英国文学作品 A Modest Proposal.读后感

I could not believe how graphic and gripping satire can be until I read Jonathan Swift's works, especially A Modest Proposal. When I read this particular satire I was simultaneously shocked, enraged, and sickened. How could such a short piece of fiction affect a person so drastically? I suppose it has much to do with Swift's skillful use of metaphor and irony. The underlining metaphor of Swift's A Modest Proposal is England as a devourer of the Irish people. At this time, England was economically exploiting Ireland for its own profit and in the process, impoverishing the Irish people and condemning them to a despairing existence.

Jonathan Swift uses this disturbing metaphor to shock his readers and to show them the true brutality of the condition of Ireland because of England and indirectly because of the Irish people themselves. However, Swift carefully crafted A Modest Proposal with its savage irony and horrific metaphors to strike the sleeping world in the face and make all see this sickening state of Ireland.

It is quite obvious that he did not intend that his solution be taken literally (He, among other things, is satirizing the fact that the deplorable conditions make it his erroneous proposal seem somewhat plausible; this was intended as a catalyst for change as people would realize how far things had fallen). I simply have to lead a half hour discussion tomorrow and any help would be appreciated. To give you an idea of the depth I am looking for, I will give you a question that I have come up with:

- Swift wrote this essay with a clear purpose and skill. However, it was not well received, and as a general rule his true intent was overlooked. Keeping this in mind, is the burden placed on the author to create a piece that clearly conveys his point, or is it on the reader to properly understand it. Considering your conclusions to this question, was Swift's essay a model piece of literature? I'm looking for open ended, time consuming question.

In the end, Jonathan Swift "proposes" in A Modest Proposal that poor Irish babies be used as a food source because it could be profitable to both the English and the Irish. On one hand, the English would profit from the growing market of this new "delicacy." The poor of Ireland, though, could rid themselves of the unwanted children that they cannot afford to feed and get paid handsomely for "breeding." Ultimately, Swift uses this revolting proposal to condemn both the English for taking such advantage of the poor people of

Ireland and the Irish for not doing anything to lessen their plight or to rid their country of English dominion. But above all else, Jonathan Swift did not want any of his readers to ever forget the cruelty the Irish poor faced every day under the ravenous hand of England so the world would do something to rid Ireland and the rest of the earth of this immoral and ghastly treatment.

世界文学名著读后感_心得体会

世界文学名著读后感 本文是关于心得体会的世界文学名著读后感,感谢您的阅读! 篇一:呼啸山庄读后感 《呼啸山庄》是一部完全不同于当时流行的作品,他没有经过城市的熏陶和浸染,是完全用山乡荒原的自然协调绘成的。故事的背景是一片狂风呼啸的山原,故事的人物保留着大自然的风貌和原始的本性:质朴,粗纩,刚强,感情奔放不羁,举止疯狂无度,不过一切地爱,又不计后果的恨,这在温文尔雅的慊慊君子看来,自然显得野蛮而奇特。 在维多利亚时代,贵族富豪踌躇满志,身份第一,金钱至上,人们的精神受到压制,人性被残酷的扭曲,于是具有强烈的反派意识,和自由思想的艾米莉,便通过作品,对罪恶现象给予揭露,把自己的正义,激情,愤怒溶入作品。最终,希思克利夫的爱毕竟还是战胜了自己的恨,当他的复仇计划一一实现时,他并没有胜利的喜悦,还是在茫茫草原上漫游,最终安然死去,这样一个饱受苦难与屈辱的人物,对爱情至死不渝的渴求和命运不屈不挠的抗争,让人读来一阵苍凉与悲壮。 篇二:匆匆读后感 古人曾说过“一寸光阴,一寸金,寸金难买寸光阴”,长歌行一诗中也提到“少壮不努力,老大徒伤悲”。每当我听到这珍惜时间的句子时,我就想起了朱子清的散文《匆匆》。 这篇文章讲的是时间一去不复返,不要虚度光阴。从中我体会到时间就是金钱,联想到了自己已度过了四千六百多个日日夜夜,而这四千六百多个日日夜夜我却干了些什么呢?只有徘徊罢了,只有匆匆罢了。在四千多日的匆匆里,除徘徊外又剩些什么呢? 我曾听说过这样一个笑话:一个公司人员向老板请假,公司老板对他说,一年365天,52个双休日,减去这104天,还剩261天,你每天还有16个小时不在工作岗位上,减去这170天,还剩91天,你每天用30分钟喝咖啡,用掉23天,还剩68天,你每天吃饭用1小时,用去46天,还剩22天,你通常每年向公司请2天病假,只剩20天,每年有5个节假日,公司不上班,减去这5天,还剩下15天,公司每年慷慨地向你放14天假,这样算下来,你工作时间只剩1

文学作品读后感700字品味书香,诵读经典 文学作品读后感700字品味书香,诵读经典 ——读《手斧男孩》有感 《手斧男孩》一书是世界文坛大师、美国著名作家盖瑞·伯森的经典巨作。 “1把手斧,1个13岁少年,夺命丛林惊险生存54天,换做是你,能做到吗?” 这是《手斧男孩》书开头的一句强烈的反问句。的确,如果我们任何一个人突然被丢到了荒无人烟的丛林中,是不可能生存那么多天的,但坚强的布莱恩·罗伯逊,这个十三岁小男孩可以。 《手斧男孩》一书讲述了一个名叫布莱恩·罗伯逊的小男孩,因为他父母离婚了,他天天在悲伤中度过。法官说,只有暑假,他才能和爸爸一起生活。在被允许使用“探亲权”的第一个夏天,他乘坐塞斯纳406丛林机去加拿大探望爸爸,可是途中飞行员心脏病突发而死,布莱恩极为运气地把飞机“降落”到了湖里,他在运气的帮助下,仅凭一把手斧,生火、打猎、造屋,凭着他惊人的毅力和超强的智慧独自一人走过了两个月的风风雨雨,他并没有依靠任何人,这两个月的时光,就如同一次超常时间的魔鬼训练,把他所有自立生活潜能都激发出来,布莱恩·罗伯逊成为了一名真正的少年。 我读了这本书,不禁思考:布莱恩为什么能活下来呢?因为

他有过人的勇气,临危不乱,充满信心。但如果我们遇到这种事情又会怎么样?会不会只是哭闹着喊救命,而在无人的困境中,哭闹屁用不顶。又如果野兽来了,又该怎么办?是否任凭它们靠近?而最可怕的没有食物,又该如何生存下去?又冷又饿又没有火,又该怎么办?这么多的问题,摆在我们这些吃肯德基、麦当劳长大的少年面前,能顺利解决问题并独立生存下来吗? 我们过惯了小皇帝、小公主的生活,自己不能独立生活。如果突然有一天我们碰上了这种事,自己面对恐惧、饥饿、危险,我们可能两天也活不了。而布莱恩十三岁就自己在森林里生活了五十四天!这真是一个奇迹!我们要学习布莱恩,学会独立生存,学会自立自强,学会在身处困境的情况下用智慧利用合适的工具去创造奇迹,就像布莱恩的手斧可以将他化险为夷。所以,当我们身处困境时,也需冷静思考,勇敢迎接,而不是选择逃避,因为即使没有手斧,但还拥有勇气!

英国文学赏析整理

Alexander Pope An Essay on Man (know then thyself) The poem is written in iambic tetrameter, every two line have the same thyme at the last word. The poem is important in the sense that it embodies the 18th century concepts of the universe and man’s place in it, that is man is made in the shape of God, and occupies a middle position in the Great Chain of Being. As the poet says sometimes we have too much knowledge and feel suspect about everything, but sometimes we have too much weakness and can not be as pride as Stotic, sometimes we seem to have the power to rule all things but sometimes we seem prey to all. We are in the middle place and sometimes we are confused about whether to act or rest. The poet perfectly describes man’s feeling about ourselves and about the world. Although Pope is never profound in thought but he is very adapt in voicing the idea of his contemporaries in a beautiful and clever way. Robert Burns A Red, Red, Rose The metrical pattern of the poem is basically in the ballad form, i.e. each stanza consisting of four lines, with four stressed syllables in the odd-numbered lines and three stressed syllables in the even-numbered lines, and with rhymes occurring on the even-numbered lines. The image of rose evokes traditional associations of beauty, love and romance. Its simple lyrics and straight form and expression of feeling make it a favorite choice for poetry anthologies and a most appreciated poem for readers. Incorporating various elements from folk songs, the poem is supposed to be a song sung by an Irish sailor to his sweet heart before his ship sailed off to sea, the exaggerated declaration of love “till the
