哈克贝里·费恩原型竟是流浪汉

7reading.online

一、契诃夫戏剧作品不追求离奇曲折的情节,他善于描写平凡的日常生活和人物,以此来反映当时广阔的社会生活。如他的《万尼亚舅舅》表现出那个时代的人们在探索新的生活和道路上的迷惘和追求过程。

1. Chekhov's plays do not pursue bizarre or complicated plots. He excels at depicting ordinary daily life and characters to reflect the broader social realities of his time. For instance, his "Uncle Vanya" portrays people's confusion and pursuit while exploring new lives and paths during that era.

二、吉勒鲁普生活在当时被称为“诗人和思想家的祖国”的德国,他受席勒、歌德及康德等德国诗人的影响较大。1882年,他出版的小说《日耳曼人的弟子》较能代表他的写作风格和创作思想。

2. Gjellerup lived in Germany, then known as the "land of poets and thinkers," and was significantly influenced by German poets and philosophers like Schiller, Goethe, and Kant. His novel "The Teuton's Apprentice," published in 1882, well represents his writing style and creative philosophy.

三、挪威作家比昂松在1895年以现代阶级斗争为题创作了大型话剧《凡人难及》的续篇,据说是世界文学史上的首创。

3. In 1895, the Norwegian writer Bjørnson created a sequel to his large-scale play "Beyond Human Might" focusing on modern class struggle, said to be a first in world literary history.

四、哈克贝里·费恩是活跃在《汤姆·索亚历险记》和《哈克贝里·费恩历险记》中的主人公。马克·吐温自称,“费恩”这个姓,取自他幼年时的老家密苏里州汉尼拔小镇上一个流浪汉醉鬼的姓,但性格上的原型是另一个流浪汉的,吐温赞他是新区内“唯一一个真正特立独行的人物”。

4. Huckleberry Finn is the protagonist featured in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" and "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn." Mark Twain claimed that the surname "Finn" was taken from a town drunkard's name in his childhood hometown of Hannibal, Missouri, but the character's personality was modeled after another wanderer, whom Twain praised as "the only really independent person" in the new settlement.

五、而哈克贝里乃是一种野生的浆果,可做啤酒。吐温为本书主人公取这个名,可见赋予主人公粗犷色彩与平民色彩。

5. "Huckleberry" refers to a type of wild berry used in making beer. By naming his protagonist this, Twain endowed the character with a rugged and commonfolk quality.
