翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク A Description of a City Shower ： ウィキペディア英語版 A Description of a City Shower "A Description of a City Shower" is a 1710 poem by Anglo-Irish poet Jonathan Swift. First appearing in the ''Tatler'' magazine in October of that same year, the poem was considered his best poem. Swift agreed: "They think 'tis the best thing I ever wrote, and I think so too".〔Fairer; Gerrard, p. 74〕 Bonamy Dobrée found it (and Swift's other ''Tatler'' verse, "A Description of the Morning") "emancipatory, defiantly anti-poetic... describing nothing that the common run of poets would seize on."〔Dobrée, ''English Literature in the Early Eighteenth Century 1700-1740'' (Oxford: Clarendon Press) 1959:466.〕 The text concerns modern, urban life, and the artificiality of that existence. The poem also parodies and imitates, in certain parts of its structure and diction, Virgil's ''Georgics''. Other authorities suggest that the poem seeks to mock both the style and character of the way that then-contemporary city life was portrayed by other Augustan writers and poets.〔Allen, p.35〕 "A Description of a City Shower" is cited as part of the inspiration for William Hogarth's ''Four Times of the Day'', among other works. One of Hogarth's most famous works, ''Four Times of the Day'' sheds a humorous light on contemporary life in London, the mores of the various social classes of the city, and the mundane business of everyday life. Among the other works said to have provided Hogarth with inspiration for his series is the aforementioned "A Description of the Morning", published in the ''Tatler'' in 1709, as well as John Gay's "Trivia".〔Paulson, p.140–9〕 ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「A Description of a City Shower」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
