英美文学PPT课件7.Mark Twa

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain) was born in Florida and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mother's tender care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all of his friends and neighbors. He didn't like to go to school, and he constantly ran away from home.
Characters came from poorer, super-rural or superurban backgrounds
Included workers at factories, people living in slums,
etc. – the types of people who never showed up as
romantic heroes

Twain as a Realist
Twain is one of the greatest realists – possibly the greatest – of all time.

• By the turn of the century, with the publication of The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg (1900), “To the Person Sitting in Darkness” (1901), and “The Mysterious Stranger” (1916), his obsessive vision of man as greedy numbskull笨蛋, oafish疵呆 的、畸形的, hypocritical, cruel and predatory, was wholly ahis wife and two daughters left him embittered and lonely. • The failure of his publishing firm and a series of bad financial investments brought him humiliation and bankruptcy, leading him to travel throughout the world on a lecture series to pay off his debts, a long and exhausting experience he recorded with barely disguised weariness in Following the Equator (1897).
• By the time he came to write A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court (1889), with its angry satire on royalty, religion, and the chivalric ideals of Arthurian England, his work had become more serious and critical.

以讽刺手法批判宗教教育的危害；揭露世俗社 会人们为了个人利益彼此欺诈、勾心斗角的社 会风气；暴露民主、自由掩盖下的美国社会真 相，批判种族歧视和伪民主社会现实。

In 1861, the American Civil War destroyed the traffic along the Mississippi.
He left the Mississippi at the outbreak of the war, and became, in swift succession, an army volunteer, a gold prospector in Nevada.
He was a failure at gold mining, so he next turned to journalism. While a reporter, he wrote a humorous story,
He became apprenticed to a printer and began contributing to his brother’s newspaper in 1851.
From 1857 to 1861 he found himself a pilot on the Mississippi River.
-- Ernest Hemingway
★ "I believe that Mark Twain had a clearer vision of life, that he came nearer to its elementals and was less deceived by its false appearances than any other American. I believe that he was the true father of our national literature.-- H.L. Mencken

马克·吐温口语化影响 马克 吐温口语化影响 吐温
马克·吐温开创了美国小说口语化的先河。 直接受口语化影响的作家有：舍伍德·安德 森、海明威、福克纳等。美国诗人T•S•艾略 特、庞德、E•E•卡明斯等人的诗歌所表现 出的口语化特点，也同马克·吐温的文风有 密切关系。 T•S•艾略特说他在英美开创了新文风，是 “英语的新发现”。肖伯纳认为他是英语的 语言大师。 福克纳也说：“我认为，马克·吐温是第一 个真正的美国作家。我们大家都是他的继承 人。我们都是他的胄裔。” 至今，在美国，用方言土语叙述故事已成为 一个主要的文学传统。

1、现实主义的客观描写与浪漫主义的主观抒情完美 结合 ； 2、具有原型意象的象征意蕴； 3、采用第一人称叙事，出色描写儿童的心理行为； 4、轻松的幽默与犀利的讽刺熔于一炉； 5、使用经过提炼的南方方言俚语——自然流畅、丰富 生动、简洁轻松的“美国英语”。 “全部美国文学起源于一本叫《哈克贝利·费恩历 险记》的书……这是我们所有的书中最好的一本。” ——海明威
“全部现在美国文学都起源于马克·吐温的一 本叫《哈克贝利·芬历险记》的书……这是 我们所有的书里最好的一本。所有的美国 作品都从它而来，在它之前什么也没有， 自它以来也没有像它那样的作品出现。” ——海明威
