欧洲文化入门

欧洲文化入门1.What did the Roman have in common with the Greeks?And what was the chief difference between them?1)The Romans had a lot in common with the Greeks.Both peoples had traditions rooted in the idea of the citizen-assembly,hostile to monarchy and to servility.Their religions were alike enough for most of their deities to be readily identified—Greek Zeus with Roman Jupiter,Greek Aphrodite with Roman Venus,and so on—and their myths to be fused. Their languages worked in similar ways and were ultimately related, both being members of the Indo-European language family which stretches from Bangladesh to Iceland.(2)There was one big difference.The Romans built up a vast empire. The Greeks didn’t,excepted for the brief moment of Alexander’s conquests,which soon disintegrated.1.What was the Hebrew’s major contribution to world civilization?The history of the Hebrews was handed down orally from one generation to another in the form of folktales and stories,which were recorded later in the Old Testament,which still later became the first part of the Christian Bible.The Hebrews’major contribution to world civizalation wan Judasam.2.Why do we say Judaism and Christianity are closely related?⑴it was the Jewish tradition which gave birth to Christianity;⑵both originated in Palestine.1.What happened in Western Europe after the decline of the RomanEmpire?After the Roman Empire lost its predominance,a great manyGermanic Kingdoms began to grow into the nations know as England,France, Italy,and Germany in its place.These nations of Western Europe were in the scene of frequent wars and invasions.The political unity had given way to widespread destruction and confusion.Hunger and disease killed many lives and village fell into ruin and great areas of land lay waste.There was no central government to keep the order.The only organization that seemed to unite Europe was the Christian church. Christianity was almost the all and the one of Medieval lives in western Europe and took lead in politics,law,art,and learning for hundreds years.2.What were the cultural characteristics of the period from500to1000?Above all,the cultural characters of this period were the heritage and achievement of Roman culture and the emergence of Hebrew and Gothic culture.1.What made Italy the birthplace of the Renaissance?Because of its geographical position,foreign trade developed early in Italy.This brought Italy into contact with other cultures and gave rise to urban economy and helped Italy accumulate wealth which was anessential factor for the flowering of art and literature.For two centuries beginning from the late15th century,Florence was the golden city which gave birth to a whole generation of poets,scholars, artists and sculptors.There was in Florence a revival of interest in classical learning and rising of humanist ideas.And to spread the new ideas,libraries and academies were founded.In the15th century printing was invented and helped to spread humanist ideas.2.What are the main elements of humanism?How are these elementsreflected in art and literature during the Italian Renaissance? Humanist is the essence of Renaissance.Humanists in renaissance believed that human beings had rights to pursue wealth and pleasure and they admires the beauty of human body.This belief ran counter to the medieval ascetical idea of poverty and stoicism,and shifted man’s interest from Christianity to humanity,from religion to philosophy,from heaven to earth,from the beauty of God to the beauty of human in all its joy,senses and feeling.The philosophy of humanism is reflected in the art and literature during the Italian Renaissance in the literature works of Boccaccio and Petrarch and in the art of Giotto,Brunelleschi,Donatello,Giorgione,daVinci,Michelangelo,Raphael,and Titian,etc.In their works they did not stress death and other world but call on man to live and work for the present.DIVISION ONE1.战争双方:1200B.C Greece(希腊)and Troy(特洛伊）The5th centry B.C colsed with civil war between Athens（雅典）and Sparta in Greece（希腊）.146B.C.the Romans conquered Greece。

Greek culture reached a high point of development in the5th century B.C.What marked the high point of development in Greek culture in the 5th century B.C.?1). The high point of development in Greek culture was marked by (a)the successful repulse of the Persian invasion early in the5th century B.C., (b) the establishment of democracy and (c) the flourishing of science, philosophy, literature, art and historical writing in Athens（雅典）.2). the 5th century B.C. closed with civil war between Athens andSparta（斯巴达） in Greece.3). in the second half of the 4th century B.C., all Greece wasbrought under the rule of Alexander, King of Macedon（马其顿王国）.4). in 146 B.C. the Romans conquered the Greece.2. Social and Political StructureWhat were the main features of ancient Greek society?1). Athens was a democracy, where only the adult male citizens hadthe rights.2). The economy of Athens rested on an immense amount of slave labor.3). The Greeks loved sports. Once every four years, they had a big festival on Olympus Mount which included contests of sports.4). Revised in 1896, the Games have become the world’s foremost amateur sports competition.3. Homer (about 700 B. C.)（荷马）What did Homer do?（荷马史诗名词解释？）1). Ancient Greeks considered Homer to be the author of their epics:the Iliad《伊利亚特》and the Odyssey《奥德赛》.2). Homer probably lived around 700 B.C.3). The Iliad and the Odyssey are not about events of Homer’s own time, but about great men and wars about a remoter age, probably inthe period of 1200—1100 B.C.Drama1). Early in their remote past, the Greeks started to perform playsat religious festivals.2). Out of these religions a powerful drama developed in the 5thcentury B.C.3). Performances were given in open-air theatres, with the audience sitting on stone benches and looking down at the stage from three sides.Outstanding dramatists1). The outstanding dramatists of ancient Greece were Aeschylus（埃斯库罗斯）, Sophocles（索福克勒斯）, Euripides（欧里庇得斯） and Aristophanes（阿里斯托芬）.A. Aeschylus (525—456B.C.)a. Aeschylus is noted for his vivid character portrayal and majestic poetry.b. Aeschylus wrote plays such as Prometheus Bound《被缚的普罗米修斯》, Persians《波斯人》 and Agamemnon《阿伽门农》.B. Sophocles (496—406B.C.)a. Sophocles was the author of plays like Oedipus the King《奥狄普斯王》,Electra《伊莱克特拉》 and Antigone《安提戈涅》.b. Oedipus the King is the story of a man who unknowingly committed a terrible sin by killing his father and marrying his mother.c. The Austrian psychiatrist Sigmund Freud’s term “the Oedipus complex”（奥狄普斯情结） was also derived from Sophocles’s play.C. Euripides(484—406B.C.)a. Euripides wrote mainly about women in such plays as Andromache Medea and Trojan Women. Less heroic more like ordinary peopleb. Euripides may be called the first writer of “problem plays”.c. 19th century, Elizabath called him Euripides the humanD. ComedyAristophanes(about 450—380B.C.)1). Aristophanes wrote such plays as Frogs《蛙》,Clouds《云》,Wasps《黄蜂》 and Birds《鸟》.PhilosophersA. Socrates (about 470—399B.C.)苏格拉底a. We known Socrates chiefly through what Plato recorded of him inhis famous Dialogues.b. The method of argument Socrates used in exposing fallacies has come to be known as the dialectical method（ie the method of argument, by questions and answers.).c. In 399BC, at the age of seventy Socrates was put on trial on a charge of “injuring the city” by not acknowledging its gods andcorrupting the young. This trial was recorded by Plato in the dialogue “The Apology of Socrates”.B. Plato (about 428—348 B.C.)柏拉图a. Plato’s Dialogues《对话录》 are important not only asphilosophical writing but also as imaginative literature.b. Of the Dialogues Plato wrote, 27 have survived, including the Apology《申辩》,Symposium《会饮篇》或译为《飨宴篇》, and theRepublic《理想国》.c. Plato’s Apology was about Socrates’ defense of himself at the trial.d. Plato’s Symposium dealt with beauty and love.e. Plato’s Republic was about the idea state ruled by a philosopher but barring poets.f. Plato’s comprehensive system of philosophy dealt with, amongother things, the problem of how, in the complex, ever-changing world, men were to obtain knowledge.g. The reply Plato gave (to the problem of how men were to obtain knowledge) was: men have knowledge because of the existence ofcertain general “ideas”, like beauty, truth, goodness.h. According to Plato, only such “ideas” as beauty, truth, goodness are completely real, while the physical world is only relatively real.i. Plato’s philosophy is called Idealism because in his system of philosophy only such “ideas” as beauty, truth and goodness are regarded as completely real while the physical world is regarded as only relatively real.C. Aristotle (384—322B. C.)亚里士多德a. Of Aristotle’s numerous works, the following are perhaps still important to scholars and general readers alike: Ethics《伦理学》, Politics《政治学》,Poetics《诗学》, and Rhetoric《修辞学》.b. Aristotle’s Ethics was an introduction to moral philosophy.c. Aristotle’s Poetics was a treatise on literary theory.d. Aristotle’s Rhetoric dealt with the art of persuading an audience.In what way or ways did Aristotle differ from his teacher Plato?1). For one thing, Aristotle emphasized direct observation of nature and insisted that theory should follow fact. This is different from Plato’s reliance on subjective thinking.2). Also, Aristotle thought that “form” (=idea) and matter together made up concrete individual realities. Here, too, he differed from Plato who held that ideas had a higher reality than the physical world.What is Aristotle’s most influential writing to students of literature?1). To students of literature, Aristotle’s most influential of writing is Poetics.D. Contending Schools of Thoughta. The Sophists 诡辩派1).

The word “cynic” means “dog” in Greek.2). The Cynics got their name because Diogenes（第欧根尼）(about 412—323 B.C.), one of their leaders, decided to live like a dog.3). Diogenes rejected all conventions.4). Diogenes advocated self-sufficiency and extreme simplicity in life.5). Diogenes proclaimed his brotherhood not only with the whole human race, but also with animals.6). On the other hand, Diogenes had no patience with the rich and powerful.7). A story has it that Alexander the Great visited him and asking if he wanted any favor, Diogenes replied: “Only stand out of my light”.c. The Sceptics怀疑派1). The Sceptics followed Pyrrhon（皮朗）, who held that not all knowledge was attainable.d. The Epicureans伊壁鸠鲁派1). The Epicureans were disciples of Epicurus (about 341—270 B.C.), who believed pleasure to the highest good in life, but by pleasure he meant, not sensual enjoyment, but freedom from pain and emotional upheaval, which he thought could be attained by the practice of virtue.e. The Stoics斯多葛派1). To the Stoics, the most important thing in life was not “pleasure”, but “duty”.2). The chief Stoic was Zeno（齐诺）.3). Zeno believed that there is no such thing as chance, and that the cause of nature is rigidly determined by natural laws.4). In the life of an individual man, Zeno believed that virtue is the sole good.II. Roman Culture1. Romans and Greeksa. The burning of Corinth in 146 B.C. marked the Roman conquest of Greece, which was then reduced to a province of Roman Empire.b.

And what was the chief difference between them?a. The Romans had a lot in common with the Greeks.b. Both the Romans and Greeks had traditions rooted in the idea of the citizen-assembly, hostile to monarchy and to servility.c. Their religious are alike enough for most of their deities to be readily identified—Greek Zeus with Roman Jupiter, Greek Aphrodite with roman Venus, and so on—and their myths to be fused.d. Their languages worked in similar ways, and were ultimately related, both being members of the Indo-European language family which stretches from Bangladesh to Iceland.e. There were one big difference. The Romans built up a vast empire; the Greeks didn’t, except for the brief moment of Alexander’s conquests, which soon disintegrated.2. Roman history1). The year 27 B.C. divided the history of Rome into two periods.2). Before 27 B.C. Rome had been a republic.The two important contributions made by the Romans to European cultureI. The Pax RomanaII. Roman Law1) The emperors relied on a strong army—the famous Roman legions—and an efficient bureaucracy to exert their rule, which was facilitated by a well-developed system of roads. Thus the Romans enjoyed a long period of peace lasting two hundred years, a remarkable phenomenon in history known as the Pax Romana.2). Another important contribution made by the Romans to European culture was Roman Law.The decline of the Roman Empire(5个时间)1). The empire began to decline in the 3rd century, increasingly troubled by the inroads of northern tribes such as the Goths.2). In the fourth century the emperor Constantine moved the capital from Rome to Byzantium, and renamed it Constantinople (modern Istanbul).3). After 395, the (Roman) empire was permanently divided into East (the Byzantium Empire) and West.4). In 476 the last emperor of the West was deposed by the Goths and this marked the end of the West Roman Empire.5). The East Roman Empire collapsed when Constantinople fell to the Turks in 1453.4. Architecture, Painting and SculptureA. Architecture1). The Pantheon is the greatest and best preserved Roman temple, which was built in 27 B. C. and reconstructed in the 2nd century A. D. It is a round, domed form and has the world’s first vast interior space.2). Pont du Gard is an exceptionally well-preserved aqueduct that spans a wide valley in southern France.3).

The first five books of the Old Testament are Genesis《创世记》又译《创世纪》,Exodus《出埃及记》,Leviticus《利未记》,Numbers《民数记》 and Deuteronomy《申命记》.(3). Genesis is a religious account of the origin of the Hebrew people, including the origin of the world and man, the career of Isaac and the life of Jacob and his son Joseph.(4). Exodus is a religious history of the Hebrews during theirflight from Egypt, the period when they began to receive God’s Law.(5). Leviticus is a collection of primitive laws.(6).

Deuteronomy is about the final words of Moses（摩西《圣经》故事中犹太人古代领袖） to his people, restating his orders and fifty years’ experiences as a leader.(8). in the beginning, says the Bible, God created the heaven and earth.(9). When the world was formed, God created man and woman—Adam and Eve.A. The Fall of Mana. Adam (亚当） and Eve（夏娃） lived in perfect happiness in the Garden of Eden（伊甸园）. But at the temptation of the serpent one day, Eve picked the fruit from the forbidden tree and shared it with Adam. Immediately afterwards, they were driven from Paradise and went forth into the world.The great flood1). For many hundred years the family of man multiplied and spread over the earth. Because Adam and Eve had disobeyed God and passed on the knowledge of wickedness, man became more and more corrupt. Consequently, God decided to put an end to this by destroying alllife on earth in a great flood.B. Noah’s Ark诺亚方舟a. There was, however, one good man, Noah, who still remembered God and tried to be at peace with his conscience. So God spoke to Noah about His intention and told him to build an ark to protect him and his kins from the waters. Noah followed God’s instruction.IV. The New TestamentWhat writings make up the New Testament?(1). Towards the end of the fourth century four accounts were accepted as part of the New Testament, which tells the beginning of Christianity. The four accounts were believed to have been written by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. They tell of the birth, teaching, death and resurrection of Jesus.(2). Then come: the Acts of Apostles《使徒行传》, a history of the early Christian movement; the Epistles《使徒书》, or letters to the church groups around the Mediterranean; and lastly the Book of Revelation《启示录》, a visionary account of the final triumph of God’s purpose.1. Birth of JesusAccording to St. Matthew《马太福音》, Jesus was a child of the Holy Ghost.2.

A noble began his education as a page (侍从或见习骑士） at the age of seven. He was taught to say his prayers, learned good manners and ran errands for the ladies. At about fourteen, the page became a squire（骑士的年轻扈从）. He was taught the duties of a knight and practiced using a sword, lance and shield. He went into battle with his master. If the squire proved to be a good fighter, he would be made a knight（骑士） at a special ceremony known as dubbing（骑士授予仪式）.b.

欧洲文化入门

欧洲文化入门《欧洲文化入门》是一本为中国大学英语系学生编写的教科书，由外语教学与研究出版社出版。

书中介绍了英语中来自欧洲各个历史时期和人物的典故﹑名言﹑成语﹑人名﹑地名等等，并按时间顺序对欧洲从古至今的历史进行了具体扼要的讲述。

通过本书用英语讲授欧洲各时期的思想﹑科技﹑政治﹑社会方面的重要时间和人物，可以让学习英语的学生提高对欧洲历史文化的了解，从而更加顺利的学习英语，更好的掌握英语语言文化。

欧洲历史文化的特征：西方文化的基本特征的形成，主要是开放的海洋性地理环境，奴隶主民主政治，以及奴隶制商品经济的充分发展。

人类的古代社会大多以农业为主, 古希腊、罗马社会, 商品生产较发达, 这在整个古代世界史上是绝无仅有的。

这与其特定的海洋地理环境有关。

商品经济的发达, 造就出了一个强有力的工商业阶层, 他们推翻了氏族贵族的统治, 建立了民主政治。

这一传统的建立, 使历史的发展一开始就有着较强的运转机制, 使国家机体充满活力。

商品经济发达, 使生产力得到迅速发展。

这样，征服自然、改造自然的信念易于形成。

社会生活的内容也就丰富多彩，这又促使人们开阔视野, 向外探求, 把发现世界和改造世界作为人生的最高价值和获取自由的主要途径。

生产力的发展也要求与之相适应的科学文化等上层建筑的繁荣,于是, 西方人渴求知识,把知识作为人类文化的最高价值范畴, 从而不固步自封。

他们有“爱知”的传统, 对知识从来是孜孜以求。

商品经济的发展和开放的海洋性地理环境, 使西方人产生了外向好动、冒险的性格。

他们有独立不羁的人格, 开拓精神和变异观念。

古希腊哲人赫拉克里特的“人不能两次踏进同一条河流”的哲理, 说明了这一点。

这种变动和开拓观念, 使他们思想活跃, 锐意进取, 创立了不少学术思想和文化艺术的领域, 如理性主义、自然主义、经验主义、存在主义等等。

古希腊罗马的奴隶制民主政治,使西方文化产生了民主传统和科学精神。

他们提倡人权, 讲平等。

欧洲文化入门

欧洲文化入门
欧洲认同价值观的形成在很大程度上是欧洲人对其同源文化的延伸。

作为欧洲文明的渊源，古希腊罗马文化奠定了欧洲的文化传统。

在中世纪基督教大一统的文化氛围中，基督教教义成为欧洲人长期共同秉承的精神家园。

古希腊罗马文化和基督教的影响早已深入到了欧洲人的血液中，成为欧洲认同的重要文化根源。

关键词:欧洲认同;文化根源;古希腊罗马文化;基督教
欧洲，不仅是一个地理概念，更是一种文化凝聚的象征，在此基础上形成的欧洲认同是欧洲人对自身特性的定位，更是对欧洲超越经济范畴的强大文化凝聚力的肯定。

“欧洲在伦理领域存在着某种文化的共同性。

”[1] (P251) 要正确认识欧洲认同的深刻内涵就必须探究其历史发展中的文化共同性。

从整个欧洲的历史演变及其文化传统来看，欧洲认同的实质即是对希腊罗马文化和基督教文化的认同。

一、欧洲文明的起源—古希腊罗马文化在古希腊时代，现在“欧洲”所指的这片土地被称作“欧罗巴”，来源于希腊神话。

随着地中海地区以及现在的中欧、西欧广大地区被罗马帝国所征服，希腊罗马文明也随之而来。

人类文明的中心开始由地中海区域向西转移，希腊的文化成就和罗马的帝国统治长远而深入地影响着“欧罗巴”地区，为其同源性文化与社会意识的形成奠定了坚实的基础。

诚然，对古希腊罗马文明的高度认同成为了欧洲认同形成的根本因素。

恩格斯曾指
出:“没有希腊文化和罗马帝国所奠定的基础，就没有现代的欧洲。

”。

欧洲文化入门

相关总结
欧洲文化导论是中国大学英语系根据其教学需要编写的一本教科书。

在阅读英语书籍和杂志以及与来自英语国家的人们进行交流的过程中，中国大学生常常感到缺乏对欧洲文化的了解将增加许多困难。

从古希腊和罗马哲学，文学，历史著作，希伯来圣经，文艺复兴时期的艺术创作开始，或者与不同时期的思想，技术，政治和社会有关。

如果您对这些事情不太了解，则可能无法通过阅读来理解它们，并且无法进行顺畅的对话。

对这些知识有了更好的理解后，您不仅可以更好地理解它们，而且可以通过文化更好地学习语言。

课程目的
它是为学习英语的学生而设计的。

因此，地名，人物，书籍，事件等的名称是根据英语约定拼写的，例如Aristotle而不是Aristotle或Aristotle。

相关总结
《欧洲文化概论》是针对中国大学英语系的一本教科书，是根据教学需要编写的。

在阅读英语书籍和杂志以及与来自英语国家的人们进行交流的过程中，中国大学生常常感到缺乏欧洲文化知识会增加许多困难。

从古希腊和罗马时期的哲学，文学，历史著作，希伯来圣经，文艺复兴时期的艺术创作，或涉及意识形态，技术，不同时期的政治和社会方面。

如果您对这些事情不太了解，则可能无法通过阅读来全部理解它们，并且无法进行顺畅的对话。

一旦您对这些知识有了更多的了解，您不仅会更好地理解它们，而且还将通过文化来更好地学习语言。

课程目的
它是为学习英语的学生而设计的。

欧洲文化入门_中文版

欧洲文化入门中文版我们要牢记文化的五分法：一、社会历史(包括政治、经济、宗教、历史)二、哲学三、文学四、科学五、艺术 (包括绘画、雕塑、建筑和音乐)，以记忆每个时代的各要点为主，理解纵向的变迁为辅，后者主要的作用时帮助我们更好的记住前者。

要研究欧洲发展的历史，我们要仅仅抓住两条线索。

一条是社会文化发展线索，那就是希腊和罗马文化历史。

另一条则是精神宗教形成线索，即犹太教和基督教历史。

正如，想精通中国文化必先熟知孔夫子和道家文化一样。

下面我们将分章节进行综述。

在每章综述的最后，会有一两道重要的问答题分析。

每章还会附有一些练习题，希望大家好好做一做。

第一章希腊罗马文化希腊罗马文化可以说是欧洲文明的起源，所以这一章节应该是比较重要的章节。

我们先看希腊的发展。

希腊文明分为几个时期，她形成于公元前800－500年，经历了古典时代（也就是公元前500到公元前336年）和希腊化时代（也就是公元前336年到公元前31年）。

希腊文明达到顶峰是公元前5世纪。

公元前146年，希腊被罗马攻克。

希腊文明也就被罗马文明所取代。

这段历史的重要大事有：1、公元前12世纪，随着特洛伊人的入侵，希腊堕入“黑暗时代”。

荷马史诗描述的正是希腊人与特洛伊人之间的战争（《以利亚特》和《奥得赛》）。

这里要注意的是，荷马史诗描述的时代并非荷马生活的时代。

荷马生活在公元前700年。

2、公元前6世纪，希腊世界开始有了全面改变，为后来的古典时代打开了通途。

其中两个重要的城邦国家是雅典和斯巴达。

雅典发展起一个完全不同类型的社会，公元前594年，梭伦成为雅典的首席执行官，他的贡献在于，在组织上为以后建立著名的雅典民主奠定了基础。

雅典之所以在当时拥有卓越的地位，是因为它在打败庞大的波斯帝国这场重大战争中起了最主要的作用。

历史之父希罗多德在他的历史书中进行了详尽的描述。

3、由于雅典的不断扩张引起了斯巴达的恐慌，因而在公元前431年爆发了伯罗奔尼撒战争。

战争最终以雅典的失败而告终。
