The Master and Margarita

The Master and Margarita pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025

Mikhail Bulgakov was born in Kiev in May 1891. His sympathetic portrayal of White characters in his stories, in the plays The Days of the Turbins (The White Guard), which enjoyed great success at the Moscow Arts Theatre in 1926, and Flight (1927), and his satirical treatment of the officials of the New Economic Plan, led to growing criticism, which became violent after the play The Purple Island. He also wrote a brilliant biography of his literary hero, Jean-Baptiste Moliere, but The Master and Margarita is generally considered his masterpiece. Fame, at home and abroad, was not to come until a quarter of a century after his death at Moscow in 1940.

Surely no stranger work exists in the annals of protest literature than The Master and Margarita. Written during the Soviet crackdown of the 1930s, when Mikhail Bulgakov's works were effectively banned, it wraps its anti-Stalinist message in a complex allegory of good and evil. Or would that be the other way around? The book's chief character is Satan, who appears in the guise of a foreigner and self-proclaimed black magician named Woland. Accompanied by a talking black tomcat and a "translator" wearing a jockey's cap and cracked pince-nez, Woland wreaks havoc throughout literary Moscow. First he predicts that the head of noted editor Berlioz will be cut off; when it is, he appropriates Berlioz's apartment. (A puzzled relative receives the following telegram: "Have just been run over by streetcar at Patriarch's Ponds funeral Friday three afternoon come Berlioz.") Woland and his minions transport one bureaucrat to Yalta, make another one disappear entirely except for his suit, and frighten several others so badly that they end up in a psychiatric hospital. In fact, it seems half of Moscow shows up in the bin, demanding to be placed in a locked cell for protection.

Meanwhile, a few doors down in the hospital lives the true object of Woland's visit: the author of an unpublished novel about Pontius Pilate. This Master--as he calls himself--has been driven mad by rejection, broken not only by editors' harsh criticism of his novel but, Bulgakov suggests, by political persecution as well. Yet Pilate's story becomes a kind of parallel narrative, appearing in different forms throughout Bulgakov's novel: as a manuscript read by the Master's indefatigable love, Margarita, as a scene dreamed by the poet--and fellow lunatic--Ivan Homeless, and even as a story told by Woland himself. Since we see this narrative from so many different points of view, who is truly its author? Given that the Master's novel and this one end the same way, are they in fact the same book? These are only a few of the many questions Bulgakov provokes, in a novel that reads like a set of infinitely nested Russian dolls: inside one narrative there is another, and then another, and yet another. His devil is not only entertaining, he is necessary: "What would your good be doing if there were no evil, and what would the earth look like if shadows disappeared from it?"

Unsurprisingly--in view of its frequent, scarcely disguised references to interrogation and terror--Bulgakov's masterwork was not published until 1967, almost three decades after his death. Yet one wonders if the world was really ready for this book in the late 1930s, if, indeed, we are ready for it now. Shocking, touching, and scathingly funny, it is a novel like no other. Woland may reattach heads or produce 10-ruble notes from the air, but Bulgakov proves the true magician here. The Master and Margarita is a different book each time it is opened. --Mary Park --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

我想,布尔加科夫在烧毁《大师与玛格丽特》手稿时的心情,应该和小说中大师烧毁倾注他全部心血和热情却不允许被出版的小说手稿时的心情一样,绝望、恐惧、暴躁、无奈又疯狂。不同的是,大师住进了疯人院,而布尔加科夫选择了重写《大师与玛格丽特》(又名《撒旦狂舞》)...

1. 编稿时,顺便读了一两篇关于《大师和玛格丽特》的分析文章。其中不少学者讨论到犹太总督彼拉多和机密署长阿夫拉尼的谈话。总的感觉,西方学者对于大领导与秘密警察头子的微妙关系是十分陌生的。西方学者似乎无法理解两人奇奇怪怪的谈话,扯了一大通什么“后现代”,什么“作...

译者王男栿,网络上没有他的简介资料,书中对其也没作介绍。从译文风格来看,王不像新手译者。小说的内容就无需赘言。现就本人在阅读过程中遇到的译文问题及个人看法,按页数顺序列示如下: 1. 第30页倒数第6行 ”点上灯……”彼拉多咬牙切齿,眼睛闪烁着光芒,用和疑犯相同的...

这部小说的手法很奇特,有现实中的人,有魔鬼,有历史中的人。他们在小说中相互交织,魔鬼可以来人间,人可以在天上飞可以参加撒旦的宴会,人可以丑陋无比,魔鬼可以淘气可爱。小说中又包含小说,让人眼花缭乱。小说有三条线索: 1.魔王沃兰德造访莫斯科并且观察这个莫斯科社...
