Abstract

Abstract:In this paper we carry out a comparative analysis of selected texts of modernists T. S. Eliot and W. B. Yeats and postmodernists Samuel Beckett and Graham Swift to determine the nature of their conflicting perspectives on the future. The study attempts to find out how the modernists' vision of the messiah and of history as a metanarrative indicates their sense of the end. Conversely, this analysis seeks to establish in what way the postmodernists' treatment of pseudomessiahs and history as a local narrative signifies their illusion of the end.
现代主义的终结感与后现代主义的终结幻觉
摘要:在本文中,我们对现代主义者T·S·艾略特和W·B·叶芝以及后现代主义者塞缪尔·贝克特和格雷厄姆·斯威夫特的文本进行了比较分析,以确定他们对未来的冲突观点的本质。这项研究试图找出现代主义者对弥赛亚和历史作为元叙事的愿景是如何表明他们的末日感的。相反,这一分析试图确定后现代主义者将伪弥赛亚和历史作为一种地方叙事的方式,意味着他们对结局的幻想。

期刊介绍: For more than a quarter century, Philosophy and Literature has explored the dialogue between literary and philosophical studies. The journal offers a constant source of fresh, stimulating ideas in the aesthetics of literature, theory of criticism, philosophical interpretation of literature, and literary treatment of philosophy. Philosophy and Literature challenges the cant and pretensions of academic priesthoods by publishing an assortment of lively, wide-ranging essays, notes, and reviews that are written in clear, jargon-free prose. In his regular column, editor Denis Dutton targets the fashions and inanities of contemporary intellectual life.
