中文简介:
这一主题通过研究与两个相互关联的思想有影响的文本来追溯欧洲小说的历史。(1)严肃小说处理重大事件时,不应处理重大人物的行为,如国王、王子、高级官员等,而应处理明显普通人的生活以及他们的社会野心和欲望的日常细节。用巴尔扎克的一句话来说,严肃的小说涉及到世界各地发生的事情。(2)这种观点有时与另一种观点相一致:人类状况的最重要表现是那些试图强迫社会接受他们作为其注定的代理人的人,尽管他们没有高出生或继承权。
课程简介: This subject traces the history of the European novel by studying texts that have been influential in connection with two interrelated ideas. (1) When serious fiction deals with matters of great consequence, it should not deal with the actions of persons of consequence—kings, princes, high elected officials and the like—but rather with the lives of apparently ordinary people and the everyday details of their social ambitions and desires. To use a phrase of Balzac's, serious fiction deals with "what happens everywhere״. (2) This idea sometimes goes with another: that the most significant representations of the human condition are those dealing with persons who try to compel society to accept them as its destined agent, despite their absence of high birth or inheritance.
关 键 词: 欧洲文学; 现实主义; 浪漫主义; 自然主义; 社会
