项目摘要

The purpose of this research is to reevaluate Ben Jonson from the humanistic point of view. Jonson, who had been regarded as the paragon of Engligh literature among the learned people in his own time, fell from grace to be replaced by Shakespeare a century later, the rise of German Romanticism made a decisive push toward shifts in values, from the humanistic to the romantic. Since then the anti-humanistic tendency has been prevalent in literary criticism, and the study of Jonson has not been free from the "romantic" prejudice, when it depends mainly on specialists of Shakespeare who read and study Jonson in their spare time. As a means of normalizing Jonsonian study, the investigator has attempted a reconstruction of the meaning of humanism, which has been irretrievably worn out during these two centuries, by putting it back into the original context where it was shared as "common property" among men of letters throughout Europe. The reconsideration of the humanistic value in Jonson has been done by reexamining how it makes the core of his literary canon in his works, in relation to three other fields of science, i.e., art, history and ideas. The conclusions investigator has drawn from the three-year-research are as follows :1. Jonson regarded no other arts, be it painting, architecture, or music, as hostile to his own, but estimated works of each genre according to the degree they satisfy his humanistic standard.2. His poetical realism is closely connected with the attitude peculiar to humanists, who used to extract universal lessons from each particular historical events.3. His idea of humanism stemmed from Aristotelian-Horatian tradition with its view of literature as practical philosophy, whose ultimate end is to establish a well-ordered commonwealth through the education of the citizen.

本研究的目的是从人文主义的角度重新评价本·琼森。被同时代文人视为英国文学典范的琼森在一个世纪后失宠，被莎士比亚取代，德国浪漫主义的兴起，决定性地推动了价值观从人文主义向浪漫主义的转变。此后文学批评中反人文主义倾向盛行，对琼森的研究也未能摆脱“浪漫主义”偏见，主要依靠莎士比亚专家在业余时间阅读和研究琼森。作为琼森研究正常化的一种手段，研究者试图通过将人文主义放回到整个欧洲文人作为“共同财产”共享的原始语境中来重建人文主义的含义，人文主义在这两个世纪中已经无可挽回地磨损了。对琼森的人文价值的重新思考是通过重新审视它如何在他的作品中成为其文学经典的核心，并与其他三个科学领域（即艺术、历史和思想）相关联来完成的。研究者经过三年的研究得出的结论如下： 1．琼森不认为任何其他艺术，无论是绘画、建筑还是音乐，都与他自己的艺术敌对，而是根据每个流派的作品满足他的人文标准的程度来评价它们。2．他的诗意现实主义与人文主义者特有的态度密切相关，人文主义者习惯于从每个特定的历史事件中提取普遍的教训。3．他的人文主义思想源于亚里士多德-霍拉蒂斯传统，将文学视为实践哲学，其最终目的是通过公民教育建立一个秩序井然的共和国。
