The Jazz Age

The Jazz Age

The Jazz AgeIn 1920's America - known as the Jazz Age, the Golden Twenties or the Roaring Twenties - everybody seemed to have money. The nightmare that was the Wall Street Crash of October 1929, was inconceivable right up until it happened. The 1920’s saw a break with the traditional set-up in America. The Great War had destroyed old perceived social conventions and new ones developed.The young set themselves free especially, the young women. They shocked the older generation with their new hair style (a short bob) and the clothes that they wore were often much shorter than had been seen and tended to expose their legs and knees. The wearing of what were considered skimpy beach wear in public could get the Flappers, as they were known, arrested for indecent exposure. They wore silk stockings rolled just above the knee and they got their hair cut at male barbers. The President of Florida University said the low cut gowns andshort skirts "are born of the devil they are carrying the present generation to destruction".An advert for lipstick - Flapper styleThe Flappers also went out without a man to look after them, went to all-night parties, drove motor cars, smoked in public and held men’s hands without wearing gloves. Mothers formed the Anti-Flirt League to protest against the acts of their daughters. But after the horror of the First World War, the youngergeneration mistrusted the older generation and ‘did their own thing’ which flew in the face of the establishment.The person who the Flappers most looked up to was Clara Bow - the vamp in the film "It".Linked to the growth of an alternate generation, was the growth in jazz. This lead to new dances being created which further angered the older generation. The Charleston, One Step and Black Bottom were only for the young and the last one angered the establishment by name alone. The most famous jazzmen were Louis Armstrong, Fats Waller and Benny Goodman. The combination of the new music, new dances and new fashions outraged many:Along with jazz went the ‘crazies’ when people would do crazy things for fun such as sitting on top of a flag pole for as long as possible; marathon dances that went on until everybody had dropped and wing flying when you stood strapped onto the wing of a flying plane until it landed.This was also the era of great sports champions such as Babe Ruth the baseball player and Bobby Jones "the greatest amateur golfer of all time."The 1920’s made Hollywood. 100 million people a week went to the movies. In th e 1910’s the stars of movies were never named (especially true for women) but by the 1920’s stars were world famous. For many films, the star was more important than the film itself and they could earn a fortune. Slapstick comedy was dominated by Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Laurel and Hardy and Fatty Arbuckle. The leading women were Clara Bow and Mary Pickford and the leading male star was Rudolf Valentino. When he died in 1926 aged just 31 people queued for miles to see his embalmed body and riots broke out.The decade saw the first "talkie" - "The Jazz Singer" starring Al Jolson. Many silent screen stars lost their jobs as their voices sounded too strange or their accents were difficult to understand.The stars lived lavish lifestyles - Beverley Hills was the place to live and they cultivated in peoples minds the belief that you could succeed in America regardless of who you were.Even murderous gang bosses achieved stardom. The most famous of all was Al Capone - the gangster boss who all but controlled Chicago. His fame rivaled that of Hollywood's superstars.Al CaponeIn 1918, Prohibition had been introduced into America. This law banned the sale, transportation and manufacture of alcohol. However, there was a ready market for alcohol throughout the 1920's and the gangsters provided it. Capone's earnings at their peak stood at $60 million a year from alcohol sales alone with $45 million from other illegal ventures. Notorious in Chicago, Capone achieved national celebrity status when he appeared on the front of the celebrated "Time" magazine.。

柯林·莫尔好莱坞默片中灰姑娘的喜剧性展演

柯林·莫尔好莱坞默片中灰姑娘的喜剧性展演

作者简介:李莹莹,贵州财经大学副教授,文学博士,从事文艺美学与批评、视觉文化、电影改编等研究。

① flappergirl这一词语最早见于英国,是雏妓的代称。

1910年代之前,该词逐渐成为即将进入青春期,身体性征发育尚不明显的少女的代名词;1910年代之后,flappergirl与tomboy一起用来形容那些身材平板,接受过一定教育,喜爱运动的女性。

在1920年美国作家菲茨杰拉德(F.S.Fitzgerald)的小说集《飞来波女郎与哲学家》(FlappersandPhilosophers)出版之后,flappergirl基本成为了20世纪20年代美国年轻女性的代名词。

关于flappergirl具体的演变参见LINDAS.Lostgirls:thein ventionoftheflapper(London:ReaktionbooksLtd,2017).② 爵士乐时代是美国作家菲茨杰拉德在其文章《爵士乐时代的回声》(EchoesoftheJazzAge)中对美国自1919年到1929年这一黄金年代的命名,他认为“那是奇迹频生的年代,那是艺术的年代,那是挥霍无度的年代,那是嘲讽的年代”。

更重要的是,他直接将飞来波女郎视为这个时代的代表。

详见菲茨杰拉德:《崩溃》,黄昱宁、包慧怡译,上海译文出版社,2011年,第21-35页。

③ 关于flappergirl名称翻译的思考源自2017年在上海召开的“默片中的女性”会议的讨论,特此对参与讨论者表示感谢。

柯林·莫尔:好莱坞默片中灰姑娘的喜剧性展演李莹莹(贵州财经大学文学院,贵州贵阳 550025) 摘 要:柯林·莫尔是20世纪20年代好莱坞电影中“飞来波女郎”(flappergirl)的典型代表,相较于克拉拉·鲍和露易丝·布鲁克斯的性感形象,柯林·莫尔扮演的多为保守的“飞来波女郎”,《艾拉·辛迪思》中的辛迪思就是其中的典型代表。

The Jazz Age(美国的爵士乐时代)

The Jazz Age(美国的爵士乐时代)

The Jazz Age
• The Jazz Age describes the period of the 1920s and 1930s.The 1920s began with high hopes. World War One was over. The twenties ended with a huge drop in stock market prices that began the Great Depression. • The nation's values had changed in this period. Many Americans were concerned mainly with having a good time and doing what you will. American society enjoyed unprecedented levels of prosperity. People broke the law by drinking alcohol and lived in a corrupt society. They danced to jazz music, and women wore short skirts.
• 这既是一个浮华享乐的年代,又是人们尤其是年轻人普遍感到 迷惘失落的年代,“一切神明统统死光,一切仗都已打完,以 往关于人的一切信念完全动摇。”这还是美国文化变革转型、 美国文学蓬勃发展的年代。

The book
also well illustrated the Jazz Age full of decadence and excess. E.g. In Gatsby‟s party, the guests hardly knew the host and go without the invitation, talking some trivial things. All of these reflected the purposelessness and loneliness of these modern men beneath the mask of relaxation and joy.
Literature conventions:
American Dream early Puritans, Franklin = Martin Eden/ The Great Gatsby/ The death of a salesman 2. escape/ innocence encounters experience (the sophisticated world) Bumppo, Huck, The Catcher in the Rye [Holden] Rabbit, Run (Updike)
West--East


When the early explorers first came to A, escaping the corruption of the old world in search of the promise of a new world, they traveled from east to west. Now, America itself is corrupted, so the characters in The Great Gatsby travel from west to east, in search of wealth and sophistication, leaving the moral values and stability of the west behind. It is this eastern part which is called a “valley of ashes”, a place where morals are left out and only superficial, material-driven people can live in peace.

了不起的盖茨比名句

了不起的盖茨比名句

菲茨杰拉德的《了不起的盖茨比》,摘录书中比较经典的句子:Chapter 11. 每当你觉得想要批评什么人的时候,你切要记着,这个世界上的人并非都具备你禀有的条件。

Whenever you feel like criticizing any one, just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.2.人们的善恶感一生下来就有差异。

A sense of the fundamental decencies is parceled out unequally at birth.3.人们的品行有的好像建筑在坚硬的岩石上,有的好像建筑在泥沼里,不过超过一定的限度,我就不在乎它建在什么之上了。

Conduct may be founded on the hard rock or the wet marshes, but after a certain point I don’t care what it’s founded on.Chapter 2这时,天色已经暗了下来,我们这排高高地俯瞰着城市的灯火通明的窗户,一定让街头偶尔抬头眺望的人感到了,人类的秘密也有其一份在这里吧,我也是这样的一个过路人,举头望着诧异着。

我既在事内又在事外,几杯永无枯竭的五彩纷呈的生活所吸引,同时又被其排斥着。

Yet high over the city our line of yellow windows must have contributed their share of human sec recy to the casual watcher in the darkening streets, and I was him too, looking up and wondering.I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life.Chapter 31. 他理解体谅地笑了——这笑比理解和体谅有更多的含义。

弗朗西斯斯科特基菲茨杰拉德—外文翻译

弗朗西斯斯科特基菲茨杰拉德—外文翻译

弗朗西斯斯科特基菲茨杰拉德—外文翻译1. 弗朗西斯·斯科特基·菲茨杰拉德生于1896年9月24日,他的名字源自他的祖先,美国国歌“星条旗”作者弗朗西斯·斯科特基。

菲茨杰拉德在明尼苏达州的圣保罗长大成人。

他虽然聪明,但在学校却成绩不佳,于1911年被送到了新泽西州的一所寄宿学校就读。

尽管他是个平庸的学生,但还是设法于1913年进入了普林斯顿大学。

他的整个大学时光都被学业上的困难和冷漠所困扰,他也一直未毕业,在1917年入伍,当时第一次世界大战已接近尾声。

菲茨杰拉德成为一名少尉,驻防在亚拉巴马州蒙哥马利的谢里登兵营。

在那里他结识并爱上了一位叫泽尔妲·赛耶的17岁任性的美女。

泽尔妲终于同意嫁给他,但是她那对财富、享乐与安逸的极强的欲望使他们的婚礼一直推迟到他能够证明自己是个成功者时才举行。

随着小说《这一半天堂》于1920年出版,菲茨杰拉德成了文学界的轰动人物,赚到了足以说服泽尔妲嫁给他的金钱和名誉。

菲茨杰拉德早年的许多事件都在他最著名的小说,1925年出版的《了不起的盖茨比》中有所体现。

正想菲茨杰拉德一样,尼克·卡拉韦也是个富有思想的年轻人。

尼克是明尼苏达州人,就读于一所常春藤联合会大学(照他自己的话说是耶鲁大学),战后移居纽约。

和菲茨杰拉德一样,杰伊·盖茨比也是个崇拜财富和奢华的敏感的年轻人,也是在驻防在南方的一个兵营时爱上了一位漂亮的年轻女子。

成为名人之后,菲茨杰拉德堕入了一种放荡不羁、不计后果、花天酒地、充满颓废的生活方式,与此同时,他竭力写作赚钱以此来取悦泽尔妲。

盖茨比同样也在尚年轻之时便聚敛了大量财富。

他一心聚财,醉心于举行宴会,深信这些能够使他赢得黛西的爱。

不过,随着“繁荣的20年代”的灿烂淡入大萧条的黑暗,泽尔妲换上了精神崩溃症,菲茨杰拉德则酗酒难以自拔,这妨碍了他的写作。

他于1934年出版了《夜色温柔》,并向《星期六晚间邮报》出售短篇小说,以便维持他奢侈的生活。

了不起的盖茨比.第一章
Generation)第一次世界大战后美国的一个文学流派。 20世纪20年代初,侨居巴黎的美国女作家格·斯泰因对海明威说:“你们都是 迷惘的一代。”海明威把这句话作为他第一部长篇小说《太阳照常升起》的题 词,“迷惘的一代”从此成为这批虽无纲领和组织但有相同的创作倾向的作家 的称谓。所谓“迷惘”,是指他们共有的彷徨和失望情绪。“迷惘的一代”尽 管是一个短暂的潮流,但它在美国文学史上的地位是确定了的。
