Collection of literary lectures by E.M. Forster, published in 1927. For the purposes of his study, Forster defines the novel as "any fictitious prose work over 50,000 words." Forester's wit and lively, informed originality have made this study of the novel a classic. Avoiding the chronological approach of what he calls "pseudoscholarship," Forster freely examines elements that all English-language novels have in common: story, people, plot, fantasy, prophecy, pattern and rhythm.
E. M. Forster (1879-1970) was a noted English author and critic and a member of the Bloomsbury group. His first novel, Where Angels Fear To Tread appeared in 1905. The Longest Journey appeared in 1907 followed by A Room With A View (1908), based partly on the material from extended holidays in Italy with his mother. Howards End (1910) was a story that centered on an English country house and dealt with the clash between two families, one interested in art and literature, the other only in business. Maurice was revised several times during his life, and finally published posthumously in 1971. Sir Frank Kermode is the first literary critic to be knighted since Empson and is widely acknowledged as the head of the profession in this country. His books include A Sense of an Endgin, his autobiography, Not Entitled, Pleasing Myself, and the best-selling Shakespeare's Language.
1.福斯特说“国王死了,然后王后也死了”是故事,“国王死了,王后因伤心而死”是情节,为什么? 按照福斯特在《小说面面观》一书中的定义,故事是关于时间顺序排列的一个个事件的叙述,而情节也是关于一个个事件的叙述,只是它强调事件间的因果关系。因此,在故事的叙...
评分福斯特的《小说面面观》我看过两遍,相隔有十几年。第一遍看的印象早已荡然无存,连书也找不到了,十多年后,又买了一本,又读了一遍,这么多年中,我也看了他的一些小说,以及小说改编的电影,再读他的书感受也就自然深了一点。有趣的是,这次看《小说面面观》时是和钱钟书的...
评分Tremendously readable. Forster writes without no phony scientific attempts, but the work turns to be persuasive with the pre-Bakthin formalistic aucuracy and understandable categories. The time-space dimension is as simple and classy as Newton, still it wor...
评分1927年春,英国小说家E·M·福斯特受母校剑桥大学之邀,出任三一学院年度克拉克系列讲座的主讲,“讨论‘乔叟以降英国文学的某一或某几个阶段’”。同年,讲座内容以文字形式汇编,整理出版,书名为《小说面面观》(Aspects of the Novel),分类:文学评价。 整部作品单就正文...
评分还是喜欢看小说理论多过小说,因为它们通常都是高密度的审美信息:不仅有对具体细节的分析,有对作者创作得失的把握,最重要还会从“什么是小说”层面上,说明他做出如上评判的原因。不管对象是什么,给事物分门别类总是颇具气度的,那种肃清同时建立一个世界的感觉,的确是其...
很友好的文学畅谈. 对文学框架提供了很好的注解.抛却时间,在一间屋子聚拢所有作家奋笔疾书的想法也是不错,文学作品带来的声音传递和眼睛所得进行对比.也对小说人物的真实性何在进行了简要的介绍,配合心理分析理论的话会更加令人信服.

评分当代小说的面目早已纷呈难辨
评分一來我還是不喜歡讀這類討論小說的書(算不上文學評論);二來內容也確實過時了。好的地方是forster的文筆和以作家經驗出發談小說。同樣是談小說,還是更喜歡毛姆,小說也是更喜歡毛姆的⋯⋯
评分通俗可爱。
