15、anticists,“the Satanic school”,撒旦派,with,Byron,拜伦,Shelly,雪莱,and Keats,济慈,as representatives,湖畔派,Lake Poets,18,19,世纪的英国浪漫主义诗歌流派。主要成员有华兹华斯、柯尔律治和骚塞。由于他们三人曾一同隐居于英国西北部的昆布兰湖区,先后在格拉斯米尔和文德美尔两个湖畔居住,以诗赞美湖光山色,所以有“湖畔派诗人”之称。在诗歌题材上,他们主张写下层人民的日常生活,强调诗人的内心探索和感情的自然流露;在诗体方面,主张发展民间诗歌的艺术传统,采用民间口语,发挥诗人的想象力。他们的理论和实践结束了英国古
16、典主义诗学的统治,对英国诗歌的改革和发展起了很大作用。但是他们否定诗歌的社会作用,美化中世纪的田园生活,提倡唯心主义、唯灵主义、神秘主义;把“听天由命”看成是人的“天性的永恒部分”;拜伦和雪莱对此进行过激烈的批评。,湖畔派诗人起初都同情法国革命,随着革命的深入,由害怕革命而退却,进而逃避现实,迷恋过去,美化中世纪的宗法制,幻想从古老的封建社会中去寻找精神的安慰与寄托。当湖畔派诗人的消极倾向日益明显的时候,青年诗人拜伦、雪莱开始登上文坛,向湖畔派诗人展开论争。拜伦在一八,O,九年完成的讽刺长诗,英格兰诗人和苏格兰评论家,中,不仅回答了消极浪漫主义者操纵的刊物,爱丁堡评论,对拜伦诗作的攻击,而且还
17、严厉地谴责了湖畔派诗人的消极倾向。由于他们敢于向湖畔派诗人作斗争,因而被英国绅土们斥之为撒旦,(,恶魔,),,所以文学史上称拜伦、雪莱和济慈为,“,撒旦派,”,。,一般说,湖畔派诗人代表消极浪漫主义倾向,撒旦派代表积极浪漫主义精神。虽然湖畔派诗人在与古典主义的斗争中有过贡献,在诗歌的艺术上有较深的造诣,但其历史地位远不及撒旦派重要。,Lake poets,Wordsworth,Coleridge and Southey,were known as Lake Poets because they lived and knew one another in the last few years o

29、then my heart with pleasure fills,于是我的心便涨满幸福,,And dances with the daffodils.,和水仙一同翩翩起舞。,1.4,“I wondered Lonely as a Cloud”,我好似一朵孤独的流云,,高高地飘游在山谷之上,,突然我看到一大片鲜花,,是金色的水仙遍地开放。,它们开在湖畔,开在树下,它们随风嬉舞,随风飘荡,它们密集如银河的星星,,像群星在闪烁一片晶莹;,它们沿着海湾向前伸展,,通往远方仿佛无穷无尽;,一眼看去就有千朵万朵,,万花摇首舞得多么高兴。,粼粼湖波也在近旁欢跳,,却不如这水仙舞得轻俏;,诗人遇见这快乐的旅
30、伴,又怎能不感到欢欣雀跃;,我久久凝视,-,却未领悟,这景象所给予我的精神至宝。,后来多少次我郁郁独卧,,感到百无聊赖心灵空漠;,这景象便在脑海中闪现,,多少次安慰过我的寂寞,我的心又随水仙跳起舞来,,我的心又重新充满了欢乐。,我好似一朵流云独自漫游,赏析,我好似一朵流云独自漫游,是华兹华斯抒情诗的代表作之一,写于,1804,年。据说此诗是根据诗人兄妹俩一起外出游玩时深深地被大自然的妩媚所吸引这一经历写成的,体现了诗人关于诗歌应描写“平静中回忆起来的情感”(,emotion recollected in tranquility,)这一诗学主张。全诗可以分成两大部分:写景和抒情。诗的开篇以第一人
31、称叙述,格调显得低沉忧郁。诗人一方面竭力捕捉回忆的渺茫信息,另一方面又觉得独自飘游,可以自由自在地欣赏大自然所赋予的美景。他把自己比作一朵流云,随意飘荡,富有想象的诗句暗示诗人有一种排遣孤独、向往自由的心情。,在他的回忆中,水仙花缤纷茂密,如繁星点点在微风中轻盈飘舞。诗中的“舞”意象鲜明,几乎贯穿了整个诗篇:第一节出现了水仙花翩翩起舞的情景;第二节写出了水仙花的繁多;第三节中粼粼波光与水仙齐舞,交相辉映,共同绘制成一幅赏心悦目的情景。诗人力图在一种迷离、恍惚和模糊的瞬间感受中去领悟人生的真谛。记忆中那一望无际的、连绵不断的金黄色水仙花在湖边迎风舞蹈的姿态仿佛有一种精神力量令人振奋,给他孤独的心
32、灵带来了欢乐,:“水仙花在我的心灵闪现,使我在幽独中感到欣然”。在诗人的笔下,大自然的美景具有治愈人们心灵创伤的能力。华兹华斯正是凭着这样一种艺术的直觉,将自然美与人类之间的联系揭示得淋漓尽致。,Analysis of“I wondered Lonely as a Cloud”,:,A.,the first and the second stanza-a vivid picture of a host of golden daffodils dancing happily in the breeze,B.,the third stanza-the happiness brought to th
