Beowulf读后感锦集

  《Beowulf》是一本由Anonymous著作,W. W. Norton & Company出版的Paperback图书,本书定价:USD 14.95,页数:256,特精心从网络上整理的一些读者的读后感,希望对大家能有帮助。

  《Beowulf》精选点评:

  ●the first dragon slayer,大型直男。

  ●看了好久,中途一度接近放棄……最終還是強迫自己看完了。寫得非常不錯。是一個接近于人性化的英雄

  ●#EL 宗族秩序 what makes kingship 人之将死,其言也诚,贝奥武夫有一个奢侈辉煌的金色终局(无数次跳戏到莫瑞亚矮人王,人活一辈子,怎么能不把支柱挖断、地穴掏空,直到对视炎魔!)“堆满昏暗巢穴的宝藏”作为迟暮隐喻,雄美又细微,神话的功力不只在创造,更见于毁灭

  ●Pending review...

  ●It's a little bit too violent but it is really good.

  ●当年我读过这本书!!现在想想难以置信。贝尔武夫大战monster!

  ●假装我读完了 epic太难读了啊啊啊

  ●但是诗歌古风英语,所以很难懂

  ●有些人说,在最后打龙的时候,beowulf还是犯错了。 但是我觉得他选择单挑是因为他孤独

  ●体现早期英雄主义,拥有基督教色彩。 狠狠夸夸我自己竟然把Old English Poetry看完了~~~

  《Beowulf》读后感(一):打怪进阶的小故事

  第一次也估计是我最后一次读Beowulf是在sophomore的literature movement,当时看到老师发下来那一本薄薄是小册子还暗中颇为欣喜,不料其中满满的古英语和方言使得我那两个星期都在哀嚎中度过。

  eowulf的故事主线无非是男主一路打怪升级,从小反派到小反派的妈妈,最后打败大Boss深渊巨龙,粗糙混乱却很有质感。最后的小龙龙因为杯子被误偷,而找男主报仇的那一段也是狗血,莫名戳中了我的萌点啊~ Anyway,作为一部热血史诗,Beowulf在心情低落的时候读还是尤其振奋人心的。

  《Beowulf》读后感(二):简单概括起来,就是杀怪……

  eowulf是公元10世纪左右用古英语(盎格鲁撒克逊语)书写的一首长诗,不过诗并不是关于当时的英格兰人,而是很早以前的日耳曼部落。故事发生公元5世纪左右,多为虚构和神话,也有部分和真实历史相通的地方,讲述的是生活在瑞典南部的济兹人(Geats)英雄Beowulf的故事,从他早年帮助古丹麦人(Danes)杀怪除害,到Geats人和古瑞典人(Swede)之间的战争,以及老年Beowulf杀龙并死去的经过。Danes也是从公元8世纪开始入侵不列颠和欧洲大陆的所谓的“维京人”的一支。所以我怀疑这首诗的作者是当时已经定居英格兰的Danes中的一员。据语言学家的研究,这首诗最初是用Mercia的古英语方言写的,而9世纪的时候,Mercia已经成为Danelaw(丹麦法国)的领土。

  现存的古英语诗歌都跟传播基督教有关。古代北欧人信奉多神原始宗教,但本诗的作者明显是基督教徒,诗中时时可见对亚伯拉罕上帝的颂扬。诗歌开头提及Danes信奉的是原始多神教:"Sometimes at pagan shrines they vowed offerings to idols, swore oaths that the killer of souls might come to their aid and save the people." (他们祈祷他们信仰的诸神魔能帮助他们),但后来还是亚伯拉罕上帝暗遣Geats勇士才解救了他们。

  除开基督教部分,据说这首诗很好地还原了古代日耳曼部落的世界和他们的英雄传说。总的来说,这首诗的语言以及其描绘的世界和表达的价值观对现代读者来说可能相当有伪和感,我们大多也只能在托尔金塑造的世界里或者The Elder Scrolls的游戏里感受到一点影子。

  《西游记》和《奥德赛》是我小时候最喜欢的两部古代英雄式冒险故事。在阅读Beowulf时,我情不自禁将它和奥德赛作对比。让我感触最深的比较倒不是在于故事情节简单或复杂,而是两部作品强调的英雄品质。不同文化肯定都会认可某些共同的人类品格,但细看侧重点居然有相当大的差异。同是英雄,奥德赛除了具备力量,被特别褒奖的属性包括机智巧舌,善用心计和善于策划,具有韧性和耐心,Xenia(好客)也是奥德赛诗歌里被人称道的优点。此外,在奥德赛的世界里死亡是一件令人害怕的事,死后生活被描述得异常悲惨。而在Beowulf里,惊人的身体力量被认为是英雄最突出的特征之一,此外还有慷慨、诚信、公平(Beowulf和怪物/魔鬼Grendel交手前,特别放弃了武器,因对方没有武器),另外诗中对于巧舌和喜欢心机等特征都做了贬低(Unferth这个人物类似于Beowulf的antithesis,Beowulf批评他只会说不做);对复仇、荣耀和名声的重视以及不惧死亡也是日耳曼式英雄的重要特征,"Wise sir, do not grieve. It is always better to avenge dear ones than to indulge in mourning. For every one of us, living in this world means waiting for our end. Let whoever can win glory before death." (Beowulf对Danes王说,复仇强于沉浸于悲痛;人总有一死,不如趁早争取荣耀);全诗对死亡是一种悲壮但不畏惧的态度。另外古日耳曼非常强调kinship(诗中有一个情节是Geats国王的儿子之一杀死了自己的兄弟,国王对此只能无奈,因为凶手和被害人都是自己的儿子)。诗中也有一些情节表现“平等”思想,除了人类社会尤其是古代文化普遍的等级观念,诗里也强调好的国王应该将自己优秀的下属当作朋友和equal。

  这首诗和奥德赛以及中世纪中后期的骑士小说不同的另一个地方是,完全没有爱情描写。

  诗的语言较简单,没有特别花哨和细腻的描写,不过对武器常有较详细的列举,托尔金的写作风格很多时候就是模仿它(托尔金本人翻译过这首诗,但一直没出版)。有种强大的原始力量,有些场面甚至让人觉得brutal;另一方面,贯穿全文的是一股悲壮的气息(庆祝的场面非常短暂),诗歌以两场庄重的葬礼开头和结尾。

  .S. Geats和Swede之间的纠纷战争看得较吃力,太多人名且不知其义,留给懂历史或/和古英语的学者们吧。

  .P.S. 托尔金创作霍比特人的灵感部分来自最后的杀龙故事。推荐魔戒粉/托尔金粉读这首诗。

  .P.P.S. 豆瓣评论必须要写标题,我语穷了……

  《Beowulf》读后感(三):Fleeting joy, Beowulf's preordained death and its pre-Christian value

  eowulf, the oldest British literature ever discovered, is a heroic myth about the legendary experience of the warrior Beowulf.

  In Beowulf, the joy of success was transient. In the first battle against Grendel, Beowulf took one arm of Grendel and hung it high, but the joy was soon broken by the second attack of Grendel. Another obvious transition from joy to sorrow happened at the end of the novel, where Beowulf’s success on killing the dragon was overwhelmed by the sorrow of his upcoming death. This transition from joy to sorrow might be intended to add the legendary sense of Beowulf and his fate. To readers, it might implicate the impermanence of fate, just as joy and sorrow. Nothing will last forever.

  In the final scene, Beowulf died after defeating the dragon. It seems that Beowulf, as a symbol of heroism, is fated to die in the field. Beowulf regarded fighting against evil as his obligation, and he was questing honour and fame all his life. Although as a king, he should have kept himself safe for the sake of his kingdom, he still chose fighting the dragon in person and winning the dragon’s treasure for his fellows, which determined his inevitable death. However, if Beowulf did not die fighting, he would be identified as a king, not a warrior or a hero. Thus, heroism was fully embodied by Beowulf’s death.

  We can already find the sign of Christianity in Beowulf. For instance, in the story, Grendel was described as “an accursed race” and “lived in jealous exile from the lands of men”. It can be seen that Grendel was more like a monster than human beings, which was similar to the devil in Christianity. Besides, “God” or “Almighty God” was also mentioned several times in the poem.

  eyond all above, this old myth has also inspired Tolkeins. To some extent, without Beowulf, the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings might be some totally different stories. To this point, we can see the influence of Beowulf in British literature.
