Local colorism as a trend first came to prominence in the late 19th century in America. The local colorists were devoted to capturing the unique customs, manners, speech, folklore and other qualities of a particular regional community, usually in humorous short stories. The most famous local colorist was Mark Twain. His fiction The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, published in 1884, was regarded as"the first great novel in America", as well as the most classical work of local colorism. 相似文献

Arthur Miller was considered as the most famous dramatist in America after the World War II, and his representative work Death of a Salesman was recognized as the best play in America during the post-war years. It was also considered to be one of the best three plays in the history of American drama; with A Streetcar Named Desire and Long Day’s Journey into Night.Through the failure of two generations, this play addressed the painful conflicts within one family, and it also tackled greater issues regarding to Americans’ national values.As an average person, Willy Loman had experienced hopes and pains, struggles and frustrations as well as dreams and disillusions, at last he chose to commit suicide. Based on the existent materials, the predecessor’s researches as well as her own thinking, the author of this paper gives a brief analysis of the leading role’s tragic fate, which mainly elaborates three important stages of Willy Loman’s tragic life: disillusion of the American Dream, the abandonment and the betrayal, aiming to decode the root of Loman’s tragedy from the perspectives of society, family and the protagonist’s character. In conclusion, the paper tries to explore Arthur Miller’s inner world and the resources of his creation as far as possible, hoping to give readers of this paper certain inspiration. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) was first introduced from South America into China as a good fodder plant in 1901, and had become a serious en- vironmental problem in China by the early 21st cen- tury (Ding et al., 2001). Of the total loss of USD 7 billion brought about by foreign weed species in China, water hyacinth occupies the major proportion. The large coverage of this weed on water would re- duce sunlight penetration and lower oxygen content in water, which ha… 相似文献

Sister Carrie is one of the most controversial characters in American literature.Thought as a "fallen woman" firstly,she was defined as a "new woman" by some critics later. However, by digging into the motivaton behind the whole process of Carrie's "success", the relationship between Carrie and her creator (the author), the social conditions of then American, it can be found that Carrie has never been free-standing on her thought and she has never found her real-sdf even after becoming a famous actress. In a society dominated by mass consumerism Carrie is only an adherent of her own desires. She also is a representative of all those country girls flooded into cities, a symbol and a sacrifice of the urbanization of America in a time countryside was overcome by cities. 相似文献

Eugene O’Neill,one of the essential writers of the 20th century,was hailed as the“American Shakespeare.”He enjoyed a high reputation in America owing to his special writing techniques.Long Day’s Journey into Night was his last play,which was an autobiographical play to some extent,and founded on his own authentic experience.The play told the story of an Irish immigrant family’s daily life from day to night.Among the studies at home and abroad,many discuss this play from a psychological perspective and Feminist perspective.The article,instead,gives an interpretation of this play according to Cooperative Principle.Through the analysis of their conversations,it points out what principles their communications violated so as to understand the implied meaning of their conversations.The thesis tries to study the conversations between Mary and other family members,and then demonstrate that Mary is the most tragic person in the family. 相似文献

During the years at the end of the nineteenth century and beginning of the twentieth century when Saussure was working out his ideas in Europe, synchronic linguistics was emerging independently, and in a very different style, in America, under the leadership of the anthropologist Franz Boas. Boas set a direction for American linguistics. The school founded by Boas was called structural linguistics. Beside Boas, the other two major representatives of this school during this period were: Sapir and Bloomfield. 相似文献

Not a good century for the Chinese. After dominating much of the past two millenniums in science and philosophy, they've spent the past 100 years being invaded, split apart and patronizingly3 lectured by the West. But in 1959 a short, skinny, bespectacled 18-year-old kid from Hong Kong traveled to America. In an America where Chinese were still stereotyped4 as meek house servants and railroad workers, Bruce Lee was all steely sinew, threatening stare and cocky, pointed finger-a Clark Kent5 who didn't need to change outfits. 相似文献

To make a speech more appealing,expressive and persuasive,speaker has to do much work on its syntax,lexis and tropes,and arrange these elements in a more stylistically appropriate way.As for Frederick Douglass’s The Hypocrisy of American Slavery,it is syntactically,lexically,and rhetorically perfect and eloquent.This paper aims to analyze the stylistic features of this speech from the lexical,syntactic and rhetorical perspectives,so as to argue that the deliberately employed stylistic layout of this speech helps Douglass convey his ideas and messages to the audience,and furthermore,enhances the angry tone of him to make the listener understand how adverse and unequal the situation was to the African American people in the 1850’s America. 相似文献
