ЛИСТ РЕГИСТРАЦИИ ИЗМЕНЕНИЙ 15 17 Лекции по дисциплине «Зарубежная литература и литература страны изучаемого языка» Lecture I Introduction Periods of literature Literature is closely connected with the life and history of the people. In order to understand English literature it is necessary to know not only the history of the country and to have, at least, glimpses of world literature. In this course of lectures, we have decided to attract attention to the most important stages in the development of Antique, Italian, German, French, American, and, of course, English literatures and to problematic points touched upon in the works of some well-known writers. We shall discuss the creative work of the major Antique writers, literature of the Middle Ages, Renaissance, of the 17th century, including classicism and baroque. Naturally, certain attention will paid to literature of the Age of Enlightenment, of the Romantic period, to Critical realism of the 19th century. The life and creative work of the leading writers of the Transition Period (from the 19th to the 20th c.) will also be discussed. The final stage under discussion will be literature of the 20th century together with its multitude of trends like realism, naturalism, modernism, and so on. A special attention will be paid to the impact of social and political factors existing, or which had existed in the world and in a definite country within the time limits of certain literary stages on the choice of genres and creativity of the men of letters. This, we believe, can reveal the major specific features of development of literature in the above mentioned countries and periods. During the whole course there will be constant allusions to the impact of Russian writers on the creative work of some foreign authors and vice versa. 18 Lecture II Sources of literature Antique literature Sources of literature. Without having imagination about the sources of literature, it is difficult to understand many problems discussed by authors of different ages. Even a brief analysis of this topic will show that to the typical and universal sources belong: A) folklore and mythology, which are important sources of any literature beginning with ancient Greek one. With the help of myths, the primitive man wished to understand the strange phenomena of nature. The term “myth” has a wide meaning, including the names of different gods, and all the magic wonders. The study of folklore and myths needs deep knowledge of customs, traditions, theology, and so on. B) To the sources of literature belong fairy-tales and fables, too. The fairy tale is one of the most popular genres in literature of all nations. The fable is also one of the oldest narrations having a laconic and moralizing character. Greece played a special role in the establishment and development of this genre. It is believed that the founder the fable is Aesop (the 6th c. B. C.). if we take Russia, the climax of the genre of the fable was reached in I. A. Krilov’s writings, who took the plots from Aesop or LaFonten but he brought them to perfection. Antique literature. By Antique literature they usually mean ancient Greek and Roman literature. It has passed through centuries. Homer’s poems, the Greek drama, the works of great Roman poets up to now are considered as important pieces of art and historical documents of the vanished civilizations. Antique literature had practically all the genres of modern literature: the epic poem, tragedy, comedy, ode, satire, etc. it has always served as a source of themes and topics for later writers. As a rule, Antique literature is divides into the following periods: 1) early Greek literature until the beginning of the 5th c. B. C.; 2) literature of Classical Greece: the 5th – 4th c. B. C.); 3) the Hellenistic Period (the end of the 4th c. B. C. - until the end of the 1st c. A. D.; 4) the Roman period of Greek literature (beginning with the end of 19 the 1st c. A. D. to the earliest Greek literary works belong the poems “The Iliad” and “The Odicy” (ascribed to Homer), which tell about the Trojan War. Until our times Attic drama (the tragedy, comedy and satirical drama) has attracted attention by their topics, ideas and ideals, like the works of Eskhil (“Petitioners”, “Oresteya”, “The Persians”, “Prometheus”, etc.); Sophocles (“Oedipus in Colon”, “Antigona”, etc.); Euripides (“Media”, “Wise Melanipia”, “Electra”, “Trojan Women”, etc.). The Roman literature used and developed further all that had been invented by the Greeks, but it became a kind of link between the Greek and the Western European one. Antique writings as a rule were translated from Latin – the Roman version of Antiquity. To the earliest Roman poets belong L. Andronicus, G. Nevi, Plavt, Ennis, Trensi, etc. Lecture III Medieval literature When talking about Italian literature, one can’t but start it with the life and creative work of Dante Alligery (1265 – 1321) – the last greatest poet of the Middle Ages, the author of “The Devine Comedy”, by which he influenced the work of artists of the coming generations: Michael Angelo’s sculptures, Tchaikovsky’s music, the poetry of Byron, Goethe, Block, and others. In Germany, many of the early songs, ballads and other kinds of folklore were written down by learned monks during the Middle Ages. Among the greatest works is “The Song about the Nebelungs” (“Der Nibelungen Lied”, circa 1200). By the 12th c., with the development of feudalism the knights played a big role in the german literature: there appeared a lyrical poetry about love. In the late quarter of the 12th c., in Germany developed the chivalrous or courteous novel. the founder of this genre is supposed to be Her Heinrich von Vildeke, the author of the novel “Roman d’Eneas”, circa 1160. 20 The literature of France in the Middle Ages reflected social interests. Among the popular genres were epic poems, short lyrical compositions, novels, religious dramas, etc. have reached our times. One of the most famous epic poems is “La Chanson de Roland”. The earliest copy of it is dated by the year 1170. It tells about the defeat of Karl the Great in Spain, which happened in 778. Rolland is presented as a noble devoted to his motherland warrior. In the 12th c. the main theme of literature was love.the courteous writers used antique themes for their compositions. A special place was occupied by the Celtic legends about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. In the following years, nothing great happened in the field of literature. There was a group of poets known as the School of Rhetoricians headed by Guillaume Machaunt, 1300 – 1377. Besides love topics, they used topics connected with morality and didactics. Lecture IV Anglo-Saxon, Middle English and Pre-Renaissance Literature English literature is one of the richest literatures in the world. It includes masterpieces in many literary forms. English authors wrote important works as early as the 700’s A. D. The history of English literature is usually divided into periods such as: Early English Literature (V-XIV), Middle English Literature (1350-1495), Renaissance (1495 – 1603), Early 17th Century and Restoration Literature (1603 – 1700), Enlightenment (1700-1785), Romanticism (1785 – 1830), the 19th c. literature, or Victorian Period (1830 – 1903), Modern Period (1903-1950), literature of the 2nd half of the 20th century. We should admit the fact that these periods are not perfect. They are used to give a guide to historical relations between authors and “movements”. Most scholars think that English literature started with the very first verse sung on the English soil. Poetry was the first literary genre. “The Lay of Beowulf” – one of the earliest Anglo-Saxon poems was composed either before 500 A. D. or about 700 A. D. the epic shows the 21 ideals of the ancestors of the English, what they held most dear, and the way they lived and died. The literary ideals changed with the Norman Conquest of 1066. During the following 200 years, the ideals of chivalry and the Crusades left their imprint on the Anglo-Saxon literature. Nevertheless, to the English reader the most interesting of the romances were those, which dealt with the exploits of King Arthur and the Nights of the Round Table. If in the 13th c. the religious, social and intellectual life of the time was profoundly affected by the great philosopher and scientist Roger Bacon (1214-1294), in the 14th - the minds were attracted by the allegoric writings of William Langland and John Wycliffe. However, G. Chaucer (1340/1347 – 1400), the author of “The Canterbury Tales”, expressed his century best of all. Chaucer contributed not only to the establishment of national literature but also to the formation of the national language. In the 15th c. folk poetry flourished in England and Scotland. There were harvestsongs, mowing-songs, spinning-songs, etc. the best of folk poetry were ballads: historical, legendary, lyrical and humorous. The most popular ballads were about Robin Hood – England’s favourite hero, a partly legendary, historical character. He lived in the times of King Henry II and his son Richard the Lion-Heart. Robin Hood - the brave outlaw – together with his friends lived in Sherwood Forest. The ballads tell us about his adventures and his struggle against the Norman oppressors. The ballads of Robin Hood gained great popularity in the second half of the 14th century when the peasants struggled against their masters. Critics say, the ballads played an important role in the development of English poetry up to the 20th century. Many ballads and stories about this national hero have been turned into films, which enjoy great popularity among spectators in many different countries. 22 Lecture V The Renaissance The word “renaissance” means “rebirth” in French and was used to denote a phase in the cultural development of Europe between the 14th and 17th centuries. Its birthplace was Italy. The Middle Ages were followed by a more progressive period due to numerous events. The bourgeoisie appeared as a new class. Great men appeared in art, science and literature. The Period of Renaissance was the rebirth of ancient Greek and Roman art and literature. Ancient culture attracted writers because it was full of joy life and glorified the beauty of man. The writers turned against feudalism and roused in men a wish to know more about the true nature of things in the world. These new ideas first appeared in Italy, then in France (by the end of the 15th c.: Marguerite de Navarre – a poet, story-writer; F. Rabelais – the author of the 5volume work about Gargantuan) and Germany (in the second half of the 15th c.: A. Durer, H. Holbein, Erasmus from Rotterdam, S. Brant – a representative of the Burger Literature, etc.), and shortly afterwards in Spain and England. The Italian poets Dante, Petrarch, Boccaccio, the French writer Rabelais, the Spanish writer Cervantes, and the English writer Thomas More and the poet Shakespeare helped people to fight for freedom and better future. The Italian painters and sculptors Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci, and Michelangelo glorified the beauty of man. The wave of progress reached England in the 16th c. the Renaissance showed in England almost all the characteristics, which it had demonstrated throughout Europe: thought was liberated, destiny and morals became problematical, superior beauty was perceived in the literature of classical antiquity. One of the greatest humanists of this period was Thomas More., and the greatest playwrights was W. Shakespeare (the author of dramas, comedies and tragedies: “Richard III”, “The Comedy of Errors”, “Romeo and Juliet”, “King Lear, “Hamlet”, “Othello”, etc.), who continued the way traced by Marlowe and the “University Wits”. 23 One of the latest of the Renaissance writers was Ben Jonson, the author of brilliant plays: “The case is Altered”, “Every Man in His Humour”, “Cateline”, etc. The end of the Renaissance is the time when development of literature was restricted, thought was concentrated on a single book – the Bible; it was the triumph of Puritanism. Lectures VI - VII Literature of the 17th century Renaissance Realism Baroque (from Latin: irregular, strange) Classicism Restoration literature The portrait of the 17th century is rather complex: it witnessed the crisis of the humanistic ideas of the Renaissance and the strengthening of anti-feudal struggle. Some scholars are inclined to point out three stages in the literature of this century: the so-called Renaissance Realism (Lope de Vega, late Ben Jonson; the Baroque that combined the ideas of the Middle Ages and of the Renaissance disguised by pessimism and Classicism. These three stages can be easily traced in Italian literature. For the Italian baroque writers the world was full of controversies, damaged feelings. It was like an echo of the hedonistic antiquity. An important figure of this period is Gambatist Marino – the inventor of the trend “Marinism” and the author of his famous poem “Adonis” (1623). Other representatives are Gabrielo Cabrere, Fulvous Testy, Tommazo Campanilli – the author of the novel “A Sunny Town” (1623). The 17th-century German literature was experiencing two trends; the Baroque and Classicism. Very often, the baroque writers expressed pessimism, mysticism, defenselessness. Nevertheless, there were writes who wished to help people to overcome the chaos that had been cause by the war (Andreas Griphins, Logau, Morscherosch, Opiz). 24 The French classical writers had taken themes from the antique literature: heroic ballads, fables, comedies, tragedies and so on. Among the leading French writers of this period come first Francois de Malherbe, Jean de La Fontaine, Jean Baptiste Poquelin know to the world as Jean Baptiste Moliere (“School of Husbands”, “School of Wives”, “Tartuffe”). The latter is rightfully called the father of the French theatre. And to understand the English literature of the 17th century, one should have to look back at the history of England. When the throne passed from Elizabeth I to James I, the Crown and the Parliament had frequent run-ins. The situation worsened when in 1625, Charles I came to power and decided to rule without a Parliament trying to strengthen his position. The consequences of his policy caused the Civil War (1642 – 1649). In 1648, Charles was imprisoned and in 1649 – beheaded. The power went to the leader of the Revolution – Oliver Cromwell who ruled until his death in 1660. Those events are known as the English Bourgeois Revolution. Among the writers of this period were Th. Browne, R. Baxter, J. Owen, and John Milton – one of the greatest publicists and leading ideologists during the Revolution whose pamphlets supported the struggle of the bourgeoisie against the Crown. As a poet, he dominated the 17th century. After the Glorious Revolution - the Restoration 1688) of the Crown, when Charles II came to power, Milton was not destroyed but he was forced to live in oblivion. The result of this state were Milton’s three highly allegoric capital works: “Paradise Lost”, “Paradise Regained” and “Samson Agonistes”. The blind poet rejected the themes of the Renaissance, found inspiration only in the Bible. If in Europe literature was changing from century to century being influenced by different events, the literature of America in the 17th century was only establishing its foundation. Religion was the main subject of Colonial American literature. Among the earliest colonial writers were A. Bradstreet, E. Taylor, Captain John Smith, John Winthrop, William Bradford, Roger Williams, etc. Attention should be paid to Restoration literature too. And here comes a question: ‘Why is it called like this?’ The answer can be found in the history of Britain. When Cromwell died, Charles II, who had spent the dark years in France, was asked to 25 return home and occupy the throne. He did it but his power was more symbolic because the Parliament had more authority. People were becoming more literate. The genre of the essay attracted more attention and poetry was changing its quality – acquiring more mathematical features, due to the changes in science and mathematic. Proofs for it can be found in A. Pope’s works. Though verses were easily understood but they looked like instructions. Restoration readers were no longer interested in the complicated syntax and lofty themes of the earlier Elizabethan fiction. Lecture VIII Literature of the 18th Century Enlightenment Pre- Romanticism Literature of this period was much influence by the social, political, economic, etc. changes nearly in all the European countries. Western Europe witnessed many serious social changes. If we turn our minds to Italy, we shall see that the country as well as Germany was split into many tiny states influenced by the Catholic Church, and the north of it was occupied by Austria. Italian literature were lagging behind that of other European countries, but it doesn’t mean that there were no men of letters. Italians are proud of Cessari Becaria (a lawyer and a writer, the author of “About crime and Punishment”); Jam-Batista Vicco – a writer and scholar; Petra Metastasio – the author of more than 60 plays, opera scripts and other works; Goldoni – the author of many comedies. And in Germany the Age of Enlightenment was glorified by J. Ch. Gottsched (the author of “Experience of critical Poetry for Germans”. To him belong such tragedies as “Der sterbende Cato”, “Die pariser Bluthochzeit”, etc.); G. E. Lessing, J. W. Goethe, J. Ch. F. Shiller and others. Literature of this period is known under the name of “Sturm and Drang” – a German version of Sentimentalism. 26 Adhering to Aesop’s traditions, Lessing wrote fables in prose, and in 1772, he completed his “Emilia Galotti” – the first German social tragedy, which had paved the way for Schiller – the German playwright (“Dir Rºubers”, “Kabale und Liebe”, “Don Carlos”, “Maria Stuart”, “Wilhelm Tell). Schiller’s creative work with that of J. W. Goethe made the peak and at the same time the closing stage of the German Enlightenment. Young Goethe wrote many lyrical verses, a drama and the famous novel “Young Verter’s Sufferings”. He expressed his rebellious feelings and thoughts in the ode “Prometheus”, 1774. in 1782, Goethe wrote his famous “Erlk¿nig”, based on Norwegian folklore. V. A. Zhukovsky translated it wonderfully into Russian. Together with Schiller, Goethe wrote several hundreds of epigrams. In comparison with the German and English enlighteners, the French ones were more revolutionary minded. Their aim was to build an ideal society based on equality and justice. The beginning of the Age of Enlightenment literature was dominated by Montesquieu and Voltaire. The next generation of the enlighteners were more democratically minded. Their leader was Denis Diderot whose influence and connections were great. He corresponded even with Katherine the Great (II) and once spent several years in Russia. Being an aesthete, he wrote such works as “La Beau”, “Salons”, etc. But he is known as a playwright too (“Le Fils naturel”, “Le Pere de familie”). He wrote philosophical novels as well. A special place was occupied by Rousseau, whose name has always been associated with Sentimentalism. His literary heritage is huge: he is the author of novels, articles, researches on different topics, etc. moreover, the whole educated world knows the name of Pierre Augustin Caron (Bomarche), whose plays make the peak of the French Enlightenment (“Le Barbier se Seville”, “Le marriage de Figaro”. The prevailing trend in literature was the revolutionary Classicism constructed on plots borrowed from Antique literature, the tragedy being the leading genre. Among the poets a special fame was enjoyed by Ponce Denis-Ecouchard ebrun, Andre Chenier. 27 The central problem to the writers was the study of man and the origin of his good and evil qualities. In addition, a deep hatred for feudalism was expressed in the works of English writers. In England there was a transition from poetry to and the heroic age of Shakespeare to the prosaic age of the essayists demonstrating grate skills in the genre (Defoe, Swift, Steele, Addison). The leading form of literature became the novel, choosing for a hero a representative of the middle class. Towards the middle of the century Sentimentalism began to show its signs (S. Richardson – “Pamela”). In 1719, D. Defoe published his “Robinson Crusoe”, which glorifies practicalness and energy. It is called the first European realistic novel showing a typical bourgeois who thinks, the future belongs to the toiling class. Another writer that has pushed the English literature forward was J Swift – the author of the masterpiece “Gulliver’s Travels”. Henry Fielding wishing to reform stage tragedy, the novel, has also made a deep imprint on the development of the English literature. It is universally acclaimed, that his masterpiece is the highly plotted “History of Tom Jones, a Foundling”. In the opinion of the critics, Fielding was the first to formulate the theory of the realistic novel. In the USA, the ideas of the Age of Reason were expressed in the Revolution (B. Franklin, Th, Jefferson, Th. Paine, Ph. Freneau). The leading genres were pamphlets, articles, satirical and humorous works. Prose in America began to grow and develop on the foundation of the English traditions. Lecture IX Literature of the 19th Century Romanticism Critical Realism Literature of the 19th century in Western Europe has a complex structure, but the dominating place in it is occupied by two important trends: Romanticism and Critical Realism, both of which have their own difficult for solution problems. Moreover, the 28 impact of the French Revolution is felt on the development of the 19th – century European literature. In France itself, the leading literary trend was revolutionary romanticism expressing disappointment of masses. To the greatest representatives of it belonged Francois-Rene de Chateabriand, Germaine de Stael, Victor Mawie Hugo- the author of poems, dramas and novels (“Notre-Dame de Paris”, “L’ Homme qui rit” – “The man Who Laughs”, etc.); George Sand, who wrote about proud lonely people, against despotism in families (“Indiana”, “Valentine”,”Lelia”). She also wrote social novels, in which she described common people and criticized the aristocratic society. And such writers as Stendhal, Balzac, Merimee presented realism in French literature in the first half of the 19th century. The second half of it was glorified by the realistic works of Guy de Maupassant, and the symbolists: Paul Varlaine, Arthur Rimbaur. In Italy, the first 30 years of the 19th century were connected with the carbonarism. The second stage (1830 – 1840) – the establishment of two wings within the Resorgimento: a revolutionary-democratic and a moderate-liberal. The third stage (1849 – 1870) witnessed the weakening of Romanticism. Its place was occupied by realistic tendencies. In the second half of the 19th century in the vanguard were poetry, playwriting, publicistic works (Alessandro Manzoni –a poet, playwright, novelist, historian, linguist, philosopher; Tomaso Grossi – the author of historical novels). As in many countries, the 19th – century German literature also passed through two stages: Romanticism (F. Schlegel, Henrich von Kleist, Ernst Hoffmann, Henrich Heine) and Realism (Th. Storm, G. Hauptman) that expressed a critical attitude to reality and capitalist forms of oppression Studying English literature of the Romantic period, one can distinguish two successive generations possessing certain features. 1) The Lake poets claimed as their authority the examples of the Elizabethan Renaissance. Though resisting the orthodox principles, this generation was in moral 29 harmony with the large majority of the public. Their romanticism rested upon the emotions that were common to all (W. Wordsworth, S. T. Coleridge, R. Southey). 2) In an atmosphere of poverty and internal problems caused by wars, the second generation of romanticists demonstrated a spirit of moral revolt (G. G. Byron, P. B. Shelley, J. Keats). From 1830’s onwards, it was evident that Romanticism was becoming weaker and many writers began looking for other sources of inspiration among the working people who fought for their rights and whose political and social demands were expressed in the People’s Charter in 1833. The Chartist movement lasted until 1848. this movement attracted the minds of the celebrated writers of the time, who began to reflect class clashes in their works, thus, paving the way to a new trend called ‘Critical Realism’ – the prominent representatives of which were Ch. Dickena, W. M. Thackeray, G. Eliot, the Bronte sisters, E. Gaskell). Critical Realists introduced new personages into literature; ordinary working people. The romantic spirit crossed the Atlantic Ocean and began to spread in the New World in the years of disillusionment that followed the Revolution of 1775 – 1783. There are different approaches to the development of Romanticism in America, but normally they distinguish three stages: 1) 1820’s – 1830’s: the short stories of W. Irwing, Cooper’s “Thje Spy”, “The Pioneers”, E. A. Poe’s poems; 2) 1840’s and the first half of the 1850’s: Cooper’s later novels, Poe’s later romances and poems, Longfellow’s works; 3) the second half of the 1850’s and the 1860’s: Walt Whitman’s early poems. In the early ears of the 19th century, in America there began to spread abolition ideas. Among the writers affected by this problem was H. Beecher-Stowe (“Uncle Tom’s Cabin”). And Critical Realism as a trend developed after the Civil War. The realists understood that people should be shown as a whole – against the background of social conflicts of the day (H. Melville, M. Twain, O. Henry, B. Harte, J. London). 30 Lecture X American literature of the 20th century Realists and naturalists Social critics The Harlem Renaissance The “lost generation” The rise of American drama Three developments influenced American literature from 1900 to 1941: 1) the writers began to look realistically at the social problems, which had been brought by the Industrial Revolution during the late 1980’s; 2) World War I and the economic depression of the 1930’s; 3) the psychoanalytic studies of S. Freud. Realists and naturalists. Mark Twain, Henry James, W. D. Howells and some other ones had written realistic stories. Howells defined the aims of realism as “nothing more and nothing less than the trouble truthful of material” as in his novel “The Rise of Silas Lapham” (1885). Later S. Crane, F. Norris, Th. Dreiser led the way toward powerful realistic and naturalistic writing. Brutal violence characterizes many of the novels of J. London (“The Call of the Wild”, “White Fang”, etc.). in the 1930’s Henry Miller wrote his best-known novels (“Tropic of Cancer”, “Tropic of Capricorn”) – both were banned from publication in the US until 1960’s. Social critics. Some writers used realism and naturalism to expose social evels. This group included L. Steffens, I. M. Tarbell, U. Sinclait, social criticism grew more intense during the Great Depression of the 1930’s (Th. Wolfe, N. West, J. Steinbeck). The Harlem Renaissance. During the 1920’s, black literature began to flourish in Harlem, New York (P. L. Dunbar, J. W. Johnson). Harlem writers began to explore black American culture. The “Lost generation”. To this “generation” belong the young American writers who gathered in Paris after World War I (E. Hemingway, F. S. Fitzgerald, W. Faulkner). The rise of American drama. Drama lagged behind other literary forms in the US. early American plays were either melodramatic tragedies or sentimental comedies. 31 The situation began to change in the 20th century. E. O’Neill revolutionized the theatre with his realistic themes. He won national and international fame in the 1920’s (“Beyond the Horizon). The 1930’s and 1940’s were dominated by the plays of H. Lindsay and R. Crouse(”Life with Father”, etc.). After World War II some writers began to write about the war itself: I. Shaw (“The Young Lions”); N. Mailer (“The Naked and the Dead”); H. Wouk (“The Kain Mutiny”); J. Jones (“From hero to Eternity). The second half of the 20th century witnessed the creative work of many talented authors: W. Morris, J. Cheever, J. Updike, J. D. Salinger. A number of poets wrote extremely personal works: “77 Dream Songs” by J. Berryman; “Litany” by J. Ashbery; Ken Kesey (“The Flight over the Cuckoo’s Nest”). Various aspects of American life have been examined by them. American contemporary writers managed to present a many-sided picture of the changing American reality with all its ups and downs.
