"The arts (painting, music, literature, etc.) reveal the otherwise hidden ideas and impulses of a society."
I fundamentally agree that arts would reflect the hidden ideas and impulses //impulses// of a society in that our forefathers created brilliant art civilization by whom the society was propeled //propelled// along the path of advance to the greatest social upheavel. //该词我觉得是贬义词// works contains our ancestor's cogitation about the law of the social development. Hence arts serve as a mirror which refract the secret ideas and impulses of a society. However, sometimes minority of art works bear no meanings, even unfavorable information, that they //which比较好?// would distort our sight and mind//这个搭配不是很好// for doing research in society.
Art, as we know, is the essence of human intellect which holds abundance of characteristics for a special era. By research //researching// the art we could unearth //explore?// those unknowns of a society in a historical context in that influenced by the subliminal rules of one specific society the artists would instill their works with the consciousness of the hidden ideas and impulses of that society. Ostensibly, the art works would reflect the populace's preferences and their emotions, while from the internal world it could bring light for us to discover the trend of the society. For example, many Native American Indians expressed themselves with their artwork carved into totem poles. This is //a// kind of expressions of worship to the awe-inspiring nature that different figures in //in 应该不要吧// on the totem poles stand for different culture and custom backgrounds between Indians tribes. One tribe might exhibit eagle worship for its acute sight and dexterous flight, while another revere//s// horse for its running power and endurance. Such kind of art form of totem which represents one tribe could reveal the behind desire and motivation of the worship. //最后一句可以改成By representing culture and custom of the tribe, such art form reveals the hidden desire and motivation of worship ?//
Another suitable case would be the literary works. The fact that most of these works are fictional would not impede us interpreting the concept and inspiration of the society in which the author produce the works. which stress on alliteration and highly accuracy that implicitly express the poet's mood.
// Tang poetry, one of the most famous literary works in Chinese history, was composed by the poets to implicitly express their moods with the form of alliteration and highly accuracy//
Many of these poets had suffered from political burdens and other persecutions that only by poems could them imply//很贴切// their view of the society. Hence, while reading their poems, on the surface we could interpret the custom and ethics of the society of their era; however, the pattern of the hidden thoughts and impetus of the society would be grasped with carefully appreciation of the inner meaning of the poems. With the discussion of these two cases we may arrive at the point that arts could probably reveal the otherwise hidden ideas and impulses of a society for the reason that nt of the society. // they are quintessences of human civilization, witnessing and recording the development//
Yet we should wary that some kinds of arts, fraught with spiritual morbid trashes, would distract us astray from understanding our society. For instance, nowadays some music is filled with decadent thoughts and their lyrics are coarse that these bungled arts would mislead the youth to give them //替换成with// the illusion that the society is irremediable. In my daily life experiences, I notice that most of the rap songs express ideas about sex, violence, money worship, and other immoral behaviors which contradict the orthodox opinions of the society. Besides, some movies, TV programs and the forth would also illustrate this trend. While these worthless, even deleterious "arts" can not be representative of the essence of the ideas and impulses of the society, on the contrary, they would threat the stableness and harmony of it. Hence, we should keep vigilant of these art rubbishes for the reason that they would always blind our sight and distort our mind.
你很喜欢RAP, 呵呵。过去也爱听EMINEM.
In sum, to some degree, the statement of the function and effectiveness of arts in revealing the otherwise hidden ideas and impulses of a society is correct. Nevertheless, we could better interpret the essence of our society from the perspectives of the art works' authors those who had profound comprehension of the society. Yet art trashes should be avoided and erased in that they could not be representative of the thoughts and motivations of the society; even worse, they may serve as obstacles which hamper the progress of understanding the society.
我的修改主要是字词上的,逻辑上的我也把握不好,希望你们组的高手能指点
图腾文化和唐诗都很有代表性,能用中国的例子讨论让人感到很自豪,值得学习!同时分析了有些艺术不但没有展现社会的思想,反而有不良影响。
我也是第一次写,花了大概两个小时找资料,感觉就是套用模板,而且字数也很少。请你或你们组的成员也帮我分析一下,那里可以改进。谢谢:)
我想是不是可以把一些例子背出来?? |
