poverty are unknown.

to a narrow range of society and events: a quiet, prosperous, middle-class circle in provincial surroundings.

She treated her writing material with such subtlety of observation, depth of psychological penetration and delicacy of touch that she is ranked among the best of English novelists.

3. Aestheticism

~~Aestheticism places art above life.

~~According to the aesthetes, all artistic creation is absolutely subjective as opposed to objective.

~~Art should be free from any influence of egoism. Only when art is for art’s sake, can it be immortal. They believed that art should be unconcerned with controversial issues, such as politics and morality, and that it should be restricted to contributing beauty in a highly polished style.

~~This was one of the reactions against the materialism and commercialism of the Victorian industrial era, as well as a reaction against the Victorian convention of art for morality’s sake, or art for money’s sake.

英国文学名家名著 《贝奥武甫》(Beowulf)是英国盎格鲁?撒克逊时期的一首英雄史诗,古英语文学的最高成就,同时标志着英国文学的开始。史诗的第一部分讲述瑞典青年王子贝奥武甫来到丹麦,帮助丹麦国王赫罗斯加杀死了12年来常来进行夜袭的巨妖格伦德尔及他的母亲;第二部分简述了贝奥武甫继承王位,平安统治50年。后来,他的国土被一条喷火巨龙蹂躏,老当益壮的贝奥武甫与火龙交战,杀死火龙,自己也受了致命伤。 杰弗里?乔叟(Geoffrey Chaucer ,1340-1400)是英国文学之父亲和前最杰出的作家。主要作品有《坎特伯雷故事集》等。作品的主要特点是主题、题材、风格、笔调的多样性及描写人对生活的追求的复杂性。他的代表作品是《坎特伯雷故事集》(The Canterbury Tales)不仅描绘了31位朝圣者的各个社会阶层,而且也反映了他们各自叙述故事的不同风格,读者广泛,对后世影响很大。 威廉?莎士比亚(William Shakespeare ,1564-1616)是文艺复兴时期英国著名的剧作家和诗人。他创作了大量的作品,其中包括喜剧、悲剧和历史剧。他的剧本至今仍在许多国家上演,并为人们所普遍阅读。莎上比亚的作品文才横溢,创造的喜、怒、哀、乐场面使人印象深刻,历久难忘。主要作品有四大悲剧:《奥赛罗》(Othello)、《哈姆雷特》(Hamlet)、《麦克白》(Macbeth),《李尔王》(King Lear);

四大喜剧:《仲夏夜之梦》(A Midsummer Night’s Dream)、《威尼斯商人》(The Merchant of Venice)、《无事生非》(Much Ado about Nothing)和《皆大欢喜》(As You Like It)等。此外,历史剧《亨利六世》(Henry VI)三部曲,爱情悲剧《罗密欧与朱丽叶》(Romeo and Juliet)也都很受欢迎。《哈姆雷特》叙述了丹麦王子哈姆雷特替父报仇,杀死篡夺王位的叔父的故事。《哈姆雷特》里“to be or not to be, that is the question”的成为经典台词。《罗密欧与朱丽叶》描写了一对青年男女因家族间的世仇而不能联姻结果自杀的故事,揭露了封建制度的残酷无情,同时,歌颂了青年男女纯洁坚贞的爱情。 济慈(Keats, 1795一1821)是英国浪漫主义诗人。他出身贫苦,作过医生的学徒,后来才以写诗为业。他对当时英国社会的现实不满,希望在一个“永恒的美的世界”中寻找安身立命之处。他的诗歌以文辞声调之美著称,在艺术上对后代的英国诗人影响很大。主要作品有《伊沙贝拉》(Isabella)、《夜莺颂》(Ode to a Nightingale)和《秋颂》(To Autumn)等。 雪莱(Shelley ,1792一 1822)是英国浪漫主义的重要诗人。他生于贵族家庭。他既创作了富于政治思想性的诗,也写了很多优美的抒情诗,特别是爱情诗,显示了不羁的想象,瑰丽的色彩和动人的音韵,这些使他成为英国文学史上最有才华的抒情诗人之一。他的主要作品有《麦布女王》(Queen Mab)、《致英国人民之歌》(Song to the

英国文学各个时期的特点

英国文学7个时期 英国文学发端于中世纪,经历了古英语、中古英语、文艺复兴、17世纪、18世纪、19世纪、20世纪文学7个时期,取得了举世瞩目的成就。 古英语文学英国在10世纪以前属于古英语时期,早期的凯尔特等部族 及5世纪入侵的盎格鲁初都没有留下书面文学。6世纪末到7世纪末,由 于肯特国王阿瑟尔伯特皈依基督教,该教僧侣开始以拉丁文著书写诗,其中以 比德所著《英国人民宗教史》最有历史和文学价值。9世纪,威塞克斯国 王阿尔弗雷德为振兴文化,组织人力将各种拉丁文著作译成英语,并倡导以 英语撰写《盎格鲁-撒克逊编年史》,其中包括有关盎格鲁-撒克逊和朱特人的 英雄史诗《贝奥武甫》和《朱迪斯》,以及一些抒情诗、方言诗、谜语和宗教诗、宗教记述文、布道词。 中古英语文学11世纪,随着诺曼人入侵,古英语渐渐演化为中古英语,文学 上开始流行模仿法国的韵文体骑士传奇,其中以《高文骑士与绿衣骑士》最有 艺术价值。14世纪后半叶是中古英语发展的高峰,出现了似受古英语诗影响的 口头韵体诗,最有名的长诗《农夫彼尔斯的幻想》,一般认为是教会人员朗兰德所写,以中世纪梦幻故事的形式探讨人间善恶,讽刺社会丑行,表达对贫苦农 民的深切同情。此时期国王查理第二当政,宫廷开始用盎格鲁-诺曼法语,王 室贵族兴起赞助文人之风。英国文学史上出现的第一位大诗人乔叟以其诗体短 篇小说集《坎特伯雷故事集》和其他长短诗集成为英国文学的重要奠基人。15 世纪,有民间歌谣抄本流传至今,最有名的是关于绿林好汉罗宾汉的传说;马 洛礼的散文小说《亚瑟王之死》为英国小说的雏形。 文艺复兴时期文学16世纪中叶至17世纪初主要是伊丽莎白女王时代,英国开 始文艺复兴运动。学者纷纷翻译意大利和法国学术、文学名著并自行 著述,以托马斯·莫尔(1477~1535)的《乌托邦》最有价值。英国文艺 复兴文学最突出的是诗歌和戏剧。西德尼(1554~1586)的十四行诗、斯宾 塞的《仙后》都是诗歌方面的代表作。在剧本中运用重韵体诗的文体,促使诗 歌和戏剧两方面都达到空前的成就。莎士比亚将这种诗剧发展到登峰造极的地步,他还擅写十四行诗和长篇叙事诗。稍晚的本·琼森(1572~1637)擅写社
