英语小说导读(第2版)

  

   《英语小说导读（第2版）》是英语专业高年级和研究生的文学教材，其编写打破了传统的英语文学编写模式。本书由引论、情节、叙事角度、人物、背景、风格、主体、象征、长篇小说、如何写小说的评论文章等章节和附录构成。在每一章节重点论述其涉及的范畴、概念，并选择二至三篇小说进行典型分析，附以思考题。在论述各相关概念时，不但涉及其内涵和外延，还就相关的文学术语和理论给予简要的讨论，并用具体实例佐证。有的作品还提供了英美批评家的评论。“如何写小说的评论文章”一章，旨在指导中国学生写小论文和毕业论文，讲述了如何选题、做笔记、列提纲、起草论文、用引语、做注释、写书目等，有助于学生写出很好的、规范的学术论文。
