The Tale of Balenby Algernon Charles SwinburneDEDICATIONTO MY MOTHERLove that holds life and death in fee,Deep as the clear unsounded seaAnd sweet as life or death can be,Lays here my hope, my heart, and meBefore you, silent, in a song.Since the old wild tale, made new, found grace,When half sung through, before your face,It needs must live a springtide space,While April suns grow strong.March 24, 1896.THE TALE OF BALENIn hawthorn-time the heart grows light,...
FAIRY TALES OF HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSENTHE NEIGHBOURING FAMILIESby Hans Christian AndersenONE would have thought that something important was going on inthe duck-pond, but it was nothing after all. All the ducks lyingquietly on the water or standing on their heads in it- for theycould do that- at once swarm to the sides; the traces of their feetwere seen in the wet earth, and their cackling was heard far and wide....
现在我将你葬于此处,我的醉汉,我的导航员,我失去的第一个保护者,为了爱,或为了以后的回忆。——安娜·萨克斯顿序幕她活着的时候我并不认识她。我通过别人得知她的存在,通过对她死因的调查而了解了她的生活。通过调查,通过找出来的一系列真相,我将她重构为一个无可救药的小女孩儿,一个妓女,至少是可能做过妓女——在这一点上我们有相同之处,我也曾经生活糜烂。我本来希望在凶杀组侦探的结案报告中能够隐去她的名字,用简要的几个字将此事一笔带过,验尸官那里也同样处理,再通过一些手续将她葬于义冢。可这个想法唯一的问题是,她不会愿意让我这样做。事实的真相是如此的残酷,她一定希望所有的真相都为人所知。那么既然我欠她的太多,而且又是唯一了解全部真相的人,所以就承担起了撰写这部回忆录的责任。...
经过十多天的疾驰,我与飞马终于赶到了熊谷,没想到熊谷是我看到仅次于自由岛的一个风景明媚的好地方,要山有山要水有水。一条溪流穿过熊谷,远远可见,有几只体形庞大的棕熊在河边捕鱼,身边数只小熊在水中戏耍。一尾鲜美的大鱼被抛上岸去,鱼颇为不甘的在空中扭动着身体,粼粼水光反射着阳光分外诱人。"吧嗒,"鱼落在岸边,几只小熊兴奋的"嗷嗷"叫着奔上岸来,厚实的熊掌按在鱼的脑袋上,一尾大鱼瞬间被分成几块,吃完了鱼,带着一嘴鱼鳞的小熊又欢蹦着向河中奔去。众熊有懒洋洋的躺在柔软的草地上,半眯着眼假寐,有立起上肢够树上的野果,几只半大的熊靠在树上蹭痒,小熊们三五一群,有戏耍的,有爬树的,有跟在母亲旁边睡大觉的。...
The Confessions of a Summer Colonistby William Dean HowellsThe season is ending in the little summer settlement on the Down Eastcoast where I have been passing the last three months, and with eachloath day the sense of its peculiar charm grows more poignant.A prescience of the homesickness I shall feel for it when I go alreadybegins to torment me, and I find myself wishing to imagine some form ofwords which shall keep a likeness of it at least through the winter; some...
没有哪一位艺术家在日常生活的二十四小时总是艺术家,他所获得的重大的、恒久的成就常常出自难得的灵感闪现的一瞬间。同样地,那被我们誉为古往今来最伟大的诗人和演员的历史也是如此,也不能持续不断地进行创造。尽管歌德虔诚地将历史称为“上帝的神奇作坊”,但在这个作坊里仍然有许许多多平淡无奇、微不足道的小事,而那些崇高而难忘的时刻都属凤毛麟角。历史仿佛是一位编年史家,漠然而执著地使一段又一段历史彼此相连,就像把一个又一个环扣串联成数千年悠久的长链,因为一切激动人心的事物都需要准备,一切重要的事件都要有个过程。一位天才的出现,需要一个国家的泱泱百万之众;千百万无谓流逝的时光过后,真正的历史上的关键时刻才会出现。...
Ernest Miller Hemingway was born in 1899 at Oak Park, a highly respectable suburb of Chicago, where his father, a keen sportsman, was a doctor. He was the second of six children. The family spent holidays in a lakeside hunting lodge in Michigan, near Indian settlements. Although energetic and successful in all school activities, Ernest twice ran away from home before joining the Kansas City Star as a cub reporter in 1917. Next year he volunteered as an ambulance driver on the Italian front and
第三卷 2 第十八章 修真之境(二) 第十八章 修真之境(下) 白色的结界带着我们从眼前的这个满布战舰和战机的星球的上面飞驰而过,转眼之间那个星球就已经消失在了我们的视野之中。 “那是堡垒之星,上面的那些战舰和战机全都是按照现实中的数据设计出来的,如果在现实中制造出它们的话,它们的威力和性能绝对比联邦中现役的大多数军团的战舰和战机要强的多。这里以后将会成为我们训练和组建星空战队的地方,这个空间叫做星空之境。” 我简要的对还在那里震惊的邓涛仁等八个外部高级执事解说道。凌韶华等几个内部的高级执事虽然已经不止一次的来过这里了,但是每次来还是会激动上一阵的,特别是凌韶华、华飞、雷震、童大伟四人,他们和我一样原本就是军人,而且还是联邦军队之中的王牌军团——军武战队,面对这些比联邦军队之中的战舰战机还要高出很多性能的战舰、战机他们如何会不兴奋和颤动,甚至是上去尝试驾...
ALEXANDER356-323 B.C.by Plutarchtranslated by John DrydenIT being my purpose to write the lives of Alexander the king, and of Caesar, by whom Pompey was destroyed, the multitude of their great actions affords so large a field that I were to blame if I should not by way of apology forewarn my reader that I have chosen rather to epitomize the most celebrated parts of their story, than to insist at large on every particular circumstance of it. It must be borne in
诸葛亮在自己的儿子诸葛方刚满10岁的时候就开始告诫他:“志当存高远。”诸葛亮还用自己小时候的故事教育儿子。诸葛亮的先祖诸葛丰在汉元帝时曾任司隶校尉,诸葛家族在当地属于名门望族。诸葛亮的父亲曾任太山郡丞,但在诸葛亮8岁时就过世了。诸葛亮和他的哥哥诸葛瑾、弟弟诸葛均以及两个姐姐从此都靠他的叔父诸葛玄抚养成人。诸葛亮的幼年时期,正是东汉王朝极度腐败、民不聊生的时候,并且自然灾害不断发生。人们饥寒交迫,走投无路,终于在公元184年爆发了黄巾农民大起义。诸葛亮9岁时,西凉豪强董卓带兵进京废掉少帝,另立献帝,控制了东汉政权。野心勃勃的其他豪强借口讨伐董卓纷纷起兵,从此开始了豪强割据、军阀混战的大乱时期。...
