keir Hardie, a Scottish miner. The ILP was too idealistic and its leaders too individualistic to become a mass party. So the foundation of an effective party for labour would depend on the trade unions.In 1900, representatives of trade unions (TUC), the ILP and a number of small socialist societies set up the Labour Representation Committee (LRC), with the simple aim to promote the interests of labour in Parliament.In 1906, the LRC changed its name to the Labour Party in time for the General Election of that year. The Labour Party participated in the war coalition government in 1915-18, became the main opposition party in 1922, and formed majority government in 1924 and 1929-35 under Ramsay Macdonald.Colonial ExpansionThe building of the British EmpireEnglish colonial expansion began with the colonization of Newfoundland in 1583.In the early 18th century, settlements were made in North America, while commercial companies were chartered to trade with other lands, notably the British East Company in India.In the late 18th century and the early 19th century, the British colonialists stepped up their expansion, encouraged by Britain's control of the seas, the discoveries of men like Captain Cook, especially by the rising tide of emigration.By 1900 Britain had set up a big empire, 'on which the sun never set'. It consisted of a vast number of protectorates, Crown Colonies, spheres of influences, and self-governing dominions, and it included 25% of the world's population and area.The growth of dominionsCanadaCanada was ceded to Britain by the 1763 Treaty of Paris, after the Seven Years' War (1756-63) between Britain and France.French rights were guaranteed by the Quebec Act of 1774.The Canada Act of 1791 divided Canada into Upper Canada (Ontario) where the British had settled, and Lower Canada (Quebec) populated by the French.One serious revolt against British rule took place in 1837-38.The British North America Act of 1867 established Canada as a dominion. The four founding provinces were Quebec, Ontario, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.AustraliaAustralia was first discovered by the Dutch in the early 1600s.In 1770, Captain James Cook discovered Botany Bay, and claimed the east coast region for Britain, naming it New South Wales.In 1788, the English began to transport convicts to Australia.Free settlement began in 1816, and no convicts were sent to Australia after 1840.In 1851-92, the gold rushes brought more people here.In 1901, the six self-governing colonies were united in one dominion-the independent Commonwealth of Australia.New ZealandNew Zealand was settled by Maoris in about the 14th century.In 1642, the Dutch seaman Abel Tasman sighted New Zealand and named it the Netherlands province of Zeeland.In 1770s, Captain James Cook visited New Zealand and claimed it for England.In the early 19th century, missionaries became active to come here.In 1840, the systematic colonization was begun by the New Zealand Company.In 1841, the country was made a separate colony, according to the Treaty of Waitangi between Britain and the Maori Chiefs.It achieved self-government in 1852, became a dominion under the British crown in 1907, and was made completely independent in 1931.The Conquest of IndiaThe establishment of the British East India Company in 1600 was a case of economic penetration. The company took control of areas and as a result the British government becamedirectly involved in Indian Affairs. The India Act of 1784 set up a 'Board of Control' to supervise the company.Political instability and French interference promoted further intervention. By 1819, the British conquest of India was almost complete.The Indian Mutiny of 1857 was raised by the native troops of the Bengal army of the East India Company, because of resentment at the British reforms of ancient Indian institutions; fear of forcible conversion to Christianity; and the issue of cartridges greased with cow-fat and pig-fat which offended Hindus and Muslims respectively.After the mutiny, the control of India passed to the British Crown in 1858, and Queen Victoria (1837-1901) became Empress of India in 1877.The Scramble for AfricaThe South of AfricaIn1652, the Dutch East India Company established a settlement at Cape Town. Settlement extended inland to form Cape Colony in the 18th century.In 1806, Britain took the Cape Colony to protect it route to India. Increasing numbers of British settlers arrived in the 1820s.In 1835-36, in order to escape British domination, the native Boers moved northward in the Great Trek (mass migration) to Natal, the Transvaal and the Orange Free State. Britain took Natal in 1843 but recognized the independence of the Transvaal in 1852 and the Orange Free State in 1854.Relations between the British colony and the Boer republics became worse, especially when Britain took Griqualand of the Orange Free State in 1871 when diamonds had been discovered there.An attempt to take the Transvaal in 1877 resulted in war between Britain and the Boers (1880-81) in which Britain was defeated and the independence of Transvaal was recognized.The discovery of gold at Witwatersrand in1886 brought many new immigrants, known as Uitlanders, to the Transvaal. But the President of Transvaal refused to give them the right to vote. This, together with the Jameson Raid in 1895, resulted in the Boer War (1899-1902). After the British victory, the Transvaal and the Orange Free State became British colonies in 1902. In 1910, they were united with the Cape Province and Natal to form the Union of South Africa.The West and the Interior of AfricaAt the beginning of the 19th century, British possessions were confined to forts and slave trading posts on the West Coast.Over the 19th century, the interior of Africa was gradually discovered and colonized by Europeans. In 1885, the involved European countries signed a treaty in Berlin to lay down rules of conducting the scramble for Africa.By 1900, more than 9/10 had been colonized. Britain led the way in this race to take the fertile and productive areas of Africa.The North East of AfricaThe French influence in Egypt was strong since the French engineers built the Sues Canal, and the French owned half the shares in the Canal Company.In 1875, the British government bought almost all the remaining Canal shares from the bankrupt Egyptian ruler, who abdicated in 1879. In 1882-1914, the British occupied Egypt.In 1899, Sudan was put under the joint Anglo-Egyptian rule after the failure of the Mahdi revolt against Egypt in 1881.Aggression against ChinaBritain, France and Germany were also rivals in establishing trading posts and naval stations in the Far East. In the 1830s, British merchants began to smuggle opium to China from India.In 1839, the Chinese, led by the Imperial Commissioner Lin Zexu, confiscated the British opium and burnt them at Canton. This resulted in the Opium war (1840-42) between Britain and China. By the Treaty of Nanking (1842), China ceded Hong Kong to Britain, and opened ports to British trade. Britain were to receive over £6 million war indemnity.After the Second Opium War (1856-58), China was forced to sign the treaties of Tianjin (1858) with Britain, France, Russia and the US, by which 11 more ports were opened.Twentieth CenturyBritain before the First World War (1901-14)Reforms continued to come year by yearFactory Acts made further improvements in conditions of work.Housing Acts got rid of some of the worst slums.Education Acts brought free schools and free school meals to poor children.Women's position in society was gradually improved.In 1897 women started to demand the right to vote in national elections. Within ten years these women, the 'suffragettes' led by Mrs. Pankhurst, had become famous for the extreme methods they were willing to use. But the First World War interrupted their campaign.Thanks to this militant feminist movement before the WWI, votes were granted to women over 30 as soon as the war was over, and to all women over 21, equal with men, ten years later in 1929.The Liberal government (1905-22) carried out some reformsThe Parliament Act of 1911 severely limited the powers of the Lords and established the Commons as the supreme legislative body. The MPs were granted an annual salary of £400.The National Insurance Act of 1911 provided insurance against sickness and unemployment. Maternity grants and elder pensions were also established.Unions were granted protection from liability for losses caused by strikes. Labour exchanges were established and minimum wages were fixed in certain industriesThe Problem of Ireland remained unsolvedThe Home Rule Bill of 1914 set up an Irish Parliament with limited powers. But it wasn't applied until after the WWI.Britain and the First World War (1914-18)Two European power blocsAt the beginning of the 20th century, France, Germany and America were becoming powerful competitors for world markets. The new united German state was emerging as the biggest threat to Britain.The War was fought primarily between two European power blocs: the Central Powers (Germany and Austria-Hungary), and the Allies (Britain, France and Russia). In wartime, the former were joined by Turkey and Bulgaria, and the latter were joined by Japan, Italy, the U.S.A. and other countries.Beginning of the WarOn June 28,1914, the Austrian Crown Prince Franz Ferdinand was assassinated by a Serbian nationalist.On July 28, Austria, awaiting a pretext for suppressing Slav nationalism, declared war on Serbia, with Germany's blessing. Russia immediately mobilized, and France rejected Germany's demand for its neutrality.Germany declared war on Russia on August 1, and on France on August 3, then invaded Belgium, hoping to win a quick victory in the West before returning to Russia.Britain's entry into the WarOn August 4, Britain declared war on Germany.There were two reasons for Britain's entry into the war. Firstly, Britain was afraid that Germany would overrun Europe and gain control of parts of the British Empire. Secondly, Britain had a treaty with Belgium to guarantee its neutrality.End of the WarOn November 11, 1918, an armistice came into effect after the Central Powers sued for peace.。

Unit three History1. What are the major eras in British history as phased in terms of ruling royal families?In Roman Britain times, Britain under the Norman kings and Renaissance2. Who were the main foreign invaders of Britain at different times in British history? What contribution have they respectively made to the British culture, or what impacts have they had?The first foreign invader is Roman. They make the archaeology evidence indicates that man lived in what is now the British Isles long before it broke away from the continent of Europe and before great seas covered the land bridge now known as the English channel. Early men came from the European continent and settled in this region leaving behind tools dating back to the lower Paleolithic Age around 700000 years ago. Than after 800BC, the Celts invaded from central Europe and had covered account as being warlike, courageous, and aggressive. They introduced two important changes: The beginning of the Iron Age and the building of hill forts. The Romans also recorded two additional war-like peoples, the Picts in Scotland and the Scots in Ireland. And south Britain was progressively invaded by successive waves of Germanic tribesmen, including The Angles, Saxons and Jute, all from the Northwestern Europe. From about AD 793, the Vikings from Denmark, Norway or Sweden (know as Danes) began to invade Britain and eventually settled in northern and eastern England. During the Anglo-Saxon rule, the northern part of Britain remained independent, inhabited by Celtic tribe.3.How did feudalism emerge and decline in medieval Britain ?Feudalism, concept often used to describe the medieval society, had existed under the Anglo-Saxon kings. To consolidate his power, the new king, William the Conqueror, strengthened and enlarged the system of feudal relations.Decline :after Richard I , king John suffered the loss of Normandy and numerous other French territories through mistreatment of his vassal lord. Medieval Wales was rarely united, but was under the rule of various native principalities. Added to economic and social dislocations caused by hundred Y ears’ war was the Black Death , fierce and widespread outbreak of plague that ravaged the whole of Europe .With Henry Tudor accession as Henry vII, the central authority of the Crown was soon to be resumed, bringing England’s turbulent medieval period to an end and, most importantly, ushering in a new age.4.What was the social background for the Reformation to take place in England? What major achievement did the Elizabethan era witness?The church had gained not only material importance. But also extensive power in politics and law. Following about a decade’s turbulence during the reign of Edward and Mary, which arose from strife between the Protestant faith and the Catholic Church, British history entered the reign of Elizabeth I in 1558, an age of glory. Elizabeth she succeeded in putting to rest most notably by balancing the interests of Puritans and the Catholics. Furthermore, her government was effective in reducing the power of the old nobility, expending the power of her government and effecting common law and administration throughout England. Elizabeth Era also witnessed theEnglish Renaissance.5.In what sense did Tudor Britain serve as a transition to modern times?The Tudor period was a decisive one in English history in the sense that it further sapped feudal strength and nurtured the modern English nation state. which was bound together by a common language, a powerful central government ,and a strong church . On the other hand ,the Tudor period posed many import questions- the relative power of the monarch and parliament and to what extent one should control the other-which would have to be answered in the next century and during the English Civil War .6.How did the UK Parliament come into being? How did the major political parties evolve?Richard I antagonized the feudal nobility and the leading church figures to the Magna Carta to impose legal limits on the king’s personal powers in raising money from his subjects. For this purpose ,a royal council of twenty-five barons was formed and then joined by some lesser men or the “commons”, which slowly develop into a parliament with two separate houses .During in Henry III’s reign ,Simon de Montfort summoned the first elected parliament in 1265.The franchise in parliamentary elections set the scene for the so-called “Model parliament” of1295 adopted by Edward I.7. How did the English Civil W ar break out? What were the consequences of the W ar?Chares I, son of JamesI, succeeded to the throne in1625.He inherited from his father a complete and unshakable belief in Diving Right kingship and demanded outright loyalty in return for “just rule”. But parliament sought to limit the powers of the prerogative and to guarantee civil liberties through the petition of right. This led to a serious break between the two, and eventually to a war known as Civil War. Essentially The Civil War was a constitutional issue between a king who claimed to rule by divine right and represented the feudal nobility, and Parliament representing country gentry, merchant and artisans, who claimed real sovereignty. As far as religion is concerned, it was a conflict between the Protestants and the Catholics, but indeed it had much to do with the division within the one protestant religion-between the Anglican belief and the anti-royal Puritan ideology..8.How did the English industrial Revolution proceed from the mid-18 century to the mid-19th century and beyond? How has it impacted British society?The Industrial Revolution in Britain first start in its age-old wool textile industry. In the mid-1750s,Britain enjoyed all condition that would favor adoption of new devices and efficient method of production in the industry. Oversea, economic temptation had involved England in chronic wars with both Spain and French before Georgian period, which continued until 1815,only punctuated by brief interval of peace .The impetus of the Industrial Revolution had already occurred, but it was during the Victorian period that the full effect of industrialization were moat felt ,leading to the mass society of 20th century .the middle of the century saw the Great Exhibition of 1851 the first World’s fair that showcased the greatest innovations of century ,including photography, among other things .9.How did Christianity emerge and develop in English society? What role has it played though out English history?In the Middle age, the church had gained not only material importance, but also extensive power in politics and low. During Henry VIII’s early reign. there emerged an atmosphere of widespread criticism of church for the immorality of its clergy and corruption of its structure. Henry VIII initiated revolution separating the English church from Rome and establishing himself head of the church . As we say it doesn’t just a belief ,it is a way to control people in the country !The leaders always use that way to control a country !10.What were the distinct features of Victorian era that made it different from other times?In the political arena, the agenda was increasingly liberal with a number of shifts in the direction of widening of the franchise and gradual political reform. in social life, movements for justice, freedom and other strong moral values occupied an in creasing portion of public attention. Municipal reforms were directed at urban problems in health, hygiene and education .women were grants the legal right to their property upon marriage the right to divorce, and right to fight for custody of their children upon separation.

英美概况简答题11.What were the consequences of the Norman ConquestThe Norman Conquest of 1066 is one of the best known events in English history. It brought about many consequences. William confiscated almost all the land and gave it to his Norman followers. He replaced the weak Saxon rule with a strong Norman government. So the feudal system was completely established in England. Relations with the Continent were opened, and civilization and commerce were extended.Norman-French culture, language, manners, and architecture were been introduced. The church was brought into closer connection with Rome, and the church courts were separated from the civil courts.2.Explain the Glorious Revolution in English.In 1685 Charles II died and was succeeded by his brother James II. James was brought up in exile in Europe, was a Catholic. He hoped to rule without giving up his personal religious vies. But England was no more tolerant of a Catholic king in 1688 than 40 years ago. So the English politicians rejected James II, and appealed to a Protestant king, William of Orange, to invade and take the English throne. William landed in England in 1688. The takeover was relatively smooth, with no bloodshed, nor any execution of the king. This was known as the Glorious Revolution.3.What is the basis of British government Explain it in English.The basis of British government is the Constitutional Monarchy. It is a political system that has been practised in Britain since the Glorious revolution of 1688. According to this system, the Constitution is superior to the Monarch. In law, the Monarch has many supreme powers, but in practice, the real power ofmonarchy has been greatly reduced and today the Queen acts solely on the advice of her ministers. She reigns but does not rule. The real power lies in the Parliament, or to be exact, in the House of Commons.4.How did the English Industrial Revolution proceedThe Industrial Revolution began with the textile industry. It’s characterized by a series of inventions and improvements of machines, such as flying shuttle, spinning Jenny. James Watt produced a efficient steam engine in 1765, which could be applied to textile and other machinery. The most important element in speeding industrialization was the breakthrough in smelting iron with coke instead of charcoal. Similar developments occurred in the forging side of the iron industry which enabled iron to replace wool and stone in many sectors of the economy. As a result of the industrial revolution, Britain was by 1830 the “workshop of the world”, no other country could compete with her in industrial production.5.What were the contents and the significance of the Great CharterThe Great Charter, or the Magna Carta, was document signed in 1215 between the barons and king John. It had altogether 63 clauses. The Great Charter was a statement of the feudal and legal relationship between the Crown and the barons, a guarantee of the freedom of the Church and a limitation of the powers of the king. The spirit of the Great Charter was the limitation of the powers of the king, but it has long been regarded as the foundation of English liberties.6.Why did the Restoration take placeWhen Oliver Cormwell died in 1658 and was succeeded by his son, Richard, the regime began to collapse.One of Cromwell’s generals occu pied London and arranged for new parliamentary elections. The Parliament thus was elected in 1660, and to resolve the crisis, it asked the late king’s son to return from hi s exile in France as king Charles II. It was called the Restoration.7.What is a constitutional monarchy When did it begin in BritainA constitutional monarchy is a governmental system in which the head of State is a king or a queen whoreigns but does not rule. The country is namely reigned by the Sovereign, but virtually by His or Her Ma jesty’s Government ——a body of Ministers who are the leading members of whichever political party the electorate has voted into office, and who are responsible to Parliament. The Constitutional Monarchy in Britain began in 1689, when king William and Queen Mary jointly accepted the Bill of Rights, and constitutional monarchy, of a monarchy with power limited by Parliament began.8.What is the role of the Monarchy in the British governmentThe sovereign is the symbol of the whole nation. In law, he/she is head of the executive, an integral part of the legislature, head of the judiciary, the commander-in-chief of all the armed forces of the crown and the “supreme governor” of the established church of England.9.What are the main functions of ParliamentThe main functions of Parliament are: (1) to pass laws; (2) to provide the means of carrying on the work of government by voting for taxation; (3) to examine government policy and administration, including proposals for expenditure; (4) to debate the major issues of the day.10.Why is the United States regarded as a “melting pot” ora “salad bowl”The United States “is not merely a nation but a nation of nations”. The immigran ts came in waves, including the Europeans, the Africans and the Asians. Therefore, America was described as a “melting pot”where various racial and ethnic groups were combined into one culture. Recently, Americans have been called a “salad bowl” in that pe ople of different races and ethnic groups mix harmoniously but at the same time keep their distinct culture and custom.11.What were the causes of the War of IndependenceThe economy in the thirteen colonies developed very fast and people wanted more power to detemine their own business. But the policy of the British government was to bring the development under control and to collect more taxes from the colonies. On April 19, 1775, on their way to Concord to seize the military supplies of the militia there, the British soldiers met armed militiamen. The shots were fired, the War of Independence began.12.Why did the . Civil War break out How did the war endIn the early 1800s, the Northern states turned from farming to manufacturing. Black slavery soon disappeared in the North. But things were different in the South. The South expanded both its agriculture and its slavery. The problem of slavery became a serious political issue. When Abraham Lincoln was elected President, the Southern states broke away and formed a new nation. Then Lincoln was determined to maintain the Union and the war broke out on April 12, 1861, Lincoln issued Emancipation Proclamation. Thus England and France stood by the Union’s side. Many black slaves joined the Union Army. After a series of battles, the South surrendered on April 9, 1865. The Civil Warended.13.What’s the system of checks and balancesThe U.S. government is divided into three branches, the legislative, the executive and the judicial, each has part of the powers but not all the power.

This called “checks and balances”.14.What are the functions of the CongressThe Congress has many functions, but the most central is the passage of law.

英语作文 英国工业革命
The Industrial Revolution,a pivotal period in British history,marked a significant shift from agrarian to industrial society.It began in the mid18th century and continued into the19th century,transforming not only the economic landscape but also the social and cultural fabric of the nation.Origins and Key Innovations:The Industrial Revolution started in Britain due to a confluence of factors,including abundant natural resources,a growing population,and the availability of capital.Key innovations such as the steam engine,developed by James Watt,revolutionized transportation and manufacturing.The mechanization of the textile industry,with inventions like the spinning jenny and the power loom,drastically increased production efficiency.Urbanization and Demographic Shifts:As industries grew,so did the need for labor.People moved from rural areas to urban centers in search of work,leading to rapid urbanization.Cities like Manchester and Birmingham expanded rapidly,becoming hubs of industrial activity.However,this growth also led to overcrowding,poor living conditions,and public health challenges. Economic Impact:The Industrial Revolution had a profound economic impact.It led to the rise of capitalism and the factory system,where workers were employed in large numbers to operate machinery.The increase in production and trade contributed to Britains economic dominance,earning it the moniker the workshop of the world.Social and Cultural Changes:The revolution also brought about significant social changes.The emerging working class faced harsh conditions,leading to the rise of labor movements and calls for social reform. The middle class,on the other hand,grew in prominence and influence,shaping cultural norms and values.Environmental Consequences:The Industrial Revolution had a considerable environmental impact.The increased use of coal for steam power led to air pollution and contributed to the onset of climate change. The landscape was altered by industrial development,with natural habitats being replaced by factories and urban sprawl.Technological Advancements:Technological advancements during this period were not limited to the textile and steam engine industries.Innovations in transportation,such as the development of the railwaysystem,facilitated the movement of goods and people,further integrating the national economy.Cultural Expression:The Industrial Revolution also influenced cultural expression.The Romantic movement, for instance,was partly a reaction to the industrialization,with poets and artists celebrating nature and rural life in contrast to the mechanized urban world. Legacy:The legacy of the Industrial Revolution is still felt today.It set the stage for modern industrial economies and continues to influence patterns of work,urban development, and global trade.The period also serves as a reminder of the need to balance industrial progress with social welfare and environmental sustainability.In conclusion,the British Industrial Revolution was a complex and transformative period that reshaped the nation and laid the groundwork for the modern world.Its effects were multifaceted,touching every aspect of society and leaving a lasting impact on the global stage.。
英美文学课总结
英美⽂学课总结English RomanticismEnglish Romanticism begins in 1798 with the publication of Wordsworth and Coleridge’s The Lyrical Ballads and ends in 1832 with Walter Scott’s death. William Blake and Robert Burns also belong to this literary genre, though they live prior to the Romantic period.English Romanticism is a revolt of the English imagination against the neoclassical reason. The French Revolution of 1789-1794 and the English Industrial Revolution exert great influence on English Romanticism. The romanticists express a negative attitude towards the existing social or political conditions. They place the individual at the center of art, as can be seen from Lord Byron’s Byronic Hero. The key words of English Romanticism are nature and imagination.English Romantic tend to be nationalistic, defending the greatest English writers. They argue that poetry should be free from all rules.Lake poetsWordsworth, Coleridge and Southey were known as Lake Poets because they lived and knew one another in the last few years of the 18th century in the district of the great lakes in Northwestern England. The former two published The Lyrical Ballads together in 1798, while all three of them had radical inclinations in their youth but later turned conservative and received pensions and poet laureateships from the aristocracy.Karl Marx likes Byron and Shelley very much. MU Dan(穆旦/查良铮),a renowned Chinese poet and translator , did splendid work to popularize Byron and Shelley in China.Other greatest Romantic poets are: John Keats, P.B. Shelley and G. G. Byron.Years ago, Wordsworth and Coleridge were labeled “negative romantic poets” while Byron and Shelley were hailed as “positive (revolutionary) Romantic poets”. Wordsworth and Coleridge’s literary achievements were underestimated for a long time.Feminist worksMary Wollstonecraft wrote A Vindication of the Rights of Woman in 1792.Gothic novel is a type of romantic fiction that predominates in the late 18th century and continues to show its influence in early 19th century. Its principal elements are violence, horror, and the supernatural. Frankenstein (1818) by Mary Shelley and The Mysteries of Udolpho (1794)by Ann Radcliffe are masterpieces of English gothic novel.English fiction gropes its way amidst the overwhelming Romantic poetry. It revives its popularity in the hands of Jane Austen & Walter Scott.Walter Scott is noted for his historical novel based on Scottish history and legends. He exerted great influence on European literature of his time.Jane Austen is the first and foremost English women novelist. Following the neoclassical tradition, she is unsurpassed in the description of uneventful everyday life.Essayists in English RomanticismEssayists Representative worksWilliam Hazlitt Familiar essaysCharles Lamb Essays of Elia; Tales from Shakespeare Coleridge Biographia LiterariaWilliam WordsworthWordsworth is the most representative poet of English Romanticism. He was labeled as “negative Romantic poet” by Karl Marx In 1795 he ,his sister Dorothy Wordsworth and Coleridge became “three people with one soul” in literary history.In 1798, Wordsworth and Coleridge published their Lyrical Ballads.His major worksWordsworth’s fame lies chiefly in his short poems. His short poems fall into 2 categories: poems about nature and poems about human life.His best known poems of nature include: The Daffodils(I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud), Tintern Abbey, To the Cuckoo, My Heart Leaps up, To a Butterfly, An Evening Walk, & The Sparrow’s Nest.His best known poems about human life include: Lucy Poems, The Solitary Reaper and The Old Cumberland Beggar, Michael, & To a Highland Girl.Wordsworth wrote many sonnets. His famous sonnets are: Earth Has Not Anything to Show More Fair (Written Upon Westminster Bridge), On the Extinction of the Venetian Republic, & Thought of a Briton on the Subjugation of Switzerland. His best known long poem is The Prelude.Brief CommentsWordsworth is the representative poet of English romanticismWordsworth’s poetry is distinguished by the simplicity and purity of hislanguage.Wordsworth’s theory on versification has exerted profound influence on laterpoets.

His heroes are more or lesspictures of himself. His hero is known as “Byronic Hero”, a proud, mysterious rebel figure of noble origin. For such a hero, the conflict is usually one of rebellious individual against outworn social systems and conventions.The figure is, to some extent, modeled on the life and personality of Byron.Byron’s poetry exerts great influence on the Romantic Movement. He standswith Shakespeare and Scott among the British writers who exert great influence over the mainland of Europe.P. B.

The relationship between English industrial revolution and the processing of Chinese modernizations
There is no denying the fact that if the English industrial revolution didn’t occur, we will never enter the modern civilization, which is based on the prosperity of material wealth. Especially, it has an even more enormous impact on us Chinese people. Now we are likely to go through the process of the industrialization typical in the Victorian age. From that point, we can say we are now benefiting from that revolution, though it firstly only brought us humiliation and sufferings.
Although we are going through the process in a higher stage, with the rapid development in science and technology, there are some significant resemblances that can not be neglected. In the present, the world’s distribution in produce is more and more sophisticated; china only takes the lowest part. Textile as one of china’s most important export production has brought china a lot of money. The situation is very similar with the UK. As we all known, in the early stage of the revolution the UK excelled in producing textile. From the world trade, owners of the textile mills have accumulated a lot of money, and then became the capitalists. Coal mining is also another major industry area which symbolized the UK’s progressing in modernizations. Owning the most coal in the world, coal mining is thriving, and supports the running of Chinese economy. Shanxi province became so rich through the producing of coal. In England it is Birmingham in that era get developed by this. So on this condition, our temporal life is becoming much easier for the basic needs. The social wealth is abundant. We can enjoy a life of higher quality. We are entering a heyday, a heyday that maybe seen in Tang dynasty. But in other sense, it is not so optimistic. In comparison with the era that the revolution goes through we can also see some astounding likeness.
The contradiction between the salary man and the capitalist is in ferment. The great gap between different statuses is huge. Exploitation is even more serous ever. It is common when a country is trying to gain more wealth. The incompetence of the social system, the government’s corruption and cruelty, the bottom of the social construction is suffering and withering and dying like weed, we can all see the reflection in English revolution. Maybe it is just the natural thing, people’s terminal want for money. As Carl Max’s description that the vampire’greedy for sucking blood.
No matter how, we are living in a better world. We should be grateful for the revolution which occurred in the UK in the 18th and 19th centuries, which refers to the mechanization of industry and the consequent changes in social and economic organization in Britain. It also opens a era. Since then, science and technology thrives. The efficiency of producing is greatly improved. Our way of living and working and entertainment is totally changed. When we are walking around in Chinese street, we will be dizzied to see the bright shape of the city. It can not be thought if the revolution didn’t occur.
