Madame Bovary is the greatest novel written by Gustave Flaubert. The 1855 masterpiece portrays in searing detail the tragic tale of a young girl whose dreams turned into nightmares; whose sandcastles are swept away by unfulfilled passion; whose young life is ended in a tragic death. Years before Tolstoy limned the adultress woman in his Anna Karenina we see the consequences which ensue when a middle class wife and mother breaks the seventh commandment. The novel takes place near Rouen in the north of France. There are actually three Madame Bovarys in the story. Madame Bovary Sr. who is the mother of Charles Bovary dominates her weak son. Madame Bovary I is an ugly but wealthy woman who dies allowing Charles to wed the lovely Emma Bovary who is the the famed woman of the book's title. Emma has grown up on a farm coddled by her widower father. She has immersed herself in romantic tales and spent time in a French convent. Emma dreams of castles in the air and a charming prince to take her to paradise. Today she would be a reader of Harlequin Romances. She is a virgin plum ripe for picking! Charles Bovary ("bovine" meaning cow-like; also think "ovary for his scandolous wife Emma) is a dull, stupid and lethargic public health inspector. He is a good man but is a total dullard! Charles weds Emma after treating her father. At first all goes well as the couple set up house in a French provincial town where little exciting ever occurs. They have a daughter Berthe with whom Emma has little to do. She never grows up to becoming a mature woman. Emma carries on two affairs in the novel with the law student Leon and the wealthy but callous womanizing aristocrat Rodolphe. She is sucked into a cesspool of overwhelming debt being addicted to clothing, jewelry and furniture. Emma's lovers forsake her as her disillusionment with men and life itelf takes over life. Madame Bovary ends her life by committing suicide. The account of her horrific, painful and grotesque death from her fatal injection of arsenic rat poison will never be forgotten by the reader. Despite her many sins she deserves pity at such a sad end. Her husband dies a few years later and her daughter has to be farmed out to a relative. What makes this novel of adultery, satirical views of provincial life, mockery of the relgious hypocrisy in the French countryside and lacerating portraits of such types as the village atheist Homais so great? In my opinion the reasons this is such a landmark work must include: a. A picture of a woman seeking to break out of the nineteenth century bourgeoisie view of females as placid wives and mothers with no aspirations of their own. Throughout the novel there are images of birds seeking freedom from cages. Emma is a modern feminist in the nineteenth century society she finds impossible to escape. Emma is an iconoclastic rebel. b. A satirical and cynical view of human hypocrisy drawn with skill in the pictures Flaubert draws of such figures as the village priest, scientist, merchants and moneylenders. Society is concerned with money and social status to the detriment of more spiritual and ethical values. c. Flaubert introduces a new realism to the novel which will influence such naturalist as Emile Zola and others. The novel reads as if it was written today instead of over 150 years ago. d. Flaubert's descriptions of the beauty of nature (and its indifference to human suffering and troubles) are beautifully etched. His use of language and the level of suspense he maintains throughout the work are excellent. e. Flaubert is not afraid to describe female sexual longings. His sex scenes are tasteful to our eyes but viewed as prurient reading in his own day.
谈高级英语中的文化背景知识
论文摘要: 高级英语是英语专业高年级阶段的一门主干课程。高级中应该重视文化背景知识,找准文化切入点,将文化教学和课文教学相结合。 一、高级英语教学和英语教学目标 国家教委《高等学校英语专业高年级英语教学大纲》规定,高等学校英语专业高年级英语的教学任务是“继续打好基本功,进一步扩大知识面,重点应放在培养英语综合技能,充实文化知识,提高交际能力上” 。2004年新版《高校英语专业八级考试大纲》对八级考试的内容和要求作了修改和调整,取消了快速阅读,取而代之人文知识题,包括、英语语言学、英美概况等三方面知识,着重考查学生英语专业领域的知识广度。 高级英语是英语专业高年级阶段的主干课程,从课时的分配、学生的投入和教师的重视程度,它当之无愧地属于“重头戏”。目前使用的教材是李观仪主编的《新编英语教程》(5、6册),是国家级的重点教材, 书中的课文都选自原文,体裁多样,有描写、叙述、议论、说明、、小说节选等。文章的篇幅较长,词汇量大,语言精深,寓意深刻,有丰富的文化底蕴。这个阶段的英语学习不是单纯的英语知识,而是将自然科学、文学以及文化知识的学习有机地融合在一起。对学生和教师的要求都比较高。比如说第五册第三单元(My Friend, Albert Einstein)的作者是一位家和学家,曾经和爱因斯坦共事过。这篇文章通过回忆爱因斯坦的一些鲜为人知的轶事,向读者描绘了一个幽默、随和、单纯的科学家形象。爱因斯坦最著名的相对论和光量子说,在课文中也有所提及。 因此在高级英语教学中教师应该调整教学重点,从片面注重语言本身,如词汇、句子结构、语法知识,转移到语篇的理解,如文章的背景、作者的意图、写作风格等等。把对文化的学习和理解摆在重要位置,通过在教学中导入文化背景知识,拓宽学生知识结构,提高其文化修养,培养学生的综合能力。 二、在教学中渗透英美人文知识 语言和文化是密不可分的,语言是文化的体现和载体,文化是语言的内涵。不论是哪种体裁的文章都有一定的和背景,小说、说明文和议论文都是如此。高级英语的课文一般涉及到很多文化信息,比如历史事件、、神话故事、宗教典故、社会风俗、价值观念、《圣经》等等。每篇课文的Library Work列出了课文中出现的背景知识和有关典故。课文的注解有作家的介绍和历史背景。但是如果把各个文化点像流水帐一样泛泛地讲一遍,单纯地向学生灌输知识,并不能真正提高学生能力。高级英语教学应将文化知识有机地融入课文的讲解中,激发学生的求知欲望。 经过两年基础英语的学习,学生对英语的一些语言现象与文化习俗有了一定的了解,但是他们的知识面还相当狭窄。教师要引导学生培养良好的学习习惯和主动思维能力,拓宽他们的知识面。可以布置学生预习,通过查阅工具书、相关书籍收集资料。网络走进了千千万万人的'生活,学生宿舍现在都可以上网查资料。学生可以利用网络的便利,在网上查询有关的文化背景知识。同时可以推荐学生阅读一些与课文相关的书籍,浏览各种英语报刊,获取更多的背景知识,使学生对所讲课文有更直接、更深刻的认识。 比如第五册第1课 “Hit the Nail on the head”,讲的是如何选词。文中一个重要的例子是福楼拜。福楼拜是法国著名作家,他以用字精准、注重细节著称,对作品的完美要求近乎苛刻。他的第一部小说是《包法利夫人》,他用了将近 5年的时间推敲每一个字句。他认为每一个字都有一定的内容,“在所有的表现中间,所有的形体中间,所有的样式中间,只有一个表现、一个样式和一个形体表现我的意思”(莫泊桑的《福楼拜》)。而且他认为写作的才分主要在于如何选择用词。课文的注解只是简单提到福楼拜如何修改自己的作品,但是没有具体的例子。 作为英语专业大三学生,很多学生可能知道《包法利夫人》这本书,但是没有仔细阅读过。这时可以引入《包法利夫人》中的一些经典句子: On entering the dining room, Emma felt herself enveloped by a warm atmosphere in which the fragrance of flowers and fine linen mingled with the odor of hot meat and truffles. (Chapter 8, Part I) She was eating a maraschino ice from a sliver-gilt shell that she was holding in her left hand; the spoon was between her teeth and her eyes were half shut. (Chapter 8, Part I) 通过分析划线词语,让学生体会到福楼拜精确的用词。并且推荐学生阅读《包法利夫人》以及福楼拜的其他作品。这样从课内学习延伸到课外阅读,一篇文章扩展到多篇文章的学习。 《圣经》是基督教的经典,在西方社会家喻户晓,是民众推崇的圣物。《圣经》不仅是宗教经典,而且是﹑文学﹑的巨献。《圣经》对英语语言有巨大的影响,西方文学作品和神话传说中有大量的典故﹑习语甚至情节都源于《圣经》。如果不了解《圣经》,理解一些作品是有一定难度的。第五册第15课I Have a Dream(我有一个梦想)是美国民权运动领袖马丁·路德·金在林肯纪念堂前向25万人发表的著名的。马丁·路德·金在演讲中采用了圣经引言(biblical allusion)。 例如: “...we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.” (我们不会满意,直至公正似水奔流,正义如泉喷涌。)引用自《圣经·旧约》中的《阿摩司书》,表达了马丁·路德·金追求自由、平等和的执著精神。 “I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted,every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plains, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.” (我梦想有一天,深谷弥合,高山夷平,歧路化坦途,曲径成通衢,上帝的光华再现,普天下生灵共谒。)这个句子引自《圣经·旧约》中的《以赛亚书》。以赛亚是仅次于摩西的一名先知,也是一名学家。马丁·路德·金引用这句话,描述了他对美好未来的期望。 当然在这篇马丁·路德·金演讲经典中,教师也不能忘记介绍美国当时的历史社会背景。美国南北战争所致力的解放黑奴运动,并没有使黑人成为完全平等的公民。黑人的公民权利受到了限制和约束,不能充分参与美国社会生活,甚至在一百年后仍然和奴隶一样被剥夺了种种权利。六十年代黑人的平等问题成为一个严重的社会问题,美国社会各界掀起了一场争取民权的运动。 除此以外,选准好的切入点是非常重要的。一篇课文中点讲解不宜太多。要根据课文理解的需要,抓住一些能够集中反映英美社会特征的典型进行分析,挖掘的社会含义,有重点有选择地进行讲解分析,让学生进一步了解英美文化,正确认识西方社会。第五册第4课The Invisible Poor,描述的是美国社会存在的隐形的贫穷现象,可以从60年代美国的社会状况着手,以当时的“urban renewal”, “housing program”为切入点,介绍美国城市里的贫民区和少数聚居地里人民的生活状态,从而了解美国社会存在巨大的贫富差距,加深学生对西方社会的认识。 三、结束语 总之,高级教学要结合课文的文化背景,使学生“在习得语言的同时也习得了文化”,从而培养学生的人文知识和精神。强调教学中学习文化背景知识的重要性,并不是仅仅让学生了解与课文相关的英美国家的知识片断,更重要的是引导学生培养良好的思维习惯,眼光从语言点转移到对语篇的理解和欣赏上。教师应将文化教学和课文教学相结合,挖掘课文的文化内涵,了解中英文化差异,加深对原文的理解,使语言和文化的学习相得益彰。 参考文献: [1] 刘世雄. 《高级英语》中的修辞与文化解读[J]. 湖北民族学院学报(社会科学版),2006,(2).

刚看了关于《包法利夫人》的影评,觉得很是值得太多女人反思。Having read the film review of Madame Bovary,I found many things worthwhile for most women to contemplate.“一个女人,生得美,闲适地生活在小城,有一个小人物的丈夫,因为爱幻想。她企望着更绚丽的人生,期望得到一种更自由的生活,浪漫的爱情……枯燥无味的生活里,她的幻想膨胀着,心生出翅膀,先是赖昂……可是赖昂走了,占据她的心的又变成罗道耳弗,一个情场浪子,一个调情高手。两个男人,欺她,却没有伤害她。害死爱玛的,是她自己,她的幻想,她追求浮华生活的心。幻想应该继续,可是因为八千法郎的债务催逼上身,她去向赖昂和罗道耳弗求助,她了解了事实的真相,他们只是生活在她幻想美梦里的王子,而不是现实生活中能助她一臂之力的热心情人。高额债务把她拉回现实,她选择了服毒。“A woman with born beauty lived comfortably in a small had a husband of of the addiction to imagine,she expected a more wonderful life,looking forward to a more unrestricted living and romantic love……During the boring life,her fantasy was expanding,her heart growed with wings,the first one was Leon……But Leon left the second one who occupied her was Rodolfo,a lovelace and flirting two men cheated her,but didn’t hurt one who killed Emma was herself,her illusion and her heart to pursue a foppish fantasy should be continued,but with the debt of 8000 francs stressing her,she asked Leon and Rodolfo for she knew the truth that they were just fictitious princes living in her fantastic dream,but not the warm-hearted lovers who could lend a hand to her in the real debt-ridden drawed her back to reality,so she chose to take poison.这让我想起契坷夫的一个小说人物,奥尔迦。伊凡诺夫人,她一生都在结识名流,寻找伟大的可以让她迷狂让她幸福的男人,跳来跳去,爱慕着虚荣,放荡于那些看似优秀的男人之间,她一次次被欺自己,进入下一轮的爱慕和追寻,直到她的丈夫将要死去,她看着穿衣镜里的自己苍白的脸儿,回顾着自己比脸色更苍白无血色的曾经,她才想起丈夫平日里那温和依顺的笑容,对不起丈夫对她那深厚无边的爱。遗憾的是,包法利夫人至死都没有明白什么是爱。她短促的一生,都在幻想的大海里遨游,直到触礁沉没。”This reminds me of a character in Bychkov’s novel, Madame Olga spent her whole life making acquaintance with gentry and seeking men who could fascinate her and make her vain, she leaped around and indulged herself between those so-called outstanding lied to herself time after time and went into the next adoration and hunting until her husband was about to at the pale face in the mirror and reviewing the ashener foretime than her face,she finally remembered her husband’s worm smile and felt sorry to his endless Bovary didn’t know what love was until she spent all her short lifetime in roaming in the fantastic ocean till she struck on the rock and sank.从历史回过头来,其实现实生活中很多包法利夫人的影子。当然我们不能全然否定这种对爱情的向往,对美好生活的追求。任何人都有这种权利。只是一定要到最后才醒悟,或者一生都不能醒悟,那也的确可悲!Looking back upon the history,there are many shadows of Madame Bovary in real course we cannot cpmpletely deny this desire to love and the pursuit to wonderful life,because everyone owns this if it will only disillude in the end or even cannot in the whole life,then that’s really mournful.终于搞定,太长了纯手工翻译,请阅读一下验收 谢谢 下次还找我啊!
