英国新古典主义后期重要诗人托马斯.格雷是“墓园诗派”的代表人物。他的诗作虽然形式保留传承新古典风格,但内容题材却充分表现了诗人的民主思想和感伤情怀,体现了感伤主义诗歌的特点,预示着英国文学史上一个崭新时期浪漫主义时期的到来。 Thomas Gray, the late British neoclassical poet, is the epitome of “Cemetery School”. Although his poems retain the neoclassical style of inheritance, the subject matter of the content fully expresses the poet’s democratic thoughts and sentimental feelings, embodies the characteristics of sentimental poems and heralds the arrival of a romantic era in the history of British literature.
