论文开题陈述statement

Good morning, its my pleasure to stand here to give my presentation. And this is my ppt presentation. The title of my paper is A Study of Modernity on Jude the Obscure从现代性视角看无名的裘德. This thesis consists of five chapters. Chapter one contains the background of Jude the Obscure, the literature review and theoretical foundationmodernity as well as layout of this thesis. Jude the Obscue was published in 1895later period of Victorian age. As we all know that UK experienced a wonderful period in Victorian age, and which pushed UK to leading power in the whole world. Because of industrial revolution the country achieved abundant wealth, and the whole country immersed in such prosperity. But when it went to later period of 19th century, things became different. Industrial revolution brought about wealth as well as disaster. On the one hand, the upper class lived a luxurious life, on the other hand, the peasant and the working class lived in the opposite one. A huge number of peasants lost their land during industrialization. And most of them had to work in the factories and joined in the working class. Peasants lost their land means that their fundamental survival rights were threatened. While the working class earnings were limited and which couldnt afford for their future development. The wealth gap between the rich and the poor was broadened. Therefore, the contradiction in the inner society was sharpened. This was the social background of the novel. In fact, these can be seen as the consequences of modernity. The writer of this thesis has searched analysis on Jude the Obscure by domestic and abroad researchers. Most of them talk about the tragic factors, Hardys fatalism, and modern consciousness and so on. And this thesis will analyze the novel under modernity and expose s series of problems during modernization. Modernity typically refers to a post-traditional, post-medieval historical period, one marked by the move from feudalism toward capitalism, industrialization, secularization, rationalization, the nation-state and its constituent institutions and forms of surveillance. Chapter Two exposes social problems during modernization process. It mainly includes decline of traditional agriculture, growing wealth gap, unemployment problem and breakdown of traditional morality. Because of mechanical process, traditional patriarchal society was damaged. Orphan Jude lives in poverty, and he longs for city life where he thinks he could realize his dreamstudying in Christminster. Then, when Jude came to Christminster, he found things were different. He must earn money before he could access to the school. Therefore he works as a builder, but his job provided little income. He still lived in poverty. His domestic partnership with his cousin Sue was not accepted by the morality. Chapter Three mainly concerns the impact of modernity on human beings. Most people couldnt get rid of alienation, loneliness. They struggled in hopelessness. First, this thesis will explains impact on Jude. From country to city, Jude pursues his dreams all the time. He longs for city and then scared city. Through his whole life, Jude was adrift on the world. Second, this thesis will explain impact on the other two heroinesSue and Arabella. They embodied soul and lust. Sue was noble and charming while Arabella was a low girl. Though Sue was like an angel, she became a woman of alienation. Chapter Four analyses alienation of emotion. Interpersonal relationship became nonchalant. Jude hardly ever set up a harmonious and amicable relationship with his neighbor and workmates. Modern life made people indifferent. Their inner world was closed to others. Therefore, Judes aunt just saw him as a burden. And neighbors offered nothing but coldness. The love was also changed much. For Arabellas part, love was living guarantee, and for Sue, though she believed in true love, her alienation forced her to submit to morbid society. Chapter Five is the conclusion of the thesis. Modernization is an irresistible tendency. It brings about prosperity as well as many social problems. This thesis combined with text to criticize modernity but never negate it. We cant avoid many kinds of problems, but what we can do is to minimize them. This is the end of my presentation. Thanks for your listening. 课题学术和应用意义： 托马斯 哈代（Thomas Hardy, 18401929) 是英国跨越19世纪和20世纪(维多利亚后期)最重要的小说家、诗人。他的小说继承了维多利亚小说的现实主义精神和传统的艺术形式，又昭示着现代小说新的思想和艺术特征。无名的裘德于1865年发表，是哈代最后一部小说，也是最具争议的一部作品，并逐渐被认为是其最优秀的小说。小说中，哈代用饱含同情的笔调描写了社会底层人物裘德壮志未酬、充满悲剧的一生。无名的裘德自发表以来，已成为文学殿堂中一部经典之作。现代性，自文艺复兴以来，作为一种社会生活或组织模式在欧洲大陆出现，并且在后来的岁月里，程度不同地在世界范围内产生着影响。现代性是一个中介性的概念，它连接了两个互相矛盾的过程：其一是社会领域（政治、经济）的现代化，其二是文化现代主义（文学、艺术）。前者称之为社会现代性，它与现代性计划（启蒙运动）在时间上是吻合的，而后者又可以称之为文化现代性，它是现代化的后果在一定程度上已经明显不尽如人意的情况下形成的，或者说它正是对这一后果的某种反应。在现代性视角下，城市社会逐渐占据社会生活的主导地位，在19世纪中后叶，文人们对城市生发出一种向往之情，并逐渐沉溺其中，矛盾地是，在憧憬城市生活的同时，他们对表面繁荣的城市生活又不免生出一种陌生、恐惧感。这种矛盾的心理促使文人们对于城市普遍存在着复杂的感情。小说故事背景发生在维多利亚后期社会转型期，工业极大发展的同时也产生了大量的社会问题，如贫富差距扩大、大批工人失业等等，整个社会表面上繁荣昌盛，实则社会内部却矛盾、危机重重。在现代化进程中，农村中传统的宗法社会遭到破坏，农业经济开始解体，农民生活艰难。现代生活在人们的心理与道德上产生了深远的影响，那个时期的人们无法摆脱异化、无根的感觉。本文将以无名的裘德为研究文本，阐述现代化进程所带来的一系列问题。国内外现状综述：从小说发表之初所遭受的抨击、诋毁到后来的推崇，其中的悲观主义也成了哈代小说的一个标签，关于小说的研究非常之多，从主题思想到人物形象分析再到艺术手法分析等等。国内外对于无名的裘德的研究成果颇丰，其中都较集中于分析哈代的宿命论观念、小说的悲剧意识方面、以及小说的现代意识等。本论文，将以更宏观的现代性视角来分析整部小说，从而揭露出现代化进程给社会、个人所带来的一系列问题。黄连华在论 中的现代意识一文中对男女主人公的性格和命运进行了分析，探讨了这部现实主义作品中所包含的现代主义因素，并指出男女主人公有着与现代人类似的心理困境和摆脱困境的方式。聂桢珍在 之哈代的宿命观念里对无名的裘德中所展现的各种导致主人公悲惨命运的神秘力量进行了分析，探讨哈代的唯意志观念和宿命色彩。李全福在从小说看哈代的婚姻和宗教观一文中通过对主人公离经叛道的言行的透视，揭露了资产阶级不合理的教育制度、婚姻制度和宗教的伪善等。王亚芳的论裘德悲剧形象的塑造以裘德为研究出发点，分析了导致裘德悲剧命运的事件和侧面人物。王岩岩在其裘德的悲剧成因解析 论文中，运用达尔文主义理论观点分析主人公裘德最终未实现人生理想的悲剧原由。殷企平在 的异化主题一文中，分析了小说中，寻找根基、寻找寄托、寻找归宿是裘德生命的轨迹，并且分析亲情、爱情、内心的异化构成了“现代人”裘德的悲剧。Merryn Williams 在其著作 A Preface to Hardy 中，对悲剧主人公裘德作了一定的分析，并指出社会弊端阻碍了裘德的发展。Shouhua Qi 和 William W. Morgan 在合著的作品 Voices In Tragic Harmony: Essays On Thomas Hardys Fiction and Poetry 向我们展示了丰富的研究成果，对于我们研究哈代提供了有意义的借鉴。其中Shouhua Qi 在其文章 Tragic Effect of Thomas Hardys Major Novels 中，阐述了哈代小说的悲剧艺术效果，并指出无名的裘德是一部典型的希望毁灭的悲剧。Gary Adelman 在 Jude the Obscure: A Paradise of Despair 一书中，对无名的裘德进行了详尽的分析与研究，并将小说与哈代的生活经历联系起来，帮助读者更好地理解小说本身。研究内容、目的：本论文以无名的裘德为研究文本，从现代性视角来解析文本，阐述现代化进程给社会、个人带来的各种问题。小说描写了农村青年追求事业、爱情却最终失败的一生，整部小说充满了悲情的基调。论文框架分为五章。第一章分为三部分。第一部分介绍哈代生平、小说的背景、小说梗概以及文献综述；第二部分介绍现代性、现代性的后果以及19世纪英国小说中涉及的现代性问题，例如工业造成的环境问题和人的心理问题等。对现代性的批判包括：对环境的破坏，如工业污染、水土流失等等；对个人的影响，如人的异化、漂泊、孤独感等等。第三部分简要介绍本论文，包括论文研究的目的和论文大致框架。第二章详尽阐述社会化进程产生的一系列问题以及在小说中的体现。农村传统宗法社会遭到大规模破坏，农业经济开始解体，农民生活艰难；主人公裘德学业事业皆受阻失败，现代化带来繁荣的同时也将种种祸根埋于社会中，无钱无权的裘德无法享受进大学的
