Stefan Zweig was one of the world's most famous writers during the 1920s and 1930s, especially in the U.S., South America and Europe. He produced novels, plays, biographies and journalist pieces. Among his most famous works are Beware of Pity, Letter from and Unknown Woman and Mary, Queen of Scotland and the Isles. He and his second wife committed suicide in 1942.
Zweig studied in Austria, France, and Germany before settling in Salzburg in 1913. In 1934, driven into exile by the Nazis, he emigrated to England and then, in 1940, to Brazil by way of New York. Finding only growing loneliness and disillusionment in their new surroundings, he and his second wife committed suicide.
Zweig's interest in psychology and the teachings of Sigmund Freud led to his most characteristic work, the subtle portrayal of character. Zweig's essays include studies of Honoré de Balzac, Charles Dickens, and Fyodor Dostoyevsky (Drei Meister, 1920; Three Masters) and of Friedrich Hlderlin, Heinrich von Kleist, and Friedrich Nietzsche (Der Kampf mit dem Dmon, 1925; Master Builders). He achieved popularity with Sternstunden der Menschheit (1928; The Tide of Fortune), five historical portraits in miniature. He wrote full-scale, intuitive rather than objective, biographies of the French statesman Joseph Fouché (1929), Mary Stuart (1935), and others. His stories include those in Verwirrung der Gefhle (1925; Conflicts). He also wrote a psychological novel, Ungeduld des Herzens (1938; Beware of Pity), and translated works of Charles Baudelaire, Paul Verlaine, and mile Verhaeren.

The World of Yesterday 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书
在书中提到,人的内心会有这样一种矛盾,在生活十分坎坷的时候,他渴望安宁;可是当生活十分安宁的时候,他又渴望紧张。所以在作者五十岁的生日那天,内心深处只有一种居心不良的愿望,但愿能发生一些什么能把他从安宁的生活中拽出去。十年以后他在巴西自杀。这本书不太像一般...
评分首先要感谢三个人:茨威格先生,舒昌善先生,还有蔡老师。他们让我在这个用优美流畅的句子构筑起来的精神花园漫步到不知时间流逝。我在文字里走进一个遥远的时代,鸟瞰辽阔的世界,领略当时的社会风貌,结识那个时代的文化名人……温暖的人性、高雅的情趣、睿智的见解在笔端...
评分茨威格生前和中国几乎没有什么关系,除了他的书在中国有所出版,和其他的作家相比影响也不太大。而且,他也没有关注过中国,因为在他的眼中欧洲就是他的全部世界,所以他才把书名定位《昨日的世界》。我不得不说的是,虽然作者谦虚的说此书是“一个欧洲人的回忆”,但是在此书...
评分很久没有读到这样的文字了,能从书在手上的那一刻开始,不想放下。 茨威格的书,好像就是被冠以质量保证的名优产品,而母校老师舒昌善的翻译,尽全力的恢复了茨威格老先生的优美文字和美妙韵律,那一段段的长句子和一个个精彩传神的故事就在书里面流淌着,很少给你想先打个盹...
评分“可是不管怎么说,每一个影子毕竟还是光明的产儿,而且只有经历过光明和黑暗、和平和战争、兴盛和衰败的人,他才算真正的生活过”,当茨威格在这本影响过一代人的《昨日的世界》以一个看似乐观而奋进的句子结尾时,我却无法产生一丝振奋之感,我想茨威格写下这样的句子时...

By the author who inspired Wes Anderson’s 2014 film, The Grand Budapest Hotel
Written as both a recollection of the past and a warning for future generations, The World of Yesterday recalls the golden age of literary Vienna—its seeming permanence, its promise, and its devastating fall.
Surrounded by the leading literary lights of the epoch, Stefan Zweig draws a vivid and intimate account of his life and travels through Vienna, Paris, Berlin, and London, touching on the very heart of European culture. His passionate, evocative prose paints a stunning portrait of an era that danced brilliantly on the edge of extinction.
This new translation by award-winning Anthea Bell captures the spirit of Zweig’s writing in arguably his most revealing work.
从这本开始爱上了Zweig。文章写得漂亮的人很多,但是真正内心高贵的人却很少。
评分The world is not a friendly place for the cosmopolitan. Maybe never.
评分The world is not a friendly place for the cosmopolitan. Maybe never.
评分读了无限唏嘘,只能说满目疮痍的世界,颠沛流离的生活成就了更好的 你的作品。
评分我隐约可以体会为什么有些人会指责茨威格虚伪。他的见解和评价能做到如此公正全面,多半是下笔前好生踌躇了一番。这样一来,最原始,尖锐的想法也就被模糊掉,变的不温不火了。另外,昨日的世界简直就是名人收集花名册!带dali去拜访佛洛依德这种事情都出现了,真熊,真熊啊
