Write My Own Life
Having studied the course British and American literature, I knew many great foreign writers, from William Shakespeare to Charles Dickens , from Walter Whitman to Ernest Hemingway. They are all shining stars, who have wrote masterpieces to express themselves and their opinions, of the literature history. Mr. Hu always said that his purpose is to inspire our interests in literature, but I think I have gained more. I wondered that I do need to write something about my feeling. Yes , I should. I am twenty years now, and it’s time for me to think deeper about my life , my dream, and my future.
Suppose that a person he himself is a pen, and his whole life is the paper, What would that someone write about his life ? Would he write about Love ? Or hate? Fun? Or misery? Dream? Or desperate? Life? Or death? Everything？Or nothing？…Would he write just a few tentative words? Or to create a masterpiece that would last forever and make a difference to others ? How to write your own life means how to live you lifetime. Thanks to those poems and books , they give me a lot of inspirations and I realized what kind of life I want and how to write my own “ masterpiece”.
Chapter1 :About Life
“To be, or not to be: that is the question
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
……”
The question of death disturbs Hamlet, as he repeatedly cont emplates whether or not suicide is a proper action in an painfu l world. Hamlet’s grief and misery is such that he frequently te nd to death to end his suffering, but he fears that if he commit s suicide, he will be consigned to eternal suffering in hell . The n at last Hamlet concludes that no one would like to endure th e pain of life if he or she were not afraid of what will come af ter death. I remember a famous writer once said that : Life i s like an onion, you peel it off one layer at a time, and someti mes you weep. Yes, there is enough good and bad in ever yone’s life –-sorrow and happiness, joy and pain—and yo u have the rights to choose laugh or cry. Optimistic is th e necessity of life. The way you look at your life will dete rmine how you feel, how to live your life and how well yo u get along with others. That’s what this poem taught me . Chapter 2: About Study
“Studies serve for delight, for ornament, and for ability. Their chief use for delight is in privateness and retiring; for ornament, is in dis course; and for ability, is in the judgment and disposition of busine ss. For expert men can execute, and perhaps judge of particulars, o ne by one;
…...”
As an old Chinese saying: knowledge is infinite. Francis Ba con also said ：knowledge is power. He told us that there are ef ficient ways to study and we should thinking at the same time. As Plato said: Thinking is the talking of the soul with itself. Most of us are going to be teachers in the future. Teachin g is a job at which one will never be perfect, there is alw ays something more to learn about it. That’s one of the p ersonal qualities which are desirable in a teacher. This es say taught me how to learn and how to be a good stude nt by learning, how to be a good teacher in the future by learning , and how to be a good learner forever.
Chapter:3 About Love
“If ever two were one,then surely we. If ever man were loved by wif e,then thee. If ever wife was happy in a man,compare with me,ye w omen if you can. Thy love is such...I can no way repay. The heaven s reward the manifold... I pray. Then while we live,in love let’s so p ersevere. That when we live no more,we may live ever.”
This is Anne Bradstreet’s To My Dear and Loving Husband. The author express her great love for her husband. She wished their love will be honored even after their death. Usually in the earlier writers, majority of poems ,describing the love, were wrote by men. So this poem became extraordinary occasion time that a woman proving the love to her husband. She challenges any woman who
may claim they too have the same kind of love. Love is a classical topic in poetry. As a girl, I also long for romantic pure love. Pure love is a magic that would eliminate mundane barriers like race, religion, class , education, age and so on . Sometimes, love is just a state of permanent infatuation which poverty, difficulties, and gaps cannot change or shake. I believe that my love is somewhere and always waiting for me. I believe I will own great love some day and get married with my Mr. Right and do as what Anne Bradstreet has wrote .
Chapter:4 About …..
……..
Chapter:5 …..
There will have countless chapters of life in the future . “The reading of all good books is like a conversation with the finest men of past centuries.”After learning all this poems and essays, I had a deeper understanding of this saying. Reading good books can light you life, can inspire your mind, can rich your knowledge, can perfect your personality. I gained a lot from the poems above and other works I have learned this semester. They lead me the road of life . To read more books in the future and to write my own life , I believe the colorful days are waiting for me !

毕业论文英美文学开题报告 导语：小说中自然有着独特的作用，它使人精神放松，包容所有人，它似乎是一个有血有肉的灵魂，以下小编为大家介绍毕业论文英美文学开题报告文章，欢迎大家阅读参考! 毕业论文英美文学开题报告1 (一)课题研究来源 在考研过程中遇到类型相关的题目，本人很感兴趣，于是确定选择该题。 (二)课题研究的目的 本文通过对《呼啸山庄》中象征主义，来叙述《呼啸山庄》中文明与自然的冲突。 (三)课题研究的意义 艾米莉·勃朗特是英国维多利亚时期着名小说家和作家，是着名的勃朗特姐妹之一，也是三姐妹中最具天赋的一个。她一生只写了一部小说《呼啸山庄》，但是这部伟大的作品却使她扬名于世。通过《呼啸山庄》，艾米莉·勃朗特以维多利亚时代为背景，通过写两个截然不同的家族，三代人之间的爱恨情仇，充分表现了维多利亚时期文明和自然之间的冲突以及怎样反映了艾米莉·勃朗特对自然的偏爱。小说中自然和文明冲突不断，艾米莉·勃朗特在小说中多次运用对比和象征来表现此冲突，例如，呼啸山庄和画眉山庄的冲突，凯瑟琳两种不同的爱情观的冲突。这种冲突正是基于艾米
莉·勃朗特对自然异于常人的热爱和当时现代文明盛行的背景。英国文学史上着名的三姐妹从小生活在荒原上，自然在她们心中是神圣之物，这点很像新英格兰超验主义的观点。并且英国浪漫主义时期沃兹沃斯和柯律利治等着名诗人影响，自然，情感和哥特式元素在艾米莉·勃朗特的作品中都发挥着举足轻重的作用。而且，艾米莉·勃朗特生活在物欲横流的维多利亚时代，当时的人们以自然之情为基础的生活受到现代文明的激烈冲击。作为维多利亚时代批判现实主义的代表人物，艾米莉·勃朗特看到了现代文明带来的种种罪恶，内心更加执着于对自然的喜爱。因此，要想真正读懂这部伟大的着作，就必须要了解小说中艾米莉·勃朗特对自然和文明的观点。只有了解艾米莉·勃朗特对自然和文明的态度，才能真正明白在这爱恨情仇下有着更深刻的寓意-人类生活应该顺应自然和本性。通过《呼啸山庄》中自然和文明的从图矛盾，由此来叙述《呼啸山庄》中回归自然的观点。 (一)国内研究现状 1.陈茂林从艾米莉·勃朗特所受的自然的影响来分析，他的《回归自然返璞归真--的生态批评》认为《呼啸山庄》是一部自然颂歌。小说中自然有着独特的作用，它使人精神放松，包容所有人，它似乎是一个有血有肉的灵魂，分享着人的痛苦和换了。作品表达了作者对自然的深深热爱，同时也反映了自然和文明的冲突和矛盾。叶利荣则在其《追寻

英美文学阅读与鉴赏 When you are old By William Butler Yeats
When you are old W hen you are old and grey and full of sleep. And nodding by the fire, take down this book. And slowly read, and dream of the soft look Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep. How many loved your moments of glad grace. And loved your beauty with love false or true. But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you. And loved the sorrows of your changing face; And bending down beside the glowing bars, Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled. And paced upon the mountains overhead And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

英美文学学习体会
英美文学学习体会 一、大学英语教学现状 新世纪外语人才培养的目标在于：(1)听、说、读、写、翻译语言基本功训练有素，特别是口头表达和写作能力应比较强。(2)中文基础好，能讲能写。(3)语言和文化知识比较系统，综合素质好。(4)有较好的哲学、逻辑学、伦理学、心理学、美学、语言学和文学的基本理论素养。[3]由此可见，外语教学中应当注重文学教育。但长期以来，国内大学英语课堂教学模式基本还是“以教师为中心”，注重“填鸭式”教育，学生只是被动地参与。对于应试教育带来的影响，大学英语教学往往偏重语言知识的传授，不够重视大学生文学素质的培养。以往，大学英语在教学上更多注重的是词汇、语法等语言技能的训练，而对于学生英语语言能力的考量也只是着眼于四、六级考试的成绩。这种教学方式不但忽略了作为文字载体的文学语言所能传导的人文讯息，而且更加肥沃了应试教育，相应地，创造了许多“高分低能”的大学生，这不利于大学生语言综合素质的提高，而文化素质的一个重要组成部分就是文学素养。如果大学英语教学文学而只重语言，单纯性的语言传授在大学英语教学中就变成了单调乏味的训练符号。也就是说，语言这个工具，应是在接受并理解内容的前提下相对牢固掌握的。 二、英美文学课程在大学英语教学中的重要性 让学生能够良好地掌握并灵活地运用英语，是大学英语教学的重要目标。而对于一门外语的学习过程，就是对于一种新的文化深入了解的过程。所谓灵活，除了书面表达能力以外，还有口头表达能力，这包含口头交际能力，而交际能力的提高除了需要对所学语言知识有着良好的掌握外，还需要对使用目标语言的国家文化背景有所了解。 目前，各高校中，大学英语的授课对象都是非英语专业的学生，而这些学生存在诸多特点，如：人数众多、专业多样，学科各异。自从我国加入了WTO，国家各个方面的对外交往与日俱增。这就迫切地需要：大学英语教学培养出大量的各行各业的国际化人才，而这些众多的非英语专业的学生在今后跨文化交际中所产生的作用不可小觑。虽然世界在不断地变小，但要融入其中，一个关键的问题就是首先要有能力与使用目的语的人进行交往，必须了解其文化背景和语言习惯，只有这样，才不会因为语言的问题而影响深入的沟通。 每个民族的文化都是璀璨而又独一无二的，正因为它是独特的，所以，从词汇的含义、价值观及文化习俗方面都存在着差异。如果在英语教学的过程中，只注重语言上传递的表层含义，而忽略了其文化背景方面的引申义，就会引起误会和矛盾。如：Mend the fence when the weather’s better.依照中国文化背景，我们会自然地认为句意是天气好时修理篱笆。实际上，从目的语的文化背景来理解句意却是：未雨绸

英美文学欣赏的心得体会
英美文学欣赏的心得体会 第一节课，老师就向我们介绍了古希腊的神话传说，还讲解了一些我们现在所常见的单词的远古意义，让我对西方的文化产生了敬慕之情。 老师为了详细的诠释西方的神话，播放了《诸神之怒》影片。该影片讲述了败北哈迪斯又卷土重来，联合了泰坦之王克洛诺斯，希望能够活捉宙斯。而珀修斯，这位宙斯半神之子借助安德洛墨达女王，“海神”之子阿基纳和“火神”赫菲斯托斯的帮助，深入深渊营救宙斯，战胜泰坦，同时拯救了人类。此电影让我领悟到西方神化的美妙。 另一部唯美的爱情影片是由莎士比亚的《sonnet 18》为索引方向，《Shakespeare in love》影片诠释了莎士比亚的《sonnet 18》所写的主人公是维奥娜。通过此部影片也展示了欧洲文艺复兴时期的英国气息——女人是不能上台表演的！而且，我也深深地爱上了此首荡气回肠的爱情诗。 接着我们观看了电影史上三大凄美不朽爱情影片之一的《魂断蓝桥》，是一部荡气回肠的爱情经典之作。一首中文版的歌曲《友谊地久天长》，英文名称为《Auld Lang Syne》应用在此片中。主人公罗依邀请玛拉共进晚餐，来到了烛光俱乐部，大厅内罗依向玛拉倾吐爱意，在《Auld Lang Syne》的华尔兹舞曲中两人偏偏起舞。随着每一声部的演奏完毕，蜡烛一只只熄灭，曲终，大厅沉浸在一片黑暗中，两人含情相望，拥抱长吻。 约翰·邓恩的《跳蚤》淋漓尽致地发挥了作为一个诗人的奇思妙想，跳蚤是一个多么令人感到恶心的东西，而他奇妙在将其作为表白的最佳选择：接受我的爱，你的名誉不会有丝毫损失，就象跳蚤之死不会让你的生命有所损失！ 另一部，我想该是大家众所周知的了吧，《傲慢与偏见》——英国作家简·奥斯汀的代表作。故事里成就了几对夫妻，如伊丽莎白与达西，姐姐洁英与彬格莱先生等。但是故事刚开始并不是那么的完美，影片里的人物表演精彩到位，脸部细微的表情都能牵动观众的心。第一节里出席舞会的达西，他对班纳特太太的粗俗嗤之以鼻，怠慢了她的女儿们。伊丽莎白是其中最活泼、最聪慧的一位，她无意中听到达西十分高傲地贬评当地庸俗的社交界，拒绝彬格莱先生将自己介绍给他时，伊丽莎白对他顿生偏见，尽管他相貌英俊，家财万贯。但是随着达西的傲慢逐渐转化为爱情时，伊丽莎白的偏见也就消除了，最终迈入了婚姻的殿堂！
