He was also a paediatrician and general practitioner of medicine. Williams worked harder a

During his long lifetime, Williams excelled both as a poet and a physician.,威廉卡洛斯威廉斯是20世纪美国最负盛名的几个诗人之一，与象征派和意象派联系紧密。他还是全科及小儿科医师。他反对维多利亚诗风（尤其是TS艾略特），既受到庞德等人影响，又继承了浪漫派传统，推陈出新，力求贴近生活语言。,The Red Wheelbarrow,so much

3、depends upon a red wheel barrow glazed with rain water beside the white chickens,红色手推车,那么多东西 依靠 一辆红色 手推车 晶莹闪亮于 雨水中 旁边有几只 白鸡,赏析,这是威廉斯最著名的一首小诗。本诗体现了诗人的一贯主张，即把诗歌创作深深扎根于现实生活中。红色手推车正是写平平淡淡的一组景象所带给读者的惊喜。 诗歌所展现的是骤雨初歇时农家院子中的情景，他以以一幅静物写生的手法，寥寥数笔，把雨痕著物的澄澈景象栩栩如生的展现在读者眼前。手推车、雨珠和白鸡都是极为平常的事物，然而，诗人却能以极其细腻的感受能力，通过物

4、体在画面中的特殊定位和鲜明的色彩形成对比，使邻家院子里的雨霁天晴时分那番熟悉景象永恒定格在美国文学史上。整首诗读来清新自然，色彩鲜明，动静结合，情景堪画。平凡的生活取之不竭的美由此而充分展现出来。 在诗歌的形式上，诗人也颇具有独创。他似乎认为在描述这些平凡的事物时无需采用大写字母，因此，全诗所有单词均采用小写形式。威廉的诗歌正是以这样的多重性感染着后辈诗人和广大读者的。,Spring and All William Carlos Williams,By the road to the contagious hospitalunder the surge of the bluemottled c

9、eeds. Through the visual images, a scene of the severe fight between winter and spring can be easily caught. In the first three stanzas, the power of winter predominates and the pace of spring appears slow and hard. However, the quickened pace of spring in the third stanza brings quicker rhythm to t

10、he poem. The change is profound; the leafless leaves all begin to awake and grip down in the earth. The revival of life comes slowly but surely. There is nothing in the world able to stop the pace of it.,赏析,这首诗描写早春景象，和我们熟悉的传统诗文里柔美、明媚的春天形象不同。诗人笔下的春天，肮脏，杂乱，“没有生气”，“目光昏眩”，并不能给读者带来感官的愉悦。如果没有题目的提示，粗心的读者几乎会以为这是在写冬天。其实，诗歌开头写的从东北吹来的冷风即透露了春天已然来到的讯息，诗的中间点出报春使者小草已经出现，不过诗人关
