Daisy Miller is one of Henry James's most attractive heroines: she represents youth and frivolity. As a tourist in Italy, her American freedom and freshness of spirit come up against the corruption and hypocrisy of European manners. From its first publication, readers on both sides of the Atlantic have quarrelled about her, defending or attacking the liberties that Daisy takes and the conventions that she ignores. All three tales in this collection, Daisy Miller, An International Episode and Lady Barbarina, express James's most notable subject, 'the international theme', the encounters, romantic and cultural, between Americans and Europeans. His heroes and heroines approach each other on unfamiliar ground with new freedoms, yet find themselves unexpectedly hampered by old constraints. In An International Episode, an English lord visiting Newport, Rhode Island, falls in love with an American girl, but their relationship becomes more complicated when she travels to London. In the light-hearted comedy Lady Barbarina, a rich young American seeks an English aristocratic bride. The unusual outcomes of these three tales pose a number of social questions about marriage and the traditional roles of men and women. Is an international marriage symbolic of the highest cultural fusion of values or is it an old style raid and capture? Is marriage to remain the feminine destination?
亨利·詹姆斯(1843—1916),現代小說大師,世界文學史上最重要的小說傢之一。他齣身於紐約上層知識分子傢庭,父親和兄長均是著名學者和哲學傢。他從小接受良好的教育,大學畢業後,便長期旅居歐洲,對19世紀末美國和歐洲的上層生活有細緻入微的觀察。古老保守的歐洲和年輕質樸的美國這兩種不同文化和價值體係間的衝突是他諸多作品的重要主題之一。他的小說風格獨特,語言精妙,技巧嫻熟,他還是心理小說創始人。詹姆斯一生創作瞭許多作品,其中最具代錶性的有《黛西·米勒》、《一位女士的畫像》,《螺絲在擰緊》、《鴿翼》、《使節》、《金碗》等。
隻看瞭Daisy Miller,其他的未讀……
評分注:隻讀瞭Daisy Miller,另外兩篇也不準備補瞭。這樣的小姑娘擱今天也會被說三道四,哎。
評分Lady Barbarina finished. Sharp contrast between America and Europe.
評分Their names:Daisy&Winterbourne
評分質疑自己是否學過英語?但安慰說畢竟是亨利詹姆斯,下次先試水簡單點的作者吧。
My English name is Daisy, which is named by the Korean movie “Daisy”. Daisy, in my mind, is a kind of flower looks fragile but has strong root. This similarity draw my attention to this book. The reading experience was quite enjoyable, the language is not...
評分故事中的男女主角的性格,和他们之间的结局其实已经可以从他们的名字看得出来。Daisy-四月的花朵,属于春天、向阳、活力十足,而且纯洁、天真,是少女和青春的象征;而Winterbourne则让人联想到冷冰冰的冬天,干秃秃的树枝,一片死寂,了无生气。雏菊是无法在冬天生长的,正如...
評分这本书所带来的惊喜实际上比我所预期要多,因此趁热打铁写点什么。此书由三部中篇构成,均属精品佳作。亨利詹姆斯的笔触并非欧洲文人艺术家优雅似的敏感或现代破碎似的精细或哲性坠落似的虚无来比拟,属美国式小说大师旁观者的精确从容。对于故事的展开,词语所到之处游刃...
評分巫宁坤翻译的部分确有生硬之感,但这本书在整体上还是不错的。 像亨利·詹姆斯这样的作家,国内至今仍没有一套全集,对读者而言实为一个不小的憾事!
