IntroductionI. Why do we have such course?English literature is one of the compulsory and most important courses. However, the English literature courses offered are merely taught at the level of learning general information and developing literal understanding. Admittedly, such courses help them/you a lot in their/your acquisition of the English language. But the function of English literature reaches far beyond that. In reading English literature, a student should have the power to discern how human beings translate their experience into artistic expression and representation; how writers, through their creative impulses, convey to us their insights into human destiny and human life; and how social concern is involved in a specific form of human imagination. In addition, students should elevate to the level of cultivating a curiosity for the unknown, thinking cogently and logically, expressing themselves clearly and concisely, and observing the world around them critically and objectively. But most students are still at a loss as to how they can effectively analyze a literary work by themselves in any of these respects, even though they have read plenty of excerpts from representative works in the British and American literary canon. And they tend to have little idea what role the beginning part plays in the whole story, how the plot develops and comes to resolution, in what way point of view determines a readers understanding of the story, and how the images and symbols are related to the theme. Upon consideration of these factors, we have such course with the intention of cultivating both students literary sensibilities and their /your critical power when reading English short stories and novels.II. Introduction about reading a story1. What is Story? “Yes oh, dear, yesthe novel tells a story.” This is Forsters remark, which is worth special attention, for he is someone in the trade and with rich experience. In his Aspects of the Novel he lists “story” as the first aspect. People reading novels for stories usually ask questions like “what happened next?” and “and” what would he do next?” These questions attest to the two basic elements of a story. The one is the event and the other the time. A story is a series of happenings arranged in the natural temporal order as they occur. Story is the basis of the novel, and indeed the basis of narrative works of all kinds. 2. The structure and functions of a storyPlot; character; point of view; theme; style3. What is Fiction?Fiction, the general term for invented stories, now usually applied to novels, short stories, novella, romances, fables, and other narrative works in prose, even though most plays and narrative poems are also fictional. (P. 83. Concise Dictionary of Literary Terms)4. The Story and the NovelTo read novels for story is nothing wrong, but nothing professional either. “One mark of a second-rate mind is to be always telling stories.” The remark by the French writer jean de La Bruyere (16451696) is also true of the reader. If the purpose of the novel is only to tell stories, it could as well remain unborn, for newspapers and history books are sufficient to satisfy peoples desire for stories about both present and past, and even about future. In fact, many newapapermen have been dissatisfied with their job of reporting and come into the field of novel writing. Defoe, Dickens, Joyce, Hemingway and Camus were among the most famous and the most successful converts. Even historians may feel obliged to do more than mere stories or facts. Edward Gibborns Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire is praised not only for its multitudinous facts and rationalistic analysis, but more for its beauty of narrative style. In telling stories, the novelist aims at something higher or he intends to add something to the mere “facts.” As indicated in the definition of the novel, what makes a novel is the novelists style (personalized presentation of the story) and interpretation of the story.Chapter One PlotI. What is Plot? 1. According to Aristotle what are the six elements of the structure of tragedy?Tragedy as a whole has just six constituent elements and they are plot, characters, verbal expression, thought, visual adornment, and songcomposition. For the elements by which they imitate are two (verbal expression and songcomposition), the manner in which they imitate is one (visual adornment), the things they imitate are three (plot, characters, thought), and there is nothing more beyond these. 2. What is Plot under the pens of modern novelists and storytellers? And how to understand “Plot” in a story? (“”ppt: The queen died, no one knew why, until it was discovered that it was through grief at the death of the king.P. 6 It suspends the time-sequence, it moves as far away from the story as its limitations will allow.)The story and the character alone can not make a novel ye. To make a novel, a plot is prerequisite. A look at the example suggested by E.M. Forster will help to distinguish between the story and the plot. “The king died and then the queen died” is not a plot, but a story. If we make it “The king died and then the queen died of grief, we have a plot. This causal phrase “of grief” indicates our interpretation and thus arrangement of the happenings. In the world of reality events take place one after another in the natural temporal order, but in the world of fiction it is the novelists design that one particular event occur after another particular event. The very word “plot” implies the novelists rebellion against the natural law and his endeavor to make meanings out of the happenings that may otherwise be meaningless. “The happenings” may or may not be real happenings.(So what plot is -) A plot is a particular arrangement of happenings in a novel that is aimed at revealing their causal relationships or at conveying the novelists ideas. A plot is sometimes called a story line. The most important of the traditional plot is that it should be a complete or unified action, that is, something with a beginning, a middle, and an end.3. The dramatic situation in a story.4. The three parts of a plot: a beginning (exposition), a middle (suspense or a series of suspense .foreshadowing crisis a moment of high tension), and an end(a climax, the moment of greatest tensionthe conclusionfalling action, resolution or denouement).Plot a beginning a middle an end exposition some other events climax (the moment(suspense, a series of suspense, of greatest tension,foreshadowing, crisis) the conclusion-fallingaction, resolution or denouement)II.

Descriptive details: the plot of the story?2. What part of the story seems like the exposition? 3. Where does the dramatic conflict? 4. What is the climax of the story?David Swan5. the plot of the story? 6. How fully does the author draw the characters in the story? (Character traits are the qualities of a characters personality. They are revealed through a characters actions and words and through description).7. More works to do: something about the writers of the two stories.Chapter Two CharacterIn the introduction we have said that fiction is an image of people in action, moving towards an undeclared end. Thus character is always involved in fiction, even in the story of the simplest action. Sometimes character is at the center of our interest because in character we may see many facets of the people we meet in our daily life and even of ourselves. Fictional character is always character in action and the character gets into action because it is caught in a situation of conflict and he/she is always provided with motivation: he/she has sufficient reasons to act or behave as he /she does. The character is doing something and the reader while reading fiction wants to know the “why” as well as the “what” of the affairs. (Sometimes a characters motive for an action is not explained on acceptable grounds, for example, the villain in Adgar Allan Poestory “The Tell-Tale Heart,” and thus the reader feels cheated. In this case, the writer of detective fiction who makes the criminal a mere lunatic has cheated the reader by avoiding the problem of motive.) And generally, the action itself is humanly significant and it ends usually in a shift in or clarification of human values, as displayed in John Updikes “A & P,” and the motivation of a character in a storyone of the answers to the question “why”is of fundamental importance.I. What is Character?Closely related with the story is the character. Henry James said, “What is character but the determination of incident? What is incident but the illustration of character?” (The Art of Fiction”) When we read a novel, we read about our fellow beings, and that is one of the motives in reading at all. The “fellow beings” in the novel is termed characters. By “fellow beings” is meant not only “human beings” but also “other beings,” such as animals. George Orwell uses animals to represent human beings in his novel Animal Farm. Lewis Carrol creates many lovely animals in his Alices Adventures in Wonderland that appeal to both children and adults.Orwell does not intend to convince the reader that animals can speak human language or that he is a translator between animals and humans. No sensible reader, after reading Orwells Animal Farm, would go to the pigsty to look for a talking boar. This proves the agreed-on fictionality of characters in novels. So broadly, a character is an invented personality to resemble but never to equal a real person in life. It is not difficult to see that characters in novels resemble people in real life in many ways. They have names used in the same way ours are used, they have hatred and love, and they have desires and fears. Above all, they act the way we act or the way we can understand (like or dislike).But we must bear in mind that the characters are not real persons, but merely inventions, however ingenious. Compare the physical life and spiritual life of the characters and ours. We have to answer the natures call several times a day, but characters seldom do this, even in the most realistic or naturalistic novels. We have to live our life hour by hour and day by day, but characters never do this. They choose to live some time more fully than others, and are able to skip over periods on ten months or twenty years without seeming weird, a feat which we can never attempt. In our life, our minds are a gray matter even to scientists. We can not know what is going on in others mind. But in novels, the minds of the characters are open or can be made open to the reader if the novelist so chooses. The reader does not only see their clothes, but also see their minds. One character may be enemy to other characters, but he is friend to the reader, before whom he can think aloud, to borrow Emersons words. Characters do not live, but act. When we watch actors speak aloud to themselves on the stage as if they were alone, we know they are acting and they are different from what they represent in real life. The characters in novels exist in a similar manner.II. Kinds of CharactersUsually, a novel has more than one character. They interact with each other and make up the story. But they are not equally important or have the same function to the novelist. By their roles in the novel, the characters can be grouped as heroes, main characters and minor characters, and foils.The character on whom a novel is called the hero or heroine when it is a female character. The word “hero” originally refers to a man, in mythology and legend, often of divine ancestry, who is endowed with great courage and strength, celebrated for his hold exploits, and favored by the gods. In the novel, the word “hero” is freed of such noble requirements and any central characters can be labeled as heroes. Jonathan Wild is the hero in the novel of the same name by Henry Fielding, though he is a notorious highwayman. Some critics, annoyed by the connotation of “hero,” prefer the word “protagonist,” which sounds neutral. The enemy or rival of the protagonist is called “antagonist.”The main or major characters are those in close and dynamic relation with the hero or heroine. Close relation does not mean good relation. Pablo in For Whom the Bell Tolls is constantly finding trouble with the hero Jordan, yet he is a main character as his wife Pilar is. Minor characters are those in remote and static relation with the hero. It is wrong to think that minor characters are all unimportant. In some novels, one or some of the minor characters may serve a critical role, structurally or interpretationally.Foil characters are ones that help enhance the intensity of the hero by strengthening or contrasting. They may be main characters or minor characters. In a word, they serve as foils to the hero or heroine. Cohn in The Sun Also Rises is a good example. He is one of the main characters. Like Jake, he is also “lost,” trying vainly to escape the past by courting women and drinking. But during their stay in Spain, Cohn displays qualities in contrast to those cherished by Jake, which makes Jake realize his own problems and finally find a solution, though temporarily. Cohn works mainly by contrast. Wilson in The Great Gatsby works by presenting. Gatsby lost his lover to Tom and Wilson lost his wife to Tom. By presenting Wilsons case the novelist intends to point out the profound cause of Gatsbys tragedy. Dr. Watson in the stories of Sherlock Holmes serves as a foil to the hero, rendering the detective smarter than he would otherwise appear to the reader.By the degree of their development, characters can be grouped as round characters and flat characters. This division is proposed by E.M Forster. Round characters are fully developed while flat characters are not. Or we can say that round characters grow while flat characters do not. Usually the reader is allowed access to the inner life of the round character and permitted to learn about many sides of the round character. The flat character is a “closed” character to whose inner thoughts the reader is denied access. Usually one side of the flat character is shown in the novel. Most heroes are round characters who grow emotionally or spiritually.Chapter Three ThemeAristotle in Poetics lists six basic elements of tragedy. Melody (song) and diction (language) fall in the general category of style, and spectacle is relevant to setting in our discussion of fiction. The other three aspects are mythos or plot, ethos or character, and dianoia, which we generally translate into “thought” in English. According to Aristotle, plot is the “soul” or shaping principle or fiction, and characters exist primarily as functions of the plot. In most of the stories, plot plays the role of principal structure of the story. But, as Northrop Frye points out, besides the internal fiction of the character and his/her society, there is an external fiction consisting of a relation between the writer and the writers society. We indeed have literary works by the likes of Shakespeare and Homer in which artistry is completely absorbed in their internal characters and we can hardly perceive the existence of the author. However, as soon as the authors personality appears on the horizon, a relation with the reader is established, and sometimes there seems no story at all apart from what the author is conveying to his/her reader. In this case, the primary interest in dianoia, the idea or thought that reader gets from the 刘 陈 联 婚（确定案）婚礼策划方案书 策 划 师： 联系电话： E - mail： 时 间：2008年6月7日 方案编号： 网 址： 本 公 司 简 介 本公司为中国婚庆行业联盟协会会员单位，长年致力于中西方婚礼文化的研究和实践，携北京、上海、深圳、日本、南韩、马来西亚等最新的婚礼策划理念，再融合中国传统的婚礼习俗文化，形成自己独特的策划风格，集丰富的宾馆、酒店、饭店、影楼、旅游等相关行业信息资源于一体，向新人提供全方位、个性化的专业服务。我们倡导健康、文明、时尚的民族婚礼文化。我们拥有最专业的婚礼策划人，最独特的策划风格，最个性化的婚典服务。为了让新人们轻轻松松的办好喜事，我们能够帮您完成从策划到实施适合您们婚礼的一切活动内容。使得无论是西式婚礼、中式婚礼、还是中西式结合婚礼；亦无论是特色婚礼（如：草坪婚礼、别墅婚礼、游轮婚礼、空中婚礼、海底婚礼、拓展婚礼、烛光婚礼等），还是主题婚礼（代表婚礼的最新策划理念、使婚礼得到最完美演绎的婚礼形式）等，在这里都能得到最完美的呈现，为您人生最重要的婚礼添上最闪亮动人的一笔。无论是喜庆、浪漫、尊贵与个性，都将在这里一一得到实现！新人情况及婚礼策划定位新郎姓名：刘XX 电话： 新娘姓名：陈XX 电话： 婚礼时间：2008年6月19日星期四婚礼地点：XXXX酒店 预计客人：整场婚礼策划定位： 根据新人及其长辈家人对婚礼的要求、已预定的婚宴场地，以及来宾的社会层次、结构、人数、年龄等，建议采用中西式结合的形式来演绎整场婚礼。整个婚礼及现场布置的风格集喜庆、热闹、庄重、浪漫、神圣、现场来宾互动共欢、气派气势于一体；让新人与所有来宾投入和共享欢乐 的同时，感受到这是一场有档次、集传统及特色于一体、别具风格的婚礼！甚至过后都觉回味无穷；而两位新人经过众人见证、参与、认同的婚礼形式对新人整个人生亦将显得更有意义！ (一) 婚礼前:准备事项 一新人各方负责事项 男方：6月10日前：婚礼总管人选的确定； 婚礼总管的职责：1、负责配合婚礼准备事项的要求（包括新人方需准备的事项及婚庆公司婚礼流程上需要配合的事项）进行协助婚礼的人员的组织和召集； 2、对该准备事项进行分工、设定完成时间及监督追踪保质保量到位；6月18日前：1、 派请贴,通知所有朋友参加婚礼;并落实参加婚礼的人数;2、 新郎准备好结婚戒指；3、 购买喜烟喜糖、水果、饮用水、饮料、花生瓜子、茶杯、水果、婚礼上用到的利事要封好（详见迎亲篇及宴会篇）去银行找好零钱；4、 购买好新房布置物品布置好新房（新房布置：对联、各式喜字、鲜花摆饰、气球、彩带、轻纱、透明胶、绳子、剪刀）5、 准备在男家附近一间餐厅定好婚礼当日中午用餐；6、 父母亲准备好给新人的礼物（一般为首饰）及利事7、 问酒店拿桌位表及桌上的名单卡；女方：6月10日前：婚礼总管人选的确定；婚礼总管的职责：1、负责配合婚礼准备事项的要求（包括新人方需准备的事项及婚庆公司婚礼流程上需要配合的事项）进行协助婚礼的人员的组织和召集； 2、对该准备事项进行分工、设定完成时间及监督追踪保质保量到位；6月18日前：1、 派请贴,通知所有朋友参加婚礼;并落实参加婚礼的人数;2、 购买喜烟喜糖、水果、饮用水、饮料、
