內容簡介
《遠大前程》是狄更斯成熟的作品之一,是他比較晚期的作品。狄更斯經曆瞭豐富的人間生活後,對人,對周圍環境,對自己的生活經曆都有瞭深刻的認識,而所有他成熟的思想認識都匯總在《遠大前程》一書中。這部作品原題名是Great Expectations,意思是指一筆遺産,中國把它譯成“遠大前程”。這個譯名給讀者一種印象,即作品的主人公是有遠大前程的。而事實上,這個“遠大前程”是帶諷刺意義的,應該說這部作品的主題決非僅僅是寫孤兒皮普想當上等人的理想幻滅的故事,如果這樣理解,就領會錯瞭狄更斯創作這部作品的意義。皮普生活在姐姐傢裏,生活艱苦,他的理想是當一名像姐夫一樣的鐵匠,他沒有想當上等人。後來他之所以想當上等人是因為環境的改變。狄更斯的哲學思想之一是環境對人思想的影響。不同的環境可以造就成不同的人。皮普的整個發展過程是符閤一般人性理論的。

精彩書摘
《遠大前程(英文版)》:
MY father's family name being Pirrip, and my Christian name Philip, my infant tongue could make of both names nothing longer or more explicit than Pip. So, I called myself Pip, and came to be called Pip.
I give Pirrip as my father's family name, on the authority of his tombstone and my sister-Mrs. Joe Gargery, who married the blacksnuth. As I never saw my father-or my mother, and never saw any likeness of either of them (for their days were long before the days of photographs), my first fancies regarding what they were like were unreasonably derived from their tombstones. The shape of the letters on my father's, gave me an odd idea that he was a square, stout, dark man, with curly black hair. From the character and turn of the inscription, "Also Georgiana Wife of the Above,"I drew a cluldish conclusion that my mother was freckled and sickly. To five little stone lozenges, each about a foot and a half long, which were arranged in a neat row beside their grave, and were sacred to the memory of five little brothers ofmine,-who gave up trying to get a living, exceedingly early in that universal struggle,-I am indebted for a beliefl religiously entertained that they had all been born on their backs with their hands in their trousers-pockets, and had never taken them out in this state of existence.
Ours was the marsh country, down by the river, within, as the river wound, twenty miles of the sea. My first most vivid and broad impression of the identity of things, seems to me to have been gained on a memorable raw afternoon towards evening. At such a time I found out for certain that tlus bleak place overgrown with nettles was the churchyard; and that Plulip Pirrip, late of this parish, and also Georgiana wife of the above, were dead and buried; and that Alexander, Bartholomew, Abraham, Tobias, and Roger, infant children of the aforesaid, were also dead and buried, and that the dark flat wilderness beyond the churchyard, intersected with dikes and mounds and gates, with scattered cattle feeding on it, was the marshes; and that the low leaden line beyond was the river; and that the distant savage lair from which the wind was ruslung was the sea, and that the small bundle of shivers growing afraid of it all and beginning to cry, was Pip.
"Hold your noise!"cried a terrible voice, as a man started up from among the graves at the side of the church porch. "Keep still, you little devil, or I'll cut your throat!"
A fearful man, all in coarse gray, with a great iron on his leg. A man with no hat, and with broken shoes, and with an old rag tied round his head. A man who had been soaked in water, and smothered in mud, and lamed by stones, and cut by flints, and stung by nettles, and tom by briars; who limped, and sluvered, and glared, and growled; and whose teeth
chattered in his head as he seized me by the chin.
"Oh! Don't cut my throat, sir,"I pleaded in terror. "Pray don't do it, sir."
"Tell us your name! "said the man. "Quick ! "
"Pip, sir."
"Once more,"said the man, staring at me. "Give it mouth!"
"Pip. Pip, sir."
"Show us where you live,"said the man. "Pint out the place!"
I pointed to where our village lay, on the flat in-shore among the alder-trees and pollards, a mile or more from the church.
The man, after looking at me for a moment, tumed me upside down, and emptied my pockets. There was nothing in them but a piece of bread. When the church came to itself-for he was so sudden and strong that he made it go head over heels before me, and I saw the steeple under my feet -when the church came to itself, I say, I was seated on a high tombstone, rembling wlule he ate the bread ravenously.
"You young dog,"said the man, licking his lips, "what fat cheeks you ha' got."
I believe they were fat, though I was at that time undersized for my years, and not strong.
"Darn me ifl couldn't eat 'em,"said the man, with a threatening shake of his head, "and ifl han't half a nund to't!"
I eamestly expressed my hope that he wouldn't, and held tighter to the tombstone on which he had put me; partly, to keep myself upon it; partly, to keep myself from crying.
"Now then, lookee here!"said the man. "Where's your mother?"
