中文名: 美国文学经典英文名: Classics of American Literature资源格式: MP4课程类型: 文学学校: TTC/Harvard University主讲人: (美)Arnold Weinstein, Ph.D.发行日期: 2010年12月19日地区: 美国对白语言: 英语文字语言: 英文简介:

美国文学（America literature）表现为平民化、多元化、富于阳刚之气、热爱自由、追求以个人幸福为中心的美国梦。美国文学大致出现过3次繁荣：19世纪前期形成民族文学，第一和第二次世界大战后，美国文学两度繁荣，并产生世界影响，已有近10位作家获得诺贝尔文学奖.
美国文学(American Literature 或 Literature of the United States) 指在美国产生的文学(也包括建国前殖民地时期的文学作品)。用英语写成的美国文学可视为英语文学的一部分。美国文学的历史不长，它几乎是和美国自由资本主义同时出现，较少受到封建贵族文化的束缚。美国早期人口稀少，有大片未开发的土地，为个人理想的实现提供了很大的可能性。美国人民富于民主自由精神，个人主义、个性解放的观念较为强烈，这在文学中有突出的反映。美国又是一个多民族的国家，移民不断涌入，各自带来了本民族的文化，这决定了美国文学风格的多样性和庞杂性。美国文学发展的过程就是不断吸取、融化各民族文学特点的过程。
主讲人介绍：
Arnold L. Weinstein, Ph.D.
Edna and Richard Salomon Distinguished Professor and Professor of Comparative Literature Brown University
Arnold Weinstein was born in Tennessee in 1940 and received his undergraduate degree in romance languages from Princeton University in 1962. He studied at Universite de Paris in 1960-61 and at Freie Universitat, Berlin, in 1962-63. He received his master's and doctorate in comparative literature from Harvard University in 1964 and 1968, respectively.
Dr. Weinstein has been teaching courses on European, English, and American literature at Brown University since 1968. In addition, he is the sponsor of Swedish Studies at Brown. He has been the chairperson of the Advisory Council on Comparative Literature at Princeton University and is actively involved in the American Comparative Literature Association.
Among the many academic honors, research grants, and fellowships he has received include research grants from the American Council of Learned Societies and the National Endowment for the Humanities. In 1983 he was visiting professor of American Literature at Stockholm University, where he received the Fulbright Senior Lecturer Award. He is currently a member of the Academy of Literary Studies and the director of an NEH-funded program in great books. In 1995 he was named Brown University's best teacher in the humanities. He is the recipient of a National Endowment for the Humanities Award for University Teachers for 1998-99 for his work in literature and medicine.
Dr. Weinstein is the author of Vision and Response in Modern Fiction (1984), Fictions of the Self: 1550-1800 (1981), The Fiction of Relationship (1988), and Nobody's Home: Speech, Self, and Place in American Fiction from Hawthorne to DeLillo (1993). He is working in the fields of literature and medicine, with a view toward a book-length study of the relationship between the two, especially concerning the issues of diagnosis and interpretation.

Absorbing great American writing—the classics—is a unique way to understand the history of this country and to add to our own personal estate of literary wealth.
Classic stories and poems of American literature are found in the pages of Franklin, Emerson, Thoreau, Hawthorne, Melville, Dickinson, Twain, Whitman, Faulkner, James, Eliot, Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Steinbeck, Morrison, and many others.
As Professor Arnold Weinstein reminds us: American classics are wonderfully rich fare. America is a mythic land, a place with a sense of its own destiny and promise, a place that has experienced bloody wars to achieve that destiny. The events of American history shine forth in our classics.
When was the last time you read them? Possibly not as recently as you'd like. Why? Not because you wouldn't love it. But perhaps the demands of your daily life or some other reason have prevented this pleasure. Now, here is the opportunity to gain an extraordinary familiarity with each of these authors within a manageable amount of time, as well as review the great works you may already know.
What Explains Greatness?
These works are both American and classics. The course has been crafted to explain why some works become classics while others do not, why some immortal works fade from our attention completely, and even why some contemporary works now being ignored or snubbed by critics may be considered immortal one day.
One memorable work at a time, you'll see how each of these masterpieces shares the uncompromising uniqueness that invariably marks the entire American literary canon.
From Sleepy Hollow to The Great Gatsby, Professor Weinstein contends that the literary canon lives, grows, and changes. What links these writers to each other—and to us readers today—is the awareness that the past lives and changes as generations of writers and readers step forward to interpret it anew.
The course was born from Professor Weinstein's conviction that American literature is our great estate, and that claiming this rightful inheritance—the living past and the lessons we can take from it—should be nothing less than a unique and joyous learning experience.
