20世纪外国文学史小抄重点

20世纪世界文学一方面具有多元化、多样性的发展特点,另一方面又呈现出交叉融合的发展趋势。

后现代主义文学包含诸多反传统的文学派别,主要有存在主义文学、荒诞派戏剧、新小说派、“黑色幽默”和“魔幻现实主义”等。

1.黑色幽默是20世纪60年代盛行于美国的主要文学流派之一。

“黑色”的含义是绝望、恐怖、残酷和痛苦,黑色幽默的作家强调世界的荒谬、混乱、神秘莫测以及人与环境的不协调,用喜剧的手法来处理不幸、痛苦和丑恶。

作品所引发的笑声是一种苦笑、惨笑、绝望的笑,主要代表作家是海勒,其代表作品是《第二十二条军规》主人公尤索林。

2.德莱塞的《美国的悲剧》小说主人公是克莱特,小说着重描述了克莱特是如何由一个单纯的青年沦为杀人犯的过程,说明了造成这种悲剧人生的根源是美国经济繁荣和道德堕落的矛盾状态。

3.海明威的“冰山原理”:通过省略的方式,用简洁的文字塑造出鲜明的形象,并把作者自己的感受最大限度的藏在形象之中,使之含而不露。

根据这一原理,海明威在创作中形成了简洁、清新的文体风格和结构。

在表现复杂的的思想感情时,常用电报式的对话、内心独白、象征手法和意识流手法等。

4.海明威的《老人与海》荣获诺贝尔文学奖,作品通过桑提亚哥和鲨鱼的搏斗来展现人和自然的搏斗,象征精神是不能被打败的。

桑提亚哥名义上是普通的老渔夫,实际上是整个人类的代表。

他的“硬汉精神”。

5.意识流小说:20世纪20年代至40年代盛行于美国,其特点是作家退出小说,取消故事情节,表现人物内心深处的心理活动。

主要代表人物和作品有:法国普鲁斯特的《追忆逝水年华》,爱尔兰乔伊斯的《尤利西斯》,英国伍尔夫飞《墙上的斑点》,美国福克纳的《喧哗与骚动》。

6.后期象征主义的代表人物有:法国的瓦雷里,奥地利的里尔克,英国的叶芝和艾略特。

其中的诗人代表是叶芝和艾略特。

艾略特的长诗《荒原》是表现西方精神危机的一部史诗般的著作。

7.英国作家劳伦斯的主要代表作品有《儿子与情人》、《查特莱妇人的情人》和《虹》,作品中过多描写性爱,表现西方人在精神上的状态。

二十世纪小说家--意识流(英文版)

二十世纪小说家--意识流(英文版)

James Joyce 詹姆斯乔伊斯(1882-1941), Irish novelist, noted for his experimental use of language in such works as Ulysses《尤利西斯》(1922) and Finnegans Wake《芬妮根的苏醒》(1939). Joyce's technical innovations in the art of the novel include an extensive use of interior monologue; he used a complex network of symbolic parallels drawn from the mythology, history, and literature, and created a unique language of invented words, puns, and allusions.James Joyce was born in Dublin, on February 2, 1882, as the son of John Stanislaus Joyce, an impoverished gentleman, who had failed in a distillery business and tried all kinds of professions, including politics and tax collecting. Joyce's mother, Mary Jane Murray, was ten years younger than her husband. She was an accomplished pianist, whose life was dominated by the Roman Catholic Church. In spite of their poverty, the family struggled to maintain a solid middle-class facade.From the age of six Joyce, was educated by Jesuits at Clongowes Wood College, at Clane, and then at Belvedere College in Dublin (1893-97). In 1898 he entered the University College, Dublin. Joyce's first publication was an essay on Ibsen's play When We Dead Awaken. It appeared in the Fortnightly Review in 1900. At this time he also began writing lyric poems.After graduation in 1902 the twenty-year-old Joyce went to Paris, where he worked as a journalist, teacher and in other occupations under difficult financial conditions. He spent a year in France, returning when a telegram arrived saying his mother was dying. Not long after her death, Joyce was traveling again. He left Dublin in 1904 with Nora Barnacle, a chambermaid who he married in 1931.Joyce published Dubliners in 1914, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man in 1916, a play Exiles in 1918 and Ulysses in 1922. In 1907 Joyce had published a collection of poems, Chamber Music.At the outset of the First World War, Joyce moved with his family to Zürich. In Zürich Joyce started to develop the early chapters of Ulysses, which was first published in France because of censorship troubles in the Great Britain and the United States, where the book became legally available only in 1933. In March 1923 Joyce started in Paris his second major work, Finnegans Wake, suffering at the same time chronic eye troubles caused by glaucoma. The first segment of the novel appeared in Ford Madox Ford's transatlantic review in April 1924, as part of what Joyce called Work in Progress. The final version was published in 1939.Some critics considered the work a masterpiece, though many readers found it incomprehensible. After the fall of France in WWII, Joyce returned to Zürich, where he died on January 13, 1941, still disappointed with the reception of Finnegans Wake.The above biography is copyrighted. Do not republish it without permission.o Other works:FictionA Portrait Of The Artist As A Young ManDubliners《都柏林人》(Araby;The Sisters;An Encounter;Eveline;The Dead…)Virginia Woolf 弗吉尼亚沃尔夫(1882-1941), English author, feminist, essayist, publisher, and critic wrote A Room of One’s Own (1929);All I could do was to offer you an opinion upon one minor point—a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction; and that, as you will see, leaves the great problem of the true nature of woman and the true nature of fiction unsolved.-Ch. 1Now regarded as a classic feminist work, Woolf based her extended essay A Room on lectures she had given at women‟s colleges at Cambridge University. Using such female authors as Jane Austen and Emily and Charlotte Bronte, she examines women and their struggles as artists, their position in literary history and need for independence. She also invents a female counterpart of William Shakespeare, a sister named Judith to at times sarcastically get her point across. Woolf proved to be an innovative and influential 20th Century author. In some of her novels she moves away from the use of plot and structure to employ stream-of-consciousness to emphasise the psychological aspects of her characters. Themes in her works include gender relations, class hierarchy and the consequences of war. Woolf was among the founders of the Modernist movement which also includes T. S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, James Joyce, and Gertrude Stein.The effects of bi-polar disorder at times caused Woolf protracted periods of convalescence, withdrawing from her busy social life, distressed that she could not focus long enough to read or write. She spent times in nursing homes for …rest cures‟; frankly referred to herself as …mad‟; said she heard voices and had visions. “My own brain is to me the most unaccountable of machinery—always buzzing, humming, soaring roaring diving, and then buried in mud. And why? What’s this passion for?” (from a letter dated 28 Dec. 1932). The subject of suicide enters her stories and essays at times and she disagreed with the perception that it is an act of cowardice and sin. When Virginia was not depressed she worked intensely for long hours at a time. She was vivacious, witty and ebul lient company and a member of the Bloomsbury Group or …Bloomsbury‟ which had been started by her brother Thoby and his friends from Cambridge. It quickly grew to encompass many of London‟s literary circle, who gathered to discuss art, literature, and polit ics. During her life and since her death she has been the subject of much debate and discussion surrounding the sexual abuse she suffered at the hands of her half-brother, her mental health issues and sexual orientation. Also, her pacifist political views in line with Bloomsbury caused controversy. From Three Guineas (1931);Therefore if you insist upon fighting to protect me, or “our” country, let it be understood, soberly and rationally between us, that you are fighting to gratify a sex instinct which I cannot share; to procure benefits which I have not shared and probably will not share; but not to gratify my instincts, or to protect either myself or my country. “For,” the outsider will say, “in fact, as a woman, I have no country. As a woman I want no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.”-Ch. 3Regardless of the polemic, or because of it, even into the 21st Century Woolf‟s prodigious outputof diaries, letters, critical reviews, essays, short stories, and novels continue to be the source of much scholarly study. Adeline Virginia Stephen was born in London, England on 25 January 1882, daughter of Sir Leslie Stephen (1832-1904), literary critic and first editor of the Dictionary of National Biography. His first wife, daughter of William Makepeace Thackeray, Harriet Marion(b.1840) died in 1875. Virginia‟s mother was his second wife, Julia Prinsep Jackson Duckworth (1846-1895) who inspired the character Mrs. Ramsay in To The Lighthouse (1927).Virginia had two brothers, Thoby (1880-1906) and Adrian (1883-1948) who became a psychoanalyst. She was very close to her older sister Vanessa …Nessa‟ (1876-1961) who would become a painter and marry art critic Clive Bell. She also had four half-siblings; Laura Makepeace Stephen (1870-1945), and George (1868-1934), Gerald (1870-1937) [who would found Duckworth and Co. Publishing] and Stella (1869-1897) Duckworth.A number of the Stephen relatives were friends of Scottish historian and author Thomas Carlyle. Many other successful Victorian authors of the time were regular visitors to their bustling home in Hyde Park including Henry James and George Eliot; Virginia would write an article about her for the Times Literary Supplement in 1919. “Middlemarch, the magnificent book which with all its imperfections is one of the few English novels for grown-up people.” (“George Eliot”). Their works and many others‟ including Charles Dickens‟s and Thackeray‟s were part of her home education. Her father had a massive library so she and her sister were not without material although Virginia would soon reject the values and morals of their generation.The Stephens summered at …Talland House‟ in St. Ives, County Co rnwall in the southwest of England along the rocky shores of the Atlantic Ocean. Virginia had vivid and fond memories of these times which often had an influence on her writing including visits to a nearby lighthouse. However they ended when her mother died; she was just thirteen years old and suffered the first major breakdown of many that would plague her off and on the rest of her life. The death of Stella, who had become like a mother to Virginia and the death of her father caused another period of profound depression. “The beauty of the world ... has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.” (A Room of One’s Own). Vanessa then moved her sister and brothers to another neighborhood in London, Bloomsbury. Virginia was feeling better and by 1905 was writing in earnest articles and essays, and became a book reviewer for the Times Literary Supplement. She also taught teaching English and History at Morley College in London.In 1906 Virginia, Vanessa and their brothers traveled to Europe, where Thoby contracted typhoid fever and died from in 1906. Back in England the Bloomsbury Group was flourishing, their home a meeting place for writers, scholars and artists including Clive Bell, artist and art critic, who Vanessa married 1907. They would not stay together for long. After his third proposal, Virginia finally married left-wing political journalist, author and editor Leonard Woolf (1880-1969) on 10 August 1912. They would have no children. In 1914 when World War I broke out they were livingin Richmond and Woolf was working on her first novel The Voyage Out《出航》(1915) a satirical coming-of-age story;As the streets that lead from the Strand to the Embankment are very narrow, it is better not to walk down them arm-in-arm. If you persis t, lawyers‟ clerks will have to make flying leaps into the mud; young lady typists will have to fidget behind you. In the streets of London where beauty goes unregarded, eccentricity must pay the penalty, and it is better not to be very tall, to wear a long blue cloak, or to beat the air with your left hand.-Ch. 1Leonard and Virginia would themselves get into the publishing business, together founding the Hogarth Press in 1917. Works by T. S. Eliot and Katherine Mansfield would be among their many publications including Virginia‟s. Night and Day《夜与日》(1919) was followed by her short story collection Monday or Tuesday (1921) and essays in The Common Reader (1925). Jacob’s Room 《雅各布的房间》(1922) was followed by Mrs. Dalloway《达洛维夫人》(1925) which inspired a film “The Hours” in 2002. To The Lighthouse《到灯塔去》(1927) was followed by Orlando: A Biography (1928);Different though the sexes are, they inter-mix. In every human being a vacillation from one sex to the other takes place, and often it is only the clothes that keep the male or female likeness, while underneath the sex is very opposite of what it is above…..Every secret of a writer‟s soul, every experience of his life, every quality of his mind is written large in his works.-Ch. 4One of her more popular novels, it was adapted to the screen in 1993. A roman à clef, Orlando‟s character is modeled after Vita Sackville West (1892-1962), friend and possible lover of Woolf; Princess Sasha based on her friend Vi olet Trefusis. Vita‟s husband Harold Nicolson also plays a part as Marmaduke. Their son Nigel referred to it as “the longest and most charming love letter in literature.” “I was in a queer mood, thinking myself very old: but now I am a woman again—as I alw ays am when I write.” (The Diary of Virginia Woolf, 31 May 1929.) The Waves (1931) is said to be Woolf‟s most experimental work. Flush: A Biography (1933) is told through the eyes of Elizabeth Barrett Browning‟s spaniel. The Second Common Reader (1933) her next collection of critical essays, was followed by The Years (1937) and Roger Fry: A Biography (1940).With the outbreak of WWII the Woolfs were living at their country retreat, …Monk‟s House‟ near the village of Rodmell in Lewes, Sussex, which is now preserved by the National Trust. In 1940 they received word that their London home had been destroyed. Fear of a German invasion loomed and Leonard‟s Jewish heritage provoked the couple to make a suicide pact if the possibility of falling into German hands arose. Leonard as usual was ever vigilant to the onset of the next major depressive episode in his wife; she would get migraine headaches and lay sleepless at night. However, he and her doctor, who had seen her the day before, would never intuit that her next one was to be her last. Her letters to friends had been written in shaky handwriting and though she was actively working on her manuscript for what was to be the last publication before herdeath, Between the Acts(1941) she did express much disdain for its worth and wanted to …scrap‟ it.The scullery maid....was cooling her cheeks by the lily pond. There had always been lilies there, self-sown from wind-dropped seed, floating red and white on the green plates of their leaves. Water, for hundreds of years, had silted down into the hollow, and lay there four or five feet deep over a black cushion of mud....fish swam—gold, splashed with white....poised in the blue patch made by the sky....It was in that deep centre, in that black heart, that the lady had drowned herself.Virginia Woolf died on 28 March 1941 when she drowned herself in the River Ouse near their home in Sussex, by putting rocks in her coat pockets. Her body was found later in April and she was then cremated, her ashes spread under two elms at Monks‟ House. She had left two similar suicide notes, one possibly written a few days earlier before an unsuccessful attempt. The one addressed to Leonard read in part;Dearest, I feel certain I am going mad again....And I shan‟t recover this time.....I am doing what seems the best thing to do....I can‟t fight any longer....Everything has gone from me but the certainty of your goodness. I can‟t go on spoiling your life any longer....I don‟t think two people could have been happier than we have been. V.After her death, Leonard set to the task of editing her vast collection of correspondence, journals, and unpublished works and also wrote an autobiography. He died in 1960. Posthumous publications include; The Death of the Moth and Other Essays (1942), A Haunted House and Other Short Stories (1944), and The Moment and Other Essays(1948). Virginia‟s nephew, the late Professor Quentin Bell (1910-1996) wrote the award winning Virginia Woolf: A biography (2 vols, London: Hogarth Press, 1972).Every season is likeable, and wet days and fine, red wine and white, company and solitude. Even sleep, that deplorable curtailment of the joy of life, can be full of dreams; and the most common actions—a walk, a talk, solitude in one‟s own orchard—can be enhanced and lit up by the association of the mind. Beauty is everywhere, and beauty is only two finger‟s-breadth from goodness. So, in the name of health and sanity, let us not dwell on the end of the journey. The Common Reader“Montaigne”-Ch. 6。

第八章二十世纪欧美文学汇总

第八章二十世纪欧美文学汇总

第八章二十世纪欧美文学第一节20世纪时代风貌20世纪是一个风云变幻的时代,文学现象纷纭复杂。

20世纪的历史特点,决定了文学具有独特的性质。

一、两次世界大战给20世纪西方文学带来了“原子弹冲击波”。

20世纪初,欧美主要资本主义国家先后走向垄断,它们之间争夺霸权的斗争,导致了两次世界大战的爆发,造成人类历史上两次空前的大劫难:第一次世界大战于1914年7月28日拉开序幕,8月4日全面开战,持续4年零3个月,席卷38个国家,波及当时世界人口的四分之三——15亿人。

战争期间,俄国于1917年发生十月社会主义革命,革命后,苏联退出战争。

第二次世界大战于1939年9月1日爆发,战争持续了六年零一天,1945年9月2日结束。

二次大战中,全世界军、民伤亡约在9千万以上,各参战国直接军费开支达11170亿美元(一万一千一百七十亿美元),战争造成的经济损失超过了4万亿美元。

两次大战的惨烈经历,对西方资本主义世界从文艺复兴以来三、四百年内建立起来的经济、政治、道德、伦理等价值体系和观念,造成巨大而影响深远的冲击,引起了意识形态和文学艺术的巨大变化。

现代主义文学适应普遍的毁灭感、失落感和苦闷、彷徨、迷惘的社会心态,得到长足的民展。

它们是新一代文人追求艺术创新的产物,也是战争期间咎后欧美主要资本主义世界人们表达特定心态的重要渠道。

例如意识流小说结构上、思维上的支离破碎,与两次大战带给世界的破碎感,象征主义的模糊意象表达与作者们无法看清生活真相、无法把握生活的心态,都有着必然的联系。

同时,现实主义文学适应时代的变化,以新的面貌、新的角度,描写和反映了动荡的时代和人们的生活。

二、20世纪全世界无产阶级和被压迫民族、被压迫人民争取独立、争取解放的斗争风起云涌,给文学带来新的声音和新的形象。

苏联十月社会主义革命后,世界进入了无产阶级革命的时代,20世纪世界文坛上出现了一大批反映无产阶级斗争和社会改革目标的文学作品。

这一类文学体现了无产阶级的党性原则,是世界文学中的新事物。

3、代表作家作品: (1)米歇尔· 布托尔 (1926— ) Michel· Butor :“我非常 清楚我是上个世纪的人,但我希望自己还是一个年轻的诗人。” 代表作:《米兰巷》、《日程表》、《变》和《度》。 《变》写的是一位45岁的名叫莱翁· 德尔蒙的乘客搭乘火车从 巴黎前往罗马,在列车上思考自己的人生与选择。他是一家公 司的经理,是个事业成功的男子,但和脾气暴躁的妻子、4个 跟他很陌生的孩子生活在一起,他感到窒息。他每个月去罗马 的时候都会想他的情妇,一个漂亮的罗马女子西西。他终于下 定了决心想把她接到巴黎来,公开和她生活在一起。但坐在第 三等车厢里的劳顿,以及对许多次和妻子或者情妇的旅行回忆 慢慢又使他改变了主意,所以书名叫做“变”。 作者成功地在一节车厢、在20个小时的行程中把一个人动 荡的一生写了出来,而且是首次使用第二人称叙述,使读者成 为书中主角,还通过通篇的“你”毫不留情地把主人公诡秘行 踪、邪恶念头、意乱情迷、难言之隐都赤裸裸地表露出来。 另一部获奖作品《日程表》中穿插有爱情故事、侦探案件、异 国情调、历史考古、象征意味和隐喻暗示而被批评家视为“一

第三战场:妇女被金钱轰走。

表现为太太们情场失意,小姐们婚姻不幸这两个方面。

代表作《弃妇》、《苏城舞会》。

巴尔扎克的阶级同情,是在注定要灭亡的贵族一边的,然而他同情的泪水挡不住他现实主义的目光,他不得不违背自己的阶级同情和政治偏爱,如泣如诉地描绘了他心爱的贵族阶级的必然没落而不配有更好的命运。

正如恩格斯所说:“他的作品是对上流社会必然崩溃的一曲无尽的挽歌。


《幽谷百合》、《朗热公爵夫人》
资产者发迹
在《人间喜剧》中,巴尔扎克成功地塑造出一系列取代贵族而入主社会的资产者形象,大致由三类人构成:
1.具有资本原始积累时期特点的老一代资产者形象。

代表人物《高利贷者》中高布赛克。

剥削方式单一,经营手段落后;生活方式陈旧,极端吝啬,这是资本主义早期剥削者的特点。

2.具有过渡时期,即自由竞争时期特点的资产者形象。

代表人物《欧耶妮·葛朗台》中的老葛朗台。

剥削方式具有多样性,经营手段带有投机性;生活方式仍带有早期资产者极度吝啬的特点。

3.具有垄断时期金融寡头特征的新一代资产者形象。

代表人物《纽沁根银行》中的纽沁根。

剥削方式带有更大的冒险性和欺骗性,经营手段超越经营范围,向政权渗透;生活方式现代化,纸醉金迷,穷奢极欲。

他展示了经济命脉的掌管者同国家政权的掌管者开始勾结的垄断资本已初露端倪。

《人间喜剧》通过老一代的高布赛克、过渡时期的葛朗台和青春期的纽沁根这三代人追逐金钱的经营史,再现了资本主义剥削方式的演进史,这也是资本主义由崛起到成熟,到统治全世界的发迹史。

《老姑娘》、《公务员》、《阿尔西的议员》、《夏娃的女儿》
金钱罪恶
1.毁灭人性、败坏良心。

金钱调动起全社会所有成员的卑劣情欲,人人都毫无例外地追逐金钱,它把一切统统淹没在利己主义的冰水之中,导致良心萎缩、野心滋长、道德堕落、人欲横流。

代表作《高老头》、《贝姨》。

2.毁灭爱情、败坏家庭。

金钱成为夫妻结缘的唯一纽带。

爱情、婚姻、家庭都是以金钱为轴心而展开的,金钱导演出一幕幕悲剧、喜剧、丑剧和闹剧。

代表作《欧也妮·葛朗台》、《夏倍上校》。

3.毁灭社会、败坏国家。

金钱犹如无孔不入的黄色魔鬼渗入到全社会的各个角落,收买了当权者的人心,使大人物堕落为"衣冠禽兽"。

金钱毒染了整个上层建筑包括文学、艺术的神圣殿堂。

金钱成为国家政治权利的杠杆,无所不能的真正的主宰。

代表作《幻灭》、《交际花盛衰记》。

《搅水女人》、《烟花女荣枯记》、《泽·马尔卡斯》、《于絮尔·弥罗埃》。
