2011年11月24日,我校教一楼201教室济济一堂。河南大学博士生导师高继海教授应外语系之邀到我校做了题为 An Outline of British Literature的精彩学术报告。高继海教授在我国英美文学界享有很高的声望,师生都争相一睹名师的学术风采。
高继海教授就英国文学的源泉了进行了评述,主要谈到了《圣经》与希腊、罗马神话,之后对博大的英国文学进行了梳理,从古英语时期的文学开始一直讲到后现代主义文学,并对每个时期的经典作家诸如乔叟、莎士比亚、奥斯丁、雪莱、哈代等的作品进行了颇有洞见的评析,对经典重读、文学理论中的“作者之死”发表了非常新颖的观点。
师生深为高继海教授的学识所折服。报告之后,大家争相提问、请教,现场学术气氛浓郁而热烈。
