英语作文 描写杭州西湖景色
Harvest association
Personification of Autumn (Currier & Ives Lithograph,1871).
John Everett Millais,"Autumn Leaves".Autumn's association with the transition from warm to cold weather,and its related status as the season of the primary harvest,has dominated its themes and popular images.In Western cultures,personifications of autumn are usually pretty,well-fed females adorned with fruits,vegetables and grains and wheat that ripen at this time.Most ancient cultures featured autumnal celebrations of the harvest,often the most important on their calendars.Still extant echoes of these celebrations are found in the mid-autumn Thanksgiving holiday of the United States,and the Jewish Sukkot holiday with its roots as a full moon harvest festival of "tabernacles" (huts wherein the harvest was processed and which later gained religious significance).There are also the many North American Indian festivals tied to harvest of autumnally ripe foods gathered in the wild,the Chinese Mid-Autumn or Moon festival,and many others.The predominant mood of these autumnal celebrations is a gladness for the fruits of the earth mixed with a certain melancholy linked to the imminent arrival of harsh weather.
This view is presented in John Keats' poem To Autumn where he describes the season as a time of bounteous fecundity,a time of 'mellow fruitfulness'.
