It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way—
to this place—then fair to look upon, with not a trace of this day’s disfigurement. 那时这里已是一片美景，全没了今天的扭曲和丑恶。

Robert Frost ( 1874—1963) 1874 1963)
Member of a New England family, Frost was born in San Francisco and taken at the age of ten to the New England farm country with which his poetry is identified. A short period at Harvard was followed by further work, making shoes, editing a country newspaper, teaching school, and finally farming. This background of craftsmanship and husbandry had its effect upon his poetry in more than the choice of subjects, for he demanded that his verse be as simple and honest as an axe or hoe. After a long period of farming, he moved to England (1912—1915), where he published his first book of poems, A Boy’s Will (1913).

2. An Outline of 20th Century American Literature
“The Lost Generation” writers were devoid of faith and alienated from a civilization. After the WWI, a group of new American dramatists emerged. During 1920s and 1930s, appeared “Harlem Renaissance”, a burst of literary achievement by Negro artists. After WWⅡ, a new generation of American authors wrote in the skeptical, ironic tone. In the 1960s and 70s, they turned increasingly to experimental techniques.

The Byronic Hero
Goethe’s Faust Part one is published in 1808. In Geneva, Byron meets M.G. Lewis author of The Monk who translates Faust. Part Two of Goethe’s Faust is published posthumously in 1832. The figure of Goethe’s Euphorion is based on Byron. Goethe: “Byron is not antique and is not romantic, but he is the present day itself. Such a one I had to have. Moreover, he was just my man on account of his unsatisfied nature and of his warlike bent, which led him to his doom at Missolonghi.”
