2. Philip Freneau (1752--1832) “Poet of the American Revolution” “Father of American Poetry” He was the most significant poet of 18th century America.

At 16, he entered Princeton University. While still an undergraduate, he wrote in collaboration with one of his friends (H.H.Brackenridge) a poem entitled “The Rising Glory of America”. Later he attended the War of Independence, and he was captured by British army in 1780. After being released, he published “The British Prison Ship” in 1871. In the same year, he published “To the Memory of the Brave Americans”. After war, he supported Jefferson, and contributed greatly to American government. But after 50 years old, he lived in poverty. And at last he died in a blizzard. 3） Assessment Almost alone of his generation, he managed to peer through the pervasive atmosphere of imitativeness, to see life around directly, to appreciate the natural scenes on the new continent and the native Indian civilization. Some of his most famous works, with their lyric quality, sensuous images and their fresh perception of nature and “noble savagery” are directly American. 翻译如下： Philip Freneau(1752--1832) 美国革命诗人，美国诗歌之父 18世纪美国意义最重大的诗人，他诗歌的一些主题和意象在19世纪美国 浪漫作家爱默生、坡、朗费罗等人作品中流传。 作品：a) 《美洲光辉的兴起》 b) 《夜之屋》 c) 《英国囚船》 d) 《纪念美国勇士》 e) The Wild Honey Suckle f)《印第安人埋葬之地》 g) 《奄奄一息的印第安人：托姆•柴吉》 生平：出生于纽约 16岁进入普林斯顿大学 当他还未毕业时，和一个朋友合作写了《美洲光辉的兴起》一诗 接着他参加的了独立战争，在1780被英国俘虏，释放之后，在1871发表了《英国囚船》 ，同一年，出版了 《纪念美国勇士》 战后，他支持杰弗逊，为美国政府做出巨大贡献 但50岁后，他在贫穷中度过，最后死于 blizzard 3） 评价 下次再续…………
