摘要

摘要:河流、小溪、洪水、喷泉这些术语经常可以互换使用。小溪虽小，但它也是莎士比亚想象中的小溪和河流世界的一部分。他的名字相对较少——塞文河、特伦特河、怀伊河、泰晤士河、台伯河、萨勒河、易北河、索姆河、冥河、西得诺斯河、尼罗河——但这些名字对他来说意义重大，因为它们能集中展现出它们所出现的场景的能量。它们和许多未命名的水道是重要的自然环境，为人类活动提供了战略背景。莎士比亚笔下的河流和溪流为我们提供了对人物和戏剧情境的持续洞察，成为他作为诗人和剧作家的伟大技巧的一个不可分割的特征。

Sweet Swan of Avon: Rivers in Shakespeare

Abstract:River, stream, flood, fountain—the terms are often interchangeable. A brook is smaller, but it too is part of Shakespeare's imaginative world of streams and rivers. He names relatively few—Severn, Trent, Wye, Thames, Tiber, Saale, Elbe, Somme, Styx, Cydnus, Nile—but they are meaningful for him in ways that can focus the energies of the scenes in which they appear. They and many unnamed waterways are significant natural environments that provide strategic contexts for human actions. Rivers and streams in Shakespeare offer a continuous insight into character and dramatic situation in such a way as to become an integral feature of his great skill as poet and playwright.

期刊介绍： SEL focuses on four fields of British literature in rotating, quarterly issues: English Renaissance, Tudor and Stuart Drama, Restoration and Eighteenth Century, and Nineteenth Century. The editors select learned, readable papers that contribute significantly to the understanding of British literature from 1500 to 1900. SEL is well known for thecommissioned omnibus review of recent studies in the field that is included in each issue. In a single volume, readers might find an argument for attributing a previously unknown work to Shakespeare or de-attributing a famous work from Milton, a study ofthe connections between class and genre in the Restoration Theater.
