The Background and Appellation of Byron, Heine and Pushkin

Heinrich heine (also translated by Henrich Heine,1797-1856)17971213 was born in Dü sseldorf, Germany. He experienced the Napoleonic Wars in his childhood and adolescence. Heine was born in a poor Jewish merchant family in Dü sseldorf on the Rhine. 1795, Napoleon's army marched into the Rhine valley and carried out some democratic reforms on the feudal system in Germany. As Engels pointed out, Napoleon was "the representative of the German revolution, the disseminator of revolutionary principles and the destroyer of the old feudal society". These reforms of the French army comprehensively improved the social status of the discriminated Jews, so Heine was influenced by the French bourgeois revolutionary thought since childhood.

From 18 19 to 1823, Heine studied law and philosophy at Bonn University and Berlin University. He has heard lectures by the romantic writer august wilhelm Schlaege and the idealistic philosopher Hegel. Heine began his literary creation as early as 20 years old. His early poems, such as The Distress of Youth, Lyric Episode, The Return of the Native, Beihai Collection, etc., mainly focus on personal experience and love distress, reflecting the depression of personality and the distress of not finding a way out under feudal autocracy. In the winter semester of 1820, he came to the University of G? ttingen and joined a student organization. However, only in June 182 1 1, he was forced to leave the school and the organization. Still in G? ttingen, Heine received his doctorate in law at 1825.

"Like some people, I feel the same pain in Germany. If I say the most uncomfortable pain, I will say my pain. " The personal feelings expressed in these poems have certain social significance. When 1827 was collected and published, these poems were labeled as poetry lines. They show distinctive romantic style, simple and sincere feelings, and rich folk songs, which are welcomed by readers. Many of them have been set to music by composers, which are widely circulated in Germany and are excellent works of German lyric poetry.

From 1824 to 1828, Heine traveled to many places in the motherland, Britain, Italy and other countries. Because of his extensive contact with the society, he deepened his understanding of the real society and wrote four prose travel notes.

In the first part of Travel Notes on Mount Hatz, Heine described the suffocating situation in Germany in the 1920s with a humorous and lively style, satirizing feudal reactionary rulers, stale universities, vulgar philistines, reactionary nationalists and passive romantics. It depicts the magnificent natural scenery of the motherland with a strong lyrical style, and at the same time depicts the working life of miners in mountainous areas with deep sympathy.

In the second book "Thoughts-Collected Works of Le Grunter", Heine described the scene of the French army entering his hometown, portrayed the image of Napoleon, and showed the author's longing for the French Revolution and his hatred of German feudal rule.

In the third Italian travelogue, A Passage from Munich to Genoa, it describes the scenery and social life of Italy, exposes the reactionary nature of aristocratic Catholicism, and criticizes the tendency of aristocratic writers to be divorced from reality.

In the fourth English fragment, the writer depicts the sharp opposition between the wealthy aristocrats and the bourgeoisie and the working people, and exposes the greed and plunder of the big bourgeoisie.

The main tendency of these four notes is to attack the feudal reactionary rule of Germany and expect a more thorough bourgeois revolution in Germany. The creation of these four travel notes shows that Heine has grown into a revolutionary Democrat in thought, and in art, Heine has turned from describing his personal experiences and feelings in his youth to exploring social reality and moving towards realism.

Heine's ideological contradictions and doubts in his later years are manifested in his belief and understanding of productism. His ideological contradiction is the product of that era. As Lenin said in memory of herzen, "it is the product and reflection of an era with world historical significance. In this era, the bourgeois-democratic revolution is dying, and the socialist proletarian revolution is not yet mature". At the same time, it also reflects the limitations of Heine's own bourgeois worldview. 1856 On February 27th, Heine passed away.

George gordon byron (1788.1.22-1824.4.19) is an outstanding representative of English romantic literature. 1788 65438+/kloc-0 was born in London on October 22nd, and his parents came from a declining aristocratic family. He was born lame and sensitive to it. At the age of ten, the hereditary title and property of the Byron family (Newstad Abbey is its residence) fell into his hands and became Byron VI. After graduating from Harrow College, he studied literature and history at Cambridge University on 1805- 1808. He is not a diligent student and seldom attends classes. But he widely read literature, philosophy and history works in Europe and Britain, and also engaged in shooting, gambling, drinking, hunting, swimming, boxing and other activities. 1March, 809, entered the House of Lords as a hereditary aristocrat. He attended the House of Lords and delivered some speeches, but these speeches clearly expressed Byron's progressive position of liberalism.

Graduated from Cambridge University. He is a member of the House of Lords. When I was a student, I was deeply influenced by the Enlightenment. 1809-1811year, he traveled to Spain, Greece, Turkey and other countries, and was inspired by the anti-aggression and anti-oppression struggles of people from all over the world, so he created Children Harold's Travels (1809-65438). His masterpieces include Childe Harold's Travels and Don Juan (18 18- 1823). In his poems, he created many "Byronic heroes". They are aloof, fanatical and romantic, but full of rebellious spirit. Their hearts are full of loneliness and depression, but they despise small groups. Childe Harold is the first Byronic hero in Byron's poems. The most representative, combative and brilliant work in Byron's poetry is his long poem Don Juan, which describes the romantic stories of Don Juan, the son of Spanish aristocrats, such as travel, love and adventure, exposes the dark, ugly and hypocritical side of society and plays the battle song for freedom, happiness and liberation. Byron was not only a great poet, but also a fighter who struggled for his ideals all his life. He actively and bravely joined the revolution, participated in the Greek national liberation movement and became one of the leaders.

From1809-1811,Byron traveled abroad to the East in order to "meet people, not just read about them in books", and also to sweep away "the harmful consequences of an islander staying at home with narrow prejudice". During the trip, he began to write Childe. Haller's travels and other poems, and brewing future oriental story poems in his heart. "Childe. The first and second chapters of Haller's Travels came out in February 18 12, which caused a sensation in the literary world and made Byron a star in London society. However, this did not make him compromise with the British aristocratic bourgeoisie. He has been aware of the stubbornness, hypocrisy, evil and prejudice of this society and its ruling class since he was a child, and his poems have always been a protest against all this.

1811-1816, Byron has been living in a constant emotional vortex. In his popular social life, there is a lot of love to take part in accidental amusement, and the affair of a young aristocratic poet is naturally more talked about. Byron proposed to an Anna milbank on 18 13 and married her on 18 15 1. This is the biggest mistake Byron made in his life. Mrs. Byron is a narrow-minded person, deeply influenced by the hypocrisy of her class, and can't understand Byron's career and views at all. One year after his marriage, he returned home with his daughter, who had just been born for more than a month, and refused to live with Byron, thus causing rumors. The British ruling class took this opportunity to take the craziest revenge on its traitor Byron in an attempt to destroy the poet who dared to be his enemy. The painful feelings of this period also made him write poems like Prometheus, expressing his determination to resist the oppressors to the end.

To Cha Daieff (1818); Country, (18 19), 1820, Pushkin wrote a fairy tale narrative poem ruslan and lyudmila.

Pushkin did not change his attitude towards The Decemberists.
