Because the subject matter was so personal, the work of several prominent mid-twentieth century poets has been termed “confessional” poetry. But confession is a bad metaphor for what those poets did. The motive for confession is penitential or therapeutic —by speaking openly about personal guilt and suffering, the poet hopes to make them easier to bear. But these poets always approached their writing as artists, and their motive was aesthetic. Writing from experiences like madness, despair, and lust, their aim was to make effective art, not to cure themselves. To treat their poems mainly as documents of personal experience is not just to diminish the poets’ achievement, but to ignore their unanimous disdain for the idea of confessional poetry.
The passage implies that the poets discussed did NOT
选项
A、think that a poet’s motivation for writing was relevant in evaluating that poet’s work
B、experience any relief of their personal suffering as a result of writing
C、apply to their own work the label by which it has subsequently been known
答案
C
解析
label对应confessional,因此选项C主要就是说这些诗人没有给自己的作品打上“忏悔”的标签。选项后面的“通过这一标签,作品随后被人知道”对应到第一句的时态变化:Because the subject matter was so personal, the work of several prominent mid-twentieth century poets has been termed “confessional” poetry,was表明诗歌的完成发生在过去,has been表明诗歌被打上忏悔的标签是发生在之后,对应选项C的subsequently。A项根据最后一句,如果理解错诗人,既是鄙视诗人的成就,也是忽视诗人对忏悔诗歌的鄙视,这说明诗人认为写作的动机是很重要的。B项原文只是说诗人的目的不是忏悔,但是不代表他们没有忏悔或治疗过自己。这就好比坐高铁从北京去上海,目的地是上海,不代表中间不会路过河北。
