摘　　要：燕卜荪是英国著名的批评家和诗人,在抗日战争时期来到中国,在长沙临时大学和昆明西南联大任教,成为了一大批中国英语界著名前辈的启蒙老师。燕卜荪在中国时期创作的诗歌作品,不仅反映了他个人的所思所想,同时也再现了那个战火纷飞年代的社会和历史。燕卜荪这些“中国作品”的细节,通过文史互证式阅读,可以还原这些作品的历史背景,从而向我展示抗日战争不仅是这些作品的背景,更是它们的一个重要主题。燕卜荪的抗日战争叙事,包括他对文学与政治关系的思考和对中日文化关系的思考,代表了他的文化和审美思想的另一个侧面。William Empson,a well-known English critic and poet,came to China during the Anti-Japanese War,teaching at Linshi University in Changsha and the Southwestern Associated University in Kunming,and mentoring a huge number of students who later became renowned English scholars in China.The poems he composed in this period reflect not only his own thoughts and experiences,but also the society and history of that era of war and conflict.A contextual reading of these “China works” may trace their historical background and demonstrate that the Sino-Japanese War is both a backdrop and an important theme for these poems.Empson's war narrative,including his thoughts on the relation between literature and politics and between Chinese and Japanese cultures,represents another dimension of his cultural and aesthetic perceptions.
