去年年末买了两本英文回忆录,这是其中一本,另一本是郑念的life and death in shanghai,很凑巧的发现这两个人都是1915年1月出生,2009年11月逝世,都出生世家而在上世纪的30年代去英国接受教育,解放后都受到了冲击,文革中都坐过牢,郑念在文革中失去的唯一的女儿,杨先生的...
评分这一版的《杨宪益自传》是在杨先生英文自传《white tiger》中译本《漏船载酒忆当年》的基础上订正并再版发行的,附录部分收入了部分中文短文,内容多是追忆友人以及谈文学翻译。因原作是英文,读来颇有西式文体的风格,简短直白,坦率幽默的天性在其中处处可见。 去...
评分在回忆结束之后,杨宪益将话题拉到了这一刻,他说:“有时我想写些什么,研究些问题,但我再也坐不下来干这些事了。”说不上是厌倦还是年龄问题,据说在戴乃迭过世后,杨宪益就不再做翻译或其他工作,整日里只是坐在沙发上,他拒绝电视,一方面可能是因为视力原因,一方面...
评分看过之后才明白在中国太多时候是时机决定了眼界,政治决定了人生。年轻的富家子弟所谓的知识分子心怀祖国劳苦大众,受够了国民党的腐败,为了更好的未来他们选择了共产主义,然而社会主义或者共产主义快要到来的时候他们发现时代变化了;他们的热血理想或许曾经勾勒着时代...

It all began with a dream. A young woman saw a white tiger leap into her lap. It was both auspicious and unlucky—her son, the fortune-teller said, would grow up with no brothers, and his father's health would be endangered by his birth. That son, however, would have a distinguished career, after going through many misfortunes and dangers.
The dream was prophetic. The child was his mother's only male child and his father died of illness when the boy was only five. He grew up during the wartime and period of political turmoil in China, passing through many troubles, and he has had a very distinguished career. He is Yang Xianyi, renowned scholar, translator and interpreter of Chinese and Western literature.
This delightful memoir of Yang Xianyi gives a candid and entertaining account of himself as a lighthearted and mischievous young man who immersed himself in the learning of European culture, ancient and modern, when he studied at Oxford in the 1930s. But it is also the illuminating self-portrait of a deeply patriotic intellectual living in a China under the throes of change, giving rare insight into the survival of a courageous, witty and principled individual during the harsh century of Chinese liberation.
