參考文獻

序言

曆時一年半，本書的編寫終於完結。迴首編就本書的契機，機緣有二。一是電-子科技大學為通過英語四級考試的非英語專業本科生開設瞭豐富的英語選修課，“英國文學與文化”為其中之一，且報選者眾；二是目前國內市場上，缺乏適閤非英語專業學生使用的理想教材，以提升大學生對外國文學作品的欣賞能力，幫助其較係統地瞭解西方I垂I傢的文化特徵。

全書分為上、下兩篇。上篇分彆從《聖經》、希臘神話和英國社會三個方麵進行講解，以增進學生對英國文學作品和英國社會進程的理解。《聖經》和希臘神話，作為西方重要的精神産品和文學文本，不僅對西方社會和文化形成影響至深，同時也影響著後世眾多文學作品的創作。英國許多經典文學作品，如彌爾頓的《失樂園》、雪萊的《解放瞭的普羅米修斯》和喬伊斯的《尤裏西斯》等，都烙刻著《聖經》故事或希臘神話故事的痕跡。這些後世經典文學作品對《聖經》故事和希臘神話故事或藉用、或顛覆、或戲擬，盡管産生不盡相同的美學效果，但新舊（前後）文本間的互文指涉，使新（後）文本得以搭建起跨越時空的偌大空間，文學文本的審美意義也得以放大。上篇的第三章 英國社會與英國文學包含八個小節，形成瞭英國從16世紀到20世紀八個主要文學史階段的綫性串結。但該章的目的並非在此，而旨在引導學生透過文學現象，洞悉産生現象的社會文化動因。思維的訓練乃重之要義。下篇則按照文學的三大主要文類，細分詩歌、小說和戲劇的基本要素，引領學生欣賞具體的文學作品。

全書各章由導讀、文本和思考題組成。導讀部分主要介紹該章的內容、基本概念；文本部分提供精選的文學片段和注釋；每章還配有思考題或練習題，以幫助學生更好地理解和消化教材的內容。

文摘

II, Origins, Sources and Development of Greek Mythology

2.1 The Origin of Greek Mythology

Linguists have concluded that some names of Greek deities, including Zeus, can be traced back to gods worshiped by speakers of the Proto-Indo-European language, the common ancestor of the Greek, Latin, and Sanskrit languages. However, it would be misleading to regard the people who may have spoken this language as the only contributors to Greek mythology, for many other elements were added later.

Archaeologists have shown that many of the places where mythical events presumably took place correspond to sites that had historical importance during the Mycenaean period of Greek history (second half of the 2nd millennium BC). 

Scholars thus consider it likely that the Mycenaeans made a major contribution to the development of the stories, even if this contribution is hard to demonstrate in detail. Some scholars have argued that the Minoan civilization of Crete also had a formative influence on Greek myths. The myth of the Minotaur confined in a labyrinth in the palace of King Minos, for example, might be a memory of historical bull-worship in the labyrinthine palace at Knossos on Crete. However, there is little evidence that Cretan religion survived in Greece. Moreover, ancient inscriptions have not confirmed thatMinos ever existed outside of myth.

Scholars have shown that Middle Eastern influences were more influential to ancient Greek mythology than Cretan myths. Greek mythology owed much to cultures in Mesopotamia and Anatolia, especially in the realm of cosmogony (origin of the universe) and theogony (origin of the gods). To take one example, a clear parallel exists in an early Middle Eastern myth for Greek poet Hesiod's story about the castration of Uranus by his son Cronus and the subsequent overthrow of Cronus by his son Zeus. 

The Middle Eastern myth tells of the sky god Anu who was castrated by Kumarbi, father of the gods. The weather and storm god Teshub, in turn, displaced Kumarbi. Scholars continue to bring to light more and more similarities between Greek and Middle Eastern mythologies.

2.2 The Sources and Development of Greek Mythology 

Our knowle of Greek myths comes from a mixture of written texts, sculpture, and decorated pottery. Through inference and guesswork, scholars have reconstructed stories that circulated orally.
