今天A加未来国际教育李老师带大家来赏析一下IGCSE诗歌作品CagedBird。
Caged Bird
A free birdleaps
on the back of the wind
and floats downstream
till the current ends
anddipshis wing
in theorange sun rays
and dares to claim the sky.
But a bird thatstalks
down hisnarrow cage
can seldom see through
hisbars of rage
his wings areclippedand
his feet aretied
so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged birdsings
with a fearful trill
of things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings offreedom.
The free bird thinks of anotherbreeze
and the trade windssoftthrough thesighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on adawn bright lawn
and he names the sky his own
But a caged bird stands on thegrave of dreams
his shadow shouts on anightmare scream
his wings areclippedand his feet aretied
so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings
with afearfultrill
of things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings offreedom.
结构
本首诗歌共有6个小节,诗歌的结构并不严谨,这也和当代诗歌的特点相符合。第3小节和第6小节内容重复,诗人想要加强语气,在内容上进行重复。
诗歌没有特别整齐的押韵形式,但是在一些诗行中,也是可以看到隔行、跨行押韵的。
意象
非常明显,这首诗歌中体现了两个相对的意象:free bird; caged bird,对于两种鸟的描述也体现出鲜明的特点:
1.Freebird:leaps; dip his wings in the sun’s of orange rays; breeze; soft; dawn bright lawn;所有的用词都是柔和且积极乐观的,leap体现出了小鸟的活波和欣喜,周围景物的颜色描写则体现出鸟儿无忧无虑的生活
修辞手法
而笼中之鸟则暗指了受到压迫和歧视的黑人或女性,社会对待他们就像笼中鸟一样,处处给予压迫和压力,让他们无力反抗,只能忍耐和承受。
