项目摘要

This study examines the works of Elizabeth Bowen, an Anglo-Irish writer, and those of several British writers including Maria Edgeworth, Jane Austen, Virginia Woolf, Henry James, and E.M.Forster. The culture and literature of the Anglo-Irish "big house" are characteristic of Bowen's art. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between "the culture and literature of the big house" and "the culture of the country house in British literature" in order to reassess Bowen's works, and to give a new frame of reference to the studies of Woolf, James, and Forster.As Bowen has succeeded the two great traditions of Edgeworth's big house novels and Austen's novels of manners, the head investigator compares Edgeworth's and Austen's novels to discover the characteristics of the culture of the big house and that of the country house. It is argued that the country house in Bowen's literature symbolizes historical continuity, and that the country house in Woolf's literature is also of importance in her conception of history. The investigator demonstrates that James's and Forster's works show a sense of values similar to Bowen's consciousness of tradition and her affection for the tradition, which form a significant core of Bowen's art. She also argues that James could have the same idea as Bowen's in that "fantasies and recollections of the past make it possible for people to escape from cruel realities and fill their empty hearts with something," and that Forster recognizes "the power of the place," especially that of "the traditional countryside in England," as well as the power of an old house.

本研究探讨了英国爱尔兰作家伊丽莎白·鲍文的作品，以及玛丽亚·埃奇沃思、简·奥斯汀、弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫、亨利·詹姆斯和E·M·福斯特等英国作家的作品。英国-爱尔兰“大房子”的文化和文学是鲍文艺术的特色。本研究旨在探讨“大房子的文化和文学”与“英国文学中的乡间别墅文化”之间的关系，以重新评价鲍文的作品，并为伍尔夫、詹姆斯、由于鲍文继承了埃奇沃思的大房子小说和奥斯汀的风俗小说两大传统，本文通过对埃奇沃思和奥斯汀的小说进行比较，揭示了大房子文化和乡村房子文化的特点。伯恩文学中的乡间别墅象征着历史的连续性，伍尔夫文学中的乡间别墅在她的历史观中也具有重要意义。作者认为，詹姆斯和福斯特的作品所表现出的价值观与鲍文的传统意识和对传统的热爱是相似的，这是鲍文艺术的一个重要核心。作者还认为，詹姆斯可能与鲍文有着相同的想法，即“对过去的幻想和回忆使人们有可能逃离残酷的现实，用某种东西来填补空虚的心灵，福斯特认识到“地方的力量”，特别是“英国传统乡村”的力量，以及老房子的力量。
