談?wù)勅绾屋p松學(xué)詩歌英語
【背景】
詩歌是一種主情的文學(xué)體裁,它以抒情的方式,高度凝練,集中地反映社會生活,用豐富的想象、富有節(jié)奏感、韻律美的語言和分行排列的形式來抒發(fā)思想情感。詩歌是有節(jié)奏、有韻律并富有感情色彩的一種語言藝術(shù)形式,也是世界上最古老、最基本的文學(xué)形式。
詩歌起源于上古的社會生活,因勞動生產(chǎn)、兩性相戀、原始宗教等而產(chǎn)生的一種有韻律、富有感情色彩的語言形式!渡袝び輹罚骸霸娧灾荆柙佈,聲依永,律和聲。”《禮記·樂記》:“詩,言其志也;歌,詠其聲也;舞,動其容也;三者本于心,然后樂器從之!痹缙,詩、歌與樂、舞是合為一體的。詩即歌詞,在實際表演中總是配合音樂、舞蹈而歌唱,后來詩、歌、樂、舞各自發(fā)展,獨立成體,詩與歌統(tǒng)稱詩歌。
【原文】
Amanda: Hi, Mike. What are you reading?
Mike: Oh, these are just some books I picked up at a local poetry festival that took place a couple of weeks ago. Even though a lot of what the featured poets read wasn't in English, it was still neat to see that there are so many people who appreciate poetry in Taiwan.
Amanda: I didn't know you were such a poetry lover, Mike. Personally, I've always found that stuff a little bit boring and hard to understand. All that flowery language gives me a headache! I'd rather read a nice long novel any day.
Mike: I'll admit that poetry's an acquired taste. But once you learn more about it, you'll find that poems aren't all flowery and incomprehensible-they don't even have to rhyme! One of my favorite poets is Billy Collins, who writes really funny, clever poems in simple everyday English.
Amanda: I'll have to look him up. Say, have you ever written any poetry of your own? Some love sonnets, perhaps?
Mike: No love sonnets, but I did try to write some poems a long time ago. They were all really bad. Once I spent three hours trying to come up with a word that rhymes with "panda"!
Amanda: Silly Mike! How could you not think of "Amanda"?
