3、untenance,having a mingled air of fun and arrogance.From his Herculean frame and great powers of limb he had received the nickname of BROM BONES,by which he was universally known.He was famed for great knowledge and skill in horsemanship,being as dexterous on horseback as a Tartar.He was foremost at
4、 all races and cock fights;and,with the ascendancy which bodily strength always acquires in rustic life,was the umpire in all disputes,setting his hat on one side,and giving his decisions with an air and tone that admitted of no gainsay or appeal.He was always ready for either a fight or a frolic;bu
5、t had more mischief than ill-will in his composition;and with all his overbearing roughness,there was a strong dash of waggish good humor at bottom.”（P17）Brom Bones:He is another man interested in Katrina.He is the exact opposite of Ichabod:strong,handsome,outgoing and rugged.He is known for his hor
6、seman skills.“Brom,who had a degree of rough chivalry in his nature,would fain have carried matters to open warfare and have settled their pretensions to the lady,according to the mode of those most concise and simple reasoners,the knights-errant of yore,by single combat”(P21)It shows his way to fla

12、methods he used were a little unfair.Moreover,a man like him is more suitable to live in the country.“一个难以对付，四处吼叫。横行霸道的恶少年布鲁姆是这村庄的英雄，以力大鲁莽和傲慢而臭名昭著。”他也是一个既滑稽又傲慢的人物。他有“一种可笑与傲慢混杂的气质”而且“总是要么打架斗殴要么狂欢聚会”但是，他的所作所为更多的是一种淘气而不是恶意伤人。”他骑术高超。“他是最优秀的赛手和斗鸡手”。“每当在附近发生疯狂的恶作剧和村里的殴斗。村民们总是摇摇头，敢保证又是他指使干的。”碘型的开拓者形象就是趾高气扬的自吹自擂者、出色的猎手和强壮的男人、胆量过人的恶作剧制造者。这种开拓者的形象早已在口头传说中建立起来了。欧文只是给口头传说中的人物的性格增添了新内容。布鲁姆波尼就是欧文塑造的现实中的荷兰开拓者。虽然他与美国本土民间传统中的人物相冲突，但他吻合和超越了一个传统意义上的美国佬。
