內(nèi)容概要
為了滿足外國語學院英語系“美國文學選讀”課小班上課的課程改革要求,滿足其他英語院校和社會英語文學愛好者對美國文學選讀教材的需求,我們編著了這部教材。之所以叫《美國文學選讀新編》,是為了體現(xiàn)它與傳統(tǒng)文學選讀教材的區(qū)別。其創(chuàng)新之處表現(xiàn)在以下幾個方面:第一,力求所選作家及作品具有代表性和經(jīng)典性,突出美國文學各個歷史階段的文化特征和文學特性。第二,一改傳統(tǒng)文學選讀教材“文學史+文學作品”的慣常模式,強調(diào)作品的細讀,刪除了傳統(tǒng)文學選讀教材中對史料的重復編寫。第三,凸顯學生和讀者的自主性,增強教材的啟發(fā)性。每單元都以引人入勝的提問介入,替代了對文學史知識乏味的回顧。鼓勵學生在閱讀文本前通過尋找問題的答案,完成對相關背景知識的認知。這樣的編排不僅突出知識的重點,還鼓勵學生和讀者積極思考,自主尋求問題的答案,彰顯教材的啟發(fā)意義。每單元用一個短語或句子概述了認識和解讀該作家的重點(central issue of concern),并在作品前設計一些與所選文本相關的問題(background questions and preview questions),用以回顧必要的背景知識,便于學生的自主閱讀。在所選文本后設計了討論問題(discussion questions),以加深學生對文本的理解和掌握。第四,對所選文本中涉及的文學現(xiàn)象、文學理論與批評知識、歷史文化知識等讀者難以把握和查找到的內(nèi)容,我們作了注釋,以方便讀者的閱讀。第五,為了加深讀者對所選作家及其作品的熟悉和理解,我們在所選文本后還附加了補充閱讀材料(assigned reading),并對其作了簡要說明?! ∮⒄Z文學課對提高學生的人文素養(yǎng)、豐富學生的文學知識、幫助學生了解英語國家的文化習俗、鞏固學生的英語語言基本功等,都起著至關重要的作用。
