Hemingway's Pulitzer Prize-winning classic The Old Man and the Sea is one of Hemingway's most enduring works. Told in language of great simplicity and power, it is the story of an old Cuban fisherman, down on his luck, and his supreme ordeal -- a relentless, agonizing battle with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream. Here Hemingway recasts, in strikingly contemporary style, the classic theme of courage in the face of defeat, of personal triumph won from loss. Written in 1952, this hugely successful novella confirmed his power and presence in the literary world and played a large part in his winning the 1954 Nobel Prize for literature. Ernest Hemingway did more to change the style of English prose than any other writer in the twentieth century, and for his efforts he was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1954. Hemingway wrote in short, declarative sentences and was known for his tough, terse prose. Publication of The Sun Also Rises and A Farewell to Arms immediately established Ernest Hemingway as one of the greatest literary lights of the twentieth century. As part of the expatriate community in 1920s Paris, the former journalist and World War I ambulance driver began a career that lead to international fame. Hemingway was an aficionado of bullfighting and big-game hunting, and his main protagonists were always men and women of courage and conviction, who suffered unseen scars, both physical and emotional. He covered the Spanish Civil War, portraying it in fiction in his brilliant novel For Whom the Bell Tolls , and he subsequently covered World War II. His classic novella The Old Man and the Sea won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953. He died in 1961.
一 在我初次撰写本文的那些天,我在校园散步时读到一则讣告,本校一位退休工人在家中去世,享年104岁。讣告特别提到,他生前是一位淡泊、俭朴的老人。我在对他油然升起敬意的同时,也产生一丝惊讶,我从讣告中得知,他与我同居一幢宿舍,而我却对他一无所知,甚至素未谋面。 我...
评分在海明威深刻细腻的文字描写背后,常感受到一颗空虚寂寞,渴望被认同并自我实现的心灵。在自己经验的意识里,跳动却始终无法从自我解脱的絮念的思想。 在《老人与海》一书中,老人竭尽全力要证实自己的力量,并不肯屈服于自己的命运,最后,他钓到了一条大鱼,虽然鱼肉被鲨鱼吃...
评分① 到底文学是怎么回事儿 上回我们跟大家讲海明威写《老人与海》这本书多少有点“夫子自道”。因为在这之前,他已经被认为再也写不出好小说了,尤其他上一本小说是饱遭劣评。但是,这本小说出来之后他大获成功! 美国当年很有名的杂志《生活》周刊,有一整期杂志把这篇小...

真无聊
评分短小而精练~寓意深刻
评分虽然是本好书,可是我不喜欢。透着一股让人可怜又可恨的愚蠢。
评分" but man is not made for defeat, man can be destroyed but not defeated!" Said the old man after killed a shark who took 40 pound of his great marlin and lost the harpoon. "Eat that, galanos. And make a dream you have killed a man." How could sharks kill a person by having eaten 1000 pound fish? He took a fish as a dignity, an achievement to prove to the public, not to his beloved boy, but society by the people like parents of the boy. Sort of endless but life taking proves. "What beat you?" "Nothing, I (just) went out too far." The old man talk to himself, he didn't confess that the boy is a critical element he can't bring with and which turned out to be such an exhausted trip.
