3. 名词解释
1.Epic poetry
a long, narrative poem written in an elevated style which celebrates the deeds of a legendary hero or god.
Epic hero: super human hero.
2.Satire
Satire is primarily a literary genre体裁 or form.
In satire, vices不道德行为 , follies愚蠢 , abuses不正之风 , and shortcomings are held up to ridicule嘲笑戏弄, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, and society itself, into improvement. Although satire is usually meant to be funny, its greater purpose is often constructive social criticism, using wit才智 as a weapon.
A common feature of satire is strong irony or sarcasm—"in satire, irony is militant好战的”. This "militant" irony or sarcasm often professes to approve of (or at least accept as natural) the very things the satirist wishes to attack.
3.Sonnet
Poem of 14 lines, usually in iambic pentameter, restricted to a definite rhyme scheme.
There are two prominent types: the Italian, or Petrarchan, sonnet, composed of an octave and a sestet (rhyming abbaabba cdecde), and the Elizabethan, or Shakespearean, sonnet, consisting of three quatrains and a couplet (rhyming abab cdcd efef gg).
4. Renaissance
in essence, is a historical period in which the European humanist thinkers and scholars made attempts to get rid of those old feudalist ideas in medieval Europe and introduce new ideas that expressed the interests of the rising bourgeoisie, and to lift the restriction in all areas placed by the Roman Catholic authorities.
5、Novel
Broadly speaking, the term novel, apparently derived from Italian Novella, which means “tale or piece of news”, is now applied to any prose work of some length, which tells a story, attempts rounded characterization, amuses, shocks and entertains the reader.
In a narrow sense, a novel is a realistic fiction, complete in itself and contains the essential elements of story, character, and setting.
6、Metaphysical poem
The name was given to a group of English lyric poets of the 17th cent. The term was first used by Samuel Johnson (1744).
The hallmark(标志) of their poetry is the metaphysical conceit (a figure of speech that employs unusual and paradoxical images), a reliance on intellectual wit, learned imagery, and subtle argument. Although this method was by no means new, these men infused new life into English poetry by the freshness and originality of their approach.
The most important metaphysical poets are John Donne, George Herbert, Henry Vaughan, Abraham Cowley, Richard Crashaw, and Andrew Marvell. Their workhas considerably influenced the poetry of the 20th cent.
7、Pride and prejudice
Character list:
Mr. Bennet, Mrs. Bennet
Jane, Charles Bingley
Mary, Kitty,
Elizabeth , Fitzwilliam Darcy
Lydia,George Wickham
Mr. Collins, Charlotte Lucas
Plot:
8、Heroic couplet(英雄偶句诗)
it is a traditional form for English poetry; it refers to poems constructed from a sequence of rhyming pairs of iambic pentameter(抑扬格五音步) lines.
O could I flow like thee, and make thy stream
My great example, as it is my theme
Though deep yet clear, though gentle yet not dull
Strong without rage, without o’er flowing full
9、Oliver twist
Plot:
Characters:
Bumble: the parish beadle
