Both an exploration of character and a reflection on the meaning of history, "Memoirs of Hadrian" has received international acclaim since its first publication in France in 1951. In it, Marguerite Yourcenar reimagines the Emperor Hadrian's arduous boyhood, his triumphs and reversals, and finally, as emperor, his gradual reordering of a war-torn world, writing with the imaginative insight of a great writer of the twentieth century while crafting a prose style as elegant and precise as those of the Latin stylists of Hadrian's own era.
The first woman to be elected to The French Academy, the multi talented personality of Marguerite Yourcenar was a novelist, essayist, playwright, short story writer, poet and translator. She was an artist at reconstructing historical eras in the form of her novels. Her novels, dealing with modern issues set in historical eras won her immense fame as a writer.
The inheritance Yourcenar received after the death of her father, allowed her to devote herself to traveling and literary pursuits and love affairs on the Paris artistic scene. She joined a bohemian crowd of artists, moving between Paris, Lausanne, Athens, Istanbul, Brussels and the Greek islands, which inspired her travel writing "Nouvelles Orientales" and "Feux" based on Greek mythology.
Yourcenar was among the first female writers to live an openly lesbian lifestyle, and she moved to the USA in 1939 to live with her partner Grace Frick. The couple were to remain together until Frick’s death in 1979. She taught French History and History of Art, and continued to write: her novel "Mémoires d’Hadrien" was published in 1951 and enjoyed success with both the critics and the public worldwide.
She was an inveterate traveller and remained active right up to her death in 1987. She was a militant vegetarian and defender of the rights of animals and inspired Brigitte Bardot to set up her animal sanctuary.

评分Mutterings from half wakened dreams. 'I was reaching the age when each beauteous place recalls another, fairer still, when each delight is weighted with the memory of past joys. I was willing to yield to nostalgia, that melancholy residue of desire.' '… man existing alone and yet closely bound with all being.'
评分去年读了台译本后来补了英文,行云流水的文字有一种极致的古典美。未来几年的愿望是学好法语去读法语版,不能站在法语的语境去读Yourcenar太可惜啦;想去荒山岛,想在荒山岛用一个冬天读Youcenar | 补充:瞄了一眼法文版,感觉英翻比法文原版确实要稍逊一些。。
评分希腊游后遗症发作中……
评分看完了!力荐! 刚看到第二章,真好看啊!“I hoped to discover the hinge where our wil meets and moves with destiny, and where discipline strengthens, instead of restraining." 这不就是庄子么?
应该打〇星。如果文字拙劣尚可算作译者之“过”,抄袭就是译者之“罪”了(详见http://book.douban.com/review/3216897/)陈筱卿这本书,是对原作的谋杀,对读者则涉嫌诈骗(若抄袭成立的话)。我多年前将他的书跟英译逐段对比,越看越生气,写到这里仍然不由得心头火起。这样...
评分A famous book, but not good for me. Mostly a bit of this and that, here and there, love, war, laws, travels, mourning, old age. It lacks focus and depth. For me, the most interesting part is his meditation about death. It rings genuine feelings. But again...

评分如果有兴致可以仔细比较一下这版和东方、三联那版,其实也不需要仔细,稍微翻一下,便高下立判。这版语言优雅,富有韵味,更能体现原文的气质。陈那版就不说啥了,居然还是翻译过很多世界名著的。翻译界之混乱,可见一斑。 不说版本,光看此书,绝对值得一读。她的书都非常值...
评分因为罗芃老师的节译本只收入在《尤瑟纳尔研究》一书中,没有独立的豆瓣页面,故借地写一点最近重读罗译哈德良的随感。(五星好评给罗译) 豆瓣上有时会看到一些评论,说罗译接近知音体,没有体现尤瑟纳尔的高大上。其实,这里可能是对尤瑟纳尔有所误解的。尤瑟纳尔的文名很大,...
