1. Romanticism: The literature terms was first applied to the writers of the 18th century in Europe who broke away from the formal rules of classical writing. When it was used in American literature it referred to the writers of the middle of the 19th century who stimulated the sentimental emotions of their readers. They wrote of the mysteries of life, love birth, and death. The romantic writers expressed themselves freely and without restraint. They wrote all kinds of materials: poetry, essays, plays, fiction, history, works of travel, and biography.

2. Transcendentalism is a philosophic and literary movement that flourished in New England, particularly at Concord, as a reaction against rationalism and Calvinism. Mainly, it stressed intuitive understanding of God without the help of the church, and advocated independence of the mind. The representative writers are Emerson and Thoreau.

Part VI. (20%)

The story takes place along the Mississippi River. Along this river floats a small raft, with two people on it: one is an ignorant, uneducated Black slave named Jim and the other is a little uneducated outcast whit boy of about the age of 13, called Huckleberry Finn. The book relates the story of the escape of Jim from slavery and , more important, how Huck Finn, floating along with Jim and helping him as best he could, changed his mind, his prejudice, about Black people, and came to accept Jim as a man and as a close friend as well.

The story mainly involves two themes. The first is of slavery, demonstrates how racism distorts the oppressors as much as it does those who are oppressed. The result is a world of moral confusion, in which seemingly ―good‖ white people such as Miss Watson and Sally Phelps express no concern about the injustice of slavery or the cruelty of separating Jim from his family The second theme is the hypocrisy of ―civilized‖ society. When Huck plans to head west at eh end of the novel in order to escape further ― civilizing,‖ he is trying to avoid more than regular baths and mandatory school attendance. Throughout the novel, Twain depicts the society that surrounds Huck as little more than a collection of degraded rules an precepts that defy logic.

《外国文学史》 练习题(一)参考答案解析

《外国文学史》练习题(一)参考答案 一、分析论述题 1.比较分析文艺复兴时期意大利、西班牙、法国和英国文学发展的异同。 意大利: 是文艺复兴运动的发源地,因而人文主义文学的新文学出现也最早。彼特拉克是人文主义的先驱,被誉为“人文主义之父”。他用意大利语写成的抒情诗集是《歌集》,主要歌咏对劳拉的爱情,表现了以现世幸福为中心的爱情观。《歌集》的形式,以十四行诗为主,为后来欧洲抒情诗开辟一条新的道路。 薄迦丘的杰作是《十日谈》。该作勇敢地向教会的禁欲主义提出挑战。作品反映意大利社会的现实,多以爱情为主题,大胆揭露天主教僧侣和封建贵族的生活腐朽、道德败坏;赞美商人、手工业者的聪明、勇敢、热爱现世生活,反对禁欲主义。 15世纪以后,意大利的人文主义文学曾一度繁荣,但总的成就不如早期。 法国: 法国的人文主义文学开始于15世纪末,16世纪取得了很高的成就。法国人文主义文学的显著特点是自始至终存在着贵族和平民两种倾向。 以龙沙等七人组成的“七星诗社”具有浓重的贵族倾向。他们肯定生活,歌颂自然与爱情,反对禁欲主义,注重民族语言的统一和民族诗歌的建立,但轻视民间语言和民间文学,艺术上追求典雅的风格。 拉伯雷是法国人文主义文学平民倾向的杰出代表 西班牙: 西班牙从15世纪末走向统一,但强盛时期非常短暂,16世纪中叶以后便开始衰落。因此,资本主义关系没有得到充分发展,人文主义文学出现较晚。此前西班牙文坛的流浪汉小说和骑士文学畸形繁荣,直到16世纪、17世纪间,人文主义文学才带来了西班牙文学的“黄金时代”。西班牙人文主义文学的杰出作家是塞万提斯。 这一时期的戏剧得到了繁荣。维加是西班牙戏剧的奠基者,被誉为“西班牙戏剧之父”。代表作为《羊泉村》,描绘了1476年羊泉村人民反抗领主压迫的史实。 英国: 英国的人文主义文学在14世纪就已经出现。最早的作家是乔叟。在意大利人文主义文学影响下,他的诗作显示出反封建、反教会、追求个性自由的倾向。代表作是《坎特伯雷故事集》受薄迦丘《十日谈》影响,较全面地反映了14世纪英国的社会生活,揭露了封建阶级尤其是教会的腐败无耻,肯定了对世俗爱情的追求。 15世纪末,一批新的人文主义学者登上文坛。托马斯·莫尔是其中最重要的代表。他的主要著作《乌托邦》是一部对话体幻想小说,成为欧洲空想社会主义的最初重要著作之一。 16世纪,英国文艺复兴运动达到高潮,人文主义文学空前发达。此时文学成就最大的是戏剧。在莎士比亚之前,出现了一批所谓“大学才子”的剧作家。“大学才子”剧作家是16世纪后期在英国出现的一批人文主义剧作家,他们大都受过大学教育,具有人文主义思想,学识渊博,在戏剧创作上颇有创新。代表人物有李利、马洛等,他们为莎士比亚戏剧的出现准备了条件。马洛在“大学才子”中年龄最小贡献最大,是莎士比亚的先

美国文学史复习资料

美国文学史复习(colonialism) 第一部分殖民主义时期的文学 一、时期综述 1、清教徒采用的文学体裁:a、narratives 日记b、journals 游记 2、清教徒在美国的写作内容: 1)their voyage to the new land 2) Adapting themselves to unfamiliar climates and crops 3) About dealing with Indians 4) Guide to the new land, endless bounty, invitation to bold spirit 3、清教徒的思想: 1)puritan want to make up pure their religious beliefs and practices 净化信仰和行为方式 2) Wish to restore simplicity to church and the authority of the Bible to the theology. 重建教堂,提供简单服务,建立神圣地位 3)look upon themselves as chosen people, and it follow logically that anyone who challenged their way of life is opposing God's will and is not to be accepted. 认为自己是上帝选民,对他们的生活有异议就是反对上帝 4)puritan opposition to pleasure and the arts sometimes has been exaggerated. 反对对快乐和艺术的追求到了十分荒唐的地步5)religious teaching tended to emphasize the image of a wrathful God.强调上帝严厉的一面,忽视上帝仁慈的一面。 4、典型的清教徒:John Cotton & Roger William 他们的不同:John Cotton was much more concerned with authority than with democracy; William begins the history of religious toleration in America. 5、William的宗教观点:Toleration did not stem from a lack of religious convictions. Instead, it sprang from the idea that simply to be virtuous in conduct and devout in belief did not give anyone the right to force belief on others. He also felt that no political order or church system could identify itself directly with God. 行为上的德,信仰上的诚,并没有给任何人强迫别人该如何行事的权利。没有任何政治秩序和教会体制能够直接体现神本身的意旨。 6、英国最早移民到美国的诗人:Anne Bradstreet 7、在殖民时期最好的清教徒诗人:the best of Puritan poets is Edward Tayor. 学习指南: 1、Could you give a description of American Puritans? 关于美国清教徒的描绘 Like their brothers back in England, were idealists, believing that the church should be restored to the "purity" of the first-century church as established by Jesus Christ himself. To them religion was a matter of primary importance. They made it their chief business to see that man lived and thought and acted in a way which tended to the glory of God. They accepted the doctrine of predestination, original sin and total depravity, and limited atonement through a special infusion of grace from God, all that John Calvin, the great French theologian who lived in Geneva had preached. It was this kind of religious belief that they brought with them into the wildness. There they meaant to prove that were God's chosen people enjoying his blessings on this earth as in Heaven. 2、Hard work, thrift, piety and sobriety were the Puritan values that dominated much of the earliest American writing. 3、The work of two writers, Anne Bradstreet & Edward Taylor, rose to the level of real poetry.
