威廉·福克纳(Willian Faulkner l897~1962),美国小说家。出生于没落地主家庭,第一次世界大战时在加拿大空军中服役,战后曾在大学肄业一年,1925年后专门从事创作。他被西方文学界视作“现代的经典作家”。共写了19部长篇小说和70多篇短篇小说。其中绝大多数故事发生在虚构的约克纳帕塔法县,被称为“约克纳帕塔法世系”。这部世系主要写该县及杰弗逊镇不同社会阶层的若干家庭几代人的故事。时间从独立战争前到第二次世界大战以后,出场人物有600多人,其中主要人物在他的不同作品中交替出现,实为一部多卷体的美国南方社会变迁的历史。其最著名的作品有描写杰弗逊镇望族康普生家庭的没落及成员的精神状态和生活遭遇的《喧哗与骚动》(又译《声音与疯狂》1929);写安斯·本德仑偕儿子运送妻子灵柩回杰弗逊安葬途中经历种种磨难的《我弥留之际》(1930);写孤儿裘·克里斯默斯在宗教和种族偏见的播弄、虐待下悲惨死去的《八月之光》(1932);写一个有罪孽的庄园主塞德潘及其子女和庄园的毁灭性结局的《押沙龙,押沙龙!》(1936);写新兴资产阶级弗莱姆·斯诺普斯的冷酷无情及其必然结局的《斯诺普斯三部曲》(《村子》1940,《小镇》1957,《大宅》1959)等。
福克纳1949年获诺贝尔文学奖。

评分怜悯与愤怒 —福克纳小说中的几个词 【钟表】 1910年6月2日是昆丁·康普生自杀的日子。这一天的早晨7点到8点之间,昆丁正式登场了。他从一个白痴的呓语里走了出来,像一个哲学家一样开口说话了。他在说时间,说他爷爷留下的那块表,当初他的父亲给他这块表的时候说:“这只...
评分近年来很少听到文学界像谈起一门阔亲戚那样大谈福克纳了,当“后现代”像开了闸的洪水一样疯狂涌来时,这位一生大部分时光都在美国南方乡下度过的作家就显得有些落伍和寒碜了,虽然曾几何时,他也是现代主义的顶尖人物,他对意识流手法的发展甚至超过了那位被肺病折磨了一...
评分It is obvious that William Faulkner has a gloomy recollection of the past world, but he had no ideas about how to deal with all of these problems. Then we find chaos in this novel. Benjy, as the first major character we'd met, is an idiot. I guess, maybe on...
