LordoftheFlies解读
Lord of the Flies
在一场未来的核战争中,一架飞机带 着一群男孩从英国本土飞向南方疏散。 飞机被击落。孩子们乘坐的机舱落到 一座世外桃源般的,荒无人烟的珊瑚 岛上。起初这群孩子齐心协力,后来 由于害怕所谓的“野兽”分裂成两派, 以崇尚本能的专制为“Beelzebub” (又有说此词出 自阿拉伯语)。在英语中, “蝇王”则是粪便与丑恶之王(或污物之 王),在《圣经》“Beelzebub”被当作“万恶之首”. 在小说里, 蝇王不只是象征着丑恶的悬挂着的猪头,更代表的是人性最深层的 黑暗面,是无法避免的劣根性。
Achievements:
1979 : the James Tait Black Memorial Prize
1980: an the Booker Prize
1983: the Nobel Prize for Literature, an unexpected and even contentious choice (the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography)
作品揭示了,一群英国少年在逐步适应了丛林中如野人般的 狂放不羁,凶残,野蛮的生活方式后渐渐抛弃了文明,道德,有 原则的行为模式,并以此诠释了两种天性的冲突。
•Loss of innocence (童心泯灭)
As the boys on the island progress from well-behaved, orderly children who hope to be rescued to cruel, bloodthirsty hunters who have no desire to return to civilization, they naturally lose the sense of innocence that they possessed at the beginning of the novel.
史蒂芬·金作品超越你想象的10个地方
史蒂芬·金作品超越你想象的10个地方美国恐怖小说销量冠军的作家,斯蒂芬·金,以其著作等身而闻名。
至2015年夏天,他已经出版了54部小说以及200多篇的短篇故事。
金曾称自己的很多作品都像“巨无霸”(a Big Mac,麦当劳一种汉堡)一样,内容丰富,涉猎广泛(虽然不是所有作品都这样)。
而其中最吸人眼球,让人着迷的几部小说,彼此都有着密切的联系。
10.《虚构的小镇》斯蒂芬·金的作品中最密切联系的一点就是他们都发生在虚构的缅因州小镇上。
在他的作品中,金经常会用到德里(Derry)、岩堡市(Castle Rock)和耶路撒冷领地(Jerusalem’s Lot.)这三个地名。
德里是《死光》(It)、《失眠》(Insomnia)、《尸骨袋》(Bag of Bones)、《追梦人》(Dreamcatcher)和《公平的扩展》(Fair Extension)这些小说的故事背景所在。
而一些短篇故事和小说,如《死亡区域》(The Dead Zone)、《恶兆》(Cujo)、《必需品专卖店》(Needful Things)和《黑暗的另一半》( The Dark Half.)的部分情节发生在岩堡市。
《缅因鬼镇》(‘Salem’s Lot)和其他两篇短篇故事的发生地是耶路撒冷领地。
除了这些主要的背景城市,还有很多虚构的地点,比如小说《魔女嘉丽》(Carrie)中的城市钱柏林(Chamberlain);《宠物公墓》(Pet Sematary)和《燃烧森林》(Tommyknockers)以及《黑暗的另一半》(The Dark Half)部分情节中的小镇德罗(Ludlow),《惊鸟》(Dolores Claiborne)和《世纪邪风暴》(Storm of the Century)中的小高岛(Little Tall Island),以及《穹顶之下》的背景地点(Chester’s Mill)。
这个虚构的缅因州与我们所生活的缅因州并行不悖,连斯蒂芬·金自己都说缅因州的班戈就是他虚构中的德里。
德国皇帝威廉名言
德国皇帝威廉名⾔1. 威廉golding说过的⼀句名⾔⼀个⾦发男孩从最后⼏英尺的岩壁上滑溜下来,开始⼩⼼翼翼地找条道⼉奔向环礁湖。
尽管他已脱掉校服式的⽑线衫,这会⼉提在⼿⾥任其飘摇,灰⾊的衬衫却仍然粘在⾝上,头发也湿漉漉地贴在前额。
在他周围,⼀条狭长的断层岩直插林莽深处,⼀切都沐浴在阳光之中。
…… ——选⾃威廉·⼽尔丁:《蝇王》 “蝇王”即苍蝇之王,源于希伯莱语Baalzebub,在《圣经》中“Baal”被当作“万恶之⾸”,在英语中,“蝇王”是污秽物之王,也是丑恶灵魂的同义词。
1954年,威廉·⼽尔丁(William Golding)爵⼠以“蝇王”为主题写作出版了⼀部⼩说,名字就叫《蝇王》。
这是⼀部带有神话⾊彩的⼩说,孩⼦是这个故事的主⼈公,但《蝇王》并不是⼀般意义上的⼉童⽂学,⽽是⼀部写给⼤⼈看的书,故事所展⽰的⼉童世界只是成⼈世界的⼀个缩影。
正如王⼩波所说过的,这部⼩说只是把故事放在了未来时代的背景中,其实质和纯⽂学是相同的。
由于现在的时代背景不能准确表达作家的创作意图,才把故事放在⼀个他想象的世界中。
在这部作品中,⼽尔丁⽤他特有的沉思与冷静挖掘着⼈类千百年来从未停⽌过的互相残杀的根源,是⼀部揭⽰⼈性恶的现代版寓⾔。
故事设置了⼈的原善与原恶、⼈性与兽性、理性与⾮理性、⽂明与野蛮等⼀系列⽭盾冲突,冲突的结果令⼈信服地展现出⽂明、理性的脆弱性和追求民主法治秩序的难度,说明了⼈类⾛向专制易,奔向民主社会难的道理。
在欲望和野蛮⾯前,⼈类⽂明为何显得如此草包如此不堪⼀击?这正是《蝇王》的思考之所在。

WilliamGolding戈尔丁简介
William Golding戈尔丁简介1911- 长篇小说:Lord of the Flies蝇王;The Inheritors继承人;Pincher Martin平却·马丁;The Spire塔尖;The Pyramid金字塔in full Sir William Gerald Goldingborn Sept. 19, 1911, St. Columb Minor, near Newquay, Cornwall, Eng.died June 19, 1993, Perranarworthal, near Falmouth, CornwallWilliam Golding.English novelist who in 1983 won the Nobel Prize for Literature for his parables of the human condition. He attracted a cult of followers, especially among the youth of the post-World War II generation.Educated at Marlborough Grammar School, where his father taught, and at Brasenose College, Oxford, Golding graduated in 1935. After working in a settlement house and in small theatre companies, he became a schoolmaster at Bishop Wordsworth's School, Salisbury. He joined the Royal Navy in 1940, took part in the action that saw the sinking of the German battleship Bismarck,and commanded a rocket-launching craft during the invasion of France in 1944. After the war he resumed teaching at Bishop Wordsworth's until 1961.Golding's first published novel was Lord of the Flies (1954; film 1963 and 1990), the story of a group of schoolboys isolated on a coral island who revert to savagery. Its imaginative and brutal depiction of the rapid and inevitable dissolution of social mores aroused widespread interest. The Inheritors(1955), set in the last days of Neanderthal man, is anotherstory of the essential violence and depravity of human nature. The guilt-filled reflections of a naval officer, his ship torpedoed, who faces an agonizing death are the subject of Pincher Martin (1956). Two other novels, Free Fall(1959) and The Spire(1964), also demonstrate Golding's belief that “man produces evil as a bee produces honey.” Darkness Visible(1979) tells the story of a boy horribly burned in the London blitz during World War II. His later works include Rites of Passage(1980), which won the Booker McConnell Prize, and its sequels, Close Quarters (1987) and Fire Down Below (1989). Golding was knighted in 1988.Early lifeWilliam Golding was born in his grandmother's house, 47 Mountwise, St Columb Minor, Cornwall and he spent many childhood holidays there. He grew up at his family home in Marlborough, Wiltshire, where his father (Alec Golding) was a science master at Marlborough Grammar School (1905 to retirement). Alec Golding was a socialist with a strong commitment to scientific rationalism, and the young Golding and his elder brother Joseph attended the school where his father taught. His mother, Mildred, kept house at 29, The Green, Marlborough, and supported the moderate campaigners for female suffrage. In 1930 Golding went to Oxford University as an undergraduate at Brasenose College, where he read Natural Sciences for two years before transferring to English Literature.Golding's biographer John Carey claimed in 2009 that Golding admits in a diary to attempted rape while he was an undergraduate。

One thing interesting to note about these is their settings. The stories are set usually in a place far from “the old world”: either on a wild island (like Lord of the Flies [1954]), or on a rock in the Atlantic (as in Pincher Martin [1956]), or in a primitive world (as is The Inheritors [1955]), or a medieval town (as is The Spire [1964]).

金字塔读后感50字左右
金字塔读后感50字左右英文回答:The Pyramid is a captivating novel written by William Golding, which explores the themes of savagery,civilization, and the complexities of human nature. Golding masterfully creates a microcosm of society on a remote island, where a group of British boys are stranded after a plane crash. As the boys struggle to survive and establish order, the fragile veneer of civilization begins to crumble, revealing the dark and primal instincts that lurk within. Golding's vivid descriptions and insightfulcharacterization paint a chilling portrait of the human condition, delving into the depths of both good and evil.Through the lens of the boys' experiences, Golding examines the delicate balance between order and chaos, the fragility of civilization, and the enduring power of human nature. The novel's haunting resonance stems from its timeless exploration of the human psyche, making it aprofound and thought-provoking read that continues to captivate readers to this day.中文回答:《金字塔》(The Pyramid)是威廉·戈尔丁创作的一部长篇小说,探讨了野蛮、文明和人性复杂性等主题。

War service
During World War II, Golding fought in the Royal Navy and was briefly involved in the pursuit and sinking of Germany's mightiest battleship, the Bismarck. He also participated in the invasion of Normandy on D-Day, commanding a landing ship that fired salvoes of rockets onto the beaches, and then in a naval action at Walcheren in which 23 out of 24 assault craft were sunk. At the war's end he returned to teaching and writing.

英国小说家威廉-戈尔丁及其代表作《蝇王》
英国小说家威廉?戈尔丁及其代表作《蝇王》[摘要]诺贝尔奖包括物理学奖、化学奖、生理学或医学奖、文学奖、和平奖和纪念诺贝尔经济学奖6项,它们已成为各自领域声望最高的世界级大奖。
笔者倡议在国际上创建诺学(The Study of Nobel Prizes),就像中国红学研究《红楼梦》一样广泛深入地研究诺贝尔、诺贝尔奖及其得主以及其他相关事宜。
英国小说家威廉·戈尔丁是1983年诺贝尔文学奖得主,评论界称他为“二战”后英国“最具感染力、最富想象力和最有独创精神的小说家”,本文比较详细地介绍了他的有关情况,其代表作《蝇王》已成为世界名著。
中国高考题(包括自主招生考试题和面试题)涉及诺贝尔奖的情况已越来越多,这从一个侧面说明笔者倡议在国际上创建诺学的必要性和重要性。

1930年戈尔丁考入牛津大学布拉西诺斯学院(Brasenose College)本科学习,遵父命学习自然科学,2年后改修英国文学和哲学,1934年6月取得二级学士学位,同年秋出版其第一本诗集(包括29首小诗,鲜为人知,影响很小)。

《法国中尉的女人》提要
19世纪60年代,英国南部的莱姆小镇上,被称为“法国中尉的女人”的 萨拉经常独自一人在海滩栈桥上若有所思地观看大海。据说她因看护一 位受伤的法国船长而与其相爱并委身于他,但是法国中尉回国后便杳无 音信。来自伦敦的查尔斯陪同未婚妻蒂娜到莱姆镇的姨妈家做客,与萨 拉邂逅,被她神秘的诱惑力吸引。他们的关系日益密切,萨拉还把她被 法国中尉遗弃的遭遇告诉他。随后,萨拉离开莱姆镇前往艾塞特治病, 而查尔斯则乘火车去伦敦处理财产继承事务。这时福斯特为小说安排了 三种不同的结局。其一是查尔斯克制住对萨拉的迷恋,在伦敦办完事后 连夜赶回莱姆镇,向蒂娜坦白了他与萨拉之间的恋情。两人结婚,一块 生活到老,生有7个儿女。其二是查尔斯没有直接回莱姆镇,而是在艾塞 特站下了火车,在一家旅店与萨拉幽会。他了解到萨拉并未失身于法国 中尉,而是因为不能容忍维多利亚时代的虚伪才“自甘堕落”。查尔斯 决定解除与蒂娜的婚约,与萨拉结婚,但萨拉却突然失踪。查尔斯在历 经波折后终于与萨拉和他们的女儿团聚。最后一种结局是查尔斯在萨拉 失踪后找到了她,但是萨拉为了保持自己的独立和自由而拒绝了查尔斯。

William Golding
威廉· 戈尔丁(William Golding, 1911-1993),英国小说家,出生 于英格兰康沃尔郡一个教师家庭。受信仰科学的父亲影响,他于 1930年进入牛津大学时学的是理科,但两年后改学文学。1935年 毕业后在一所中学做教员,同时开始创作小说。第二次世界大战 期间,戈尔丁于1940年参加英国皇家海军,在一艘火箭舰艇上服 役5年。战争极大地改变了戈尔丁以前对人类所持有的乐观态度, 他决定通过自己的作品揭示人性中邪恶的一面,帮助人类面对自 己心灵深处的黑暗。1954年发表的小说《蝇王》(Lord of the Flies)便是在这种思想指导下创作而成。《蝇王》是戈尔丁的成 名作,也是他的代表作。继《蝇王》发表之后,戈尔丁笔耕不辍, 在三十多年的创作生涯中又发表了《继承人》(The Inheritors, 1955)、《品彻· 马丁》(Pincher Martin,1956)、《自由堕落》 (Free Fall, 1959)、《塔尖》(The Spire, 1963)、《看得见的 黑暗》(Darkness Visible, 1979)、《航行仪式》(The Rites of Passage, 1980)等小说,对人性的探讨则成为贯穿几乎所有小说 的主题。1983年戈尔丁获诺贝尔文学奖。
