摘要

This is a study of poetic method and psychological paradigm in three of the most prominent English poems of mixed genre in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, namely James Thomson's The Seasons (1726-1746), William Cowper's The Task (1785), and William Wordsworth's The Prelude (1805).;Chapter one addresses the historical and conceptual relationship between digression and association in Aristotle, Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, Jonathan Swift, and Laurence Sterne. Digression came to be identified with the poet's thought processes in the eighteenth century, rather than as a form of ethical transgression, a fault of style, or incoherent thinking.;Chapter two classifies digressions in Thomson's Seasons and links his use of digression to the Great Chain of Being paradigm, which was wedded in Thomson's poem to an early associationist account of dynamic and progressive mental processes, contrasting Pope's interpretation of the Chain of Being and mental processes as static and finished in his Essay on Man. Northrop Frye characterized this distinction as a shift between process and product literature.;Cowper's rejection of a product theme in chapter three, and his corresponding methodological shift through the use of digression, is explained by R. G. Collingwood's distinction between craft and art. The poem is exploratory and definitional in nature, and is consonant with the logic and psychology of Abraham Tucker, Alexander Gerard, and James Beattie.;In chapter four, the two-part digressive practice of memory and reflection in The Prelude is an effect of Wordsworth's response to Godwinian rationalism. The dynamic though non-dialectical relationship between memory and reflection foreshadows William James' theory of consciousness as a stream, and is closest to Tucker's account of mental processes.;In all three poems, there is a tension between preexisting and spontaneous structures which is resolved through their associative, digressive method. Lord Byron's Don Juan would be an appropriate extension of this study, and it also provides a pre-history to later developments in stream of consciousness writing.

G. Collingwood)对工艺与艺术的区别解释了科珀对产品主题的拒绝,以及他通过使用题外话的相应方法论上的转移。这首诗本质上是探索性和定义性的,与亚伯拉罕·塔克(Abraham Tucker),亚历山大·杰拉德(Alexander Gerard)和詹姆斯·比蒂(James Beattie)的逻辑和心理相吻合。华兹华斯对戈德温主义理性主义的回应。记忆与反射之间的动态但非辩证的关系预示着威廉·詹姆斯的意识流作为一种流,并最接近塔克对心理过程的描述。在所有三首诗中,既有结构与自发结构之间都存在一种张力,这种张力得以解决。通过他们的联想,离题的方法。拜伦勋爵的唐·胡安(Don Juan)是这项研究的适当扩展,它还为意识流的后续发展提供了前史。
