个人主义与华兹华斯的诗学观

Individualism and Wordsworth's Notion of Poetry

以艾略特为代表的一些批评者对华兹华斯的个人主义倾向持贬斥的态度。作为浪漫主义诗人,华兹华斯强调想象和感情,其诗学观和诗歌创作均表现出对个人的关注,与具有人文主义色彩的个人主义有着相似的特征。这些特征表明,华兹华斯以诗人的身份,从诗的宗旨等诸角度诠释了个人主义思想,展现了诗人在工业化革命时期对个人主体性的关注。理解华兹华斯的诗学主张和诗歌实践中的个人主义思想,对理解华兹华斯甚至整个浪漫主义诗歌都有着十分积极的意义。

Individualism in Wordsworth was criticized by T. S. Eliot. Thanks to his emphasis of imagination and feelings, Wordsworth＇s notion of poetry is characterized by individualism, mixed with humanism. These features find full expression in such aspects as the object, the core, and the function of poetry, in addition to the environment of poetic writing. Wordsworth＇s notion of poetry is conditioned by the intellectual and historical context of his time, and plays an important role in English romantic poetry.
