具体描述
One of the most famous and baffling romances in history-between Elizabeth I, Queen of England and Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex-began in May of 1587, when she was fifty-three and he was just shy of twenty. Their relationship continued until 1601, when the Earl of Essex was beheaded for treason. And, in a succession of brilliant scenes, Strachey portrays the Queen's and the Earl's compelling attraction for on another, their impassioned disagreements, and their mutual contest for power, which led to a final, tragic confrontation. Here we also have superb portraits of influential people of the time: Francis Bacon, Robert Cecil, Walter Raleigh, and other figures of the court who struggled to assert themselves in a kingdom that was primarily defined by her sovereign, and so now seen through history's lens as Elizabethan England.
作者简介
Lytton Strachey (1880-1932), among the most famous writers of his time, was a member of the Bloomsbury group and the author of a number of biographies. His Eminent Victorians, published in 1918, inaugurated a new style of biography distinguished by irony, wit, irreverence, and elegance of language. He is also the author of Elizabeth and Essex, Biographical Essays, and Literary Essays.

评分很棒的一本书，英语很风趣，汉语很调侃，故事很有意思，有点宫廷悲喜剧的结合体的意思，爱学习的人可以学习英语和中文的文学语言，爱玩耍的人可以看看其中的精彩对话和片段，很有意思的，我喜欢。伊丽莎白真是个令人感叹的老女人。
评分 评分贴一个我在2002年的评论吧) 上次推荐的《玛丽。斯图亚特》是茨威格（Stefan Zweig)的作品，侯焕闳老师从德文本译的。可与之参看的是几乎记录同一时代的传记《伊丽莎白女王和埃塞克斯伯爵》，Lytton Strachey写的，文笔和译笔都可以与之媲美。这本书也收在前几年的文化生活译...
评分很精彩的一本书，写了一个很精彩的女人，这个女人是多情的，因为她总是恋爱，这个女人是悲催的，因为她总是失恋，这个女人是伟大的，因为她统治着一个国家，收拾着全国的美男子，这个女人是渺小的，因为她没有真正拥有过任何一个男人，因为占据她心灵的是一个国家，而不是一个...
