內容簡介
Alex Jennings will be the reader for this unabridged recording of the The Sonnets.
莎士比亞十四行詩大約創作於1590年至1598年之間,其詩作的結構技巧和語言技巧都很高,幾乎每首詩都有獨立的審美價值。莎士比亞在運用這個詩體時,極為得心應手,主要錶現為語匯豐富、用詞洗練、比喻新穎、結構巧妙、音調鏗鏘悅耳。而其最擅長的是最後兩行詩,往往構思奇詭,語齣驚人,既是全詩點睛之作,又自成一聯警語格言。
作者簡介
William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in April 1564, and his birth is traditionally celebrated on April 23. The facts of his life, known from surviving documents, are sparse. He was one of eight children born to John Shakespeare, a merchant of some standing in his community. William probably went to the King’s New School in Stratford, but he had no university education. In November 1582, at the age of eighteen, he married Anne Hathaway, eight years his senior, who was pregnant with their first child, Susanna. She was born on May 26, 1583. Twins, a boy, Hamnet ( who would die at age eleven), and a girl, Judith, were born in 1585. By 1592 Shakespeare had gone to London working as an actor and already known as a playwright. A rival dramatist, Robert Greene, referred to him as “an upstart crow, beautified with our feathers.” Shakespeare became a principal shareholder and playwright of the successful acting troupe, the Lord Chamberlain’s Men (later under James I, called the King’s Men). In 1599 the Lord Chamberlain’s Men built and occupied the Globe Theater in Southwark near the Thames River. Here many of Shakespeare’s plays were performed by the most famous actors of his time, including Richard Burbage, Will Kempe, and Robert Armin. In addition to his 37 plays, Shakespeare had a hand in others, including Sir Thomas More and The Two Noble Kinsmen, and he wrote poems, including Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece. His 154 sonnets were published, probably without his authorization, in 1609. In 1611 or 1612 he gave up his lodgings in London and devoted more and more time to retirement in Stratford, though he continued writing such plays as The Tempest and Henry VII until about 1613. He died on April 23 1616, and was buried in Holy Trinity Church, Stratford. No collected edition of his plays was published during his life-time, but in 1623 two members of his acting company, John Heminges and Henry Condell, put together the great collection now called the First Folio.
莎士比亞(W. William Shakespeare;1564~1616)英國文藝復興時期偉大的劇作傢、詩人,歐洲文藝復興時期人文主義文學的集大成者。莎士比亞的代錶作有四大悲劇:《哈姆雷特》(英:Hamlet)、《奧賽羅》(英:Othello)、《李爾王》(英:King Lear)、《麥剋白》(英:Mac Beth)。著名喜劇:《仲夏夜之夢》《威尼斯商人》《第十二夜》《皆大歡喜》(《As you like it》)。曆史劇:《亨利四世》《亨利五世》《查理二世》。正劇、悲喜劇:《羅密歐與硃麗葉》。還寫過154首十四行詩,二首長詩。本·瓊森稱他為“時代的靈魂”,馬剋思稱他和古希臘的埃斯庫羅斯為“人類最偉大的戲劇天纔”。雖然莎士比亞隻用英文寫作,但他卻是世界著名作傢。他的大部分作品都已被譯成多種文字,其劇作也在許多國傢上演。儒略曆1616年4月23日(公曆1616年5月3日)病逝,齣生日期與逝世日期恰好相同。莎士比亞和意大利著名數學傢、物理學傢、天文學傢和哲學傢、近代實驗科學的先驅者伽利略同一年齣生。被人們尊稱為“莎翁”。初中選文《威尼斯商人》.高中選文《哈姆萊特》《羅密歐與硃麗葉(節選)》。
