Metaphysical poetry is a kind of realistic, often ironic and witty, verse combing intellectual ingenuity and psychological insight written partly in reaction to the conventions of Elizabethan love poetry by such seventeenth-century poets as John Donne, George Herbert, Richard Crashaw, Thomas Traherne, and Andrew Marvell. One of its hallmarks is the metaphysical conceit, a particularly arresting and ingenious type of metaphor.2 A protagonist whose distinctive qualities are directly opposite to, or incompatible with, those associated with the traditional hero. Such an opposition by no means implies that the character is evil or villainous but often tends to reflect the author’s belief that modern life no longer tolerates or produces individuals capable of genuine heroism, in its classic sense.V1.1) Jane Austen is one of the realistic novelists. She drew vivid and realistic pictures of everyday life of the countrysociety in her novels.2) Austen’s work has a very narrow literary field. She confines herself to small country parishes, whose simple countrypeople became the characters of her novels, but within her own field, she is unrivaled.3) her novels show a wealth of humor, wit and delicate satire. Her pots are straight-forward; there is little action. Hercharacters are like real living creatures, with faults and virtues mixed as they are in real life. Her prose flows easily and naturally. Her dialogue is admirably true to life.2. The major contribution made by the 19th century critical realists is their perfection of the novel. Like the realists of the 18th century, the 19th century critical realist made use of the form of novel of full and detailed representations of social and political events, and of the fate of individuals and of whole social classes. However, the realistic novels of the 19th century went a step further than those of the 18th century in that they not only pictured the conflicts between individuals who stood for definite social strata, but also showed the broad social conflicts over and above the fate of mere individuals. Their artistic representation of vital social movements such as Chartism, and their vivid description of the dramatic conflicts of the time make the 19th century realistic novel “the epic of the bourgeois society”.3．1. Emily Dickinson——Because I Could Not Stop for Death2. ①school is an image of childhood ;②field is an image of adulthood ;③setting sun is an image of old age .3. (point only )cycle of life and death with 3 stages and a final stage of eternity .练习题第4套参考答案I 1—5 a a c d b 6—10 d d a c d 11—15 b a d b bII 10 , 1 , 5 , 6 , 3 , 8 , 2 , 4 , 7 , 9III1-5 F F T F F 6-10 T T T T TIV1.Irony is an implied discrepancy between what is said and what is meant.Three kinds of irony:1. verbal irony is when an author says one thing and means something else.2. dramatic irony is when an audience perceives something that a character in the literature does not know.3. irony of situation is a discrepency between the expected result and actual results.2. Aestheticism. The basic theory of the Aesthetic movement is “art for art’s sake”. Aestheticism places art above life,and holds that life should imitate art, not art imitate 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. 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. The representatives are Oscar Wilde and Walter Pater.V1. 1). effect of Civil War ;2). development of industry and trade widen the gap between the rich and the poor ;3) closing of frontier .2As a novelist, he promoted the theory of realism in literary creation. He believed that a truthful artist’s duty was to produce human nature faithfully and accurately as he saw it. In novel writing, he had the principles of characterization and typification which modern English writers are still using. Though he is not the first English novelist, he has generally been considered as “the father of English novel”3Modernist English poetry has the following chief traits. 1. Modernist poets insisted on “direct treatment of things”and on the avoidance of all words “that do not contribute to the presentation” 2. Modernist poetry has freer metrical movement. 3. Modernism introduced into poetry a much higher degree of intellectual complexity because of the enthusiasm for metaphysical poetry. 4. The modernist poets frequently made use of symbolism 5. it brought poetic language and rhythm closer to that of conversation by the use of colloquial expressions and even slang. 6, it employed irony and puns which had been banished from serious poetry for over two hundred years 7. it was often international and urban in theme.练习题第5套参考答案I 1-5 c d b d a 6-10 c c b b dIIPoe , Dreiser , Dos Passos , Eliot , Heller ,Frost , Bellow , Jade Snow Wang , Miller , O'NeillIII1-5 F T F F T 6-10 T T T F TⅣ1.
