Social conventions sometimes are regarded as valuable treasure in some culture. But it can also lead to human tragedy. The Arti cle here tried to look into the social and religious conventions behind the human tragedy in Richard Jefferies’ short story "the Acorn Gath erer" and how those conventions and people’s belief affect the relationship between the grandmother and her grandson in the short story. The article discussed the underlying causes to the tragedy from three aspects, the outside pressure, the inner factors and the problem of the society. It attempted to explain how the social pressure influenced the attitude and action of the grandmother, how her inner belief com pelled herself to maltreat the boy and how the social convention and religious belief made the society seemingly pitiless and indifferent. It is also indicated that social and religious conventions still have a lasting effect on how people think and act in today’s world.  相似文献

In his short story collection Lost in the Funhouse, John Barth attempts to deal with the existential plights that fictional writing and human beings are faced with."Title", the most postmodern story in the collection, centers on the issue of"filling in the blank,"in which Barth leads readers to solve the problem and create the story with him. To examine Barth’s postmodern experiment in"Title", this paper mainly focuses on the following three questions: what is the"blank"? How to fill in it? Why to fill in it in that way? By answering them, we may see how Barth reconciles the conflict between the urgency of"filling in the blank"and the failure of filling them.  相似文献

"The Boarding House"is a short story written by James Joyce. The protagonist Mr. Doran is trapped and subjected to the marriage with the heroine Polly under the power of various forces. His subjection is a result of the well-designed trap of the family, the pressure of social convention and his self-subjection. This paper analyzes how those three forces supervise him and force him to subject, using Michel Foucault'panopticism and discipline and punishment, and reflecting men's spiritual paralysis under the manipulation of power.  相似文献

舞剧,顾名思义,即舞蹈的剧,是剧就必然要有事,无事形不成剧,而这事是什么样的事,怎么说这个事,却似乎是舞剧最关键又最困难的一件事。笔者认为目前大多数舞剧对于这件难事解决得确实很"难",而且由于难而解决得相较于其他艺术门类来说就显得有些相形见拙,不那么"个性"和"有意味"。本文从舞剧所叙之事和怎样叙有情感之事来说明舞剧是有意味的情感形式,由带有个人情感的个人观点和视角产生独特而个人的舞剧结构、形式和风格,即我们常常说的有意味的形式。  相似文献
