作者简介

William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in April 1564, and his birth is traditionally celebrated on April 23. The facts of his life, known from surviving documents, are sparse. He was one of eight children born to John Shakespeare, a merchant of some standing in his community. William probably went to the King's New School in Stratford, but he had no university education. In November 1582, at the age of eighteen, he married Anne Hathaway, eight years his senior, who was pregnant with their first child, Susanna. She was born on May 26, 1583. Twins, a boy, Hamnet ( who would die at age eleven), and a girl, Judith, were born in 1585. By 1592 Shakespeare had gone to London working as an actor and already known as a playwright. A rival dramatist, Robert Greene, referred to him as "an upstart crow, beautified with our feathers." Shakespeare became a principal shareholder and playwright of the successful acting troupe, the Lord Chamberlain's Men (later under James I, called the King's Men). In 1599 the Lord Chamberlain's Men built and occupied the Globe Theater in Southwark near the Thames River. Here many of Shakespeare's plays were performed by the most famous actors of his time, including Richard Burbage, Will Kempe, and Robert Armin. In addition to his 37 plays, Shakespeare had a hand in others, including Sir Thomas More and The Two Noble Kinsmen, and he wrote poems, including Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece. His 154 sonnets were published, probably without his authorization, in 1609. In 1611 or 1612 he gave up his lodgings in London and devoted more and more time to retirement in Stratford, though he continued writing such plays as The Tempest and Henry VII until about 1613. He died on April 23 1616, and was buried in Holy Trinity Church, Stratford. No collected edition of his plays was published during his life-time, but in 1623 two members of his acting company, John Heminges and Henry Condell, put together the great collection now called the First Folio.

精彩书评

Grade 5-8-Skillfully read by Claire Higgins, Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet will hold listeners spellbound as they become involved in the feud between the Capulets and the Montagues and in Romeo and Juliet's plight of love. Higgins' reading is very natural, and her voice is exceedingly pleasant to listen to. The cassette includes a plot summary, an introduction to Shakespeare by Leon Garfield, as well as supplementary information about Shakespeare and his writings by Dr. Rex Gibson, all read by Simon Russell Beale. This additional information is very worthwhile and will increase the listener's understanding of Shakespeare and why he continues to be important in literature. Peter Hutchins arranged the period background music. The technical qualities are excellent, and the teaching objectives are met. This program is appropriate for individual or group listening, and the additional information will provide an excellent springboard for discussion. A superior acquisition for both public and school libraries with audio collections.

Act One

SCENE ONE

Verona. A Public Place. Enter Sampson and Gregory, armed with swords and bucklers

sampson. Gregory, o' my word, we 'll not carry coals.

gregory. No, for then we should be colliers.

sampson. I mean, an we be in choler, we 'll draw.

gregory. Ay, while you live, draw your neck out o' the collar.

sampson. I strike quickly, being moved.

gregory. But thou art not quickly moved to strike.

sampson. A dog of the house of Montague moves me.

gregory. To move is to stir, and to be valiant is to stand; therefore, if thou art moved, thou runnest away.

sampson. A dog of that house shall move me to stand: I will take the wall of any man or maid of Montague's.

gregory. That shows thee a weak slave; for the weakest goes to the wall.

sampson. 'Tis true; and therefore women, being the weaker vessels, are ever thrust to the wall: therefore I will push Montague's men from the wall, and thrust his maids to the wall.

gregory. The quarrel is between our masters and us their men.

sampson. 'Tis all one, I will show myself a tyrant: when I have fought with the men, I will be cruel with the maids; I will cut off their heads.

gregory. The heads of the maids?

sampson. Ay, the heads of the maids, or their maiden-heads; take it in what sense thou wilt.

gregory. They must take it in sense that feel it.

sampson. Me they shall feel while I am able to stand; and 'tis known I am a pretty piece of flesh.

gregory. 'Tis well thou art not fish; if thou hadst, thou hadst been poor John. Draw thy tool; here comes two of the house of the Montagues.

Enter Abraham and Balthasar

sampson. My naked weapon is out; quarrel, I will back thee.

gregory. How! turn thy back and run?

sampson. Fear me not.

《傲慢与偏见》 作者：简·奥斯汀 出版信息：[此处可根据实际情况添加出版年份、出版社等信息] 书籍类型：经典文学/浪漫小说/讽刺小说 页数：约 400 页 --- 简介 《傲慢与偏见》是简·奥斯汀的代表作之一，这部小说以其精妙的社会洞察力、栩栩如生的人物塑造以及对婚姻、阶级和道德观念的深刻探讨，至今仍是世界文学宝库中不可或缺的瑰宝。故事以英国乡村望族班内特家的生活为中心，通过对伊丽莎白·班内特这位智慧、活泼而又带有一丝叛逆精神的女性的细致描摹，展现了十九世纪初英国摄政时期（Regency Era）的社会风貌和人情世故。 故事的开端，围绕着班内特家五位待字闺阁的女儿展开。母亲班内特太太最大的心愿，便是将她们一一嫁入体面的家庭，确保家族未来的经济保障。当富有且英俊的单身绅士查尔斯·宾利先生带着他的高傲朋友弗里茨·达西先生来到邻近的尼日斐庄园时，整个乡村社交圈为之轰动。 宾利先生的出现，立即吸引了长女简——一位温柔、美丽、性情极其和顺的女孩。两人之间迅速产生了情愫。然而，故事的核心冲突，却围绕着二女儿伊丽莎白和达西先生之间的复杂关系展开。 达西先生，无疑是那个时代社会地位的巅峰代表。他拥有巨额的财富和宏伟的庄园，但他那份与生俱来的优越感，让他显得孤僻、冷漠，甚至可以说是傲慢。在初次舞会上，他拒绝与伊丽莎白共舞，并轻蔑地评价她“尚可容忍，但不足以动摇我的决心”，这番话被伊丽莎白偶然听到。 伊丽莎白·班内特，恰恰是一个不肯屈服于世俗眼光、敢于质疑权威的女性。她机智、言辞犀利，拥有敏锐的洞察力，但她也有着年轻人的局限性——容易根据第一印象下结论，并沉浸于自己的判断之中，这便是她的“偏见”。达西的傲慢激起了她的强烈反感，她立刻将达西视为一个品味低劣、令人讨厌的贵族代表。 奥斯汀的叙事技巧高超地利用了“误解”与“反思”的循环，推动情节发展。围绕在两位主角周围的人物，如对简怀有不良居心的花花公子韦翰先生，他的出现进一步加深了伊丽莎白对达西的误解。韦翰以其迷人的外表和悲惨的身世故事，成功赢得了伊丽莎白的同情和信任，而他提供的“证据”——声称达西剥夺了他应得的遗产——则被伊丽莎白视为达西品性卑劣的铁证。 矛盾在双方的激烈冲突中达到高潮。达西先生，在不情愿地承认自己被伊丽莎白的智慧和活力深深吸引后，向她提出了求婚。这场求婚，与其说是浪漫的表白，不如说更像是一场居高临下的宣告。达西坦率地指出了班内特家族的社会地位低下、亲戚的失礼行为，并强调他是怀着巨大的痛苦才克服了这些障碍。这番“傲慢”的求婚彻底激怒了伊丽莎白。她以极其尖刻的言辞拒绝了他，指责他毁了简和宾利的幸福，并残忍地对待了韦翰。 达西的回应是一封长信，这封信是小说中至关重要的转折点。信中，达西详细解释了自己干预简与宾利婚事的原因——他认为简对宾利的感情不够真挚，并且担心班内特家族的混乱会玷污宾利的名声。更重要的是，信中揭露了韦翰的真实面目：他不仅挥霍了遗产，还企图引诱达西年仅十五岁的妹妹乔治安娜，意图侵吞她的财产。 这封信如同一记重锤，敲碎了伊丽莎白的偏见。她被迫审视自己的判断，意识到自己是多么的武断和盲目。她认识到，自己的智慧和机敏，在面对刻意伪装的“魅力”时，是多么的不堪一击。 小说的后半部分，聚焦于伊丽莎白对自身错误的修正和达西对傲慢态度的转变。一次在达西的宏伟庄园彭伯利（Pemberley）的意外拜访，展现了达西在家乡的另一面。在这里，伊丽莎白看到了他作为一位善良的主人、一个受人尊敬的兄弟的形象，这与她想象中的冷酷贵族判若两人。 然而，新的危机再次降临。班内特家的小女儿、轻浮的莉迪亚与韦翰私奔。这件事在当时对家族声誉是毁灭性的打击，足以断送其他姐妹嫁入豪门的希望。正当班内特家陷入绝望时，一个不为人知的秘密被揭开：是达西先生出面，用自己的财富和影响力，找到了这对私奔的男女，并付出了巨大的代价，迫使韦翰娶了莉迪亚，从而保全了班内特家的名誉。达西的这一行为，完全出于对伊丽莎白的深情，他没有求取任何回报或赞扬。 当伊丽莎白得知真相后，她对达西的感情彻底转变为深厚的敬爱与感激。与此同时，宾利先生在达西的鼓励和撮合下，重新向简求婚。 最终，达西先生再次向伊丽莎白求婚。这一次，没有了先前的误解和骄傲，只有真诚的爱意和相互的理解。伊丽莎白坦然接受，并承认自己当初的偏见是多么的愚蠢。 《傲慢与偏见》不仅仅是一个爱情故事，它更是一部对社会风俗的精妙讽刺剧。奥斯汀以幽默、机智的笔触，描绘了社会阶级之间的隔阂、女性在婚姻市场中的困境，以及维护个人尊严的重要性。通过伊丽莎白和达西这对“冤家”，小说揭示了一个永恒的主题：真正的爱情和幸福，建立在相互尊重、坦诚沟通和自我反省的基础之上，而非财富、地位或第一印象所能决定的。这部作品的魅力在于，它既是对那个时代的精确记录，也是对人类情感永恒困境的深刻洞察。读者跟随伊丽莎白的视角，经历了一场从偏见到理解、从误解到真爱的蜕变之旅。
