9.Atypicalmodernworkwillseemtobeginarbitrarily,toadvancewithoutexplanation,andtoendwithoutresolution.现代文学的典型特征是开端任意,发展不做解释以及没有结果的收场。

“TheLostGeneration,”
•agroupofyoungAmericanswholefttheirnativelandandfoughtinthewarandlaterengagedthemselvesinwritinginanewwayabouttheirownexperiences,通过“迷惘的一代”人的形象塑造,表现了一战后整个一代人的精神面貌以及一战给人们带来的影响。
(迷惘的一代:
一群离开祖国,参加战争的美国青年,战后开始动手写下他们的战争经历)

典型的迷惘一代:
F.ScottFitzgerald,
ErnestHemingway
WilliamFaulkner
(((迷惘的一代”指的是第一次世界大战后成长起来的年轻人(包括海明威在内),他们之所以对生活失去信念是由于战争的创伤,但他们并未因此而失去对人性的渴望。
“垮掉的一代”则不同,他们中的许多人已经丧失了对人性的最基本的理解,用“垮掉的一代”作为称谓也表达了公众对他们的失望和不满。
