7.船长约翰·史密斯Captain John Smith他的作品(reports of exploration)17th C.早期出版,被认为是美国第一部真正意义上的文学作品in the early 1600s,have been described as the first distinctly American literature written in English.8.早期新英格兰文学主要关于theological, moral, historical and political.9.清教徒坚韧耐劳,严格遵守教义the Puritans in New England embraced hardships, together with the discipline of aharsh church想建立神权社会found a theocracy,他们生活简朴,意志坚定,我行我素,不屈不挠地斗争they had toughness, purpose and character, they grappled strongly with challenges they set themselves.他们的基本价值观:注重勤劳,节俭,虔诚和节制hard work, thrift, piety and sobriety这些也成了早期美国作品主导思想。
一、William Bradford 威廉·布拉德福德Plymouth first governor:William Bradford←Puritan+ Separatist(1590-1657)Boston第一任首长:John Winthrop.1.William Bradford:《普利茅斯开发历史》“The History of Plymouth Plantation”文章从1630年开始写起an account of the small group of Puritans who migrated from England to Amsterdam and then to the New Wold.文字简洁,认真负责,直接叙述,可读性强simplicity and earnestness of the book, with its direct reporting, make it readable and moving.1637年他用简单的律诗对自己一生写了个总结,后来科登·马瑟写道:他是众人之福,也是众人之父“a common blessing and father to them all”2.John Winthrop:《新英格兰历史》“The History of New England”.3.他们并不出于创作需要而是记录历史,但却运用了直接生动的散文格式使文章成为了好的文学作品the need to record important events in permanent form. Yet, through a direct and vigorous prose style, each account literary excellence.4.清教徒(Puritan):就是要净化他们的宗教信仰和行为方式,要纯洁自己信仰的人Puritans wanted to make pure their religious beliefs and practices, The Puritan was “Would-be purifier”. 总认为自己是上帝选民looked upon themselves as a chosen people.对他们的生活方式提出异议就是反对上帝旨意anyone who challenged their way of life was opposing God’s Will and was not to be accepted.对自己的信仰视之如命,对别人信仰不能容忍they were zealous in defense of their own beliefs but often intolerant of the beliefs of others. 制定法律限制个人生活行为made laws about private morality as well as public behavior霍桑称他们为“黑眉毛的古板的清教徒”“stern and black-browed Puritans”. Wish to restore simplicity and authority of the Bible to theology. 2 groups: 1) Plymouth Plantation group--most extreme puritans, “Separatists”2) Massachusetts Bay group, wish to reform the church but remain a part of it.二、John Cotton 约翰·科顿1.John Cotton称为“新英格兰教父”the Patriarch of New England. 1633年到Boston开始一直是这社区精神导师,他所宣讲的由宗教来统治国家的神权思想直接影响了当时人们的行为he was the “teacher”(spiritual leader) of the community and its guiding influence toward the ideal of theocracy(a state ruled by the church)他的影响主要通过教堂讲坛来完成his primary influence was through the pulpit. 听众对他深信不疑。
他们清教徒强调权威,忽视民主they were much more concerned with authority than with democracy.三、Anne Bradstreet and Edward Taylor安妮·布莱德斯特和爱德华·泰勒这两位清教徒写的诗达到相当高水平,真正能称得上是诗作。

2.她的第一部作品由她的姐夫交给伦敦出版商,the title of this collection of poems, in classical allusion(用比喻的方法)即《在美洲诞生的第十个谬斯》“The Tenth Muse Lately Sprung Up in America”.诗歌中传奇故事有点言过其实,但对日常琐事叙述相当高超poetic ventures were overambitious but wrote well when dealt with the simple events of her daily life.3.Edward Taylor:清教徒诗人中最杰出的一位the best of the Puritan poets 他的作品遵循了十七世纪中期一些杰出诗人风格和形式his work followed they style and forms of the leading English poets of the mid-seventeenth century。
他大部分作品关于宗教的,大部分诗歌直接以赞美诗为基础进行创作的most of Taylor’s work treated religious themes, with many poems based directly on the Psalms.在世时没出版过作品,1937年发现手稿,1960年泰勒诗歌全集。
