《白鯨記》裡頭有一群「為最崇高的悲劇而設的」人物,也有專為這些悲劇角色所設之最適當的一個敵人:一條白鯨。就梅爾維爾而言,這並不是一個容易創造的寓言,因為他同他的英雄在感情上是一致的,但是在理智上卻是不贊同他的。他寫了「一本壞書」-這是他寫完以後說的話-但是,他感覺到「好像綿羊似的潔白無暇」。捕鯨是梅爾維爾的最愛-確實是最愛,昔日他親身出海捕鯨;《白鯨記》寫成後,他也以文字捕住了一條不死的鯨。

We will be honoring Herman Melville as the #ClassicsInContext Author of the month for August! Herman Melville was born on August 1, 1819 in New York City. Melville is a renowned American novelist, poet, and short story writer, most notably for 'Moby Dick' and 'Bartleby, the Scrivener.' At the start of his life, he and his family lived in luxury, only to plunge into poverty once his father died shortly after the failure of his import business in 1832. The author later embarked on a whaling voyage in the South Seas that inspired his early novels 'Typee' and 'Omoo.'

Happy 200th Birthday to Herman Melville, born on this day in 1819 in New York, NY.
“Consider the subtleness of the sea; how its most dreaded creatures glide under water, unapparent for the most part, and treacherously hidden beneath the loveliest tints of azure. Consider also the devilish brilliance and beauty of many of its most remorseless tribes, as the dainty embellished shape of many species of sharks. Consider, once more, the universal cannibalism of the sea; all whose creatures prey upon each other, carrying on eternal war since the world began.
Consider all this; and then turn to the green, gentle, and most docile earth; consider them both, the sea and the land; and do you not find a strange analogy to something in yourself? For as this appalling ocean surrounds the verdant land, so in the soul of man there lies one insular Tahiti, full of peace and joy, but encompassed by all the horrors of the half-known life. God keep thee! Push not off from that isle, thou canst never return!”
― from MOBY DICK (1851) by Herman Melville

二手書店竹軒的感情。
去年新潮文庫的張清吉先生過世,我在新Blog上寫文紀念,一個月百來篇。由於書大部分放在永和,所以我多利用二手書店的。當時催老闆多跟我找書。今天,他送我一本張先生的簽名書。更難得的是,這是本鍾肇政先生的翻譯作品----H. G. Wells 的《文明的故事》。

Tal día como hoy, en 1478, nació en Londres Thomas More, más conocido en España como Tomás Moro. Este teólogo, político, humanista y escritor, fue un destacado detractor de la Reforma protestante. Su principal obra literaria, "Utopía", fue redactada en Amberes y publicada en 1516.
El Museo del Prado conserva el retrato de Moro realizado por Rubens entre 1625 y 1630, y que es una copia libre del que el pintor alemán Hans Holbein el Joven había realizado en 1527. La copia de pinturas de otros autores representa una de las prácticas habituales de aquella época. En su obra, el artista holandés eliminó algunos elementos considerados accesorios, como un cortinaje y una cadena. El original de Holbein se conserva en la Frick Collection de Nueva York.
"And when the devil hath seen that they have set so little by him, after certain essays, made in such times as he thought most fitting, he hath given that temptation quite over. And this he doth not only because the proud spirit cannot endure to be mocked, but also lest, with much tempting the man to the sin to which he could not in conclusion bring him, he should much increase his merit."
—from "Dialogue of Comfort Against Tribulation" (1553)
Thomas More is perhaps most familiar to us from his courageous struggle with Henry VIII, unforgettably portrayed in Robert Bolt’s classic, A Man for All Seasons. But that final struggle, which ended in his execution for treason, was only the crowning act in a life that he had devoted to God long before. In the first selection in decades made for the general reader from his collected works, this volume traces More’s journey of moral conviction in his own words and writings. Drawing on a variety of More’s late writings–the extraordinary “Tower Works,” written in prison, his poignant last letters to his daughter Margaret, and his poems, private prayers and devotional works–this collection will provide even readers lacking a background in Renaissance humanism or history with a rich introduction to a startlingly modern man of spiritual principle. Also included is the famous “Life of Sir Thomas More,” written by his son-in-law, William Roper. In the annals of spirituality certain books stand out both for their historical importance and for their continued relevance. The Vintage Spiritual Classics series offers the greatest of these works in authoritative new editions, with specially commissioned essays by noted contemporary commentators. Filled with eloquence and fresh insight, encouragement and solace, Vintage Spiritual Classics are incomparable resources for all readers who seek a more substantive understanding of mankind’s relation to the divine.

Duo is a 1934 novel by the French writer Colette. The story focuses on a married couple on vacation in southern France, who deal with the fact that the wife has been unfaithful. Roberto Rossellini's 1954 film Journey to Italy is loosely based on the novel, but uncredited due to rights issues.

「永恆的戀人」(尤金.歐涅金)是近俄羅文學之父普希金一生最重要的作品。從一八二三年起,前後花了八年歲月,普希金寫成了俄羅斯第一本寫實的韻文體小說。他以自由奔放的筆觸描述一對青年激情與命運。透過男女主角的命運,詳盡地描繪了十九世紀初期的俄國社會和眾生相,被譽為是「俄羅斯生活的百科辭典」。藉著男女主角命運的衝突,普希金提出他銳利的社會批和拘學性思索,描述了真摯的情感與道德勇氣的困境,說明了健康的真理與責任觀念勝過犬儒式的思想與西方的膚淺。字裡行間充滿錯綜複雜的抒情意象,寫實的描述中也隱含著對大自然的沈思。書中所用的四音步抑揚格詩體的十四行詩,對後世俄詩的發展更有莫大的啟導作用。杜思妥也夫斯基便讚譽本書乃是俄羅斯的民族史詩,而女主角達茜雅娜則是俄羅斯純樸與誠篤的化身。

「難道你沒有過什麼計畫嗎?」
「有過,幾年以前我定了一個計畫,一直奉行到今天。」
「這一定是一個很有趣的計畫。」伊莎貝爾直率地說。
「一個很簡單的計畫。那就是儘量平靜無事」……
……
「……我在這裡一住就是許多年,實現了我剛才說的那個安靜計畫。我不是一點也不快活。我也不是說我一無所求,但我所求的只是可憐的、有限的一點東西。我生活中的大事,除了我自己,絕對不為任何人所知道,譬如,買一件便宜的十字架古董(當然我從來不會出大錢收購),或者像有一次那樣,在一塊給一個心血來潮的儍瓜塗得亂七八糟的油畫板上,發現了柯勒喬的一幅草圖!」摘自亨利‧詹姆斯《一位女士的畫像》
一眼就看出這個熟悉的計畫。小說像一面鏡子,照見我們的模樣……

一個人應該使自己的生活成為一件藝術品。摘自亨利‧詹姆斯《一位女士的畫像》
書房的第一面牆塗了鮮黃色……柱子和樑怎麼辦?……已經踏出第一步,家裡的牆五十幾年來都是白色的。
塗一面牆才兩、三個小時而已,比寫一篇文章還快……不必想太多,腦子裏有一點「色感」就可以塗了,不滿意就改,當做寫日記一樣,只要天天做……是的,「天天做」是藝術的基本條件。作家沒有天天寫就不是作家;畫家沒有天天畫就不是畫家……
「天天做」有點像長篇小說……把一個密集一週可以完成的工程,轉變成天天做一點,二、三月才完成……這個轉變的成功在於「工程必須變成藝術」。

有時候,我真想跑到你父親的墳前去跪下,也許他給我錢的時候沒有想到,他做了一件多麼好的事,他使我可以嫁給一個貧窮的人──一個在貧窮面前保持著尊嚴的人,一個是富貴如浮雲的人。奧斯蒙德先生從來不想向上爬,從不想出人頭地──世俗的榮譽不在他心上。摘自亨利‧詹姆斯《一位女士的畫像》
我想《一位女士的畫像》是亨利‧詹姆斯最值得一讀的小說。他在自序裏這麼說:「把問題的中心放在少女的意識中,你就可以得到你所能期待的最有趣、最美好的困難了。堅持這一點──把它作為中心……」
會喜歡這部小說,表示你還不算衰老,對於少女的意識還不陌生……

“Her reputation for reading a great deal hung about her like the cloudy envelope of a goddess in an epic.”
―from THE PORTRAIT OF A LADY (1881) by
Henry JamesIsabel Archer, a beautiful, intelligent, and headstrong American girl newly endowed with wealth and embarked in Europe on a treacherous journey to self-knowledge, is delineated with a magnificence that is at once casual and tense with force and insight. The characters with whom she is entangled–the good man and the evil
one, between whom she wavers, and the mysterious witchlike woman with whom she must do battle–are each rendered with a virtuosity that suggests dazzling imaginative powers. And the scene painting–in England and Italy–provides a continuous visual pleasure while always remaining crucial to the larger drama. THE PORTRAIT OF A LADY is the most stunning achievement of Henry James’s early period–in the 1860s and ’70s when he was transforming himself from a talented young American into a resident of Europe, a citizen of the world, and one of the greatest novelists of modern times. A kind of delight at the success of this transformation informs every page of this masterpiece. READ an excerpt here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/…/the-portrait-of-a-lad…/
