Selected Poems of W. B. Yeats

作者 : 叶芝

W.B. Yeats is generally considered to be one of the twentieth century's key English-language poets. He can be considered a Symbolist poet in that he used allusive imagery and symbolic structures throughout his career. Yeats chooses words and puts them together so that in addition to a particular meaning they suggest other meanings that seem more significant. His use of symbols is usually something physical which is used both to be itself and to suggest other, perhaps immaterial, timeless qualities. Yet, unlike most modernists who experimented with free verse, Yeats was also a master of the traditional verse forms. The impact of modernism on his work can be seen in the increasing abandonment of the more conventionally poetic diction of his early work in favor of the more austere language and more direct approach to his themes that increasingly characterises the poetry and plays of his middle period, comprising the volumes In the Seven Woods, Responsibilities and The Green Helmet. His later poetry and plays are written in a more personal vein, and the works written in the last twenty years of his life include mention of his son and daughter, as well as meditations on the experience of growing old. In his poem, The Circus Animals' Desertion, he describes the inspiration for these late works:Now that my ladder's goneI must lie down where all the ladders startIn the foul rag and bone shop of the heart

The English Patient

作者 : 迈克尔·翁达杰

My darling. I'm waiting for you. How long is a day in the dark? Or a week? The fire is gone now. And I'm cold, horribly cold. I really want to drag myself outside but then there'd be the sun. I'm afraid I waste the light on the paintings, and I'm not writing these words. We die. We die,we die rich with lovers and tribes, tastes we have swallowed, bodies we have...entered and swum up like rivers. Fears we have hidden in ---- like this wretched cave. I want all this marked on my body. We're the real countries, not the boundaries drawn on maps with the names of powerful men. I know you'll come and carry me out into the Palace of Winds. That's what I've wanted: to walk in such a place with you, with friends, on the earth without maps. The lamp has gone out and I'm writing in the darkness.

Coming up for Air

作者 : 乔治·奥威尔

奥威尔的作品,不仅有远见卓识的政治寓言,更透出一股浓浓的对人类灵魂的关怀和对普通人的深爱。据说奥威尔幼时长得极丑,可想而知的成为了一个一个不合群的孩子,无法融入他所出生的上流社会。也许正是这种孤独培养出他独立思考和观察的能力,也让他接近下层的普通民众,体验他们的生活,关爱普通人的精神世界。《上来透口气》中的主人公是一个处在低层社会中的小推销员,他一直在压抑苦闷的生活中忍受和挣扎,终于有一天他决定不顾一切回自己美丽的家乡透口气。因为在他的记忆中,那里有一大片一大片的山毛榉树林,树上发着星星点点的新芽,阳光投下的影子在树叶间互相追逐,晾在路边的干草弥漫在整个村庄,还有那个有着硕大黑鱼穿梭的池塘。但他回去之后却看到他的故乡成了一个大规模的工业城镇,整片整片相连的是一个模样的鲜红色屋顶,破旧的被熏黑的院墙、肮脏的河流和简陋的街巷,这个想上来透口气的可怜人最终发现原来根本没有空气可透。在中国日益工业化、城市化的今天,几乎每个人的家乡都遭遇了和小说中描述的同样的沦落。当我们发现儿时碧水蓝天的故乡变成了一个个烟囱和一栋栋灰色的楼房,当我们发现已经无处透口气,当我们在工业化的社会中迷失了自我……也许到了该好好思考一下的时候:究竟什么是我们真正需要的?当付出了一切,才发现追求的只是最初所拥有的东西,会不会太晚了呢?

Paradise Lost Ⅱ

作者 : 约翰·弥尔顿

Milton's Paradise Lost is one of the greatest epic poems in the English language. It tells the story of the Fall of Man, a tale of immense drama and excitement, of rebellion and treachery, of innocence pitted against corruption, in which God and Satan fight a bitter battle for control of mankind's destiny. The struggle rages across three worlds - heaven, hell, and earth - as Satan and his band of rebel angels plot their revenge against God. At the center of the conflict are Adam and Eve, motivated by all too human temptations, but whose ultimate downfall is unyielding love.Marked by Milton's characteristic erudition is a work epic both in scale and, notoriously, in ambition. For nearly 350 years it has held generation upon generation of scholars, students and readers in rapt attention and its profound influence can be seen in almost every corner of Western culture

屋顶间的哲学家

作者 : 梭维斯特

《屋顶间的哲学家》是法国作家梭维斯特的代表作。一个住在巴黎屋顶间(一种贫民窟)的哲学家,从他高踞在上的屋顶间,俯视下界蝇营狗苟的众生,生动地写下了这部日记体的作品。书中十二个分散的故事,像十二首美丽动人的诗篇,充溢着爱和同情的人生哲学,处处表现出恬淡谦挹(yì)的人生观。作者对普通人的真诚关怀和对人生罪恶的深切痛恨,充分透露出上一世纪一个有良知的知识分子处身乱世不肯随欲浮沉的磊落胸襟和博大情怀。No one succeeds in obtaining a prominent place in literature, or in surrounding himself with a faithful and steady circle of admirers drawn from the fickle masses of the public, unless he possesses originality, constant variety, and a distinct personality. It is quite possible to gain for a moment a few readers by imitating some original feature in another; but these soon vanish and the writer remains alone and forgotten. Others, again, without belonging to any distinct group of authors, having found their standard in themselves, moralists and educators at the same time, have obtained undying recognition.
