Milton's Paradise Lost is one of the greatest epic poems in the English language. It tells the story of the Fall of Man, a tale of immense drama and excitement, of rebellion and treachery, of innocence pitted against corruption, in which God and Satan fight a bitter battle for control of mankind's destiny. The struggle rages across three worlds - heaven, hell, and earth - as Satan and his band of rebel angels plot their revenge against God. At the center of the conflict are Adam and Eve, motivated by all too human temptations, but whose ultimate downfall is unyielding love.Marked by Milton's characteristic erudition is a work epic both in scale and, notoriously, in ambition. For nearly 350 years it has held generation upon generation of scholars, students and readers in rapt attention and its profound influence can be seen in almost every corner of Western culture.

《纳尔齐斯与歌尔德蒙》把故事和人物安排在中世纪：自幼失去母亲的修道院学生歌尔德蒙立志侍奉上帝，他的老师和朋友纳尔齐斯却劝说他放弃苦修和戒条的束缚，回归母亲赋予他的本性之中，成为灵感充沛的人。于是歌尔德蒙听从了他的劝告，开始流浪的生涯。自从爱欲被一位吉卜赛女郎所唤醒，歌尔德蒙的身体和灵魂就经历了无数次爱情与背叛，争夺与死亡，浸透了红尘的气味，也烙下了许多细微、优美而沧桑的感触。直到有一天，他被一座圣母像的美所震撼，激起了他创造的欲望。于是歌尔德蒙师从雕刻家，沉潜到雕塑艺术中。历经千回百折，他又回到自己的挚友和师长纳尔齐斯的身边，两人分别以灵感和理性启发对方，终于使歌尔德蒙掌握了化瞬间为永恒的艺术法则，雕出了以他的恋人丽迪亚为原型的完美塑像圣母玛利亚。在艺术创造的过程中，不羁的天性仍然驱使他远离静态的生活，去追逐不道德的艳遇，去放逐自己的躯体，直到它衰老、死亡，直到它已穷尽世间的所有奇遇，直到自己不再渴求任何幸福。歌尔德蒙死在理性的兄长纳尔齐斯身旁，死在对母亲和死亡的大彻大悟中，虽然他没有完成对夏娃母亲的雕塑，但是他没有任何遗憾。《纳尔齐斯与歌尔德蒙》是一部奇特的小说，具有多重释义的可能：它探讨了理性人生与感性人生之间的复杂关系；呼唤从父性文化向母性文化传统的回归；探求人性内部的和谐；但从总体上来看，它是一部在哲学层次上探讨生命永恒的意义的小说。an ascetic monk; a rigorous intellectual remains in the monastery to become an abbot; the epitome of the masculine, analytical mind.

作者 : 乔治·奥威尔
奥威尔的作品，不仅有远见卓识的政治寓言，更透出一股浓浓的对人类灵魂的关怀和对普通人的深爱。据说奥威尔幼时长得极丑，可想而知的成为了一个一个不合群的孩子，无法融入他所出生的上流社会。也许正是这种孤独培养出他独立思考和观察的能力，也让他接近下层的普通民众，体验他们的生活，关爱普通人的精神世界。《上来透口气》中的主人公是一个处在低层社会中的小推销员，他一直在压抑苦闷的生活中忍受和挣扎，终于有一天他决定不顾一切回自己美丽的家乡透口气。因为在他的记忆中，那里有一大片一大片的山毛榉树林，树上发着星星点点的新芽，阳光投下的影子在树叶间互相追逐，晾在路边的干草弥漫在整个村庄，还有那个有着硕大黑鱼穿梭的池塘。但他回去之后却看到他的故乡成了一个大规模的工业城镇，整片整片相连的是一个模样的鲜红色屋顶，破旧的被熏黑的院墙、肮脏的河流和简陋的街巷，这个想上来透口气的可怜人最终发现原来根本没有空气可透。在中国日益工业化、城市化的今天，几乎每个人的家乡都遭遇了和小说中描述的同样的沦落。当我们发现儿时碧水蓝天的故乡变成了一个个烟囱和一栋栋灰色的楼房，当我们发现已经无处透口气，当我们在工业化的社会中迷失了自我……也许到了该好好思考一下的时候：究竟什么是我们真正需要的？当付出了一切，才发现追求的只是最初所拥有的东西，会不会太晚了呢？
