英美文学术语

英美文学术语

1. Allusion (典故)is a reference without explicit identification, to a literary or historical person, place, or event, or to another literary work or passage. Most literary allusions are intended to be recognized by the generally educated readers of the aut hor’s time, but some are aimed at a special group.2. Atmosphere(氛围): the prevailing mood or feeling of a literary work. Atmosphere is often developed, at least in part, through descriptions of setting. Such descriptions help to create an emotional climate to establish the reader’s expectations and attitudes.3. Climax:as a rhetorical device it means an ascending sequence of importance. As a literary term, it can also refer to the point of greatest intensity, interest, or suspense in a story’s turning poi nt. The action leading to the climax and the simultaneous increase of tension in the plot are known as the rising action. All action after the climax is referred to as the falling action, or resolution. The term crisis is sometimes used interchangeably with climax.4. Anticlimax(突降):it denotes a writer’s deliberate drop from the serious and elevated to the trivial and lowly, in order to achieve a comic or satiric effect. It is a rhetorical device in English.5. Characters(人物)are the persons represented in a dramatic or narrative work, who are interpreted by the reader as being endowed with particular moral, intellectual, and emotional qualities by inferences from the dialogues, actions and motivations. E. M. Forster divides characters into two types: flat character, which is presented without much individualizing detail; and round character, which is complex in temperament and motivation and is represented with subtle particularity.6. Comedy:(喜剧)in general, a literary work that ends happily with a healthy, amicable armistice between the protagonist and society.7. Farce (闹剧)is a type of comedy designed to provoke the audience to simple and hearty laughter. To do so it commonly employs highly exaggerated types of characters and puts them into improbable and ludicrous situations.of other meters.8. Hyperbole(夸张):this figure of speech called hyperbole is bold overstatement, or the extravagant exaggeration of fact or of possibility. It may be used either for serious or ironic or comic effect.9. Understatement(轻描淡写):this figure of speech deliberately represents something as very much less in magnitude or importance than it really is, or is ordinarily considered to be. The effect is usual ly ironic.10. Irony(反讽):This term derives from a character in a Greek comedy. In most of the modern cr itical uses of the term “irony”, there remains the root sense of dissembling or hiding what is actually the case; not, however, in order to deceive, but to achieve rhetorical or artistic effects.11. Theme(主题):The term is usually applied to a general concept or doctrine, whether implicit or asserted, which an imaginative work is designed to incorporate and make persuasive to the reader.12. Multiple Point of View (多重视角):It is one of the literary techniques William Faulkner used, which shows within the same story how the characters reacted differently to the same person or the same situation. The use of this technique gave the story a circular form wherein one event was the center, with various pointsof view radiating from it. The multiple points of view technique makes the reader recognize the difficulty of arriving at a true judgment.13. Flashback(闪回):interpolating narratives or scenes which represent events that happened before the time at which the work opened; for example, it is used in Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman.14. Plot(情节):The plot in a dramatic or narrative work is constituted by its events and actions, as these are rendered and ordered toward achieving particular artistic and emotional effects.15. Short Story: A fictional prose take of no specified length,but too short to be published as a volume on its own.A short story will normally concentrate on a single event with only one or two characters,more economically than a novel's sustained exploration of social background.There are similar fictional forms of greater antiquity,but the short story,as we know it,flourished in the magazines of the 19th and early 20th centuries,especially in the USA,which has a particularly strong tradition.16.Narration: Like description, narration is a part of conversation and witting. Narration is the major technique used in expository witting, such as autobiography. Successful narration must grow out of good observation,to-the-point selection from observation, and clear arrangement of details in logical sequence, which is usually chronological. Narration gives an exact picture of things as they occur.17. Renaissance:The term originally indicated a revival of classical (Greek and Roman) arts and sciences after the dark ages of medieval obscurantism18. Symbol: A symbol is a sign which suggests more than its literal meaning. In other words, a symbol is both literal and figurative. A symbol is a way of telling a story and a way of conveying meaning. The best symbols are those that are believable in the lives of the characters and also convincing as they convey a meaning beyond the literal level of the story. If the symbol is obscure or ambiguous, then the very obscurity and the ambiguity may also be part of the meaning of the story.19. Symbolism:Symbolism is the writing technique of using symbols. It’s a literary movement that arose in France in the last half of the 19th century and that greatly influenced many English writers, particularly poets, of the 20th century. It enables poets to compress a very complex idea or set of ideas into one image or even one word. It’s one of the most powerful devices that poets employ in creation.20. Theme; The general idea or insight about life that a writer wishes to express in a literary work. All the elements of a literary work-plot, setting, characterization, and figurative language-contribute to the development of its theme.21. Tone: The attitude a writer takes toward his or her subject, characters, or audience. The tone of a speech ora piece of writing can be formal or intimate; outspoken or reticent; abstruse or simple; solemn or playful; angry or loving; serious or ironic.22. Tragedy: In general, a literary work in which the protagonist meets an unhappy or disastrous23. Motif: A recurring feature (such as a name, an image, or a phrase) in a work of literature. A motif generally contributes in some way to the theme of a short story, novel, poem, or play. At times, motif is used to refer to some commonly used plot or character type in literature.24. Motivation:The reasons, either stated or implied, for a character’s behavior. To make a story believable, a writer must provide characters with motivation sufficient to explain what they do. Characters may be motivated by outside events, or they may be motivated by inner needs or fears.25.Narrator: One who narrates, or tells, a story. A story may be told by a first-person narrator, someone who is either a major or minor character in the story. Or a story may be told by a third-person narrator, someone who is not in the story at all. The word narrator can also refer to a character in a drama who guides the audience through the play, often commenting on the action and sometimes participating in it.26. Novel: A book-length fictional prose narrative, having may characters and often a complex plot.27.Plot: Plot is the first and most obvious quality of a story. It is the sequence of events or actions in a short story, novel, play, or narrative poem. For the reader, the plot is the underlying pattern in a work of fiction, the structural element that gives it unity and order. For the writer, the plot is the guiding principle of selection and arrangement. Conflict, a struggle of some kind, is the most important element of plot. Each event in the plot is related to the conflict, the struggle that the main character undergoes. Conflict may be external or internal, and there may be more than one form of conflict in a work. As the plot advances, we learn how the conflict is resolved. Action is generally introduced by the exposition, information essential to understanding the situation. The action rises to a crisis, or climax. This movement is called the rising action. The falling action, which follows the crisis, shows a reversal of fortune for the protagonist. The denouement or resolution is the moment when the conflict ends and the outcome of the action is clear.28. Point of view: The vantage point from which a narrative is told. There are two basic points of view:first-person and third-person. In the first-person point of view, the story is told by one of the characters in his or her own words. The first-person point of view is limited. In the third-person point of view, the narrator is not a character in the story. The narrator may be an omniscient. On the other hand, the third-person narrator mighttell a story from the point of view of only one character in the story.29. Protagonist: The central character of a drama, novel, short story, or narrative poem. The protagonist is the character on whom the action centers and with whom the reader sympathizes most. Usually the protagonist strives against an opposing force, or antagonist , to accomplish something30. Diction:A writer’s choice of words, particularly for clarity, effectiveness, and precision.31. Exp osition: (1) That part of a narrative or drama in which important background information is revealed. (2) It is the kind of writing that is intended primarily to present information. Exposition is one of the major formsof discourse. The most familiar form it takes is in essays. Exposition is also that part of a play in which important background information is revealed to the audience.32. Figurative language: Language that is not intended to be interpreted in a literal sense. By appealing to the imagination, figurative language provides new ways of looking at the world. Figurative language consists of such figures of speech as hyperbole, metaphor, metonymy, oxymoron矛盾修饰法, personification, simile, and synecdoche.33. Figure of speech: A word or an expression that is not meant to be interpreted in a literal sense. The most common kinds of figures of speech—simile, metaphor, personification, and metonymy—involve a comparison between unlike things.34. Foreshadowing: The use of hints or clues in a narrative to suggest what will happen later. Writers use foreshadowing to create interest and to build suspense. Sometimes foreshadowing also prepares the reader for the ending of the story.35. Irony: 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. Three kinds of irony are (1) verbal irony, in which a writer or speaker says one thing and means something entirely different; (2) dramatic irony, in which a reader or an audience perceives something that a character in the story or play does not know; (3) irony of situation, in which the writer shows a discrepancy between the expected results of some action or situation and its actual results.36. Antagonist: A person or force opposing the protagonist in a narrative; a rival of the hero or heroine.37. Denouement结局: The outcome of a plot. The denouement is that part of a play, short story, novel, or narrative poem in which conflicts are resolved or unraveled, and mysteries and secrets connected with the plot are explained.。

Anti-climax

Anti-climax

Anti-climax(突降;反高潮)I. DefinitionThe usually sudden transition in writing or speaking from an idea of significance or dignity to an idea trivial or ludicrous by comparison especially at the close of a series, sentences, or passage.从重要的、崇高的话题突然降至不重要的、卑微的话题,即从高潮一下子降到低潮,给人以轻松、幽默、诙谐等感觉。

Anticlimax(突降)在语义上的急转直下往往出人意料之外,令人猝不及防。

渐进句和突降句

渐进句和突降句

渐进句和突降句渐进句和突降句是英语句子构建的两种不同方式,它们在句子的发展和信息呈现方面具有不同的特点。

1、渐进句(Cumulative sentence)渐进句是指一个句子由一个基础句式引出以后,再逐渐增加具体细节(通常是以独立结构和分词短语形式出现),使基础句的内容得到补充或深化。

这种句子表达的意思逐渐进一步说明。

例如:The fall came early that year,the trees turning bare overnight,their yellow leaves scattered by the wind...(那年秋天来得早,一夜之间树木变得光秃秃的,黄色的树叶被风吹得满地都是……)这个句子中,基础句式“The fall came early that year”被后续的细节“the trees turning bare overnight”和“their yellow leaves scattered by the wind”所补充和深化,呈现出一种逐渐进一步说明的语气。

2、突降句(Anticlimax)突降句是指句子开始时先呈现出一种高度的紧张或期待状态,然后在句子结尾时突然降低或解构这种状态,从而达到一种幽默或讽刺的效果。

这种句子通常使用相反或出人意料的结尾来颠覆读者或听者的预期。

例如:“I was so excited to open my gift from my mother. It was a new pair of socks.”(我非常兴奋地打开我妈妈送给我的礼物,结果是一双新袜子。

)这个句子开始时通过强调“我非常兴奋”来建立一种期待,但结尾却突然降低这种期待,从而达到一种幽默的效果。

总的来说,渐进句和突降句在句子构建和信息呈现方面具有不同的特点。

渐进句通过逐渐增加细节来深化句子的意义,而突降句则通过颠覆读者的预期来达到幽默或讽刺的效果。

浅析《夜莺与玫瑰》中的几种主要修辞手法

浅析《夜莺与玫瑰》中的几种主要修辞手法

浅析《夜莺与玫瑰》中的几种主要修辞手法文章介绍:《夜莺与玫瑰》是一篇童话,故事讲述了一位年轻的学生渴望得到一朵红玫瑰送给教授的女儿,这样她会答应与他跳舞。

他因找不到红玫瑰而伤心苦恼,为了使他获得爱情,夜莺唱了整整一夜的歌,用玫瑰刺刺穿自己的心脏,用自己的鲜血染红了一朵最为娇艳的红玫瑰。

年轻的学生拿着这朵玫瑰送给心上人,可她却说内廷大臣的侄子的珠宝比鲜花更值钱。

失望的学生认清了爱情的无聊本质,扔掉玫瑰,回去读书了。

这个故事歌颂了夜莺为了别人的幸福与快乐而牺牲自己的高尚情操,同时也鞭挞了人类社会的庸俗和肮脏。

作品最后,作者留下了一句令人感慨的一句话“爱情诚如手中玫瑰,娇艳名贵,但如果你不再需要它时,便是一分不值。

”作者是奥斯卡·王尔德,他是英国著名的作家、剧作家、散文家和诗人,是19世纪末英国唯美主义代表人物之一,“为艺术而艺术”的倡导者,他坚信美可以拯救社会和人心。

《夜莺与玫瑰》这部作品极为感人,作品语言生动优美,辞藻华丽,诗意浓郁,被认为是诗的散文化,作者运用了大量的修辞手法和写作手法。

一、拟人(Personification)Personification is a figure in which inanimate objects or abstractions are endowed with human form.拟人是把人类的特点、特性加于外界事物之上,使之人格化,使文章的表达更加生动形象,让阅读者更真巧的体会到文章的意境及作者所要表达的思想感情,同时也使文章易懂但不通俗。

在《夜莺与玫瑰》中,作品通篇使用了拟人的手法来修饰文中的树木、花鸟等,作者给它们都赋予了人类的思想感情,它们就像我们身边活生生的各类人群一样说着、笑着、哭着、思考着、行动着,让人倍感熟悉与亲切。

如:例1.“Her e at last is a true lover," said the Nightingale. "Night after night have I sung of him, though I knew him not: night after night have I told his story to the stars and now I see him…”例2.But the Oak-tree understood and felt sad, for he was very fond of the little Nightingale, who had built her nest in his branches. “Sing me one last song,” he whispered; “I shall feel lonely when you are gone.”例3.Then she gave one last burst of music. The white Moon heard it, and she forgot the dawn, and lingered on in the sky.在例1中,作者赋予了夜莺以自己的思想,借夜莺之嘴写出了作者对真爱的追求;例2是夜莺做了以死换红玫瑰的决定后,作者描写了橡树的感受,表现出了橡树对夜莺的疼爱和理解,让人深刻感受到生离死别的无奈与痛苦以及朋友的有力支持。

英语的修辞可以分为消极修辞和积极修辞两大类

英语的修辞可以分为消极修辞和积极修辞两大类

英语的修辞可以分为消极修辞和积极修辞两大类。

一、消极修辞(Passive Rhetoric Techniques)它主要指那些没有相对固定格式的修辞性写作技巧,它与语法、语言结构和词汇的关系密切,只是为了修辞和立意新颖的缘故,对之做了一些调整。

举一种情况进行说明:为了增加文采,强化文章的表现力,常常避免重复使用同一个词汇,而另选他词。

这种无固定格式可循的消极修辞手段被称为Elegant Variation (求雅换词)。

如在Elizabeth Razzi写的题为10 Ways to Lose Pounds 的文章中,“减肥”的表达竟有8种,文笔活泼,文采灿然:1. Try to shed a few extra pounds? 2. Studies show these efforts may shave off the pounds quickly. 3. Here are ten simple strategies that can help melt away your fat forever. 4. …like a logical way to peel off a few pounds. 5. …roughly the amount needed to burn off one pound. 6. You must eat less to lose weight. 7. A key obstacle to dropping extra pounds is after-dinner snacking. 8. 10 Ways to Lose Pounds. 以上8句中的斜体字让我们欣赏了英语词汇的活力与风采。

遗憾的是,大部分精彩的用词不能直译。

求雅换词的手法之一是大字小用,或小词大用。

如:Don’t take the low-fat label as a license to eat. 句子写得精彩,最难忘的是其中license一词。

英语修辞格译法(16)

英语修辞格译法(16)

第九章英语修辞格的译法(教学安排:2课时)修辞格(figure of speech)是提高语言表达效果的语言艺术。

它能使语言生动形象、具体活泼,给人以美的享受。

要翻译好英语修辞格,首先要弄清其特点、弄清英汉两种语言在这方面的异同,然后根据具体情况采用恰当的技巧进行翻译。

翻译英语修辞格力求译文能有效地再现原文的修辞效果,否则译文即使在大意上与原文差不多,也会使原文的精神和风格受损,削弱语言的表达力。

一般说来,修辞格的翻译原则是形似不如神似重要。

要做到这一点有时可以采取直译,因为英汉两种语言在修辞手法上存在某些惊人的相似之处;但有时仅靠直译是不行的,因为英汉两种语言还存在着许多差异。

无视这些差异而采用直译不但不能保持原文中修辞格的神韵,反而会歪曲原作的意思,造成译文语言晦涩难懂。

这时译者就得借助其他翻译技巧,根据具体情况灵活地改换原文的某些修辞手法,使译文符合译入语的语言规范和表述习惯。

大致说来修辞格的翻译法有三:直译法、意译法和直译加注法。

但是,不管采用什么方法,都应尽量保留原修辞格的语言文化特色,努力传递出各种辞格的结构美、意韵美和音韵美。

一、Simile(明喻)simile与汉语的明喻基本相同,用某一事物或情境来比拟另一个事物或情境,使其变抽象为具体、化深奥为浅显、化陌生为熟悉,使描写更加生动形象。

英语simile 的比喻词一般是like, as(……as)等, 汉语明喻的比喻词通常是“好像”、“仿佛”、“一样”、“犹如”、“若”、“似”等。

例如:例1原文:They are like streetcars running contentedly on their rails.译文:1.直译当英语和汉语明喻中的喻义和喻体相对应时,可以采取直译。

例2原文:Among so many well-dressed and cultured people, the country girl felt like a fish out of water.译文:例3原文:Mrs. Macbeth has a heart as hard as flint.译文:例4原文:Previously, if I had been really interested in a book, I would race from page to page, eager to know what came next. Now, I decide, I had to become a miser with words and stretch every sentence like a poor man spending his last dollar.译文:例5as cold as ice as light as feather as bold as a lionas rapid as lightening as hungry as a wolf applause like thundersas sly as a fox as slow as a turtle as busy as a bee as dirty and greedy as a pig 2.改变喻体当英汉明喻中的喻义相同而喻体不同时,翻译时需要改变喻体。
