遠(yuǎn)大前程:Great expectations(英文版)
是英國19世紀(jì)著名作家查爾斯·狄更斯的后期作品,也是他思想上最為成熟的作品之一,,與他所寫的其他涉及孤兒題材的小說一樣,,書中以充滿同情和細(xì)致入微的筆觸塑造了喬、匹普和畢蒂等樸實善良的小人物,,但不同的是,,作家那時對社會和人生有了更深刻的體驗,以往貫穿于作品中的幽默譏諷風(fēng)格逐漸淡化,,在這部小說里呈現(xiàn)出狄更斯更趨成熟的人生觀,。

Thomas Hardy's final novel "Jude the Obscure" began as a serial publication on December 1894 before being published in book form the following year. It is the story of its titular character Jude Fawley, a young lower-class man with dreams of being a scholar, and his relationships with his wife, Arabella, and his free-spirited cousin, Sue Bridehead. The novel follows the life of Jude from his youth living in a village in southern England where he works in a bakery and studies Classical Greek and Latin in his spare time with hopes of one day becoming a scholar at Christminster, a fictional city modeled after Oxford. His dreams are dashed however when he becomes ensnared by deceit into marriage with Arabella Donn, a coarse and superficial girl. What follows is a classic and tragic tale that plays upon many themes, principally of which is the idea that one's ruinous downfall is the product of having lived a sinful life. Having been harshly criticized in its day for its scandalous portrayals, "Jude the Obscure" has since been recognized as one of Hardy's finest and most intricate works.
