論文:
當(dāng)代中國國情與世界經(jīng)濟一體化發(fā)展的客觀現(xiàn)實要求全面發(fā)展成為真正的外語人才的素質(zhì)。文學(xué)教育可以為學(xué)生實現(xiàn)素質(zhì)拓展提供最有利的文學(xué)素養(yǎng)和文化背景支持,具有別的學(xué)科和可不無法取代的優(yōu)勢。英語文學(xué)教學(xué)是大學(xué)英語教學(xué)的重要組成部分,大學(xué)英語教學(xué)應(yīng)增強英美文學(xué)意識。這不僅可以促進學(xué)生語言基礎(chǔ)基本功的提高,還可以培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的人文素質(zhì),是大學(xué)英語成為真正的素質(zhì)教學(xué)。
英美文學(xué)教育的現(xiàn)狀及重要意義:目前,社會上普遍彌漫著急功近利、急于求成的氛圍已深入影響力當(dāng)代學(xué)生。無論在什么時候,我們都不能把文學(xué)與語言這兩個概念割裂開來分析,文學(xué)是承載語言最重要的載體,而語言是文學(xué)塑造形象來反映社會生活、表達作者思想感情基本工具。文學(xué)教育難以被學(xué)生認可與接受有以下兩個原因。其一,文學(xué)教育自身的特點決定了它不可能在短時間內(nèi)起到“可視”的作用,文學(xué)教育是長期的潛移默化式的緩慢的“滋潤”。其二,我國現(xiàn)行教育制度并未中分強調(diào)文學(xué)的重要性,導(dǎo)致一些學(xué)校忽視了對學(xué)生整體素質(zhì)的培養(yǎng),課上個人陳述及課下作文練習(xí)講的、寫的東西空洞無物,無內(nèi)容更無思想,更不要說個人理解及見解。文學(xué)教育不等同于文學(xué)教學(xué)。英美文學(xué)作品代表著西方社會的價值觀記錄著西方社會發(fā)展的點點滴滴。英美文學(xué)教育不僅能培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的語言表達能力和文學(xué)欣賞能力,更重要的是他能夠幫助學(xué)生塑造獨特個性、培養(yǎng)文化寬容精神,培養(yǎng)學(xué)生高尚的道德情操、逐漸了解異域文化與風(fēng)情的獨特魅力。
英美文學(xué)教學(xué)的培養(yǎng)目標(biāo):英美文學(xué)教育所致力于達到的目標(biāo)是“培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的思維能力”包括辨別分析能力、批判能力和選擇能力。對英美文學(xué)教育加以借鑒反觀本國文化,進行對比研究,更深一步深化英語語言的學(xué)習(xí),提高跨文化交際能力,達到中西雙向互相交流的目的。這樣,既提升了個體素質(zhì),又為國家貢獻了聰明才智,是真正意義上的復(fù)合型外語人才。
英美教育的措施:英美文學(xué)教育是在文學(xué)教學(xué)過程中通過教學(xué)手段來實現(xiàn)的。各項英美文學(xué)研究成果應(yīng)用到文學(xué)教學(xué)實踐中以深化文學(xué)教學(xué)。文學(xué)教學(xué)在培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的想象力和創(chuàng)造了方面起著關(guān)鍵的作用,這是文學(xué)所具有的永恒、內(nèi)在的價值。所以應(yīng)做到以下幾點:
(一)從根本上改變觀念。首先,從事教學(xué)方面的教師及專業(yè)研究人員要帶頭改變觀念。其次。讓學(xué)生從思想上認識到文學(xué)課程的重要性及必要性,糾正對英美文學(xué)餓課程偏見。
(二)改進文學(xué)教學(xué)的內(nèi)容和形式。在課堂上學(xué)生處于中心地位,教師鼓勵學(xué)生自主學(xué)習(xí)、大膽創(chuàng)造,激發(fā)學(xué)生興趣,讓學(xué)生感受到文學(xué)作品的豐富內(nèi)涵。
(三)引導(dǎo)學(xué)生閱讀完整的文學(xué)作品,進行獨立思考與判斷。大本分英美文學(xué)教材受到篇幅的限制,只是節(jié)選式閱讀,破壞了作品本身的完整性。不利于學(xué)生從整體上去熱愛、去體驗文學(xué)作品。只有完整認真地對文學(xué)作品進行積極主動的閱讀,才能在感受優(yōu)美語句的同時促進學(xué)生的獨立思考能力,激發(fā)學(xué)生的想象力和創(chuàng)造力。文學(xué)是智慧的源頭,一切偉大的思想的結(jié)晶最集中的體現(xiàn)。文學(xué)作品的感染力是不可估量的。從欣賞到崇拜,再到皈依。寫讀書心得。讀書
貴在有自己的心得體會。文學(xué)作品可以為寫作提供題材和內(nèi)容,寫作則又深化了對文學(xué)作品的理解,兩者互為補充。文學(xué)是語言的藝術(shù),許多名家均為語言大師。學(xué)生通過閱讀,受其熏陶。英美文學(xué)課程的考核不只是閉卷考試,還包含撰寫小論文。按照上述思路組織教學(xué),英美文學(xué)課程既是英語語言文學(xué)課,也是一門素質(zhì)培養(yǎng)課。學(xué)生主動參與文本意義的尋找、發(fā)現(xiàn)、創(chuàng)造過程,逐步養(yǎng)成敏銳的感受能力,掌握嚴謹?shù)姆治龇椒?形成準(zhǔn)確的表達方式。這種既有豐富的感性經(jīng)驗,又有抽象的理性認識的教學(xué)過程,將豐富學(xué)生的情感,培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的 意志,養(yǎng)成健康和諧的人格。
隨著全球化趨勢的不斷加強,英語的學(xué)習(xí)已經(jīng)滲透到我國每一個教育階段。而對于高校教育來說,英語語言的中所存在的文化底蘊的學(xué)習(xí)就顯得尤為重要了。然而,在當(dāng)今的大學(xué)生當(dāng)中普遍存在一個誤區(qū),大多數(shù)大學(xué)生認為,對英語的學(xué)習(xí)只是單純?yōu)榱诵薜脤W(xué)分或者是通過四,六級考試,以便于將來找工作。因此在他們眼中,學(xué)習(xí)英美文學(xué)只是英語專業(yè)學(xué)生的必修課,對于非英語專業(yè)的人而言是沒有多大意義的,因此他們對英美文化知之甚少。
新一代學(xué)生是我們民主的希望與未來,學(xué)生的素質(zhì)教育代表著未來我們名著的整體素質(zhì)。這是每一位從事素質(zhì)教育研究的工作者必須深思的大問題。作為人文教育的重要組成部分,英美文學(xué)教育對學(xué)生的素質(zhì)拓展有著不可忽視的意義。英美文學(xué)皎月在塑造學(xué)生人格與精神、抵御物質(zhì)主義侵蝕、防止人的異化與物化、豐富人的心靈世界等方面發(fā)揮著不可估量的作用。
小結(jié):
對于我們外語學(xué)院英語專業(yè)的同學(xué)來說,了解英美文學(xué)教育及其歷史文獻概況是非常重要的。無論是對專業(yè)或非專業(yè)的學(xué)生,英美文學(xué)的學(xué)習(xí)既包括對語言的理解,對文化的學(xué)習(xí),也包括對大學(xué)生人文素質(zhì)的教育。從而提高對語言的理解和運用能力,學(xué)會獨立而深入地思考,并從中修身養(yǎng)性,是十分重要的。英美概況也是一門我們將要們對的重要課程。對于這門學(xué)科,我充滿了濃厚的興趣。借次機會,我希望能夠多儲備一些關(guān)于英美概況及其教育的基本信息,對英美文學(xué)史有更較濃厚的興趣
在這學(xué)期的文獻檢索課中我學(xué)到了很多東西,為我們今后在圖書館學(xué)習(xí)、查找資料、以及將來的畢業(yè)論文提供了很大的幫助。這一次論文,我搜集到了許多關(guān)于英美文學(xué)教育的資料,并且受益匪淺。掌握了文獻檢索這個技能,我相信在以后在圖書館里,我的知識能夠得到充實,以后的學(xué)習(xí)生活會更加豐富多彩!

A summery of first two lessons
From the previous classes, we've essentially get an brief idea of some basic knowledge about the United Kingdom.The main knowledge points can be concluded as follows:
The full name of the complicated country is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.Britain is no longer an imperial country, though its past has huge effects.The two main effects respectively lie in Britain'international relationships and the make-up of the British population.UK, as a multiracial society, has the remarkable class regional and economic differences.London, the capital and the largest city, is dominant in the UK in all fields.England, the largest in geography and population of the four nations, dominant in culture and economy.A British invasions history which experiences from stages.Scotland, the most confident of its own identity, has spent a history as a unified state independent of the UK.Scotland joined the Union by agreement of the English and Scottish parliament.A brief introduction to Wales.Northern Ireland has an active cultural life but has its problems because of the conflicts and the influence of UK.Irish desires for an indepent Irish state all the time, therefore issues accurred in frequent succession.The Home Rule Bill, the East Rising of 1916 and the Sinn Fein Party made Irish independent.There exists religious conflicts between the Irish and the British because of the ethnical distinction.British government organised a partition of Ireland as a compromise.More violent campaign, IRA's violence and Bloody Sunday.In order to halt the terrible conflicts, Ireland and Great Britain aim to cooperate with each other and arrive at a resolution.Finally, the Good Friday Agreement was emerged.Learning first two lessons has laid a good foundation for our further study on the following lessons.I'm looking forward to comprehend more knowledge about British politics, economy, culture and foreign relations and so on.

SIR THOMAS MALORY
(1405-1471)
The OutlineI.SIR THOMAS MALORY
II.Morte d' Arthur《亞瑟王之死》
III.Questions for Discussion
.SIR THOMAS MALORY(1405-1471)
Life: He was very rich because he inherited a
considerable estate in Warwickshire(a county in west
central England)upon his father's death in 1433 and he
seems to have quickly become drawn into the turmoil of
local politics.In 1445, he became a Member of
Parliament for his county: a rather unstable area during
this time because the usually powerful Earl of Warwick,was only in his mid-teens.A lot of political affairs in Warwickshire led Sir
Thomas into his numerous clashes with the law.From
1444 onwards, he was caught up in raids(襲擊)on the
attacks on the Duke of Buckingham and Combe Abbey
大修道院,大寺院 , as well as a number of thefts in the county
of Essex.Keen to blacken his name, Sir Thomas'
enemies branded(給某人加上污名)him “a rapist, church-
robber, extortioner(勒索者,敲詐者)and would-be
murderer".Unlucky or incompetent,Sir Thomas was certainly in prison almost
continuously throughout the 1450s, though he did
escape several times.His pardon came to him in
October 1462, followed by military service in
Northumbria.From then on he kept his head down,but may have become embroiled(使卷入)in Cook's
Conspiracy(陰謀活動)of 1468, for which he was
imprisoned.There, he turned to writing and earned
eternal fame.Sir Thomas died on 12th March 1471,probably in Newgate Prison(London).He was buried in the nearby Friary Church of St.Francis.II.Morte d' Arthur
《亞瑟王之死》
Malory's tale begins with the mysterious birth of Arthur and ends with his equally mysterious death.The central concern is with the adventures of Arthur and his famous Knights of the Round Table.The knights fight many battles and win glory, all of which is a credit to the name of King Arthur.Near the end of the story, however, the tide of good fortune turns.Launcelot, one of Arthur's knights, falls in love with Arfhur's queen, Guinever, and the lady
returns his love.One by one the other knight become discontented(使不滿), selfish, or
disillusioned(使醒悟;使不再抱幻想;使...的理想破滅).Thus weakened, the kingdom is attacked by force under Sir Mordred, Arthur's treacherous(背叛的;不忠的)nephew, and ultimately it goes down in defeat.Arthur is borne away(被...所驅(qū)使)on a barge(大型平底船)by three mysterious ladies of the Lake.Morte d‘Arthur was written in a time of transition.The feudal order was dying.By the time Malory began writing his story, soldiers were fighting with gunpowder, a middle class of
tradesmen was arising;and the practices of chivalry were being replaced(代替,取代)by a new aristocratic code.Malory, in a desire to escape the disorder and uneasiness of his day,tried to recapture lost ideals of the romantic past as recounted(敘述,講述)in his tale of noble kings, adventurous knights, and damsels(少女;閨女)in distress(悲痛;苦惱;憂傷;貧困,窮苦;危難;不幸;引起痛苦或悲痛的事物).This book is very important in English literature.Its Arthurian materials have a strong influence on literature of later centuries.III.Questions for Discussion
