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.
《奉使记》和《泰伊丝》一样,呈现出沙漏的外形。斯特瑞塞和查德如同帕弗尼斯和泰伊丝一样互换了位置,也正是这一位置互换使小说在收束时令人击节赞叹。小说的情节精致繁复而又微妙深奥,每一段都以或行动或对话或沉思默想的方式推动情节的发展。所有的一切,无一不经过精心设...
评分这是一本有关E.M.福斯特的唯一一部文学评论作品。全书共九章,除首尾章是关于福斯特在剑桥三一学院演讲的开场白与结束语之外,中间部分作者把该演讲分为七大部分:故事、人物、人物(续)、情节、幻想、预言、模式和节奏来向听众阐释自己对小说各个要素的理解。其中作者把人物...
评分 评分花了一天来读这本书,个人比较感兴趣的是第三四章人物和第六章幻想。关于福斯特提到的二流小说家总是以死亡和结婚来结束小说这一点,早先读简·奥斯汀小说时就有这种感觉。关于《傲慢与偏见》,人物倒还好,但是结局真是不敢恭维。《简·爱》也是一样。小说人物写出来之后会...
评分看小说,学写作。 这本书非常棒。 这是一部被世人目为既是一部关于小说理论的研究专著,20世纪研究小说艺术的三大经典著作之一。又是一部语言非常生动的散文作品。 还记得最初从图书馆发现它那会的兴奋劲,真的是高兴的不得了。 后来在一个读英文系研究生(好像是比较研究所的...
他的观点很有意思,虽然他不喜欢George Eliot, 对Lawrence似乎也有一点点瞧不上????
评分怀念大二写作课,那时还读过一些片段。
评分才知道自己英语有多差,哎,弄本中文的再看看。
