My Appreciation of Situational Irony in Shakespeare's Tragedies

This thesis carefully appreciated situational irony in some of Shakespeare's tragedies successively,and classified situational irony into four kinds:discrepancy between appearance and reality,expectation and fulfilment,intention and outcome,the actual circumstances and appropriateness.In the analysis of the first kind of situational irony,especially,the thesis focused on Antony and Cleopatra,together with Julius Caesar,questioned the common idea,and stated that Antony's failure was not because of his passion towards Cleopatra.Cleopatra was only his screen to cheat the world,an excuse of his " face-saving failure".

On Shakespeare's License

All grammatical rules leak. Grammar, as a science of expression, should be more subtle and less rigid; it should address itself more to the speaker’s intentions and less to the rules and definitions. Grammatical rules are no more the articles of a criminal code than a gifted writer is a professional lawyer. Memory is the scribe

Faith and Meaning:A Study of the Chinese Translation of Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream by Liang Shiqiu from the Perspective of Topology

Topology,as a branch of mathematics,studies on the invariability of topological spaces after topological transformation,whose essence is topological equivalence.From the perspective of cultural inheritance and coherence,translation is essentially topological deformation.In literary translation,complete equivalence is almost impossible.Topological equivalence can be used to transform the text dynamically,which means that the translation remains the fundamental properties of the original text.Therefore,people can understand the meaning of the text based on another culture from different cultural backgrounds.From the view point of topology,the present paper purports to examine Liang Shiqiu’s translation of Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream,and found that the translation remains the features of source text by rendering effective topological strategies to realize topological equivalence and promote cultural exchanges between China and the West.

Research on Children’s Game Activity Design Strategies Based on Embodied Cognition Theory

Edutainment,in the kindergarten education stage,emphasizes the game as the basic activity and combines the content of education with the form of the game,thus it also forms the educational method of gamification teaching.Through investigation and analysis,it is found that the current kindergarten game activity design has the problem of improper combination of educational content and game form.The current kindergarten game activity design has problems such as stereotypes,children’s lack of active learning opportunities in activities,teachers’insufficient theoretical understanding,inappropriate teacher guidance methods,and so on.Embodied cognition theory attaches importance to the important role of the body in the development of cognition,provides new guidance for classroom teaching,and opens up a new path for classroom teaching reform.Based on the perspective of embodied cognition theory,the concept of body and mind integration should be adhered to in kindergarten teaching with games as the basic activity,experiential teaching situation should be created,children’s subjective experience should be respected,and games and interactions should be designed to promote children’s physical and mental participation,thus laying a foundation for the realization of children’s individual freedom,autonomy,and all-round development.Therefore,this paper aims at the existing problems in the current kindergarten gamification teaching and discusses the design strategy of children’s game activities based on embodied cognition theory.

Humanism in William Shakespeare’s Works

The Triumph of Poetry over Time in Shakespeare's Sonnets

Since the study of Shakespeare's sonnets came to China,people come to an agreement that there is more than one theme running through these sonnets.The most popular and well-accepted ones are singing for fairness,kindness and truth,singing for friendship,and singing for love.Among all these themes,time,running through these sonnets from the beginning to the end,is absolutely one of the most important.In the eyes of the poet,time is cruel and destructive;however,he figures out poetry as a key way to triumph over it.This article attempts to argue for the triumph of poetry over time in Shakespeare's sonnets based on an analysis to the poetry.

On Implicit Information Translation of Shakespeare' s Works from the Perspective of Relevance Theory:In the Case of Zhu' s Translation and Liang' s Translation

The Relevance Theory put forward by Sperber and Wilson not only gives rise to a new research on pragmatics, but also provides a new theoretic foundation for other disciplines. Gutt applies the theory to translation and gives a relevance-theoretic account of translation. The relevance-theoretic communicative model provides rational explanation for existence of the implicit information. The appropri ate treatment of the implicit information is consistent with readers' cognitive environment and expectation. Human communication de pends on not only the text, but also the inferential context. The adequate contextual effect is derived from the correct judgment and infer ence of the implicit information in communication. Therefore, the translator should match the original author' s intention with target text readers' expectation to make sure that they yield adequate contextual effects with appropriate processing efforts. Implicitness is one of the features of Shakespeare' s works. It is more demanding for the translators to catch and transfer to the target readers the implicit information. Zhu Shenghao and Liang Shiqiu, the two famous translators adopt different translation strategies to deal with the implicit information in the works.

The Eternity of Hamlet --Talk briefly about Hamlet's character

The character of Hamlet is evidently designed by its illustrious author as a picture of an amiable prince, an affectionate son, a fast friend, and a fine gentleman. Yet in no one of these respects is it by any means intitled to our approbation. From the beginning of the play till his killing the king at the end of the fifth act we find him irresolute, unnatural, inconstant, melancholy and brutal. That Hamlet’s character, thus formed by nature, and thus modelled by situation, is often variable and uncertain. I will content myself with the supposition that this is the very character which Shakespeare meant to allot him.

Here Comes the Show

HAVE you watched this? A singer sings Justin Bieber’s song Baby on stage, while his partner alongside him plays the kuaiban , a pair of bamboo clappers which are played at fast tempo and in a lively way to go with the singing. Or have you seen such a dialogue? A young Chinese man slows down his words to ask a foreign student,“W-h-e-r-e a-r-e y-o-u f-r-o-m?” The latter responds merrily by singing a famous Chinese lyric,“My hometown is where peach blossoms flourish.”

An Author Compromised With His Reality: Antonio Buero Vallejo, Symbols and Opposites in Stories of a Stair, The Skylight, and The Little Girls (Las Meninas)

Antonio Buero Vallejo(1916-2000)was an outstanding Spanish playwright.He reflects on the society,their fears,problems and post war crisis.He well deserves the appellative he was given“the consciousness of Spain”.In this article I analyze the symbols and opposites in three of his plays,two of them of social realism:Stories of a Stair,and The Skylight,and a historical one:The Little Girls(Las Meninas).He creates dramas but always with some touches of good humor.Reading Buero Vallejo is understanding the idiosyncrasy of Spain and its people.

A Contrastive Study of the Heroines in A Doll's House and Macbeth

A Doll's House and Macbeth obviously belong to different categories in content. However, the two heroines in these two plays, Nora Helmer and Lady Macbeth, demonstrate similar feminist qualities. By staging an overall contrastive analysis on the personality and tragic life of two protagonists from the perspective of feminism, it is founded that both of them are victims oppressed by the patriarchal system and they all have feminine consciousness against this system. Nevertheless, their distinctive complex personalities and different story settings make the reasons for their rebellion differ in many ways and they end up with different endings.
