托马斯·格雷是18世纪英国伤感主义最具有代表的诗人之一,其代表作《墓园挽歌》在18世纪把伤感主义诗推向了历史的最高潮。托马斯·格雷的诗在形式和内容上与古典主义、伤感主义和浪漫主义相结合,同时又与人文主义精神相融合,在当时的那个年代引起了很大的轰动。就人文主义关怀精神来说,托马斯·格雷在《墓园挽歌》诗中对其精神的见解和分析已经超过了他所生活的那个年代。至今为止,当我们再次解读这首诗时足以发现此诗在人文主义精神方面对我们是有重大启发作用。 Thomas Gray, one of the most representative poets of British sadism in the 18th century, put the sadism poem to the climax of history in his eighteenth century. Thomas Gray’s poetry in the form and content with the combination of classicism, sentimentalism and romanticism, but also with the spirit of humanism fusion, at that time caused a great sensation. As far as the humanist spirit of care is concerned, Thomas Gray’s spiritual insights and analysis in the poem “The Elegy for the Cemetery” have surpassed the one he lived in. So far, when we read this poem again we can find that this poem is of great enlightenment to us in the spirit of humanism.
