内容简介

Part of Penguin's beautiful hardback "Clothbound Classics" series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. In Herman Melville's "Moby-Dick", Captain Ahab is an eerily compelling madman who focuses his distilled hatred and suffering (and that of generations before him) into the pursuit of a creature as vast, dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. More than just a novel of adventure, this is a haunting social commentary populated with some of the most enduring characters in literature. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour, "Moby Dick" is a profound and timeless inquiry into character, faith and the nature of perception.

作者简介

Herman Melville, though not appreciated in his own time, is now regarded as one of America's greatest novelists. Much of the material for his novels was drawn from his own experience as a seaman. He wrote his masterpiece Moby Dick in 1851and died in1891. Andrew Delbanco is Professor of English & Comparative Literature at Columbia University. Tom Quirk is Professor of English at the University of Missouri-Columbia.

精彩书评

"A masterpiece" Guardian "A great book...a deep great artist"
—— D.H. Lawrence

"A wonderful delight"
—— Nathaniel Philbrick

"Moby Dick is my favourite novel, bar none. It works on so many levels. It taught me that you can have a top layer of narrative-like the seafaring story-and then below that all those wonderful, rich, symbolic things going on"
—— Clive Barker

"To convey an adequate idea of a book of such various merits as that which the author of Typee and Omoo has here placed before the reading public, is impossible in the scope of a review. High philosophy, liberal feeling, abstruse metaphysics popularly phrased, soaring speculation, a style as many-coloured as the theme, yet always good, and often admirable; fertile fancy, ingenious construction, playful learning, and an unusual power of enchaining the interest, and rising to the verge of the sublime, without overpassing that narrow boundary which plunges the ambitious penman into the ridiculous; all these are possessed by Herman Melville, and exemplified in these volumes"
——London Morning Advertiser, October 24 1851

This is the novel Dickens regarded as his 'favourite child' and is considered his most autobiographical. As David recounts his experiences from childhood to the discovery of his vocation as a successful novelist， Dickens draws openly and revealingly on his own life. Among the gloriously vivid cast of characters are Rosa Dartle， Dora， Steerforth， and the 'umble Uriah Heep， along with Mr Micawber， a portrait of Dickens's own father which evokes a mixture of love， nostalgia and guilt.

《坎特伯雷故事》是一部诗体故事集，大部分以韵诗形式写成。全书收有一篇总引和二十三篇故事，其中散文两篇，其余都是诗体。讲述了一群香客到坎特伯雷城去朝圣的路上，为解闷而各人所说的奇异故事。这群人来自社会各阶层，有教士、武士、修女、大学生、工匠等等，他们的故事也广泛地反映了当时的社会风貌。作品以幽默和讽刺为基调，刻画了不同阶层的人物，讽刺封建社会的丑恶，揭露社会的腐朽，反对禁欲主义，宣扬世俗享乐。其间以短小的戏剧场面串连，故事的内容和文体各异，并符合每一个讲述者的身份。作品生动地描绘了十四世纪英国的社会生活，体现了反封建倾向和人文主义思想
