摘要
探讨了希腊以及罗马神话对英国浪漫主义诗歌的影响.希腊、罗马神话在浪漫主义兴起之前就传入了英国.由于浪漫主义作家们向往的是一种理想的世界,而这在现实生活中很难找到,在作品中大量使用神话恰好作为他们试图借助神的力量来改变现状的慰藉.又可以使其作品超凡脱俗、背离传统.神话使浪漫诗歌更具魅力,而浪漫主义诗歌是对神话的继承和发展.
This paper is about the influence, upon British Romantic poetry, of Greek and Roman myths which were introduced to the British readers before Romanticism appeared in Britain. The Romantics who tried to seek an ideal world found it hard to obtain, and thus they had to get comfort by indulging themselves in the Greek and Roman gods. At the same time, by turning to myths, they intended to make their writings extraordinary and revolutionary. What's more, myths have added to the charm of Romantic writings which, in turn, have helped myths reach more readers in the modern world.
