序言为了帮助广大读者特别是英语专业学生学习英国文学，上海外语教育出版社从国外引进了这套“剑桥文学名家研习系列”丛书。正如封底文字所说，本系列丛书旨在向学生介绍英美经典作家，而普通读者如果想进一步了解自己所喜爱的作家作品，也会发现这套丛书富有吸引力。
英国文学是英国人民在漫长的历史发展进程中创造的英国文化与文明的精华，是世界文学宝库中一颗璀璨的明珠。文学是语言的艺术，英国文学是英语语言艺术的结晶。英语表意功能强，文体风格变化多，或高雅，或通俗，或含蓄，或明快，或婉约，或粗犷，其丰富的表现力和独特的魅力在英国作家作品里得到了最为淋漓尽致的发挥。要真正掌握英语，必须阅读和了解优秀的英国文学作品，英国文学因此成为高校英语专业课程设置不可或缺的组成部分。
文摘Topical performance: the plays in differenttheatrical contexts
These varying interpretations of the relationship between Petruchio and Kathe-rina are partly matters of academic or scholarly analysis, but they also abut widercultural notions about what is considered appropriate in relations between menand women outside the theatre. Since Shakespeare has such a privileged sta-tus in English-speaking cultures, particularly in the education system and inthe subsidised Royal Shakespeare Company in the UK, there are considerableexpectations that his works should conform to current ideas of social propriety.If Shakespeare were merely a writer of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries,we might expect his attitude to, say, the role of women within marriage, to bedifferent from our own. But because, culturally, we have invested in the ideathat Shakespeare is timeless (chapter 7, 'History' has more on this), we havetended to want to see in Shakespeare the anticipation of our own attitudes:productions of The Taming of the Shrew become, in this critical context, a mir-ror of wider attitudes towards women's roles in society. Or, to take anotherexample, Othello, a play in which a marriage between a black man and a whitewoman ends in wife-murder, used to be seen as a warning against such 'unnat-ural' interracial liaisons; it has been reinvented as a play generally seen to bedisinterestedly about, rather than partisanly enacting, the terrible and corrosiveeffects of racism. We don't want Shakespeare to look like an unreconstructedsexist or racist, after all: that would really screw up our continued investmentin the literary canon.
