Foregrounding
Contrast
可译为对照。用比较不同或相反性质的办法来加以区分 (distinguish or be distinguished by comparison of unlike or opposite qualities)
对照是将两种事物(或情形)放在一起就某一性质进行 比较,以显现其反差。
a peculiar writing skill; outline an image of pathological eccentricity(病 态怪癖), very thought-provoking.
Foregrounding
可译为前景突出或突出,一种修辞手法。突出本身是一个暗 喻,将文学语言比成了绘画或摄影。 在绘画或摄影中,人物往往摆在比较突出的地位,而花鸟山 水等自然景观被用作图画背景。这样,不但画面和谐,而且主 从有致。置于突出地位的部分引人注目,背景部分则起着烘云 托月的作用。 语言也是这样。一般来说,语言以其常规的方式为说话者所 使用,为听话者所接受。但语言的使用往往超出常规(norm), 或故意偏离(deviation),或刻意求工(regularity)。但不 论用哪种形式,都会起到引人注目的作用。这种超出常规的语 言称为被突出的语言(foregrounded language),而人们惯常 使用的常规语言则被看成背景语言(backgrounded language)。

Mencken’s Writing Style
• No other entertainment gave him greater pleasure than reporting from the conventions; nor did anyone appreciate his efforts more than Mencken himself. One reporter, peering through Mencken's window late at night after one rally, recalled watching him at work alone in his hotel room, pounding out copy on a typewriter propped on a desk. He would type a few sentences, read them, slap his thigh, toss his head back, and roar with laughter. Then he would type some more lines, guffaw, and so on until the end of the article.

《海洋之歌》算不上我最中意的电影,但它在某些瞬间打动了我,这种忽隐忽现的感动促使我写这篇影评,这些瞬间是关于真实人生的艰苦和难熬的,主要体现在了两个配角身上,也是这部电影“反派”:女巫玛查与她的儿子麦克·利尔。
写光明童话的影评总是这样艰难,我无法确信光明真的存在,在人生大部分的时空里,我们主要做的就是对抗黑暗:世界给予的黑暗、考验与内心的脆弱和失衡。
黑暗是我们真实的处境,是我们真正所处的时空。
《海洋之歌》是一部表面看起来光明简单的童话,关于一群濒危灭绝的精灵,关于它们逐渐被控制和被城市化吞噬的生活;但在光芒与诗意的表面,我依然捕捉到这部电影那一丝黑暗与凉意、人的垂死挣扎和对命运的无力反抗,玛查与她儿子的绝望——就是这一丝微妙的黑暗对整部电影进行了非凡的折射与对比,使这部动画电影变得并非表面那么简单,它反射出了这个故事本身所具备的多角度的生活哲思和光怪陆离的人生作为。
它不仅仅讲述一个靠一首歌和一件外套就能战胜世界的童话,也不仅仅局限于孩童天马行空的白日梦,它指向了我们生活中那些不可避免的痛苦与挫折,我们该如何与这些重要情绪与经历相处,相处方法本身成为了一种哲学和智慧,也成为一种缺少选择的选择。
巨人麦克利尔失去了他非常重要的一个人,他悲痛万分,日夜哭泣,泪水汇成了黑色的海洋。
爱人的失去犹如被推倒的多米诺骨牌,它引发了一个家族的沦陷与枯萎。
他的母亲女巫玛查(有没有人发现玛查各方面都跟宫崎骏《千与千寻》里的汤婆婆很像?导演自称也是宫老的粉丝)心如刀绞,却无法拯救他于这悲痛,她于是用魔法吸取了他的悲伤和哭泣,把他变成了一尊巨大暗沉的石像。
石像是没有情感的,因此就没有了悲伤,这样麦克就不会再伤害自己了,他可以日夜麻木地这样站着海水里,不再哭泣也不再发声,风吹日晒,直到生命被悄然耗尽。
女巫玛查法力无边,但她也无法替代儿子的命运,惟有攫取他的感情来阻止他悲痛。
这是一种对生活过分和过度的控制和操纵,没有人能彻底控制得了生活和命运,玛查却在努力做到这一点,过度的控制令人麻木僵死、成为石头,这本身就是对控制的无声反抗与讽刺。

TheLibidofortheUgly解读
爱丑之欲HL门肯几年前的一个冬日,我乘坐宾夕法尼亚铁路公司的一班快车离开匹兹堡,向东行驶一小时,穿越了威斯特摩兰县的煤城和钢都。
这是我熟悉的地方,无论是童年时期还是成年时期,我常常经过这一带。
但以前我从来没有感到这地方荒凉得这么可怕。
这儿正是工业化美国的心脏,是其最赚钱、最典型活动的中心,世界上最富裕、最伟大的国家的自豪和骄傲——然而这儿的景象却又丑陋得这样可怕,凄凉悲惨得这么令人无法忍受,以致人的抱负和壮志在这儿成了令人毛骨悚然的、令人沮丧的笑料。
这儿的财富多得无法计算,简直都无法想象——也是在这儿,人们的居住条件又是如此之糟,连那些流浪街头的野猫也为之害羞。
我说的不仅仅是脏。
钢铁城镇的脏是人们意料之中的事。
我指的是所看到的房子没有一幢不是丑陋得令人难受,畸形古怪得让人作呕的。
从东自由镇到格林斯堡,在这全长25英里的路上,从火车上看去,没有一幢房子不让人看了感到眼睛不舒服和难受。
有的房子糟得吓人,而这些房子竞还是一些最重要的建筑——教堂、商店、仓库等等。
人们惊愕地看着这些房子,就像是看见一个脸给子弹崩掉的人一样。
有的留在记忆里,甚至回忆起来也是可怕的:珍尼特西面的一所样子稀奇古怪的小教堂,就像一扇老虎窗贴在一面光秃秃的、似有麻风散鳞的山坡上;参加过国外战争的退伍军人总部,设在珍尼特过去不远的另一个凄凉的小镇上。
沿铁路线向东不远处的一座钢架,就像一个巨大的捕鼠器。
但我回忆里出现的三要还是一个总的印象——连绵不断的丑陋。
从匹兹堡到格林斯堡火车调车场,放眼望去,没有一幢像样的房子。
没有一幢不是歪歪扭扭的,没有一幢不是破破烂烂的。
尽管到处是林立的工厂,遍地弥漫着烟尘,这一地区的自然霉仟并不差。
就地形而论,这儿是一条狭窄的河谷,其中流淌着一道道发源自山间的深溪。
这儿的人口虽然稠密,但并无过分拥挤的迹象,即使在一些较大的城镇中,建筑方面也还大有发展的余地。
这儿很少见到有高密度排列的建筑楼群,几乎每一幢房屋,无论大小,其四周都还有剩余的空地。
The Libido for the Ugly 爱丑之欲
The Libido for the UglyH. L. Mencken1 On a Winter day some years ago, coming out of Pittsburgh on one of the expresses ofthe Pennsylvania Railroad, I rolled eastward for an hour through the coal and steel towns of Westmoreland county. It was familiar ground; boy and man, I had been through it often before. But somehow I had never quite sensed its appalling desolation. Here was the very heart of industrial America, the center of its most lucrative and characteristic activity, the boast and pride of the richest and grandest nation ever seen on earth--and here was a scene so dreadfully hideous , so intolerably bleak and forlorn that it reduced the whole aspiration of man to a macabre and depressing joke . Here was wealth beyond computation, almost beyond imagination--and here were human habitations so abominable that they would have disgraced a race of alley cats.2 I am not speaking of mere filth. One expects steel towns to be dirty. What I allude to is the unbroken and agonizing ugliness, the sheer revolting monstrousness, of every house in sight. From East Liberty to Greensburg, a distance of twenty-five miles, there was not one in sight from the train that did not insult and lacerate the eye. Some were so bad, and they were among the most pretentious --churches, stores, warehouses, and the like--that they were down-right startling; one blinked before them as one blinks before a man with his face shot away. A few linger in memory, horrible even there: a crazy little church just west of Jeannette, set like a dormer-window on the side of a bare leprous hill; the headquarters of the Veterans of Foreign Wars atanother forlorn town, a steel stadium like a huge rattrap somewhere further down the line. But most of all I recall the general effect--of hideousness without a break. There was not a single decent house within eye range from the Pittsburgh to the Greensburg yards. There was not one that was not misshapen, and there was not one that was not shabby.3 The country itself is not uncomely, despite the grime of the endless mills. It is, in form, a narrow river valley, with deep gullies running up into the hills. It is thickly settled, but not: noticeably overcrowded. There is still plenty of room for building, even in the larger towns, and there are very few solid blocks. Nearly every house, big and little, has space on all four sides. Obviously, if there were architects of any professional sense or dignity in the region, they would have perfected a chalet to hug the hillsides--a chalet with a high-pitched roof, to throw off the heavy Winter snows, but still essentially a low and clinging building, wider than it was tall. But what have they done? They have taken as their model a brick set on end. This they have converted into a thing of dingy clapboards with a narrow, low-pitched roof. And the whole they have set upon thin, preposterous brick piers . By the hundreds and thousands these abominable houses cover the bare hillsides, like gravestones in some gigantic and decaying cemetery. On their deep sides they are three, four and even five stories high; on their low sides they bury themselves swinishly in the mud. Not a fifth of them are perpendicular . They lean this way and that, hanging on to their bases precariously . And one and all they are streaked in grime, with dead and eczematous patches of paint peeping through the streaks.4 Now and then there is a house of brick. But what brick! When it is new it is the color of a fried egg. When it has taken on the patina of the mills it is the color of an egg long past all hope or caring. Was it necessary to adopt that shocking color? No more than it was necessary to set all of the houses on end. Red brick, even in a steel town, ages with some dignity. Let it become downright black, and it is still sightly , especially if its trimmings are of white stone, with soot inthe depths and the high spots washed by the rain. But in Westmoreland they preferthat uremic yellow, and so they have the most loathsome towns and villages ever seen by mortal eye.5 I award this championship only after laborious research and incessant prayer. I have seen, I believe, all of the most unlovely towns of the world; they are all to be found in the United States. I have seen the mill towns of decomposing New England and the desert towns of Utah, Arizona and Texas. I am familiar with the back streets of Newark, Brooklyn and Chicago, and have made scientific explorations to Camden, N. J. and Newport News, Va. Safe in a Pullman , I have whirled through the g1oomy, Godforsaken villages of Iowa and Kansas, andthe malarious tidewater hamlets of Georgia. I have been to Bridgeport, Conn., and to Los Angeles. But nowhere on this earth, at home or abroad, have I seen anything to compare to the villages that huddle aloha the line of the Pennsylvania from the Pittsburgh yards to Greensburg. They are incomparable in color, and they are incomparable in design. It is as if some titanic and aberrant genius , uncompromisingly inimical to man, had devoted all the ingenuity of Hell to the makingof them. They show grotesqueries of ugliness that, in retrospect ,become almost diabolical.One cannot imagine mere human beings concocting such dreadful things, and one can scarcely imagine human beings bearing life in them.6 Are they so frightful because the valley is full of foreigners--dull, insensate brutes, with no love of beauty in them? Then why didn't these foreigners set up similar abominations in the countries that they came from? You will, in fact, find nothing of the sort in Europe--save perhaps in the more putrid parts of England. There is scarcely an ugly village on the whole Continent. The peasants, however poor, somehow manage to make themselves graceful and charming habitations, even in Spain. But in the American village and small town the pull is always toward ugliness, and in that Westmoreland valley it has been yielded to with an eagerness bordering upon passion. It is incredible that mere ignorance should have achieved such masterpieces of horror.7 On certain levels of the American race, indeed, there seems to be a positive libido for the ugly, as on other and less Christian levels there is a libido for the beautiful. It is impossible to put down the wallpaper that defaces the average American home of the lower middle class tomere inadvertence , or to the obscene humor of the manufacturers. Such ghastly designs, it must be obvious, give a genuine delight to a certain type of mind. They meet, in some unfathomable way, its obscure and unintelligible demands. The taste for them is as enigmatical and yet as common as the taste for dogmatic theology and the poetry of Edgar A Guest.8 Thus I suspect (though confessedly without knowing) that the vast majority of the honest folk of Westmoreland county, and especially the 100% Americans among them, actually admire the houses they live in, and are proud of them. For the same money they could get vastly better ones, but they prefer what they have got. Certainly there was no pressure upon the Veterans of Foreign Wars to choose the dreadful edifice that bears their banner, for there are plenty of vacant buildings along the trackside, and some of them are appreciably better. They might, in- deed, have built a better one of their own. But they chose that clapboarded horror with their eyes open, and having chosen it, they let it mellow into its present shocking depravity. They like it as it is: beside it, the Parthenon would no doubt offend them. In precisely the same way the authors of therat-trap stadium that I have mentioned made a deliberate choice: After painfully designing and erecting it, they made it perfect in their own sight by putting a completelyimpossible penthouse painted a staring yellow, on top of it. The effect is that of a fat woman witha black eye. It is that of a Presbyterian grinning. But they like it.9 Here is something that the psychologists have so far neglected: the love of ugliness for its own sake, the lust to make the world intolerable. Its habitat is the United States. Out of the melting pot emerges a race which hates beauty as it hates truth. The etiology of this madness deserves a great deal more study than it has got. There must be causes behind it; it arises and flourishes in obedience to biological laws, and not as a mere act of God. What, precisely, are the terms of those laws? And why do they run stronger in America than elsewhere? Let some honest Privat Dozent in pathological sociology apply himself to the problem.(from Reading for Rhetoric by Caroline Shrodes,Clifford A, Josephson, James R. Wilson )NOTES1. the Veterans of Foreign Wars: generally abbreviated to VFW, an organization created by the merger in 1914 of three societies of United States overseas veterans that were founded after the Spanish-American War of 1899. With its membership vastly increased after World War Ⅰand World WarⅡ, the organization became a major national veterans' society.2. Guest: Edgar Albert Guest (1881--1959), English-born newspaper poet, whose daily poem in the Detroit Free Press was widely syndicated and extremely popular with the people he called'folks' for its homely, saccharine morality3. Parthenon: a beautiful doric temple built in honor of the virgin (Parthenos) goddess Athena on the Acropolis in Athens around 5th century B. C.4. Presbysterian: a form of church government by presbyters developed by John Calvin and other reformers during the 16th-century Protestant Reformation and used with variations by Reformed and Presbyterian churches throughout the world. According to Calvin's theory of church government, the church is a community or body in which Christ only is head and members are equal under him. All who hold office do so by election of the people whose representatives they are.Mencken assumes that Presbyterians are puritanical, sombrefaced people who never smile or laugh. Hence people are shocked by the unexpected and incongruous sight of a Presbyterian grinning.。

丑小鸭英语绘本读后感English:After reading the story of "The Ugly Duckling," I was deeply moved by the powerful message of self-acceptance and the importance of not judging others based on their appearances. The story beautifully depicts the journey of the ugly duckling who faces rejection and loneliness but ultimately transforms into a beautiful swan. It reminds us that growth and transformation take time, and true beauty comes from within. Through the protagonist's struggles, the story also teaches us the value of compassion and empathy towards those who may be different from ourselves.

“the libido for the ugly” is not the foible of average persons, but the eccentricity of the sick, the dead and the decaying body.
The Libido for the Ugly
——Foregrounding, Contrast, Imagery
apply impression technique(印象手法) use many derogatory words & derogatory imagery. a blend of foregrounding, contrast and imagery
They two combines, “the libido for the ugly”, violating linguistic norms. The contrast is so intense that catches the readers' attention.
Foregrounding
Imagery
可译为意象,是一种使用语言的艺术手法。
赋义予诗歌或其他文学作品中提及的感官感受到的 一切物体和性质,其提及方式可以是文字描述、暗示 或比照物(如用于明喻和暗喻中的喻体)
the title "The Libido for the Ugly" is very arresting. People may ask:
the image of a dead man(病人意象)
the image of a decaying body(病人意象)
leprous (para.2)
cemetery (para.3)
decaying (para.3)
eczematous (para.3)

➢Why to use "the libido", but not "the love"? ➢Why to use "the the ugly", but not "for the beautiful"?
ቤተ መጻሕፍቲ ባይዱ
By using "the libido" that usually used in psychoanalysis is a deviation. "for the ugly" is used out of the same purpose.
On this ground, "the libido for the ugly" is not the foible of labourers, but the eccentricity of industrialists and industrial America. It is a pathological eccentricity.
derogatory(贬义) commendatory(褒义)
appalling dreadfully desolation disgrace hideous intolerably alley cat reduce bleak
forlorn macabre depressing
abominable
Westmoreland
Westmorelanders
industrial heart lucrative center rich boast grand pride aspiration
industrial America American industrialists
Contrast
the image of a sick person(病人意象)
Contrast
可译为对照。用比较不同或相反性质的办法来加以区分 (distinguish or be distinguished by comparison of unlike or opposite qualities)
对照是将两种事物(或情形)放在一起就某一性质进行 比较,以显现其反差。
a peculiar writing skill; outline an image of pathological eccentricity(病 态怪癖), very thought-provoking.
Foregrounding
可译为前景突出或突出,一种修辞手法。突出本身是一个暗 喻,将文学语言比成了绘画或摄影。 在绘画或摄影中,人物往往摆在比较突出的地位,而花鸟山 水等自然景观被用作图画背景。这样,不但画面和谐,而且主 从有致。置于突出地位的部分引人注目,背景部分则起着烘云 托月的作用。 语言也是这样。一般来说,语言以其常规的方式为说话者所 使用,为听话者所接受。但语言的使用往往超出常规(norm), 或故意偏离(deviation),或刻意求工(regularity)。但不 论用哪种形式,都会起到引人注目的作用。这种超出常规的语 言称为被突出的语言(foregrounded language),而人们惯常 使用的常规语言则被看成背景语言(backgrounded language)。
Imagery
In conclusion, the existence of the eccentricity has its deep social roots.
Through the intense contrast between "industrial America" and "Westmoreland", "American Industrialists" and "Westmorelanders", we can see that the prosperous industrial America is based on depriving the surplus value of the labourers.
