喬治·愛略特(一八一九—一八八○),十九世紀著名英國女小說傢,本名瑪利安·伊凡斯,成名作為《教區生活小景》,其他代錶作有《亞當·比德》、《弗洛斯河上的磨坊》,《織工馬南》、《米德爾馬奇》等。
George Eliot's Middlemarch (1871-72) is one of the classic novels of English literature and was admired by Virginia Woolf as "one of the few English novels written for grown-up people." The complex main plot and many subplots revolve around Dorothea Brooke, an ardent young woman, and her relationship to three men: Casaubon, a clergyman and scholar twice her age; Lydgate, an ambitious young doctor who shares Dorothea's enthusiasm for reform but whose flaws compromise his ambitions; and Will Ladislaw, a young man of mysterious origins, romantic temperament, and artistic inclinations. A female Bildungsroman and a study of character and society in the realistic mode pioneered by Balzac, Middlemarch is also an historical novel that offers a panorama of English society in an era of social reform and political agitation. This Broadview edition includes a critical introduction and a rich selection of contextual materials, including contemporary reviews of the novel, other writings by George Eliot (essays, reviews, and criticism), and historical documents pertaining to medical reform, religious freedom, and the advent of the railroads.
以下是看完比较印象深刻的几点: 1、全书最喜欢的一个人物,高思太太。她有一种罕见的理性,善于识别什么是不可改变的,因而毫无怨言地服从了事。在高思先生因为担保而损失一笔还蛮重要的钱之后,高思太太第一反应不是歇斯底里、埋怨,而是想解决办法,这件事过后再进行教育。...
評分好久没看过这种静水深流的故事了。过了第一二章,后面就被作者牵着走了。这种牵引不仅靠情节,也靠观点与形象,让人只能亦步亦趋,边看边想。 在艾略特的年代,小说在人民文娱生活中的地位,应该和如今的电视剧是一样的。因此,不管作者是否有别的企图,让普通读者喜闻乐见仍...
評分In the middle of the march. 盛年的六位主角.三年的生活片段,怎麼會如此地崇高呢?Dorothea的責任感和Garth的擇偶觀,呼應瞭小說深厚的道德觀和艾略特自己的體驗.角色匆匆尋找的,都是日常生活中的救贖.Dorothea需要Will;Lydgate需要Rose;婚姻的煎熬打破瞭奧斯丁以降的幸福神話.Featherstone的死和Bulstrode的罪行,勾結的是遺囑和迴憶摧枯拉朽的力量.
评分Ladislaw生命中三個任性的女人
评分三天看完。我進步瞭。
评分A month-long reading, painfully intricated by meditative sentences and psychological monologues, not a stereotyped Victorian fiction which depicts provincial life, but a timeless precursor.
评分像一部1830—1832年英國社會百科全書。不得不佩服喬治•艾略特的纔氣和用功,為瞭寫作這本小說大量閱讀瞭相關學術資料,於是Middlemarch裏充滿瞭神話學(Casaubon),醫學(醫療改革, Lydgate,解剖學,縴維組織,顯微鏡,聽診器),物理學(顯微鏡隱喻,穿衣鏡的光學隱喻,氫氧原子隱喻,電池隱喻),昆蟲學(Farebrother),藝術(Ladislaw,繪畫,詩歌,德國浪漫主義運動) 意象:網,流水,望遠鏡,顯微鏡,迷宮,火,雨水,陽光 社會史:改革法案,醫療改革,修建鐵路,霍亂疫情,打惠斯特牌,鴉片,社會階層的鬆動融閤 marriage plot,vocation 醫生:physician,surgeon,apothecary Theresa們建功立業的史詩時代已永遠逝去
