Life of Pi
少年Pi的奇幻漂流
该片讲述了一位印度少年Pi遭遇了海难与一只名叫 Richard•Pack的孟加拉虎历经磨难终得生还的故事。它包含了宗教信仰、神性人性、理性感性的冲突思考和自我检索。
一个是导演费尽笔墨渲染的励志少年求生记，一个是少年Pi平淡叙述的残酷无情的食人记，哪一个故事才是真相，不过仁者见仁，智者见智。
一、大远景
大远景是用广角镜头拍摄的一个辽阔区域，取景范围极大。构图时，人物只占据画面中的极小部分，与其所处环境相比，往往微不足道，场景成为表现主体。
如图，微小的人物和船只与广阔的海天形成巨大的对比，正是这种反差，增加了画面空旷的感觉。
大远景通常从高角度拍摄，用来做为定场镜头或提示宽广开阔的空间，它能创作深邃的意境，以景抒情，强调画面的整体气氛的营造。
如图，将老虎看做被摄主体，该景别充分展示了被摄体所处的环境空间，渲染了怅惘孤独的气息。
三、全景
全景以表现某一个被摄对象的全貌和它所处的环境为目的。被摄主体可能占满整个银幕。全景又叫做全身镜头，相对远景视野小些，人物在画面中的比例大致等于画面的高度，往往成为每一场戏的主镜头。
如图，隐的茫然和无助。
如图，与幽蓝深邃、磷光点点的海面相比，白色的船只显得非常渺小，而一旁的人物更是几乎完全不能看清，由此营造出一种静谧深远的气氛。
二、远景
远景是指摄影机远距离拍摄事物的镜头，由于镜头与拍摄对象之间的距离比较远，画面就开阔，景深悠远。它同大远景之间并无明确的界限，只是人物主体在面中所占有的比例相对增大，但是仍然以环境和气氛的塑造为主。如下图，船只和人物虽小却明显。
如图，表现了具体的场景全貌，人物和船只的位置安排恰到好处，使画面充实而富有层次感。

看电影学英语附讲解

看电影学英语附讲解:《傲慢与偏见》[4]Collins: Dear Miss Elizabeth, I am sure my attentions have been too marked to be mistaken. Almost as soon as I entered the house, I singled you out as the companion of my future life. But before I am run away with my feelings, perhaps I may state my reasons for marrying. Firstly, that it is the duty of a clergyman to set the example of matrimony in his parish. Secondly, that I am convinced it will add greatly to my happiness. And thirdly, that it is at the urging of my esteemed patroness, Lady Catherine, that I select a wife. My object in coming to Longbourn was to choose such a one from among Mr. Bennet's daughters, for I am to inherit the estate and such an alliance will surely…suit everyone. And now nothing remains but for me to assur e you in the most animated language of the violence of my affections.Elizabeth: Mr. Collins!Collins: And that no reproach on the subject of fortune will cross my lips once we're married. Elizabeth: You're too hasty, sir. You forget that I have given no answer.Collins: I must add that Lady Catherine will thoroughly approve when I speak to her of your modesty, economy and other amiable qualitiesElizabeth: Sir, I am honored by your proposal, but I regret that I must decline it.Collins: I know ladies don't seek to seem too eager...Elizabeth: Mr. Collins, I am perfectly serious. You could not make me happy. And I'm convinced I'm the last woman in the world who could make you happy.Collins: I flatter myself, cousin, that your refusal is merely a natural delicacy. Besides, you should take into account that despite the manifold attractions, it is by no means certain that another offer of marriage may ever be made to you...Elizabeth: Mr. Collins!Collins: ...I must conclude that you simply seek to increase my love by suspense...Elizabeth: Sir!Collins: ...according to the usual practice of elegant females.Elizabeth: Sir, I am not the sort of female to torment a respectable man. Please understand me, I cannot accept you.妙词佳句，活学活用1. single outIf you single sb. out from a group, you choose them and give them special attention or treatment. 挑选e.g. Mr. Collins singled out Jane first as his future wife at first, but then he switched to Elizabeth. He was singled out by his teacher to take part in the competition.2. hasty匆忙的，草率的e.g. They shouldn't have made such a hasty decision.另外在汉语中我们的一句成语“欲速则不达”跟hasty的同根词haste有关，英语中有两种达：Haste makes wasteMore haste, less speed.大家不妨在这里牢记住这个表达。

《LifeofPi》影评

《LifeofPi》影评篇一：Life of pi影评11111Life of pi影评英美影视课上，老师放了一部电影，life of pi 其给我感触颇深。

李安的作品总是隐隐含着某种深刻的思想，既不收得过紧，也不放的特开，把握的非常好，而《life of pi》也一样，这是他继2D以来拍的第一部3D电影，可是却取得了非常大成功。

Pi 从小心地善良，有多重信仰。

而海上那只老虎，却是另一个自己（或者说是自己心中邪恶、暴力的一面）。

当那只母猩猩（在第二个故事中，那代表Pi的母亲）被咬死的时候，那个暴力的自己，就像老虎突然地出场一样，一下子被激发了出来，并且将豪猪杀死了。

然后，在茫茫大海上，善良的Pi 与暴力邪恶的另一个自己老虎展开了一段生死之旅。

Pi从最开始惧怕老虎，到希望去控制老虎，一直到最后两者相安无事，体现了人性多面的对决和融合。

海洋上那些唯美的画面，如镜面的海中泛起的小舟和木筏，两者的沉默与宁静，这种唯美画面正好隐射人性多面的融合和和谐。

我们必须认识自己的每一面，因为这不同的特质让我们适应不同的环境。

正如奇幻瑰丽的漂浮岛，有光艳祥和的白日，也有宁静邪恶的夜晚。

事物都有两面，我们享受其美好，也不可忽视其邪恶，只是我们要学会选择，要充满勇气去战胜恶获得美。

最后Pi和老虎漂流到了海滩，安全了。

老虎并没有留恋Pi，未曾与Pi道别就默默离开了。

因为那个在特殊人生境地中拯救自己的另一面，已经不再需要了。

故事的讲诉者，中年Pi在最后感谢了爸爸，其实这是让我开始明白电影的起点。

爸爸给了Pi一个代表纯净的名字（爸爸对那个纯净的游泳池耿耿于怀，于是把名字给了Pi），但同时有告诉他，社会是复杂的，不能轻信信仰。

在经历了生死漂游的PI才明白，爸爸是多么的智慧。

教导Pi要去接受我们不能不面临的一些境地，而那些境地，或许需要依靠我们人性中不为自己知道的那一面来帮助自己克服。

还有一场很生动的场面。

Pi和老虎在海上遭遇了暴风雨。

life of pi 英文分析和总结人物分析作者背景相关问题

Yann Martel was born on June 25, 1963, in Salamanca, Spain, to Canadian parents. When Martel was a young boy, his parents joined the Canadian Foreign Services, and the family moved frequently, living in Alaska, France, Costa Rica, Ontario, and British Columbia. Martel went on to study philosophy at Trent University in Ontario, where he discovered a love for writing. After graduating in 1985, Martel lived with his parents and worked a number of odd jobs while continuing to write fiction. He published a collection of short stories, The Facts Behind the Helsinki Roccamatios, in 1993 and a novel, Self, in 1996, but neither book received much critical or commercial attention. In 2002, however, Martel’s international literary reputation was sealed with the publication of Life of Pi, a runaway bestseller that went on to win the prestigious Man Booker Prize (awarded each year to the best English-language novel written by a Commonwealth or Irish author) and had since been translated into thirty languages. Fox 2000 pictures bought the screen rights to Mar tel’s novel, and a feature film is expected in 2008.Life of Pi is set against the tumultuous period of Indian history known as the Emergency. In 1975, Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was found guilty of charges related to her 1971 election campaign and was ordered to resign. Instead—and in response to a rising tide of strikes and protests that were paralyzing the government—Gandhi declared a state of emergency, suspending constitutional rights and giving herself the power to rule by decree. The Emergency lasted for eighteen months and was officially ended in March 1977 when Gandhi called for a new round of elections. The historical legacy of the Emergency has been highly controversial: while civil liberties in this emerging democracy were severely curtailed an d Gandhi’s political opponents found themselves jailed, abused, and tortured, India’s economy experienced a much-needed stabilization and growth. In Life of Pi,Piscine (Pi) Molitor Patel’s father, a zookeeper in Pondicherry, India, grows nervous about the current political situation. Speculating that Gandhi might try to take over his zoo and faced with depressing economic conditions, Pi’s father decides to sell off his zoo animals and move his family to Canada, thus setting the main action of the novel into motion.Though only a relatively brief section of Life of Pi is actually set in India, the country’s eclectic makeup is reflected throughout the novel. Pi is raised as a Hindu but as a young boy discovers both Christianity and Islam and decides to practice all three religions simultaneously. In the Author’s Note, an elderly Indian man describes the story of Pi as “a story that will make you believe in God,” and Life of Pi continuously grapples with questions of faith; as an adherent to the three most prominent religions in India, Pi provides a unique perspective on issues of Indian spirituality. India’s diverse culture is further reflected in Martel’s choice of Pon dicherry as a setting. India was a British colony for nearly two hundred years, and consequently most of the nation has been deeply influenced by British culture. However, Pondicherry, a tiny city in southern India, was once the capital of French India and as such has retained a uniquely French flavor that sets it apart from the rest of the nation. Perhaps reflecting Yann Martel’s own nomadic childhood, Pi Patel pointedly begins his life in a diverse cultural setting before encountering French, Mexican, Japanese, and Canadian characters along his journey.Life of Pi can be characterized as a postcolonial novel, because of its post-Independence Indian setting as well as its Canadian authorship. Like many postcolonial novels, such as those of Salman Rushdie and Gabriel García Márquez, Life of Pi can also be classified as a work of magical realism, a literary genre in which fantastical elements—such as animals with human personalities or an island with cannibalistic trees—appear in an otherwise realistic setting. Martel’s novel could equally be described as a bildungsroman (a coming-of-age tale) or an adventure story. Life of Pi even flirts with nonfiction genres. The Author’s Note, for example, claims that the story of Piscine Molitor Patel is a true story that the author, Yann Martel, heard while backpacking through Pondicherry, and the novel, with its first-person narrator, is structured as a memoir. At the end of the novel, we are presented with interview transcripts, another genre of nonfiction writing. This mixing of fiction and nonfiction reflects the twist ending of the novel, in which the veracit y of Pi’s fantastical story is called into doubt and the reader, like Pi’s Japanese interrogators, is forced to confront unsettling questions about the nature of truth itself.Many critics have noted the book’s resemblance to Ernest Hemingway’s novel The Old Man and the Sea. Both novels feature an epic struggle between man and beast. In The Old Man and the Sea, a fisherman struggles to pull in a mighty marlin, while in Life of Pi, Pi and Richard Parker struggle for dominance on the lifeboat. Both the fisherman and Pi learn to respect their animal counterparts; each pair is connected in their mutual suffering, strength, and resolve. Although they are opponents, they are also partners, allies, even doubles. Furthermore, both novels emphasize the importance of endurance. Because death and destruction are inevitable, both novels present life as a choice between only two options: defeat or endurance until destruction. Enduring against all odds elevates both human characters to the status of heroes.Another, less flattering comparison has been drawn between Life of Pi and acclaimed Brazilian author Moacyr Scliar’s 1981 novel Max and the Cats. In a 2002interview with , Martel discusses reading an unfavorable review of Scliar’s novel in the New York Times Book Review penned by John Updike and, despite Updike’s disparagement, being entranced by the premise. As was later reported, no such review existed, and John Updike himself claimed no knowledge of Scliar’s novel. The similarities between the two novels are unmistakable: in Max and the Cats, a family of German zookeepers sets sail to Brazil. The ship goes down and only one young man survives, stranded at sea with a wild jaguar. Martel claims never to have read Max and the Cats before beginning to write Life of Pi. He has since blamed his faulty memory for the gaffe and has declined further discussion on the topic. Scliar considered a lawsuit but is said to have changed his mind after a discussion with Martel. Whateverthe real story, Martel menti ons Scliar in his Author’s Note, thanking him for “the spark of life.”In an Author’s Note, an anonymous author figure explains that he traveled from his home in Canada to India because he was fee ling restless. There, while sipping coffee in a café in the town of Pondicherry, he met an elderly man named Francis Adirubasamy who offered to tell him a story fantastic enough to give him faith in God. This story is that of Pi Patel. The author then shifts into the story itself, but not before tell ing his reader that the account will come across more naturally if he tells it in Pi’s own voice.Part One is narrated in the first person by Pi. Pi narrates from an advanced age, looking back at his earlier life as a high school and college student in Toronto, then even further back to his boyhood in Pondicherry. He explains that he has suffered intensely and found solace in religion and zoology. He describes how Francis Adirubasamy, a close business associate of his father’s and a competitive swimming champion, taught him to swim and bestowed upon him his unusual name. Pi is named after the Piscine Molitor, a Parisian swimming club with two pools that Adirubasamy used to frequent. We learn that Pi’s father once ran the Pondicherry Zoo, teaching Pi and his brother, Ravi, about the dangerous nature of animals by feeding a live goat to a tiger before their young eyes. Pi, brought up as a Hindu, discovers Christianity, then Islam, choosing to practice all three religions simultaneously. Motivated by India’s political strife, Pi’s parents decide to move the family to Canada; on June 21, 1977, they set sail in a cargo ship, along with a crew and many cages full of zoo creatures.At the beginning of Part Two, the ship is beginning to sink. Pi clings to a lifeboat and encourages a tiger, Richard Parker, to join him. Then, realizing his mistake in bringing a wild animal aboard, Pi leaps into the ocean. The narrative jumps back in time as Pi describes the explosive noise and chaos of the sinking: crewmembers throw him into a lifeboat, where he soon finds himself alone with a zebra, an orangutan, and a hyena, all seemingly in shock. His family is gone. The storm subsides and Pi contemplates his difficult situation. The hyena kills the zebra and the orangutan, and then—to Pi’s intense surprise—Richard Parker reveals himself: the tiger has been in the bottom of the lifeboat all along. Soon the tiger kills the hyena, and Pi and Richard Parker are alone together at sea. Pi subsists on canned water and filtered seawater, emergency rations, and freshly caught sea life. He also provides for the tiger, whom he masters and trains.The days pass slowly and the lifeboat’s passengers coexist warily. During a bout of temporary blindness brought on by dehydra tion, Pi has a run-in with another blind castaway. The two discuss food and tether their boats to one another. When the blind man attacks Pi, intending to eat him, Richard Parker kills him. Not long after, the boat pulls up to a strange island of trees that grow directly out of vegetation, without any soil. Pi and Richard Parker stay here for a time, sleeping in their boat and exploring the island during the day. Pi discovers a huge colony of meerkats who sleep in the trees and freshwater ponds. One day, Pi finds human teeth in a tree’s fruit and comes to the conclusion that the island eats people. He and Richard Parker head back out to sea, finally washing ashore on a Mexican beach. Richard Parker runs off, and villagers take Pi to a hospital.In Part Three, two officials from the Japanese Ministry of Transport interview Pi about his time at sea, hoping to shed light on the fate of the doomed ship. Pi tells the story as above, but it does not fully satisfy the skeptical men. So he tells it again, this time replacing the animals with humans: a ravenous cook instead of a hyena, a sailor instead of a zebra, and his mother instead of the orangutan. The officials note that the two stories match and that the second is far likelier. In their final report, they commend Pi for living so long with an adult tiger.Piscine Molitor Patel (Pi) - The protagonist of the story. Piscine is the narrator for most of the novel, and his account of his seven months at sea forms the bulk of the story. He gets his unusual name from the French word for pool—and, more specifically, from a pool in Paris in which a close family friend, Francis Adirubasamy, loved to swim. A student of zoology and religion, Pi is deeply intrigued by the habits and characteristics of animals and people.< script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> document.write('<ahref="/DRN/go/133922840/direct;wi.300;hi.250/01/" target="_blank"><imgsrc="/DRN/view/133922840/direct;wi.300;hi.250/01/"/></a>');< /script>< noscript><ahref="/DRN/go/133922840/direct;wi.300;hi.250/01/" target="_blank"><img border="0"src="/DRN/view/133922840/direct;wi.300;hi.250/01/" /></a></noscript>Richard Parker - The Royal Bengal tiger with whom Pi shares his lifeboat. His captor, Richard Parker, named him Thirsty, but a shipping clerk made a mistake and reversed their names. From then on, at the Pondicherry Zoo, he was known as Richard Parker. Weighing 450 pounds and about nine feet long, he kills the hyena on the lifeboat and the blind cannibal. With Pi, however, Richard Parker acts as an omega, or submissive, animal, respecting Pi’s dominance.Read an in-depth analysis of Richard Parker.The Author - The narrator of the (fictitious) Author’s Note, who inserts himself into the narrative at several points throughout the text. Though the author who pens the Author’s Not e never identifies himself by name, there are many clues that indicate it is Yann Martel himself, thinly disguised: he lives in Canada, has published two books, and was inspired to write Pi’s life story during a tr ip to India. Francis Adirubasamy - The el derly man who tells the author Pi’s story during a chance meeting in a Pondicherry coffee shop. He taught Pi to swim as a child and bestowed upon him his unusual moniker. He arranges for the author to meet Pi in person, so as to get a first-person account of his strange and compelling tale. Pi calls him Mamaji, an Indian term that means respected uncle.Ravi - Pi’s older brother. Ravi prefers sports to schoolwork and is quite popular. He teases his younger brother mercilessly over hi s devotion to three religions.Santosh Patel - Pi’s father. He once owned a Madras hotel, but because of his deep interest in animals decided to run the Pondicherry Zoo. A worrier by nature, he teaches his sons not only to care for and control wild animals, but to fear them. Though raised a Hindu, he is not religious and is puzzled by Pi’s adoption of numerous religions. The difficult conditions in India lead him to move his family to Canada.< script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> document.write('<ahref="/DRN/go/133922840/direct;wi.300;hi.250/01/" target="_blank"><imgsrc="/DRN/view/133922840/direct;wi.300;hi.250/01/"/></a>');< /script>< noscript><ahref="/DRN/go/133922840/direct;wi.300;hi.250/01/" target="_blank"><img border="0"src="/DRN/view/133922840/direct;wi.300;hi.250/01/" /></a></noscript>Gita Patel - Pi’s beloved mother and protector. A book lover, she encourages Pi to read widely. Raised Hindu with a Baptist education, she does not subscribe to any religion and questions Pi’s religious declarations. She speaks her mind, letting her husband know when she disagrees with his parenting techniques. When Pi relates another version of his story to his rescuers, she takes the place of Orange Juice on the lifeboat.Satish Kumar - Pi’s atheistic biology teacher at Petit Séminaire, a secondary school in Pondicherry. A polio survivor, he is an odd-looking man, with a body shaped like a triangle. His devotion to the power of scientific inquiry and explanation inspires Pi to study zoology in college.Father Martin - The Catholic priest who introduces Pi to Christianity after Pi wanders into his church. He preaches a message of love. He, the Muslim Mr. Kumar, and the Hindu pandit disagree about whose religion Pi should practice.Satish Kumar - A plain-featured Muslim mystic with the same name as Pi’s biology teacher. He works in a bakery. Like the other Mr. Kumar, this one has a strong effect on Pi’s academic plans: his faith leads Pi to study religion at college.The Hindu Pandit - One of three important religious figures in the novel. Never given a name, he is outraged when Pi, who was raised Hindu, begins practicing other religions. He and the other two religious leaders are quiete d somewhat by Pi’s declaration that he just wants to love God.Meena Patel - Pi’s wife, whom the author meets briefly in Toronto.Nikhil Patel (Nick) - Pi’s son. He plays baseball.Usha Patel - Pi’s young daughter. She is shy but very close to her fathe r.The Hyena - An ugly, intensely violent animal. He controls the lifeboat before Richard Parker emerges.The Zebra - A beautiful male Grant’s zebra. He breaks his leg jumping into the lifeboat. The hyena torments him and eats him alive. Orange Juice - The maternal orangutan that floats to the lifeboat on a raft of bananas. She suffers almost humanlike bouts of loneliness and seasickness. When the hyena attacks her, she fights back valiantly but is nonetheless killed and decapitated.The Blind Frenchman - A fellow castaway whom Pi meets by chance in the middle of the ocean. Driven by hunger and desperation, he tries to kill and cannibalize Pi, but Richard Parker kills him first.Tomohiro Okamoto - An official from the Maritime Department of the Japanese Ministry of Transport, who is investigating the sinking of the Japanese Tsimtsum. Along with his assistant, Atsuro Chiba, Okamoto interviews Pi for three hours and is highly skeptical of his first account.Atsuro Chiba - Okamoto’s assistant. Chiba is the more naïve and trusting of the two Japanese officials, and his inexperience at conducting interviews gets on his superior’s nerves. Chiba agrees with Pi that the version of his ordeal with animals is the better than the one with people.The Cook - The human counterpart to the hyena in Pi’s second story. He is rude and violent and hoards food on the lifeboat. After he kills the sailor and Pi’s mother, Pi stabs him and he dies.The Sailor - The human counterpart to the zebra in Pi’s second story. He is young, beautiful, and exotic. He speaks only Chinese and is very sad and lonely in the lifeboat. He broke his leg jumping off the ship, and it becomes infected. The cook cuts off the leg, and the sailor dies slowly.Piscine Molitor PatelPiscine Molitor Patel is the protagonist and, for most of the novel, the narrator. In the chapters that frame the main story, Pi, as a shy, graying, middle-aged man, tells the author about his early childhood and the shipwreck that changed his life. This narrative device distances the reader from the truth. We don’t know whether Pi’s story is accurate or what pieces to believe. This effect is i ntentional; throughout Pi emphasizes the importance of choosing the better story, believing that imagination trumps cold, hard facts. As a child, he reads widely and embraces many religions and their rich narratives that provide meaning and dimension to life. In his interviews with the Japanese investigators after his rescue, he offers first the more fanciful version of his time at sea. But, at their behest, he then provides an alternative version that is more realistic but ultimately less appealing to both himself and his questioners. Thes tructure of the novel both illustrates Pi’s defining characteristic, his dependence on and love of stories, and highlights th e inherent difficulties in trusting his version of events.< AHREF='/h.click/armN7E4sQUYbYJV6Ts4mZb7RPrJ3WvnXWJCptAv36Y04GbdTsJbWsFkRPQyUtFUWFF0 3rZauWq7tVEQdSTYHRVjZcPbEpStMiUGY55r6pndZaOXaeN2WjZdSVbH2mUHmWZasUd3hXFQ8YrfjXTyMPrMZdUUZbYVtQ3nb BxRVfFrXsvqm//jump/N3941.tribalfushion/B5412027.3;sz=300x250;pc=[TPAS_ID];ord=1974714140?' >< IMG SRC='/ad/N3941.tribalfushion/B5412027.3;sz=300x250;pc=[TPAS_ID];ord=1974714140?'BORDER='0' WIDTH='300' HEIGHT='250' ALT='Advertisement' >< /A><A TARGET="_blank"HREF="/activity;src%3D1263251%3Bmet%3D1%3Bv%3D1%3Bpid%3D62624265%3Baid%3D239803100 %3Bko%3D0%3Bcid%3D41634398%3Brid%3D41652185%3Brv%3D1%3Bcs%3Dc%3Beid1%3D186260%3Becn1%3D1%3Betm1 %3D0%3B_dc_redir%3Durl%3f/click%3Bh%3Dv8/3b1c/7/d3/%2a/f%3B239803100%3B0-0%3B0%3B62624265%3B4307-300/250%3B41634398/41652185/1%3B%3B%7Eokv%3D%3Bpc%3D%5BTPAS_ID%5D%3B%3B%7Esscs%3D%3fhttp://a.tribalfu /h.click/armN7E4sQUYbYJV6Ts4mZb7RPrJ3WvnXWJCptAv36Y04GbdTsJbWsFkRPQyUtFUWFF03rZauWq7tVEQdSTY HRVjZcPbEpStMiUGY55r6pndZaOXaeN2WjZdSVbH2mUHmWZasUd3hXFQ8YrfjXTyMPrMZdUUZbYVtQ3nbBxRVfFrXsvqm/http:// www.americanexpress.ca/RTP_rewards_travel?&PID=124&BUID=CCG&PSKU=C5&CRTV=ComeFly_300x250Exp&AFFID=TF_Travel_Ent_Life_1stImp"> <IMGSRC="/1263251/PID_1587075_1256094086000_BENEFIT_COMEFLY_300x250_v1.jpg" width="300"height="250" BORDER="0" alt="Click Here!"> </A> <IMGSRC="/activity;src=1263251;met=1;v=1;pid=62624265;aid=239803100;ko=0;cid=41634398;rid=41652185;rv =1;×tamp=3816290;eid1=9;ecn1=1;etm1=0;" width="0px" height="0px" style="visibility:hidden" BORDER="0"/> <IMG SRC="" width="0px" height="0px" style="visibility:hidden" BORDER="0"/> <IMG SRC="" width="0px" height="0px" style="visibility:hidden" BORDER="0"/>Though the narrative jumps back and forth in time, the novel traces Pi’s development and maturation in a traditional bildungs roman,or coming-of-age story. Pi is an eager, outgoing, and excitable child, dependent on his family for protection and guidance. In school,his primary concerns involve preventing his schoolmates from mispronouncing his name and learning as much as he can about religion and zoology. But when the ship sinks, Pi is torn from his family and left alone on a lifeboat with wild animals. The disaster serves as the catalyst in his emotional growth; he must now become self-sufficient. Though he mourns the loss of his family and fears for his life, he rises to the challenge. He finds a survival guide and emergency provisions. Questioning his own values, he decides that his vegetarianism is a luxury under the conditions and learns to fish. He capably protects himself from Richard Parker and even assumes a parental relationship with the tiger, providing him with food and keeping him in line. The devastating shipwreck turns Pi into an adult, able to fend for himself out in the world alone.Pi’s belief in God inspires him as a child and helps sustain him while at sea. In Pondicherry, his atheistic biology teacher challenges his Hindu faith in God, making him realize the positive power of belief, the need to overcome the otherwise bleakness of the universe. Motivated to learn more, Pi starts practicing Christianity and Islam, realizing these religions all share the same foundation: belief in a loving higher power. His burgeoning need for spiritual connection deepens while at sea. In his first days on the lifeboat, he almost gives up, unable to bear the loss of his family and unwilling to face the difficulties that still await him. At that point, however, he realizes that the fact he is still alive means that God is with him; he has been given a miracle. This thought gives him strength, and he decides to fight to remain alive. Throughout his adventure, he prays regularly, which provides him with solace, a sense of connection to something greater, and a way to pass the time.Richard ParkerPi’s companion throughout his ordeal at sea is Richard Parker, a 450-pound Royal Bengal tiger. Unlike many novels in which animals speak or act like humans, Richard Parker is portrayed as a real animal that acts in ways true to his species. It can be difficult to accept that a tiger and a boy could exist on a lifeboat alone, however, in the context of the novel, it seems plausible. Captured as a cub, Parker grew up in the zoo and is accustomed to a life in captivity. He is used to zookeepers training and providing for him, so he is able to respond to cues from Pi and submit to his dominance. However, he is no docile house cat. He has been tamed, but he still acts instinctually, swimming for the lifeboat in search of shelter and killing the hyena and the blind castaway for food. When the two wash up on the shore of Mexico, Richard Parker doesn’t draw out his parting with Pi, he simply runs of f into the jungle, never to be seen again.Though Richard Parker is quite fearsome, ironically his presence helps Pi stay alive. Alone on the lifeboat, Pi has many issues to face in addition to the tiger onboard: lack of food and water, predatory marine life, treacherous sea currents, and exposure to the elements. Overwhelmed by the circumstances and terrified of dying, Pi becomes distraught and unable to take action. However, he soon realizes that his most immediate threat is Richard Parker. His other problems now temporarily forgotten, Pi manages, through several training exercises, to dominate Parker. This success gives him confidence, making his other obstacles seem less insurmountable. Renewed, Pi is able to take concrete steps toward ensuring his continued existence: searching for food and keeping himself motivated. Caring and providing for Richard Parker keeps Pi busy and passes the time. Without Richard Parker to challenge and distract him, Pi might have given up on life. After he washes up on land in Mexico, he thanks the tiger for keeping him alive.Richard Parker symbolizes Pi’s most animalistic instincts. Out on the lifeboat, Pi must perform many actions to stay alive th at he would have found unimaginable in his normal life. An avowed vegetarian, he must kill fish and eat their flesh. As time progresses, he becomes more brutish about it, tearing apart birds and greedily stuffing them in his mouth, the way Richard Parker does. After Richard Parker mauls the blind Frenchman, Pi uses the man’s flesh for bait and even eats some of it, becoming cannibalistic in his unrelenting hunger. In his second story to the Japanese investigators, Pi is Richard Parker. He kills his mother’s murderer. Parker is the version of himself that Pi has invented to make his story more palatable, both to himself and to his audience. The brutality of his mother’s death and his own shocking act of revenge are too much for Pi to deal with, and he finds it easier to imagine a tige r as the killer, rather than himself in that role.The Will to LiveLife of Pi is a story about struggling to survive through seemingly insurmountable odds. The shipwrecked inhabitants of the little lifeboat don’t simply acquiesce to their fate: they actively fight against it. Pi abandons his lifelong vegetarianism and eats fish to sustain himself. Orange Juice, the peaceful orangutan, fights ferociously against the hyena. Even the severely wounded zebra battles to stay alive; his slow, painful struggle vividly illustrates the sheer strength of his life force. As Martel makes clear in his novel, living creatures will often do extraordinary, unexpected, and sometimes heroic things to survive. However, they will also do shameful and barbaric things if pressed. The hyena’s treachery and the blind Frenchman’s turn toward cannibalism show just how far creatures will go when faced with the possibility of extinction. At the end of the novel, when Pi raises the possibility that the fierce tiger, Richard Parker, is actually an aspect of his own personality, and that Pi himself is responsible for some of the horrific eventshe has narrated, the reader is forced to decide just what kinds of actions are acceptable in a life-or-death situation.The Importance of StorytellingLife of Pi is a story within a story within a story. The novel is framed by a (fictional) note from the author, Yann Martel, who describes how he first came to hear the fantastic tale of Piscine Molitor Patel. Within the framework of Martel’s narration is Pi’s fan tastical first-person account of life on the open sea, which forms the bulk of the book. At the end of the novel, a transcript taken from an interrogation of Pi reveals the possible “true” story within that story: that there were no animals at all, and that Pi had spent those 227 days with other human survivors who all eventually perished, leaving only himself.Pi, however, is not a liar: to him, the various versions of his story each contain a different kind of truth. One version may be factually true, but the other has an emotional or thematic truth that the other cannot approach. Throughout the novel, Pi expresses disdain for rationalists who only put their faith in “dry, yeastless factuality,” when stories—which can amaze and inspire listeners, and are bound to linger longer in the imagination—are, to him, infinitely superior.Storytelling is also a means of survival. The “true” events of Pi’s sea voyage are too horrible to contemplate directly: any young boy would go insane if faced with the kinds of acts Pi (indirectly) tells his integrators he has witnessed. By recasting his account as an incredible tale about humanlike animals, Pi doesn’t have to face the true cruelty human beings are actually capable of. Simil arly, by creating the character of Richard Parker, Pi can disavow the ferocious, violent side of his personality that allowed him to survive on the ocean. Even this is not, technically, a lie in Pi’s eyes. He believes that the tiger-like aspect of his nature and the civilized, human aspect stand in tense opposition and occasional partnership with one another, just as the boy Pi and the tiger Richard Parker are both enemies and allies.The Nature of Religious BeliefLife of Pi begins with an old man in Pondicherry who tells the narrator, “I have a story that will make you believe in God.” Storytelling and religious belief are two closely linked ideas in the novel. On a literal level, each of Pi’s three religions, Hinduism, C hristianity, and Islam, come with its own set of tales and fables, which are used to spread the teachings and illustrate the beliefs of the faith. Pi enjoys the wealth of stories, but he also senses that, as Father Martin assured him was true of Christianity, each of these stories might simply be aspects of a greater, universal story about love.Stories and religious beliefs are also linked in Life of Pi because Pi asserts that both require faith on the part of the listener or devotee. Surprisingly for such a religious boy, Pi admires atheists. To him, the important thing is to believe in something, and Pi can appreciate an atheist’s ability to believe in the absence of God with no concrete proof of that absence. Pi has nothing but d isdain, however, for agnostics, who claim that it is impossible to know either way, and who therefore refrain from making a definitive statement on the question of God. Pi sees this as evidence of a shameful lack of imagination. To him, agnostics who cannot make a leap of faith in either direction are like listeners who cannot appreciate the non-literal truth a fictional story might provide.。

古典悲剧通常就是阿喀琉斯故事的一个变种。

(如Superman)“阿基琉斯之踵”（Achilles heel）来自于希腊神话的故事，表示“致命伤、最大的弱点”之类的含义。

相传，英雄Achilles还是婴儿的时候，他的母亲把他浸泡在圣河中，因此Achilles全身刀枪不入。

由于是倒着浸入河中，只有脚跟露在外面，所以脚跟处成为他的弱点。

后来，特洛依战争的时候，Achilles 就是被射中脚踝身亡。

2．康迪德Candide故事原型：一个纯真无邪的乐天派英雄踏上陌生的土地，出人意料地大获全胜。

(如Forrest Gump, Mr.Bean, A beautiful Mind, Indiana Jones)《老实人康迪德》(法)伏尔泰著《康迪德》是法国18世纪启蒙主义的代言人、著名讽刺作家伏尔泰的作品，通常被译为《老实人》（1759年）。

But if it is only a vague inclination one poor sonnet will kill it.Darcy: So what do you recommend to encourage affection?Elizabeth: Dancing. Even if one's partner is barely tolerable.Jane: Mr Bingley is just what a young man ought to be. Sensible,good-humoured...Elizabeth: Handsome, conveniently rich...Jane: You know perfectly well I do not believe marriage should be driven by thoughts of money.Elizabeth: I agree entirely. Only the deepest love will persuade me into matrimony, which is why I'll end up an old maid.Jane: Do you really believe he liked me, Lizzie?Elizabeth: Jane, he danced with you most of the night, and stared at you for the rest of it. But I give you leave to like him. You've liked many a stupider person. You're a great deal too apt to like people in general, you know. All the world is good and agreeable in your eyes.Jane: Not his friend. I still can't believe what he said about you.Elizabeth: Mr. Darcy? I could more easily forgive his vanity had he not wounded mine. But no matter, I doubt we shall ever speak again.妙词佳句，活学活用1. adoreAdore 有好几种意思，我们一起来看一下：A.

•
• 故事发展到这里，看起来只是一个普通的人与动物的纠结求生历险记。但剧中当Pi为了应付日本企业调查而杜撰出第二故事之后，电影过往中的那一个个带有意像呈现的镜头便被赋予了意义。另一个看起来血淋淋且残酷无情的故事也被Pi讲述的了出来（虽然电影中没有在去描写）。用来应付检查的第二个故事是这样的：他说其实救生艇上没有动物，只有那个法国厨子、一个断了腿的水手、还有Pi和他的母亲。水手断腿感染，眼看没救，厨子便杀了水手并吃了他。Pi的母亲怒斥并打了厨子。厨子非常的生气，将母亲杀死。Pi非常的恐惧，最终在忍无可忍下杀掉了并吃了厨子。最终他活了下来。这个故事伴随着两个日本人惊恐的表情讲完了，也许我们理所当然的会以为他们会选择这个第二个故事。但是当那位找寻灵感的作家打开当时事件的档案时，写在后面的却是“最后他和这只动物共同相伴走到了最后”这样一句话，显然他们采用了第一个不那么残酷而残忍的故事。接着Pi又问来访的那位作家，这两个故事，你相信哪个？作家说，有老虎的那个（第一个）。Pi回答：所以你跟随上帝。

基本剧情：
• • • • • Pi是成长在印度的一名少年，特殊的成长环境让他在少年时期建立了3种不同的宗教信仰 Pi的父亲经营着一个动物园，这使得他从小就很了解动物的习性。在Pi17岁那年，他的父亲决定举家移民加拿大并在那里卖掉动物园里的动物，以追求更好的生活，而他也必须离开他的初恋情人在船上他们遇见一位残忍成性的法国厨师和拥有佛教信仰的东方水手不幸的是，他们的轮船在暴风雨中沉没，除了Pi，所有的人都遇难了。随后便开始了Pi的“奇幻漂流” Pi和救生艇被船上掉落的斑马砸进海里，他侥幸落在救生艇的舱盖布上得以生存。于是，他开始了在海上漂泊227天的历程，与他同时处在救生艇中的，除了那只断了一条腿的斑马外，还有一只鬣狗、一只猩猩以及一只成年孟加拉虎，由于海关官员的失误，这只孟加拉虎注册了一个正儿八经的绅士的名字：理查德•帕克。在救生艇上的最初三天，鬣狗活吃了斑马，咬死了猩猩，老虎理查德•帕克又杀死了鬣狗。接着，17岁的少年Pi海上生存的故事便开始了，接下来这个少年在海上求生的故事，就是如何对付凶猛的老虎理查德-帕克的故事。自知暂时无法战胜老虎的Pi最终选择与它一起面对漂流生活。7个月中，他参照救生艇中的求生手册，以及艇中的补给，使用一切海上生存技能喂饱老虎，也让自己活下来。在Pi与老虎所剩的食物耗尽后，陷入绝望的他们已准备从容赴死。但奇迹的是他们随着小船漂到了一座天堂般的岛屿。在短暂的停留休整之后，他发现这儿竟是个食人岛。Pi与老虎再次开始了漂流，直到在墨西哥的海滩上获救，而那只老虎却头也不回地步入到茫茫的丛林中消失了。在Pi获救后，轮船所属的日本企业来向他调查沉船事故的经过。Pi向他们讲述了这个故事，但是他们却无法相信。他们希望Pi讲一个没有奇幻小岛，没有动物的，“真实”的故事。

有关《Life-of-》电影观后感Pi0、今天看了《Life of Pi》。

一部关于宗教。

关于神的片子。

记忆中。

第一次让我开始思考宗教与科学的关系。

是因为Dan Brown 的小说《失落的秘符》然后生活中一些小的思考。

以及电影《黑客帝国》。

《楚门的世界》进一步火上浇油。

基本定型了我现在的认识。

1、我不愿意和不懂物理的人来谈论上帝。

这并不是说物理学家必然不相信上帝。

很多物理学家的研究动力就是解释上帝。

而是说。

我觉得对上帝的相信与否。

应建立在对自然的理解上。

而不是仅盲目的相信。

相信上帝的人说。

上帝创造自然。

不信上帝的人说。

自然就在这里。

但无论如何。

你得先了解自然。

盲目相信上帝人。

会感慨于苹果竖直落下。

这是神安排好的。

而相信上帝的物理学家。

则会感慨于苹果按照公式1/2gt人2 丝毫不差的落下。

如果不是被神安排好的。

怎么会这么巧。

曾经一位无神论者问欧拉。

为什么上帝会存在。

欧拉道：先生，eA( n i) + 1 = 0 ，所以上帝存在。

e=2.718281827…，无限不循环。

一片混沌。

n =3.14159265...，无限不循环。

一片混沌。

i，纯粹人造的虚数单位。

1，宇宙间最简单的的符号。

这四个东西通过这么简单的公式联系在一起。

这作为相信上帝的理由。

我觉得是充分的。

这里突然想到一点题外话。

pi究竟是什么样的存在。

它的来源是圆的周长与直径的比。

所以。

这是一个与空间的几何相关的量。

在另一个曲率的空间中。

pi就不是3.1415... 了。

可能会更大或者更小。

比如在黑洞附近。

但是。

另一方面。

pi又可以写成无穷级数的和。

比如著名的piA2/6= 自然数平方倒数和。

这似乎是一个不牵涉到宇宙几何的东西。

只牵涉到最基本的自然数以及纯粹数学中的代数运算。

而这在任何宇宙中都是一样的。

我觉得。

所以。

这是不是说明。

我们的宇宙真的就那么巧？与其说数学碰巧解释了宇宙。

不如说。

不符合数学的那些宇宙。

都是不存在的。

很多人会说宇宙是数学的。

《Lifeofpi》，生命的旅程

《Lifeofpi》，生命的旅程《Life of pi 》，生命的旅程李安的电影是中式的，内敛的。

如果你冲着奇幻而去，恐怕要失望了，影片不乏奇幻惊险的场景，但故事总是会不经意地将你拉出场景的冲击，显得平实无华，倒是派在幼年时对印度教中黑天之神的探索，青年时对少女舞者舞蹈的痴迷，会激起你的猎奇与渴求，引领你进入宇宙与宗教的领域。

当然，李安的电影也是意味深长的，一场自我的探索之旅，从离岸的印度洋，迎着湿润的海风，缓缓启航。

较之中文的译名，《life of pi》的片名更贴近影片的思想。

派，拥有代表人类文明的名字，同时也自幼开始接触神论的教化。

派对三个教派的信奉，实质是对未知世界的一种探索，父亲是一个无神论者，他主张派相信科学，认知现实。

在派单纯地想与老虎为友时，父亲坚定地将老虎捕杀羚羊这一残酷的现实，展现给派，这深刻的一幕，也成为派在后来的生死劫难中得以生存的重要课程。

纯真和信仰，人生的教导总是以美好开头，而真正的入世应该是以一场严酷的自我洗礼为开端。

派的奇幻漂流何不是一段人生里程的缩影？教义的信条再纯洁高尚，也需要通过个体的经历、挣扎和思索之后，方能纳其精髓，弃之糟粕。

正如派的父亲所说“我宁愿你用你的经验来反驳我，也不希望你说一堆空泛的教条”。

是，那些单纯的信仰，脱离了现实的依托，是一种虚无，是一种危险，甚至可以转化为恶。

那么现实的世界是什么？自我又是什么？“从老虎的眼睛里你只能看到你自己的影子”，派的父亲告诉他。

是，派在极度绝望和无助中，看到了自己心中的老虎。

老虎不是恶，它只是文明社会的一个反相，是自然社会里的人性自我。

在文明社会里被隐藏和消解的本性，在特殊境地里被唤醒，派感到了不安和恐惧。

他试图远离，却又无法远离，在孤寂与无望中，派只能与老虎共存。

这是一场生死的较量，无际的大海，孤寂的生存，比海难的瞬间抨击更显漫长和可怕。

因为信奉教义，派是一个素食者，但为了生存，他不得不背离自己的信仰，杀生食鱼，派的内心充满了无助与痛苦，他浑身战栗而哭泣。
