SAT寫作經典例子之莎士比亞
Shakespeare, William (1564 1616 )
Key words: playwright poet.
Born in 1564, in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, England . The son of John Shakespeare, a glover, and Mary Arden, of farming stock. Much uncertainty surrounds Shakespeares early life. He was the eldest of three sons, and there were four daughters. He was educated at the local grammar school, and married Anne Hathaway, from a local farming family, in 1582. She bore him a daughter, Susanna, in 1583, and twins, Hamnet and Judith, in 1585.
Shakespeare moved to London, possibly in 1591, and became an actor. From 1592 to 1594, when the theatres were closed for the plague, he wrote his poems Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece. His sonnets, known by 1598, though not published until 1609, fall into two groups: 1 to 126 are addressed to a fair young man, and 127 to 154 to a dark lady who holds both the young man and the poet in thrall. Who these people are has provided an exercise in detection for numerous critics. The first evidence of his association with the stage is in 1594, when he was acting with the Lord Chamberlains company of players, later the Kings Men. When the company built the Globe Theatre south of the Thames in 1597, he became a partner, living modestly at a house in Silver Street until c.1606, then moving near the Globe. He returned to Stratford c.1610, living as a country gentleman at his house, New Place. His will was made in March 1616, a few months before he died, and he was buried at Stratford.
The modern era of Shakespeare scholarship has been marked by an enormous amount of investigation into the authorship, text, and chronology of the plays, including detailed studies of the age in which he lived, and of the Elizabethan stage. Authorship is still a controversial subject for certain plays, such as Titus Andronicus, Two Noble Kinsmen, and Henry VI, part I. This has involved detailed studies of the various editions of the plays, in particular the different quarto editions, and the first collected works, The First Folio of 1623. It is conventional to group the plays into early, middle, and late periods, and to distinguish comedies, tragedies, and histories, recognizing other groups that do not fall neatly into these categories.
莎士比亞
英國著名戲劇家和詩人。出生于沃里克郡斯特拉特福鎮的一個富裕市民家庭,曾在當地文法學校學習。13 歲時家道中落輟學經商,約1586 年前往倫敦。先在劇院門前為貴族顧客看馬,后逐漸成為劇院的雜役、演員、劇作家和股東。1597 年在家鄉購置了房產,一生的最后幾年在家鄉度過。
莎士比亞是16 世紀后半葉到17 世紀初英國最著名的作家,也是歐洲文藝復興時期人文主義文學的集大成者。他共寫有37 部戲劇,154 首14 行詩,兩首長詩和其他詩歌。長詩《維納斯與阿多尼斯》和《魯克麗絲受辱記》均取材于羅馬詩人維奧維德吉爾的著作,主題是描寫愛情不可抗拒以及譴責違背榮譽觀念的獸行。14 行詩多采用連續性的組詩形式,主題是歌頌友誼和愛情。
