内容大纲
本教材分为“Works”“Selected Criticism”与“Replaceable Works”三部分,旨在启发学生见微知著,透过这一扇天腱窥见几百年以来英文小说演变的概貌。编者萃取各种流派,不同时代,格调健康的长篇、中篇、短篇与小小说共计30篇(部),兼顾作品的思想性与可读性、类型与风格、产生地域等因素。每篇(部)作品均附有题为“About the Author”与“About the Work”的两种眉批,以及启发批判性思辨的讨论与写作题目。甄录于此的几篇小说研究与批评雄文,或宏观或微观,或笼统或精专,皆有助于学生在精读作品的基础之上拓宽视野,升华认识,并初具小说理论素养。15篇备选作品可供教师在教学过程中根据具体情况选择讲授,亦可由学生课后自行阅读。正文后附有“Glossary”和读后感式范文,供学生揣摩赏鉴。
本教材适用于为英语专业本科生与研究生开设的“小说选读”“作品与批评”等以阅读为主,兼及批评性写作的课程,亦可在为非英语专业本科生与研究生开设的阅读课上使用。 -
