It all began with a dream. A young woman saw a white tiger leap into her lap. It was both auspicious and unlucky—her son, the fortune-teller said, would grow up with no brothers, and his father's health would be endangered by his birth. That son, however, would have a distinguished career, after going through many misfortunes and dangers.
The dream was prophetic. The child was his mother's only male child and his father died of illness when the boy was only five. He grew up during the wartime and period of political turmoil in China, passing through many troubles, and he has had a very distinguished career. He is Yang Xianyi, renowned scholar, translator and interpreter of Chinese and Western literature.
This delightful memoir of Yang Xianyi gives a candid and entertaining account of himself as a lighthearted and mischievous young man who immersed himself in the learning of European culture, ancient and modern, when he studied at Oxford in the 1930s. But it is also the illuminating self-portrait of a deeply patriotic intellectual living in a China under the throes of change, giving rare insight into the survival of a courageous, witty and principled individual during the harsh century of Chinese liberation.
Born in 1915 and educated in Oxford, Yang Xianyi is a world-renowned translator. He has translated, with his wife Gladys Yang, numerous Chinese classics such as A Dream of Red Mansions, The Scholars, Selected Works of Lu Xun, which are by now translations par excellence.

⒈说到阅读时,他说“我发现,要开列一份当时我阅读过的作品的书目几乎是不可能和事。通常我每天读一至两部,因此最著名的欧美小说家和诗人的作品我几乎已经读遍了。” ⒉杨先生作为一代翻译大师,在用英文著述自传时,遇到“秀才”、“八国联军”这样的词语,在思想...
評分去年年末买了两本英文回忆录,这是其中一本,另一本是郑念的life and death in shanghai,很凑巧的发现这两个人都是1915年1月出生,2009年11月逝世,都出生世家而在上世纪的30年代去英国接受教育,解放后都受到了冲击,文革中都坐过牢,郑念在文革中失去的唯一的女儿,杨先生的...
評分没有读过杨先生的译作,就这本自传而言,英语文风平实。或许每一位经历过那段跌宕起伏的历史的中国知识分子都最终归于平静,但杨先生无疑更是一位本质上康乐的人。一个人的出身和成长决定了他的心性,而杨先生应该是那种很有优越感(中性,无褒贬)的人,这令他无论处于何种环...
評分杨宪益老先生的自传。 我以为他只是个翻译家,初意只是想看看翻译家的人生。 但他生于1915年,天津中国银行行长的儿子,真是饱读诗书,留学牛津,娶了外国女子为妻。 抗日战争时期回国,辗转多地,经历新中国成立、wg、改革开放,个人的经历,又如何只能是两耳不闻窗外事。 杨...
評分看过之后才明白在中国太多时候是时机决定了眼界,政治决定了人生。年轻的富家子弟所谓的知识分子心怀祖国劳苦大众,受够了国民党的腐败,为了更好的未来他们选择了共产主义,然而社会主义或者共产主义快要到来的时候他们发现时代变化了;他们的热血理想或许曾经勾勒着时代...
