名人家书:约翰济慈致弟弟（汤姆）
I have not sufficient reasoning faculty to settlethe doctrine of thrift——as it is consistent with the dignity of human Society——with the happiness of Cottagers ——all I can do is by plump contrasts——Were the fingers made to squeeze a guinea or a white hand？Were the Lips made to hold a pen or a Kiss？And yet in Cities Man is shutout from his fellows if he is poor，the cottagermust be dirty and very wretched if she be notthrifty.——The present state of society demandsthis and this convinces me that the world is veryyoung and in a very ignorant state.——We live ina barbarous age…On our walk in Ireland we hadtoo much opportunity to see the worse than nakedness，the rags，the dirt and misery of thepoor common Irish—A Scotch Cottage，though inthat sometimes the Smoke has no exit but at thedoor，is a palace to an Irish one…We heard onpassing into Belfast through a most wretchedsuburb that most disgusting of all noises…I meanthe sound of the
shuttle.What a tremendous difficulty is the improvement of the conditions ofsuch people.I cannot conceive how a mind “withchild” of philanthropy could grasp at possibility——with me it is absolute despair.
我没有足够的推理能力去阐述清楚节俭学说——由于它与人类社会的高尚品德是一致的——与村民的幸福是一致的——所以我所能做的一切便是借助直接的对比——手指是用来拿钱的还是握白人手的？嘴唇是用来含铅笔的还是接吻的？然而在城里，一个人如果很穷就会被拒之于他的伙伴之外；一个村民如果不节俭定会变得龌龊和非常不幸。——社会目前的状况要求人们节俭，而这使我相信我们这个世界还很年轻，还处于一种无知的状态。——我们仍生活在一个野蛮的时代。……当我们在爱尔兰随处走走时，有太多的机会看到比贫穷的普通爱尔兰人的赤身裸体、衣衫褴褛、肮脏和不幸更为糟糕的景象。一间苏格兰人的农舍，尽管有时烟雾没有出口，只有从门里冒出来，对爱尔兰人来说，却是一个宫殿。……在穿过一个肮脏破旧的城郊进入贝尔法斯特时，我们听到了一种令人再讨厌不过的嘈杂声音。……我说的是织布梭子的声音。要想改善这些人的生活状况是何等困难。我难以想象一个“孕育着”博爱之心的人何以能抓住这种可能性——对于我来说，那简直使我感到绝望。
摘要“美即是真，真即是美”。约翰?济慈在《希腊古瓮颂》中如是说。“真”与“美”从此便成了批评家争论不休的话题。正因诗人作品的开放性与多元性，众人的解读也莫衷一是。本文将通过细读的手法研究该诗，并对诗中诗人提出的一些论点，包括“真”与“美”的涵义等进行评述。力图通过自己的批评性分析，带领读者走进济慈的“真”、“美”世界。 关键词济慈美真批评性分析 一、“此地长眠者，声名水上书。” ——济慈 批评家的无情抨击几乎使其名 誉扫地，但他并没屈服，诗人托友人在其墓志铭上刻上，“一位 年轻的英国诗人”，以一颗“痛楚的内心”，“在仇敌恶毒的势 力”面前，“声名书写与水上”。 （Eliot，270）。相反，詹姆士?奥鲁克认为诗歌结 尾的声明“表现出一种肯定的自我意识” 。有的批评家便武断地 得出结论，认为济慈是试图在视觉艺术与诗歌做出比较，并认 为视觉艺术更胜一筹。的确绘画等视觉艺术形式往往激起观 者丰富的想象，而且个中内涵未通过明确文字直接给出，因此 理解是开放式的，多元的。然而，诗歌也是如此。 综观人类历史，诗歌一直都是人们的精神食粮，发人深 思，诱人想象，给予心灵的观照。笔者认为，济慈只是单纯称 赞古瓮之美，并非要做高下比较。笔者有两个依据。一方面， 这句本身自相矛盾，是个悖论。古瓮虽“铺叙”了一个比“诗还 瑰丽”的“如花故事”，但自身形态之美却恰恰通过“诗”来表 现、传达出来。若非此诗读者无法欣赏到古瓮的艺术之美。 因此，这个悖论无解。当然，或许诗人本就无意求解，他认为 视觉艺术和诗歌只要能唤起美感，便同样美好。巧的是诗人 苏轼也有类似的诗画理论。他认为诗歌和绘画紧密相连。他 曾称赞王维，“味摩诘之诗，诗中有画。观摩诘之画，画中有 诗。”两位诗人在诗、画这两种艺术形式中看到和谐与统一，而 非对立和矛盾。二者在诗中互相作用，互相渗透，将古瓮之 “美”升华到极致。 另一个依据是通感的使用，在“一个如花的故事，比诗还 瑰丽（原诗用词为‘sweet’亦有人译为甜美）”这行寥寥八字的 诗句中， 便运用了

When Bill Gates made his decision to drop out from Harvard, he did not care too much of the result. Gates entered Harvard in 1973, and dropped out two years later when he and Allen started the engine of Microsoft.

Kobe Bryant(hardworking) Kobe Bryant can be a good case of how diligence works in our life. When asked by one of his friends that what is the secret of his success, he replied with humor and implication that，"Do you know how Los Angelos looks like at 4 o'clock AM ? I know."Obviously, how could he, one of the greatest basketball players throughout the history of mankind who was once deemed not appropriate for playing basketball, have achieved unprecedented success in NBA without diligence ? 科比.布莱恩特是一个证明勤奋是如何起作用的很好的例子。当被他的一个好朋友问到他成功的秘诀的时候，他幽默而又意义深远地回答到："你知道洛杉矶凌晨四点的样子吗?我知道。"很明显，这位曾经被认为不太适合打篮球的、人类历史上最伟大的篮球运动员之一的科比，如果没有勤奋的话，怎么可能在美职篮获得史无前例的成功呢? Steve Jobs(key words:innovation/dream/insist/science and technology/success) For another, many of today's business success or miracle can be ascribed to innovation. Take Steve Jobs （Lei Jun）as a case in point, as a member of the mighty ocean of electronic products, if he had not invented innovative devices such as Ipad and Iphone(millet mobile phone)，he could not have achieved great success in the global(indian) market and even changed the way human communicate, recreate and live. 另外，很多当今世界的商业成功和奇迹都可以归因于创新，以史蒂夫.乔布斯为例，作为浩瀚的电子产品海洋中的一员，如果他没有发明诸如Ipad，Iphone这样创新的设备，他是不太可能在全球市场取得成功甚至改变人们的通讯、娱乐和生活方式的。 Just imagine why Apple's products could be widely and deeply supported by consumers among other similar products, it is not their appearance and price, but their distinctive function，that couts. 试想一下，为何苹果公司的产品能够在诸多的同类产品中深受消费者的喜欢，不在于他们的外形和价 格，而在于他们与众不同的功能。 stay hungry stay foolish

Analysis of Ode to a Nightingale by John Keats 在诗歌的第一节里，诗人主要描写夜莺的歌声给诗人带到了飘飘欲仙的忘我境界，在艰难的现实生活里，诗人感到无情命运对其压迫产生的痛楚：My heart aches，and a drowsy numbness pain My sense，as though of hemlock I had drunk 诗人的心里痛苦，困顿麻木，就象吃了鸦片一样，但是痛苦带来的麻木又使诗人感到一丝慰藉：Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains One minute past，and Lethe-wards had sunk；列撕忘川是哈帝斯冥城里的一条让人忘记过去的河流。作者通过引用这条河流来忘记现实生活的磨难，压迫，在这里诗人大量运用了“^”音来加强痛苦的效果“drunk some,dull,one,sunk”：并且“S”音的重复使用使诗歌具有一种破碎的撕心裂肺的效果，aches，drowsy,numbness,pains,sense,as,drains，
两组音的交替出现使人们在朗读过程中深深体会到诗人内心的痛苦，接着，诗歌进入了一个较为欢快的段落，这是因为夜莺的歌声使人感到快意，作者把夜莺比喻成树林里的精灵(Dryad of the tree)，为夏日引吭高歌，并且这种欢快的声音在某种程度上引起诗人的嫉妒：This not through envy of the happy lot, But being too happy in thine happiness 在第一节诗里'作者先用现实生活带来的痛苦感受来引出夜莺快乐的情感，这种矛盾修饰辞法(paradox)大大加强了诗歌的戏剧效果，让人更感受到夜莺歌声的魅力，从而自然引出了夜莺歌声而产生的快乐意境。 在第二节里，诗人通过运用了通感修辞手法(synesthesia[.sin?s'θi:?i?])把夜莺的歌声比作温酿可口的清醇的葡萄酒,葡萄酒产生于法国南部的普鲁旺斯省(Provencal)这一带地区气候温暖湿润，阳光明媚，是一处宜人可爱的地方一樽珍藏在地窖多年的美酒就更加清醇可口

第一小节，较沉闷的元音(如在“heart”、“drowsy”、“numbness”、等词中)与较严厉的词(如“aches”、“pains”、) 形成一种强烈的对比。写诗人被美妙的歌声刺醒了被痛苦麻木的灵魂，一种隐隐的甜蜜的痛苦敲醒了诗人困顿的心神。/s/ /W / /z//T/ 等滑音的运用，给人一种舒缓的感觉，它像钝头痛一样，如丝般，一缕一缕，细细的侵入你的身躯，你的灵魂。沉闷的元音/Q /也缕缕出现（“drunk ”“some”“dull”等词中），与"beechen green","full throated ease"也形成一种对比，表现了诗人快感与痛苦的糅合，表现了诗人对那个明快亮丽世界的向往，与急于摆脱现实羁绊的强烈愿望。 第二小节，诗人用一系列爆破音/d/、/t/、/b/、/p/、/k/等与短元音/i//Q//A//R/等，构成一幅声音响亮、欢快的美好世界，那里有陈年佳酿，似灵泉之水，有生机勃勃的绿色，有舞步欢快，有笑声盈盈，有声声歌唱……诗人领我们走进了一个美妙的世界，实践着他所说的“那些值得尊敬的诗人是那些讲述悦耳动听故事的人”。 第三小节，/v/、/r/、/n/等辅音（如在“fever”“fret”“groan”中）的运用，使嗡嗡之声充溢其间，给人一种烦躁、压抑之感，一些沉闷的元音给人一种沉闷、无生气、瘫软的感觉。 第四小节，/s//f/等擦音及长元音/ei/、/i:/的运用，产生一站种柔和、安宁的效果。“fly”、“wings”、“tender”、“breezes”、“venderous”、“light”等词，一动一静、一明一暗，形成对比，使富有动感，柔风软拂，月光柔和，树林静谧，曲径通幽，给人一种宁静之感。 第五小节，“flowers”、“soft incense”“embalmed darkness”、“pastoral eglantine”等词产生一种柔美的艺术效果。头韵/m/的运用，告诉人民们在五月里，天气渐热，夹杂着苍蝇的嗡嗡声，让人们有一种昏昏欲睡之感。另外，元音从/Q/到/R/到/a:/到/ai/，不断变化，使人完全没有单调像琴键上跳跃的音符，避免了单调。 第六小节，长元音/i:/的连续运用，（如在“easeful death”“mused rhyme”“cease”“requiem”等中）带人进入一种幽静、甜熟、“奢侈”的死的意境之中。之是诗人的梦呓，是听着歌声沉醉的话语。 第七小节，/d/ /t/ /n/ /g/等辅音（如在“tread”“down”“night”“off-times”“magic”中）以及长音/ei//R://E://EU/等（如在“born”“immortal”“heard”“home”“casement”中）的运用，长短相间，意象跳跃较快，使整节诗充满了跳动的音符。 第八小节，一连贯/s/的运用（如在“sole self”“so”“elf”“fades”“past”“still stream”“vallage-glades”“sleep”等中）将读者留在那个已经离去的世界里，美妙的音乐久久盘旋在人们的心间。 诗人运用了典故：君王与平民的故事、圣经中的“路德记”和中世纪的神话故事，借以说明夜莺虽然将刺刺进自己的胸膛，但是它活在过去，现在和将来永世，他在这满目疮痍的世界里一视同仁，激励着一代一代的人，夜莺的歌声无处不在，是大地众生的希望，美的事物是万事永存的。 本首诗想象丰富，情感强烈，并在对比中显示出艺术魅力。诗人善于运用现实与理想的尖锐对立来展示诗人内心那无法克制的矛盾冲突；善于创造半虚半实的幻境和似梦非梦的情

济慈《夜莺颂》的意象手法对主题的诠释 吴艳萍张明悦 （辽宁工业大学外国语学院辽宁锦州121001） 摘要： 约翰·济慈是19世纪英国著名的浪漫主义诗人，他在《夜莺颂》中运用各种感官意象把夜莺的欢乐境界描写成五彩缤纷的、令人向往的梦幻世界。诗人借助这种意象手法表达了自己心中强烈的思想感情和对自由世界的向往。 关键词：济慈；夜莺颂；意象；主题 中图分类号: I106. 2 文献标识码:A 在《夜莺颂》中，诗人通过夜莺的歌声阐述了其对美好世界的追求，不难看出他试图脱离尘世的痛苦与忧愁。读者亦能看出在梦幻般的美妙世界和残酷的现实面前，诗人又无法永远停留在夜莺的境界，于是他只能借助诗歌的力量，在诗的世界里达到心愿。这是他热爱生活，珍惜生命的体现，也能看出他在短暂而又痛苦的人生中对美的向往和追求。济慈在表达这样的主题时，采用了多种意象的表现手法，本文通过对诗人的写作手法的研究进一步探究诗人的心境。 济慈（1795—1821），19世纪英国著名的浪漫主义诗人。他出生于伦敦的一个普通的农民家庭，由于出身贫寒，济慈一生穷困潦倒。幼年时期生活悲惨至极。八岁时父亲去世，十四岁时母亲去世。由于生活窘迫，再加上先天遗传因素不好，济慈的身体每况愈下，二十四岁的时候就染上了可怕的不治之症-肺痨。疾病的困扰使他不得不与自己相恋多年的未婚妻分手。然而身体和精神双重打击却没有让诗人一蹶不振。因为济慈知道只要追求美，才能洞察美，感悟美。这样的信念一直激励着济慈勇敢地走完人生，敏锐高雅的心态是诗人前进的动力，同时也点燃了世人的希望之路。21岁时开始诗歌创作，1817年出版了第一本诗集。《伊莎贝拉》、《圣亚尼节前夜》、《许佩里恩》等长诗是他的巅峰之作，《夜莺颂》、《希腊古瓮颂》、《秋颂》是广为流传的脍炙人口的佳作。1818年，23岁的济慈爱上了邻居范妮·布恩小姐，但是那个时候济慈得了严重的肺病，尽管处于热恋中的济慈憧憬着美好的未来，但是寒酸的经济条件加上病入膏肓的身体状况，诗人只能把美好的憧憬寄托于诗歌当中去。一个春天的早晨济慈坐在花园里的树下，用心体会着春天的气息，温暖的阳光和美妙的夜莺的歌声让诗人回味着自己和未婚妻曾有的幸福，济慈为这样的美好生活而陶醉，诗人的创作激情也被燃烧起来。于是《夜莺颂》诞生了。《夜莺颂》正是在这种悲愤与渴望中创作出来的。1821年，济慈在朋友的资助下前往意大利治疗休养，但是不幸的是此后不久，由于病情恶化，济慈病逝于罗马，年仅25岁。约翰·济慈在自己短暂的一生中创作了大量的诗歌，这是他对诗歌艺术的孜孜以求和无私奉献。济慈的诗歌是唯美的代表。尽管济慈出身卑微，穷困潦倒，疾病缠身，但是他从来没有放弃对艺术的追求。济慈把自己有生之年无法实现的愿望寄予诗歌，他希望自己的梦想能在诗歌中实现。《夜莺颂》中一系列意象手法的运用源于他对真实世界的仔细品味。这种对自然世界的感知和热爱正是诗人对生活的憧憬。因此《夜莺颂》也是浪漫主义和现实主义的结合与统一。 济慈运用意象的手法构造了一个美好的梦幻般的世界。首先诗人被夜莺的歌声打动，因为“你的幸福使我太欢欣”。夜莺的歌声代表着诗人内心向往的欢愉，夜莺的欢乐境界正是诗人要找寻的，于是济慈借助美酒来到
