JOHN FOULCHER’s The Learning Curve is a sequence of poems set in a fictional school called Saint Joseph’s. The ancient chestnut in which a mother’s attempts to get her son off to school are met with a lot of sulking about the pointlessness of the work and the nastiness of the children — to which she responds that as the school’s headmaster he really has to go — feels peculiarly appropriate: neither the students nor the teachers particularly want to be there. Using mainly dramatic monologues, Foulcher paints a depressing picture of a school where professional disappointments, an inept and religion-infested staff, and a general air of mutual loathing combine to produce what amounts to a psychological tragedy (with some physical tragedies thrown in for good measure). Sometimes it’s as if Joyce Grenfell’s scripts tenderly mocking English schoolmistresses have been violently revised by a Writer in Residence at the proverbial School of Hard Knocks.
约翰·富尔彻的《学习曲线》是一组以虚构的圣约瑟夫学校为背景的诗歌。一个古老的栗子故事是这样的:一位母亲试图送她的儿子去上学,却遇到了很多关于工作毫无意义和孩子们肮脏的生闷气——她回应说,作为校长,他真的必须去——感觉特别合适:学生和老师都不特别想去那里。福尔彻主要使用戏剧性的独白,描绘了一幅令人沮丧的画面:在这所学校里,职业上的失望、无能且信仰宗教的教职员工,以及相互厌恶的气氛,共同产生了一场心理悲剧(还有一些身体上的悲剧)。有时,就好像乔伊斯·格伦费尔(Joyce Grenfell)温柔嘲笑英国女教师的剧本,被著名的“苦难学校”(School of Hard Knocks)的驻校作家粗暴地修改过。
