朱维之《外国文学简编[欧美部分]》 课后习题 (19世纪中期批判现实主义文学)【圣才出品】
第7章19世纪中期批判现实主义文学1.请比较批判现实主义与浪漫主义的异同。
答:(1)批判现实主义和浪漫主义的相同点二者都是时代的产物,带有反判精神和民主思想,都具有纪实性。
(2)比较批判现实主义与浪漫主义的区别①在对待客观现实的态度上的不同浪漫主义不屑于对现实作精确的描绘,而是着力地表现理想型、未来型,现实不存在而应该存在的生活。
而现实主义则强调对人和事物作如实的描绘,它写的是生活本来是怎么样的。
例如郭沫若的《凤凰涅槃》,并不醉心于现实世界的精雕细琢,全篇洋溢着强烈的主观抒情,表达了中国人民对封建主义和帝国主义的憎恨,对光明和未来的热心向往,对理想世界如醉如痴的讴歌。
而鲁迅的《祝福》,描绘了祥林嫂悲惨的一生,在读者眼前展现出一幅现实生活的真实图画,通过这一篇旧中国劳动妇女的血泪史,揭示了半封建半殖民地的中国农村的人际关系,反映了一定社会生活的本质。
②在人物意象的建构上的不同浪漫主义把全部感情倾注在超现实生活中的伟人、英雄身上,赋予人物以理想的光辉,超人的毅力和智慧,从而绘制理想中的英雄伟人形象。
而现实主义则把全部注意力集中在现实生活中活生生的普通人身上,将其外貌特征、言谈举止、心理状态等,逼真、客观地再现出来,散发着强烈的生活气息,让读者产生真实可信、身临其境的感受。
例如,李白与杜甫同为唐代诗人。
李白诗中的人物形象,因为现实中的坎坷遭遇,而满怀悲愤,因而在梦中畅游天姥,与神仙同歌同舞,如痴如醉,保持了心灵上、精神上的超越一切霸绊,极端自由的可贵的内核。
而杜甫诗中的抒情主人公则颠簸在现实的战火与坎坷之中,目睹的是“夜吏捉人,老翁逾墙,老妇哭诉”等现实中的真人真事,经历的是“天阴雨漏,娇儿饥哭,破被如铁”的穷人遭遇,痛苦、眼泪、呻吟,一切都是现实中人物的活生生再现。
③在艺术表现的手法上的不同浪漫主义作品大都具有宏伟的气势、磅礴的激情、昂扬的节奏、大胆的夸张、绚丽的幻想、缤纷的语言。
而现实主义则往往要求细腻的描绘、客观的叙述、冷静的刻画、朴素的语言、讲究细节的逼真刻写。
