论文：
当代中国国情与世界经济一体化发展的客观现实要求全面发展成为真正的外语人才的素质。文学教育可以为学生实现素质拓展提供最有利的文学素养和文化背景支持，具有别的学科和可不无法取代的优势。英语文学教学是大学英语教学的重要组成部分，大学英语教学应增强英美文学意识。这不仅可以促进学生语言基础基本功的提高，还可以培养学生的人文素质，是大学英语成为真正的素质教学。
英美文学教育的现状及重要意义：目前，社会上普遍弥漫着急功近利、急于求成的氛围已深入影响力当代学生。无论在什么时候,我们都不能把文学与语言这两个概念割裂开来分析,文学是承载语言最重要的载体,而语言是文学塑造形象来反映社会生活、表达作者思想感情基本工具。文学教育难以被学生认可与接受有以下两个原因。其一，文学教育自身的特点决定了它不可能在短时间内起到“可视”的作用，文学教育是长期的潜移默化式的缓慢的“滋润”。其二，我国现行教育制度并未中分强调文学的重要性，导致一些学校忽视了对学生整体素质的培养，课上个人陈述及课下作文练习讲的、写的东西空洞无物，无内容更无思想，更不要说个人理解及见解。文学教育不等同于文学教学。英美文学作品代表着西方社会的价值观记录着西方社会发展的点点滴滴。英美文学教育不仅能培养学生的语言表达能力和文学欣赏能力，更重要的是他能够帮助学生塑造独特个性、培养文化宽容精神，培养学生高尚的道德情操、逐渐了解异域文化与风情的独特魅力。
英美文学教学的培养目标：英美文学教育所致力于达到的目标是“培养学生的思维能力”包括辨别分析能力、批判能力和选择能力。对英美文学教育加以借鉴反观本国文化，进行对比研究，更深一步深化英语语言的学习，提高跨文化交际能力，达到中西双向互相交流的目的。这样，既提升了个体素质，又为国家贡献了聪明才智，是真正意义上的复合型外语人才。
英美教育的措施：英美文学教育是在文学教学过程中通过教学手段来实现的。各项英美文学研究成果应用到文学教学实践中以深化文学教学。文学教学在培养学生的想象力和创造了方面起着关键的作用，这是文学所具有的永恒、内在的价值。所以应做到以下几点：
（一）从根本上改变观念。首先，从事教学方面的教师及专业研究人员要带头改变观念。其次。让学生从思想上认识到文学课程的重要性及必要性，纠正对英美文学饿课程偏见。
（二）改进文学教学的内容和形式。在课堂上学生处于中心地位，教师鼓励学生自主学习、大胆创造，激发学生兴趣，让学生感受到文学作品的丰富内涵。
（三）引导学生阅读完整的文学作品，进行独立思考与判断。大本分英美文学教材受到篇幅的限制，只是节选式阅读，破坏了作品本身的完整性。不利于学生从整体上去热爱、去体验文学作品。只有完整认真地对文学作品进行积极主动的阅读，才能在感受优美语句的同时促进学生的独立思考能力，激发学生的想象力和创造力。文学是智慧的源头,一切伟大的思想的结晶最集中的体现。文学作品的感染力是不可估量的。从欣赏到崇拜,再到皈依。写读书心得。读书
贵在有自己的心得体会。文学作品可以为写作提供题材和内容,写作则又深化了对文学作品的理解,两者互为补充。文学是语言的艺术,许多名家均为语言大师。学生通过阅读,受其熏陶。英美文学课程的考核不只是闭卷考试,还包含撰写小论文。按照上述思路组织教学,英美文学课程既是英语语言文学课,也是一门素质培养课。学生主动参与文本意义的寻找、发现、创造过程,逐步养成敏锐的感受能力,掌握严谨的分析方法,形成准确的表达方式。这种既有丰富的感性经验,又有抽象的理性认识的教学过程,将丰富学生的情感,培养学生的 意志,养成健康和谐的人格。
随着全球化趋势的不断加强,英语的学习已经渗透到我国每一个教育阶段。而对于高校教育来说,英语语言的中所存在的文化底蕴的学习就显得尤为重要了。然而,在当今的大学生当中普遍存在一个误区,大多数大学生认为,对英语的学习只是单纯为了修得学分或者是通过四,六级考试,以便于将来找工作。因此在他们眼中,学习英美文学只是英语专业学生的必修课,对于非英语专业的人而言是没有多大意义的,因此他们对英美文化知之甚少。
新一代学生是我们民主的希望与未来，学生的素质教育代表着未来我们名著的整体素质。这是每一位从事素质教育研究的工作者必须深思的大问题。作为人文教育的重要组成部分，英美文学教育对学生的素质拓展有着不可忽视的意义。英美文学皎月在塑造学生人格与精神、抵御物质主义侵蚀、防止人的异化与物化、丰富人的心灵世界等方面发挥着不可估量的作用。
小结：
对于我们外语学院英语专业的同学来说，了解英美文学教育及其历史文献概况是非常重要的。无论是对专业或非专业的学生,英美文学的学习既包括对语言的理解,对文化的学习,也包括对大学生人文素质的教育。从而提高对语言的理解和运用能力,学会独立而深入地思考,并从中修身养性,是十分重要的。英美概况也是一门我们将要们对的重要课程。对于这门学科，我充满了浓厚的兴趣。借次机会，我希望能够多储备一些关于英美概况及其教育的基本信息，对英美文学史有更较浓厚的兴趣
在这学期的文献检索课中我学到了很多东西，为我们今后在图书馆学习、查找资料、以及将来的毕业论文提供了很大的帮助。这一次论文，我搜集到了许多关于英美文学教育的资料，并且受益匪浅。掌握了文献检索这个技能，我相信在以后在图书馆里，我的知识能够得到充实，以后的学习生活会更加丰富多彩！

A summery of first two lessons
From the previous classes, we＇ve essentially get an brief idea of some basic knowledge about the United Kingdom.The main knowledge points can be concluded as follows:
The full name of the complicated country is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.Britain is no longer an imperial country, though its past has huge effects.The two main effects respectively lie in Britain＇international relationships and the make-up of the British population.UK, as a multiracial society, has the remarkable class regional and economic differences.London, the capital and the largest city, is dominant in the UK in all fields.England, the largest in geography and population of the four nations, dominant in culture and economy.A British invasions history which experiences from stages.Scotland, the most confident of its own identity, has spent a history as a unified state independent of the UK.Scotland joined the Union by agreement of the English and Scottish parliament.A brief introduction to Wales.Northern Ireland has an active cultural life but has its problems because of the conflicts and the influence of UK.Irish desires for an indepent Irish state all the time, therefore issues accurred in frequent succession.The Home Rule Bill, the East Rising of 1916 and the Sinn Fein Party made Irish independent.There exists religious conflicts between the Irish and the British because of the ethnical distinction.British government organised a partition of Ireland as a compromise.More violent campaign, IRA＇s violence and Bloody Sunday.In order to halt the terrible conflicts, Ireland and Great Britain aim to cooperate with each other and arrive at a resolution.Finally, the Good Friday Agreement was emerged.Learning first two lessons has laid a good foundation for our further study on the following lessons.I＇m looking forward to comprehend more knowledge about British politics, economy, culture and foreign relations and so on.

SIR THOMAS MALORY
(1405-1471)
The OutlineI.SIR THOMAS MALORY
II.Morte d' Arthur《亚瑟王之死》
III.Questions for Discussion
.SIR THOMAS MALORY(1405-1471)
Life: He was very rich because he inherited a
considerable estate in Warwickshire(a county in west
central England)upon his father's death in 1433 and he
seems to have quickly become drawn into the turmoil of
local politics.In 1445, he became a Member of
Parliament for his county: a rather unstable area during
this time because the usually powerful Earl of Warwick,was only in his mid-teens.A lot of political affairs in Warwickshire led Sir
Thomas into his numerous clashes with the law.From
1444 onwards, he was caught up in raids(袭击)on the
attacks on the Duke of Buckingham and Combe Abbey
大修道院,大寺院 , as well as a number of thefts in the county
of Essex.Keen to blacken his name, Sir Thomas'
enemies branded(给某人加上污名)him “a rapist, church-
robber, extortioner(勒索者，敲诈者)and would-be
murderer".Unlucky or incompetent,Sir Thomas was certainly in prison almost
continuously throughout the 1450s, though he did
escape several times.His pardon came to him in
October 1462, followed by military service in
Northumbria.From then on he kept his head down,but may have become embroiled(使卷入)in Cook's
Conspiracy(阴谋活动)of 1468, for which he was
imprisoned.There, he turned to writing and earned
eternal fame.Sir Thomas died on 12th March 1471,probably in Newgate Prison(London).He was buried in the nearby Friary Church of St.Francis.II.Morte d' Arthur
《亚瑟王之死》
Malory's tale begins with the mysterious birth of Arthur and ends with his equally mysterious death.The central concern is with the adventures of Arthur and his famous Knights of the Round Table.The knights fight many battles and win glory, all of which is a credit to the name of King Arthur.Near the end of the story, however, the tide of good fortune turns.Launcelot, one of Arthur's knights, falls in love with Arfhur's queen, Guinever, and the lady
returns his love.One by one the other knight become discontented(使不满), selfish, or
disillusioned(使醒悟;使不再抱幻想;使...的理想破灭).Thus weakened, the kingdom is attacked by force under Sir Mordred, Arthur's treacherous(背叛的;不忠的)nephew, and ultimately it goes down in defeat.Arthur is borne away(被...所驱使)on a barge(大型平底船)by three mysterious ladies of the Lake.Morte d‘Arthur was written in a time of transition.The feudal order was dying.By the time Malory began writing his story, soldiers were fighting with gunpowder, a middle class of
tradesmen was arising;and the practices of chivalry were being replaced(代替,取代)by a new aristocratic code.Malory, in a desire to escape the disorder and uneasiness of his day,tried to recapture lost ideals of the romantic past as recounted(叙述,讲述)in his tale of noble kings, adventurous knights, and damsels(少女;闺女)in distress(悲痛;苦恼;忧伤;贫困,穷苦;危难;不幸;引起痛苦或悲痛的事物).This book is very important in English literature.Its Arthurian materials have a strong influence on literature of later centuries.III.Questions for Discussion
1.What are the features of Popular Ballads?
2.What is the story of Morte d‘Arthur ?
3.Why is Sir Thomas Malory an important writer the 15th century?
