作者简介

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.

用户评价

坦白说，我一开始对这本书抱着将信将疑的态度，因为题材听起来有些晦涩，担心会陷入那种故作高深的泥潭。然而，一旦翻开，那种强烈的代入感立刻将我牢牢锁住。作者似乎非常擅长描绘“环境对人的异化”，书中的世界观构建得极其宏大且具有说服力，每一个细节，无论多么微小，都服务于整体的氛围烘托。我特别佩服作者在处理群像戏时的功力，上百个角色，竟然没有一个让人感到多余或面目模糊，每个人都有自己的动机、自己的阴影，他们的命运交织在一起，形成了一张巨大而精密的命运之网。阅读过程中，我感觉自己不是在看故事，而是在亲身参与一场宏大的历史进程，那种沉浸感，是我在其他作品中极少体验到的。当然，这本书对读者的专注力要求很高，它不会轻易地为你铺平道路，你需要主动去连接那些看似分散的线索，但正是这种需要动脑筋的乐趣，让最终的豁然开朗显得尤为珍贵。

这本书，简直是一场思想的狂欢，读完之后，我的世界观都有点被颠覆了。作者似乎对人性的幽微之处有着近乎残忍的洞察力，笔下的人物都不是扁平的符号，他们活生生地在你眼前挣扎、爱恋、背叛，每一个选择都带着沉重的回响。我尤其欣赏作者那种不加修饰的叙事风格，它没有刻意去迎合读者的口味，反而更像是一面冰冷但无比清晰的镜子，映照出我们内心深处那些不愿承认的欲望和恐惧。书中对社会结构的批判也极其尖锐，它没有提供廉价的解决方案，而是将问题抛回到读者面前，迫使你去思考，去质疑那些约定俗成的秩序。整个阅读过程，我常常需要停下来，不是因为情节不够吸引人，而是因为那些文字带来的冲击力太强，需要时间消化。那种感觉就像是走进了一个错综复杂的迷宫，每一步都可能通往新的顿悟，也可能陷入更深的迷惘，但正是这种不确定性，让阅读体验充满了探索的乐趣。我敢说，这本书在很大程度上提升了我对复杂叙事的理解能力，它不只是一个故事，更像是一套精密的哲学模型，值得反复揣摩。

这本作品的叙事结构简直是文学上的一个奇迹。它采用了非线性的叙事方式，时间线索像被打碎的玻璃一样散落在各个章节，你需要像拼图一样，在阅读的过程中重新组合它们，以还原出完整的事件真相。这种阅读体验是极具挑战性的，因为它要求读者全程保持高度的警觉性，稍不留神就会迷失在过去和现在的穿梭之中。但正因为这种结构上的复杂性，当最终所有碎片完美契合时，那种顿悟和满足感是无与伦比的。它不再是单向度的信息传递，而是一场与作者精心设计的智力博弈。而且，作者在运用不同叙述者声音上，也展现了大师级的技巧，每一个声音都有其独特的腔调和立场，让你时刻质疑你所接收到的“事实”是否可靠。这本书绝对不适合那些寻求轻松阅读体验的人，它需要你投入时间、精力和智慧，但对于那些渴望挑战自身阅读极限、享受智力挑战的读者来说，这本书的价值无可估量，它真正重新定义了“阅读”的含义。

天哪，这本书的语言运用简直达到了出神入化的地步，简直是文字的盛宴！我很少读到能将如此华丽的辞藻与如此朴素的情感结合得如此天衣无缝的作品。作者对于节奏的掌控，更是炉火纯青，时而如行云流水般舒缓，让人沉浸在宁静的氛围中；时而又如同急促的鼓点，将悬念推向高潮，让你手心冒汗，根本舍不得眨眼。我发现自己经常会不自觉地重读某些段落，不是为了弄清情节，而是单纯为了欣赏那些句子本身的美感，仿佛每一词都被精心打磨过，嵌合得恰到好处，散发出独特的光泽。这本书的魅力就在于，它既能满足你对故事性的渴求，又能提供一种纯粹的文学享受。它不像一些畅销书那样追求快速的感官刺激，而是更注重长远的滋养，读完之后，那种文字留下的余韵，久久地无法散去，像一首在你脑海中反复播放的乐曲。对于那些热爱文字、追求阅读深度的读者来说，这绝对是一次不容错过的深度体验。

这本书对我个人生活观的冲击，是潜移默化且持久的。它没有直接教导我要如何生活，但它通过一系列极端且真实的情境，迫使我重新审视自己对于“道德”和“成功”的定义。书中对于权力结构内部运作的描写，简直像是一本教科书，揭示了光鲜外表下那些肮脏的交易和脆弱的平衡。我特别欣赏作者对“灰色地带”的描绘，它拒绝了二元对立的简单逻辑，展示了英雄的局限性与反派的复杂性。读完之后，我发现自己看新闻、看社会事件的角度都变得更加多维和审慎了。它教会了我，世界不是非黑即白的，很多时候，最糟糕的选择往往来自于一群自认为“好人”的集体决策。这本书的后劲很足，它不让你在合上书本时感到轻松愉快，而是让你带着一丝沉重的思考，继续在现实世界中寻找那些隐藏的结构和隐喻。对于追求思想深度的读者，它提供的养分远超一般的娱乐消遣。
