文艺复兴时期
威廉·莎士比亚William Shakespeare(1564-1616)
As the spokesman of English Renaissance, William Shakespeare is one of the most remarkable playwrights and poets the world has ever known. With his 38 plays, 154 sonnets and 2 long poems, he has established his giant position in world literature. Hamlet, the summit of Shakespeare’s art, is the profoundest expression of his humanism and his criticism of contemporary life.
弗朗西斯·培根Francis Bacon(1561-1626)
As a representative of the Renaissance in England, Bacon was the founder of modern science of England and the first English essayist. His essays cover a wide variety of subjects. They have won popularity for their precision, clearness, brevity and force. Of Studies is the most popular of Bacon’s 58 essays. Forceful and persuasive, compact and precise, Of Studies reveals to us Bacon’s mature attitude towards learning.
埃德蒙·斯宾塞Edmund Spencer(1552-1599)
Spencer was recognized as the “Poet’s poet” by his contemporaries and had great influence on a number of great English poets in the later centuries. His greatest work, The Faerie Queene, was written
in Spenserian stanza, which was a popular verse form invented by him. The principle intention is to present through a “historical poem” the example of a perfect gentleman.
浪漫主义时期
威廉·布莱克William Blake(1758-1827)
Blake is regarded as a Pre-Romantic or a forerunner of the Romantic poetry of the 19th century, who proclaimed the supremacy of the imagination over the rationalism and materialism. In his masterpiece Songs of Innocence and Songs of Experience, the world is seen from a child’s point of view, but the poems also function as parables of adult experience.
威廉·华兹华斯William Wordsworth (1770-1850)
William Wordsworth was the leading figure of the English romantic poetry. His poems are mainly about the beauty of nature and its relationship with all human beings. His best-known work Lyrical Ballads marked the beginning of the Romantic revival in England. Its preface served as the manifesto of the English Romantic movement in poetry. He, together with Coleridge and Southey, has often been mentioned as the “Lake Poets”.
拉尔夫·瓦尔多·爱默生Ralph Waldo Emerson（1803-1882）Emerson was the chief spokesman of New England Transcendentalism, which is unanimously agreed to be the summit of the romantic period in the history of American literature. He greatly influenced religion and philosophy, especially with his idea of Transcendentalism, which said that God’s nature was in every person and thing. Emerson’s essay Nature explains Transcendentalism as the unity of nature.
现实主义
查尔斯·狄更斯Charles Dickens(1812-1870)
Dickens was one of the greatest critical realist writers of the Victorian Age. The greatness of Dickens is that he had the ability to sustain interest through all kinds of literary devices. He is a great humorist and satirist and his novels are characterized by a mingling of humor and pathos. His masterpiece Great Expectations is a satire upon the society and those people who dream to enter the higher society.
马克·吐温Mark Twain(1835-1910)
Mark Twain is the leading US humorous writer of the 19th century, who is considered the father of American literature. In his books Twain shaped the world’s view of America and made an extensive combination of American folk humor and serious literature. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is Twain’s most representative work, describing a journey down the Mississippi undertaken by Huck and Jim.
亨利·詹姆斯Henry James(1843-1916)
Henry James was the forerunner of the “stream of consciousness”literature. A recurring theme in his fiction is the conflict between the European and American world views. The Portrait of A Lady is generally considered to be his masterpiece, which incarnates the clash between the Old World and the New in the life journey of an American girl in a European cultural environment.
自然主义
托马斯·哈代Tomas Hardy(1840-1928)
Tomas Hardy was an outstanding novelist as well as a poet. His best local-colored works, known as “novels of character and environment”, are the most representative of him as both a naturalistic and a critical realist writer. Tess of D’Urbervilles is
Hardy’s most well known novel, which portraits the tragic lot of a poor country girl ruined by the bourgeois society.
西奥多·德莱塞Theodore Dreiser(1871-1945)
Dreiser was one of the most significant American writers of naturalism. His works are often about poor people with unhappy lives. He was opposed to the idea of the American dream of success. In Sister Carrie Dreiser expressed his naturalistic pursuit by expounding the purposelessness of life and attacking the conventional moral standards.
斯蒂芬·克莱恩Stephen Crane（1871～1900）
Crane was a pioneer writing in the naturalistic tradition and also a pioneer in the field of modern poetry. Crane’s fictional world is a naturalistic one in which man is deprived of free will and expects no help from any quarter whatever. Maggie: A Girl of the Streets relates the story of a good woman’s downfall and destruction in a slum environment.
现代主义
T．S．爱略特T. S. Eliot (1888-1965)
T. S. Eliot was a leader of the modernist movement in English poetry and a great innovator of verse technique, who was awarded the British Order of Merit and the Nobel Prize for literature in 1948. His masterpiece The Waste land is a poem which is regarded as being primarily a reflection of the 20th-century people’s disillusionment and frustration in a sterile and futile society.
D. H.劳伦斯D. H. Lawrence（1885-1930）
D. H. Lawrence was one of the literary giants of the modern period. The major theme of all his writings is human relationships in the modern world where natural harmony has been destroyed by industry and modernization. In the autobiographical novel Sons and Lovers, the detailed description of the human relationships shows the influence of Freud’s theory of psychoanalysis, especially that of the “Oedipus complex.”
詹姆斯·乔伊斯James Joyce(1882-1941)
James Joyce was regarded as the most prominent stream-of-consciousness novelist, concentrating on revealing in his novels the psychic being of the characters. His masterpiece Ulysses presents a realistic picture of the modern wasteland, which modern
men are searching in vain for harmonious human relationships and spiritual sustenance in a decaying world.
后现代主义
塞缪尔·贝克特Samuel Beckett(1906-1989)
Samuel Beckett was an Irish playwright, novelist, poet and winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature. His plays are concerned with human suffering and survival, and his characters are struggling with meaninglessness and the world of the Nothing. His famous two-act play Waiting for Godot is regarded as an important and symbolic play of the futility and nothingness of human life, a pessimistic attitude towards life.
约瑟夫·海勒Joseph Heller(1923-1999)
Heller was an American satirical novelist and playwright. In his books he used an absurd linguistic surface to reflect the depth of the absurdity of the modern world. He wrote the influential novel Catch-22 about American servicemen during World War II. It was this work whose title became the term commonly used to express absurdity in choice.
约翰·福尔斯John Fowles(1926- )
John Fowles is regarded as one of the greatest postmodernist novelists in literary world. He is a master of layered story-telling, illusionism, and purposefully ambiguous endings. His best-known novels are The French Lieutenant’s Woman, The Collector, and The Magu. His protagonists must often confront their past, self-delusions and illusions, in order to gain their personal freedom or peace of mind.

英美文学流派整理
英美文学 玄学派：是指17世纪英国文坛出现的一个独特的诗歌流派。英国诗人约翰·邓恩是这个流派的代表人物，他因在诗歌中精妙地运用“奇喻”的比喻手法而蜚声文坛。它们往往以精致典雅的形式表现情感与观念的矛盾，把古典主义的性情与浪漫主义的风骨很好地融合到了一起。骑士文学盛行于西欧，反映了骑士阶层的生活理想。骑士精神和道德是上层社会的贵族文化精神，它是以个人身份的优越感为基础的道德与人格精神，但它也积淀这西欧民族远古尚武精神的某些积极因素。 三联剧：在古希腊悲剧创作中，有一类悲剧均由三部分组成，每部分即能独立存在，各部之间又有紧密联系。这种剧合则为一，分则为三，代表作家为埃斯库罗斯。 文艺复兴：是指13世纪末在意大利各城市兴起，以后扩展到西欧各国，于16世纪在欧洲盛行的一场思想文化运动，带来一段科学与艺术革命时期，揭开了近代欧洲历史的序幕，被认为是中古时代和近代的分界。 人文主义：是文艺复兴核心思想，是新兴资产阶级反封建的社会思潮，也是资产阶级人道主义的最初形式。它肯定人性和人的价值，要求享受人世的欢乐，要求人的个性解放和自由平等，推崇人的感性经验和理性思维。 七星诗社：是16世纪中期法国的一个文学团体，是由七位人文主义诗人组成的文学团体。他们中以龙沙和杜贝莱最著名。七星诗社的诗人们从事过各种创作，他们的诗声望很高，但他们的主要贡献却是对于法语改革的主张。 狂飙突进运动：是18世纪德国文学界的运动，是文艺形式从古典主义向浪漫主义过渡时的阶段，也可以说是幼稚时期的浪漫主义。但其中心代表人物是歌德和席勒，歌德的《少年维特的烦恼》是其典型代表作品，表达的是人类内心感情的冲突和奋进精神。 伤感主义：１８世纪后期欧洲资产阶级启蒙运动中的一种文艺思潮，也称为“主情主义”。该派的得名，源与英国作家斯特恩的小说《在法国和意大利的感伤的旅行》。该派作家崇尚感情，把感情看的高于“理性”，因而强调文学的主要任务是细致刻画任务的心理动态和描写人物的不幸遭遇，以便唤起读者在感情上的同情和共鸣，表达出对当时贵族阶级的理性主义和古典主义的反抗。伤感主义把个人主义和主观幻想的因素带进文艺，代表作家有英国的斯特恩，理查逊，法国的卢梭（如《忏悔录》《遐想录》），伏尔泰，德国的歌德，里希特，海涅等等。 “梅塘集团”是十九世纪法国文坛由以左拉为核心的六位作家组成的文学创作团体。因在巴黎郊外左拉的梅塘别墅为主要活动场所而得名。一八七O年开始的普法战争，法国战败，被

Beowalf:the only organic whole poem to come out of the period. the first major English poem and the greatest work of literature of the period; the first long epic poem in Europe written in the vernacular language. (probably) the greatest epic left by the ancient Germanic tribes; The most ancient epic since the demise of the Greek and Roman literatures. Definition:A Ballad is a narrative poem that tells a story.(The Robin Hood Ballads) Chaucer:the founder of English poetry. Chaucer’s contribution to English poetry lies chiefly in the fact that he introduced from France the rhymed stanzas of various types, especially rhymed couplet of iambic pentametre to English poetry, instead of the old Anglo-Saxon alliterative verse. He is the first great poet who wrote in the current English language. His production of so much excellent poetry was an important factor in establishing English as the literary language of the country. The significance of the The Canterbury T ales:1.it gives a comprehensive picture of Chaucer’s time2.the dramatic structure of the poem has been highly commended by critics .stories are cleverly woven together by links between the stories .stories are related to the personalities of the tellers3.Chaucer’s humour .Chaucer “the smyler with the knyf under the cloke”4.Chaucer’s contribution to the English language .He wrote in the London dialect to prove that English language is a beautiful language and can be handled to express different moods .Thus increased the prestige of eh English language. T omas More:Utopia. Edmund Spencer:The Shepherds Calendar/The Fairy Queen. Christopher Marlowe:The most prominent of the university wits. (Tamburlaine the Great/The tragic history of doctor Faustus) Francis Bacon:founder of English materialist philosophy. (Conciseness、Brevity、clearness、precision、Forcefulness) John Donne:the founder of the Metaphysical school of poetry.(The Flea).

英美文学作家作品集合
杰弗里·乔叟（Geoffrey Chaucer，1340年—1400年），英国中世纪著名作家，出生于一个酒商家庭。1359年随爱德华三世的部队远征法国，被法军俘虏，不久以黄金赎回。乔叟当过国王侍从，出使许多欧洲国家，两度访问意大利，发现了但丁、薄伽丘和彼特拉克的作品，对他的文学创作起了极大的作用。代表作：《坎特伯雷故事集》（The Canterbury Tales）其他作品《公爵夫人之书》(Book of the Duchess)、《声誉之宫》(The House of Fame)、《百鸟会议》(The Parliament of Fowles)、《贤妇传说》(The Legend of Good Women)以及《特洛伊罗斯与克丽西达》(Troilus and Criseyde)。乔叟于1400年10月25日在伦敦逝世，葬于威斯敏斯特教堂里的“诗人之角”。乔叟的死因不明，可能是被谋杀，英国的中世纪研究专家特里·琼斯曾出了一本书《谁谋杀了乔叟？》。 乔叟率先采用伦敦方言写作，并创作“英雄双行体”，对英国民族语言和文学的发展影响极大，故被誉为“英国诗歌之父”。 艾德蒙·斯宾塞（1552-1599）毕业于剑桥大学，著名英国诗人，尤以十四行诗著称。在不少英国批评家眼中，斯宾塞是英国历史上最伟大的诗人之一，与其齐名的，仅莎士比亚、弥尔顿、华兹华斯等二三人而已。从一个外国读者的眼中来看，他的诗无疑是优美可诵的，例如他写的十四行诗，就不比莎士比亚逊色。可以爱情小唱（1595）第75首为例：有一天我把她的名字写在沙滩上，大浪冲来就把它洗掉。我把她的名字再一次写上，潮水又使我的辛苦成为徒劳。“妄想者，”她说，“何必空把心操，想叫一个必朽的人成为不朽！我知道我将腐烂如秋草，我的名字也将化为乌有。” “不会，”我说，“让卑劣者费尽计谋而仍归一死，你却会声名长存，因为我的诗笔会使你的品德永留，还会在天上书写你的荣名。[b]死亡虽能把全世界征服我们的爱却使生命不枯。”[/b] 其诗主要以优美清新而著称，如那句一再咏唱的sweet thames! run softly till i end my song!(甜美的河，轻轻流到歌罢)，除此之外，斯宾塞还有长篇名著，如《仙后》《牧童的日历》等 马洛(1564～1593) Marlowe，Christopher 英国诗人，剧作家。1564年3月6日生于坎特伯雷一富有鞋匠之家，1593年5月30日卒于伦敦附近的德特福德。1587年在剑桥大学获硕士学位。在伦敦期间曾与探险家、政治活动家罗利，剧作家查普曼，数学家哈里奥特等怀疑宗教者结成团体，人称黑夜派和无神论者。曾一度入狱。后被人刺死。马洛共写了7 部剧本，均属悲剧或带有悲剧意味的历史剧：《帖木儿》、《浮士德博士的悲剧》、《马耳他的犹太人》、《爱德华二世》、《迦太基女王狄多》和《巴黎的大屠杀》。后两剧可能是与剧作家纳什合作，时间不能确定。马洛革新了中世纪的戏剧，在舞台上创造了反映时代精神的巨人性格和``雄伟的诗行''，为莎士比亚的创作铺平了道路。 弗兰西斯培根（1561——1626）是一位英国文艺复兴的代表人物，他是杰出的哲学家，科学家及散文家。他通过持之以恒地用科学方法思考及依靠观察而非权威学说获取知识的态度成为现代科学的奠基人。他的《培根散文集》是英国文学中这一流派的典范，并被誉为英语散文发展的重要里程碑。他所运用的一些新鲜词汇还进入了英国文学传统。 "Of Studies"主要内容： 《论读书》<
