The Last of the Mohicans (Oxford World's Classics) pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
The second of Cooper's five Leatherstocking Tales, this is the one which has consistently captured the imagination of generations since it was first published in 1826. Its success lies partly in the historical role Cooper gives to his Indian characters, against the grain of accumulated racial hostility, and partly in his evocation of the wild beautiful landscapes of North America which the French and the British fought to control throughout the eighteenth century. At the centre of the novel is the celebrated 'Massacre' of British troops and their families by Indian allies of the French at Fort William Henry in 1757. Around this historical event, Cooper built a romantic fiction of captivity, sexuality, and heroism, in which the destiny of the Mohicans Chingachgook and his son Uncas is inseparable from the lives of Alice and Cora Munro and of Hawkeye the frontier scout. The controlled, elaborate writing gives natural pace to the violence of the novel's action: like the nature whose plundering Copper laments, the books placid surfaces conceal inexplicable and deathly forces.

虽然是有名的小说,虽然号称《皮裹腿故事集》中最经典的作品,但是我再三努力,最终还是没能读完。 还是时代的关系吧,这种叙述中夹杂许多议论的叙事方式,旧时代繁复的礼节、比喻和做派,还有无处不在的白人的种族优越感,不熟悉的印第安部族与殖民史,都影响到阅读的流畅感...
評分 評分库珀的《刺客》写的不错,《最后一个莫西干人》是在看了电影之后才看的原著,从主旨来说,小说更具神采——当一个民族的神灵都受到亵渎与践踏的时候,她该消亡了...殖民是黑暗的,自由与美好再让人热血澎湃,终究要湮没在必将到来的阴霾中。
評分歐美的財富積累很大程度上是掠奪,無論是北美還是南美,由於白人的入侵使得當地的原住民銷聲匿跡。光看小說的名字就知道是個驚心動魄的悲劇故事。那些為被開墾的土地上的人用生命保衛家園,結局卻都一樣,不甚唏噓。
