鲁滨逊漂流记英文简介
Robinson Crusoe is one of the world's most popular adventure novels. Daniel Defoe based his classic tale of shipwreck and survival on an uninhabited island, which is based on a true story. The real Robinson Crusoe was a Scotsman named Alexander Selkirk Born in 1676, when Selkirk was 19 years old he was cited for indecent conct in church. Then he ran off to sea. That was in 1695. By 1703 he was the sailing master of a galley. The following year he joined a pirate expedition to the Pacific Ocean that was led by Capt. William Dampier. Selkirk's ship had Thomas Straddling as its captain.
After spending some time in the Pacific, they were preparing to return to England with their booty. Their ship had suffered considerable damage in battle and Selkirk felt they needed to repair her before setting off around the Horn. The captain disagreed. After an argument, Selkirk refused to go any farther and demanded he be set ashore on the Island of Juan Fernandez, which was about 400 miles off the coast of Chile. The captain was glad to do this.
After about two years on the island he finally saw a ship and ran down to the shore to look it. He realized almost too late that it was a Spanish ship and the Spaniards opened fire on him. They were unable to find him and eventually left. He was much more cautious after that.
《简爱》简介
This is a story about a special and unreserved woman who has been exposed to a hostile environment but continuously and fearlessly struggling for her ideal life. The story can be interpreted as a symbol of the independent spirit.
Jane Eyer was a born resister, whose parents went off when she was very young, and her aunt，the only relative she had，treated her as badly as a ragtag. Since Jane’s ecation in Lowwood Orphanage began, she didn’t get what she had been expecting simply being regarded as a common person, just the same as any other girl around. The suffers from being humiliated and devastated teach Jane to be persevering and prize dignity over anything else.As a reward of revolting the ruthless oppression, Jane got a chance to be a tutor in Thornfield Garden. There she made the acquaintance of lovely Adele and that garden’s owner, Rochester, a man with warm heart despite a cold face outside.
In this era of rapid social and technological change leading to increasing life complexity and psychological displacement, both physical and mental effects on us call for a balance. We are likely to find ourselves bogged down in the Sargasso Sea of information overload and living unconsciousness. It’s our spirit that makes the life meaningful.
《傲慢与偏见》的概括
Summery of the novel
It is universally acknowledged that the eternal theme of Jane Austen’s novels is the choice people make for marriage partners, so is in Pride and Prejudice. Mrs. Bonnet had no other wish if her five daughters could get married as soon as possible with someone wealthy. At a dancing ball, it is obvious that Mr. Bingley could not help falling in love at the first sight with Miss Jane because of her stunning beauty. Mrs. Benne was so excited that she could not hold her manner and declared publicly she would have a daughter married soon, which frightened Mr. Bingley away. Mr. Collins, a distance nephew of Mr. Bennet, came to ask a marriage to one of his cousins before Mrs. Bennet was able to get clear why Mr. Bingley left suddenly. After receiving the hint from Mrs. Bennet that Jane already had an admirer, Mr. Collins turned to Elizabeth without wasting a minute and to Miss Charlotte Lucas two days later after refused by Elizabeth. It was difficult for Mrs. Bennet to recover herself as a result of the“deadly stupid” decision made by Elizabeth until she got the news that Lydia finally married Mr. Wickham, though the marriage was built on the basis of ten thousand pounds. Mr. Darcy offered the money and did everything departing from his will just because he loved Elizabeth so much. He could not hide his feelings any more and showed his affection to Elizabeth at last, who, because of a series of misunderstandings towards him, rejected him without hesitation. This plot is the climax of the novel as the prejudice of Elizabeth to Mr. Darcy was exposed and removed since then. And the combination of the two young couples, Jane and Bingley, Elizabeth and Darcy came at last.
乱世佳人
Gone With The Wind is often considered the most beloved, enring and popular film of all time. Sidney Howard's script was derived from Margaret Mitchell's first and only published, best-selling Civil War and Reconstruction Period novel of 1,037 pages that first appeared in 1936, but was mostly written in the late 1920s. Procer David O. Selznick had acquired the film rights to Mitchell's novel in July, 1936 for $50,000 - a record amount at the time to an unknown author for her first novel, causing some to label the film "Selznick's Folly." At the time of the film's release, the fictional book had surpassed 1.5 million copies sold. More records were set when the film was first aired on television in two parts in late 1976, and controversy arose when it was restored and released theatrically in 1998.
The famous film, shot in three-strip Technicolor, is cinema's greatest, star-studded, historical epic film of the Old South ring wartime that boasts an immortal cast in a timeless, classic tale of a love-hate romance. The indomitable heroine, Scarlett O'Hara, struggles to find love ring the chaotic Civil War years and afterwards, and ultimately must seek refuge for herself and her family back at the beloved plantation Tara. There, she takes charge, defends it against Union soldiers, carpetbaggers, and starvation itself. She finally marries her worldly admirer Rhett Butler, but her apathy toward him in their marriage dooms their battling relationship, and she again returns to Tara to find consolation - indomitable.
Authenticity is enhanced by the costuming, sets, and variations on Stephen Foster songs and other excerpts from Civil War martial airs. Its opening, only a few months after WWII began in Europe, helped American audiences to identify with the war story and its theme of survival.
With three years advance publicity and Hollywood myth-making, three and one-half hours running time (with one intermission), a gala premiere in Atlanta on December 15, 1939, highest-grossing film status (eventually reaching $200 million), and Max Steiner's sweeping musical score, the exquisitely-photographed, Technicolor film was a blockbuster in its own time. A budgeted investment of over $4 million in proction costs was required - an enormous, record-breaking sum. The film (originally rough-cut at 6 hours in length) was challenging in its making, e to its controversial subject matter (including rape, drunkenness, moral dissipation and altery) and its epic qualities, with more than 50 speaking roles and 2,400 extras.
Various elements in the original novel had to be eliminated, and some characters, scenes, and events were either truncated, dropped, or modified:
Scarlett's first two children (Wade Hampton and Ella Lorena) were eliminated
In the novel, Charles Hamilton was in love with Honey Wilkes prior to falling in love with Scarlett; in the film, he was in love with India Wilkes Rhett's scenes (and confessions) about being a blockade runner were minimized or cut out
the novel's love scenes (in particular, the "Paddock Scene") were more low-key
the character of the Atlanta prostitute Belle Watling was sanitized, and Rhett's finding of solace with Belle, after Scarlett vowed not to have any more children following Bonnie's birth, was also down-played
any episodes or mention of the Ku Klux Klan were dropped
Rhett's contempt for Ashley was softened
Rhett's last words in the novel: "My dear, I don't give a damn." In the film: "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn." [Contrary to popular belief, it was not the film with the first use of the word 'damn' (the expletive had been said by two characters in Pygmalion (1938) and had also been spoken in Alice Adams (1935))]
Will Benteen (Tara's "man of the house"), Rhett's sister Rosemary Butler, and Scarlett's uncle and lawyer Henry Hamilton were eliminated
On the night of the Shantytown raid, Melanie read from Charles Dickens' David Copperfield rather than from Victor Hugo's Les Miserables
A nationwide casting search for an actress to play the Southern belle Scarlett resulted in the hiring of young British actress Vivien Leigh, although over 30 other actresses (some well-known, and some amateurs) had been tested or considered including: Katharine Hepburn, Miriam Hopkins, Susan Hayward, Loretta Young, Paulette Goddard, Margaret Sullavan, Barbara Stanwyck, Joan Crawford, Norma Shearer, Lana Turner, Joan Bennett, Mae West, Tallulah Bankhead, Jean Arthur, and Lucille Ball. Although MGM star Clark Gable was expected to play the role of the dashing war profiteer Rhett Butler, Errol Flynn, Ronald Colman, and Gary Cooper were also considered for the part. Author Margaret Mitchell told a reporter she favored Basil Rathbone for the male lead. The four principal stars were billed in this order: Clark Gable, followed by Leslie Howard and Olivia de Havilland, and then Vivien Leigh last with "...and presenting" -- that is, until she won the Oscar and it was changed to "starring
嘉莉妹妹
Living in a poor and intensely religious family,Dreiser had a very unhappy childhood.A world of jungle where "kill or to be killed" was the law can be found in Dreiser's fictions.In Sister Carrie Dreiser expressed his naturalistic pursuit by expounding the purposelessness of life and attacking the conventional moral standards.
Sister Carrie best embodies Dreiser's naturalistic belief that while men are controlled and conditioned by heredity, instinct and chance,a few extraodinary and unsophisticated human beings refuse to accept their fate wordlessly and instead strive,unsuccessfully,to find meaning and purpose for their existence.Carrie,as one of such,senses that she is merely a cipher in an uncaring world yet seeks to grasp the mysteries of life and thereby satisfies her desires for social status and material comfort.

D. 美国名著《白鲸》的读书报告 要英文版
故事是由主人公-----以实玛利走进“鲸鱼旅馆”的那一刻开始的，当晚，他被老板安排和一个名为“魁魁格”的大个子睡在一起，魁魁格是科科伏柯岛的王子，他有一手很好的叉鱼技术，魁魁格和以实玛利有着同样的志向——出海远航，做一名勇敢的水手。二人志同道合，就一起上路了，他们签约了一艘名为“裴廓德号”的捕鲸船
“裴廓德号”并不是一艘普通的船只，或许说“裴廓德号”的船长不是一个普通的船长吧。“裴廓德号”的船长名叫亚哈，他是一个瘸子，他的一条腿被一只名叫莫比迪克的白鲸给咬掉了。为此，亚哈船长与莫比结下了仇，并且发誓：誓死杀掉莫比。但是和白鲸作对自然不是什么好事，他们最后还是输了，并且输的一败涂地。船破人亡，唯一幸免的以实玛利因为一副棺材而获救，那个本来是给魁魁格准备的棺材，最后成为以实玛利的救命物，这实在是一个讽刺，一个对“裴廓德号”的讽刺，对所有船员的讽刺！
在读这个故事的过程中，有些场面实在是令人气愤，尤其是那个亚哈船长，我认为他简直是固执的可笑。难道为了一条腿，就可以牺牲自己的生命吗？尽管他的寿命不是很长了，但他完全可以放弃仇恨，安享晚年的。就是因为他的固执，让很多抱有梦想的人葬身于大海。
其实，亚哈船长从一开始就是错误的，他之所以那么恨莫比迪克，还不是因为莫比咬掉了他的一条腿，如果你说亚哈船长是因为怕这条白鲸去杀害更多的人而去不惜一切代价去捕杀它，那就错了，这只是他想要报复的一个借口，可是，回头想想，莫比为什么要咬掉他的一条腿呢？我们都知道，白鲸其实是一种很善良的动物，他不会故意侵犯你的，如若不是一开始，亚哈船长的贪婪欲望促使他去捕杀白鲸莫比，白鲸又怎会反抗呢？咬掉他一条腿已经是万幸了。
从一开始，亚哈船长就在为自己挖坟墓，从他捕杀莫比那一刻开始，他向莫比身上的投的鱼叉越多，他给自己挖的坟墓就越深，直到最后，他不仅自己跳了下去，还拉带这好多人一起跳下那个又深又“恐怖”的坟墓。那些与白鲸的斗争都是无意义。亚哈船长看上去很令人钦佩，因为他的勇敢，因为他的什么什么，但那是自私，另类的自私！从文章中不是没有看到大家在劝他放弃这个念头，“拉吉号”的船长劝过他，大副斯达巴克也劝过他，可他就是不听啊，到了最后，他似乎是完全疯掉了。
《白鲸》真的给了我很多的启示，你对待他人怎样，他人就会对待你怎样。你不去招惹别人，别人更不会冒犯你的。对待什么事物，可以不要过分的认真，当然我是指一些无意义的认真，也许就是那些你所认为的执着会害了你自己。
大作家屠格涅夫是从19世纪40年代开始登上俄国文坛的。他的小说基本上情节单纯、结构简单、人物可陈、语言朴素，字里行间透着一种纯净雅致的诗意。法国作家莫洛亚就曾用“诗意的现实主义”来评价屠格涅夫的作品。屠格涅夫不止一次地表明自己是一个现实主义作家，他把“准确而有力地再现真实”视为自己莫大的幸福。
《猎人笔记》是屠格涅夫的成名作，也是他的第一部现实主义作品。书中每一篇的篇幅都很短小，读起来感觉轻松惬意。风景描写极其优美，人物刻画也相当成功。寥寥几笔，或勾勒出自然景物的神韵，或描摹出一个人物的灵魂，让人不由得不喜欢。
屠格涅夫出身于俄罗斯奥廖尔省的一个贵族家庭，他的母亲就是一位农奴主。这使得他自幼就亲眼目睹了农奴主的凶残专横，心里产生了对农民悲惨处境的深切同情。
《猎人笔记》的中心思想便是反对农奴制。这种思想倾向不仅表现在对地主阶级的揭露和批判上，更重要的是表现在对农民的才能和精神世界的赞美上。佩诺奇金是书中刻画得最出色的地主形象。此人受过“良好”教育，颇有“文明”风度。但他表面上客气，实际上奴仆们稍有不周，便会受到严厉惩罚。其他的地主有的蛮横地抢占他人的土地，如“猎人的祖父”；有的精神空虚，变着法折磨农民和家仆，如科莫夫；还有的专门设立“办事处”，通过一批爪牙管理农民，如女地主洛斯尼亚科娃。农民们在这些乖僻的地主管治下，过着水深火热的生活。除了这些地主形象外，笔下出现的一系列富于才干的农民形象，使人们似乎看到了农奴制下的俄罗斯的希望。《霍里和卡利内奇》中的霍里和卡利内奇，一个勤劳自信，一个热情浪漫。《美丽的梅恰河畔的卡西扬》中的卡西扬纯真善良，头脑聪明，善于思考。《歌手》中的雅可夫具有非凡的艺术天赋。这些优良的品质出现在农民身上，既是一次大胆的尝试，也体现了屠格涅夫追求“真实”的创作态度。
《猎人笔记》中的风景描写也是极其出色的。屠格涅夫极擅长于描写自然风景。日月星辰、天空白云、晨光暮霭、雨露风霜等等自然现象以及大自然中的湖光山色、树林原野、香花野草、禽兽虫鱼，在他的笔下无不显得诗趣盎然，情味无穷。风景描写在书中具有多方面的作用：有时是标示故事发生时环境气氛和时间地点，有时烘托或反衬人物的内心世界，有时对情节的发展或结局起着象征作用。情与景的交融，让景物也具有了生命力，成了不可或缺的一部分。

《The Old Man and the Sea》（老人与海），《Le Comte de Monte-Cristo》（基督山伯爵），《The adventures of Robinson Crusoe》（鲁冰逊漂流记），《Uncle Tom's Cabin》（汤姆叔叔的小屋），《The Catcher in the Rye》（麦田里的守望者）。
1、《The Old Man and the Sea》（老人与海）
《老人与海》是美国作家海明威于1951年在古巴写的一篇中篇小说，于1952年出版。
该作围绕一位老年古巴渔夫，与一条巨大的马林鱼在离岸很远的湾流中搏斗而展开故事的讲述。尽管海明威笔下的老人是悲剧性的。
但他身上却有着尼采“超人”的品质，泰然自若地接受失败，沉着勇敢地面对死亡，这些“硬汉子”体现了海明威的人生哲学和道德理想，即人类不向命运低头，永不服输的斗士精神和积极向上的乐观人生态度。
它奠定了海明威在世界文学中的突出地位，这篇小说相继获得了1953年美国普利策奖和1954年诺贝尔文学奖。
2、《Le Comte de Monte-Cristo》（基督山伯爵）
《基督山伯爵》是法国作家大仲马创作的长篇小说，发表于1844—1846年。
故事讲述19世纪法国皇帝拿破仑“百日王朝”时期，法老号大副爱德蒙·邓蒂斯受船长委托，为拿破仑党人送了一封信，遭到两个卑鄙小人和法官的陷害，被打入黑牢。
狱友法利亚神甫向他传授各种知识，并在临终前把埋于基督山岛上的一批宝藏的秘密告诉了他。
邓蒂斯越狱后找到了宝藏，成为巨富，从此化名基督山伯爵（水手辛巴德、布索尼神父、威尔莫勋爵），经过精心策划，报答了恩人，惩罚了仇人。
该小说以基督山扬善惩恶、报恩复仇为故事发展的中心线索，主要情节跌宕起伏，迂回曲折，从中又演化出若干次要情节，小插曲紧凑精彩，却不喧宾夺主，情节离奇却不违反生活真实。
全书出色地运用了“悬念”、“突发”、“发现”、“戏剧”等手法，在叙述上有较大的叙述密度和复杂的人物关系。这一切使这部小说充满了叙述的张力，洋溢着叙述本身所产生的美。
因此，《基督山伯爵》被公认为通俗小说的典范。这部小说出版后，很快就赢得了广大读者的青睐，被翻译成几十种文字出版，在法国和美国多次被拍成电影。
3、《The adventures of Robinson Crusoe》（鲁冰逊漂流记）
《鲁滨逊漂流记》是英国作家丹尼尔·笛福的一部长篇小说。该书首次出版于1719年4月25日。
该作主要讲述了主人公鲁滨逊·克鲁索（Robinson Crusoe）出生于一个中产阶级家庭，一生志在遨游四海。
一次在去非洲航海的途中遇到风暴，只身漂流到一个无人的荒岛上，开始了段与世隔绝的生活。他凭着强韧的意志与不懈的努力，在荒岛上顽强地生存下来，经过28年2个月零19天后得以返回故乡。
这部小说是笛福受当时一个真实故事的启发而创作的。1704年9月，一名叫亚历山大·塞尔柯克的苏格兰水手与船长发生争吵，被船长遗弃在大西洋中，在荒岛上生活4年4个月之后，被伍兹·罗杰斯船长所救。
笛福便以塞尔柯克的传奇故事为蓝本，把自己多年来的海上经历和体验倾注在人物身上，并充分运用自己丰富的想象力进行文学加工，使“鲁宾逊”不仅成为当时中小资产阶级心目中的英雄人物。
而且成为西方文学中第一个理想化的新兴资产者。该小说发表多年后，被译成多种文字广为流传于世界各地，并被多次改编为电影和电视剧。
4、《Uncle Tom's Cabin》（汤姆叔叔的小屋）
《汤姆叔叔的小屋：卑贱者的生活》（英语：Uncle Tom's Cabin; or, Life Among the Lowly），又译作《黑奴吁天录》、《汤姆大伯的小屋》。
是美国作家哈里特·比彻·斯托（斯托夫人）于1852年发表的一部反奴隶制长篇小说。这部小说中关于非裔美国人与美国奴隶制度的观点曾产生过意义深远的影响，并在某种程度上激化了导致美国内战的地区局部冲突。
《汤姆叔叔的小屋》这部小说是19世纪最畅销的小说（以及第二畅销的书，仅次于最畅销的书《圣经》），并被认为是刺激1850年代废奴主义兴起的一大原因。
在它发表的头一年里，在美国本土便销售出了三十万册。《汤姆叔叔的小屋》对美国社会的影响是如此巨大，以致在南北战争爆发的初期，当林肯接见斯托夫人时，曾说到：“你就是那位引发了一场大战的小妇人。” 后来，这句话为众多作家竞相引用。
《汤姆叔叔的小屋》以及受其启发而写作出的各种剧本，还促进了大量黑人刻板印象的产生，这些形象在当今都为人们所熟知。
譬如慈爱善良的黑人保姆、黑小孩的原型、以及顺从、坚忍并忠心于白人主人的汤姆叔叔。最近几十年来，《汤姆叔叔的小屋》中的这些消极成分，已在一定程度上弱化了这本书作为“重要的反奴隶制工具”的历史作用。
5、《The Catcher in the Rye》（麦田里的守望者）
《麦田里的守望者》是美国作家杰罗姆·大卫·塞林格创作的唯一一部长篇小说，首次出版于1951年。塞林格将故事的起止局限于16岁的中学生霍尔顿·考尔菲德从离开学校到纽约游荡的三天时间内，并借鉴了意识流天马行空的写作方法，充分探索了一个十几岁少年的内心世界。
愤怒与焦虑是此书的两大主题，主人公的经历和思想在青少年中引起强烈共鸣，受到读者，特别是广大中学生的热烈欢迎。
G. 英语:关于最喜欢一本书(最好是名著)的演讲稿
"Celebrity biography" by the French famous writer Romain Roland? "Beethoven biography", "biography of Michelangelo" and "Tolstoy biography" composition, they are written in the early twentieth Century, no matter be in at that time is has wide influence on later ages. In this three part biography, Romain? Roland not rigidly adhere to the hero's life trivial to do textual research in general, no trace of their creative process, but tightly hold the common three with artists, to depict their history as the pursuit of truth good beauty and long-term enre misery. Romain Rolland called them? \ "hero", to touch one deeply in the heart of the ink, wrote the great feelings they struggle with the fate of the sublime courage and shoulder the burden all human suffering, can be said to be composed another que \ "heroic Symphony \ for us". In early twentieth Century thirty or forty's "celebrity biography", by translation into Chinese famous translators of Mr. Fu Lei, his first-class, first-class author plus a first-class translators, makes the works soon become a classic, today is still loved by readers. The first half of the twentieth Century is the history of mankind, also be in deep distress stirring period, Romain? Roland creation "celebrity biography", the translation of Mr. Fu Lei "celebrity biography", all has the feeling, is to learn from the survival of the strength and courage to fight from the great career. Mr. Fu Lei said, \ "cover the entire sky \" in the haze, he obtained from the "celebrity biography" the enlightenment is: \ "only the real suffering, to dispel the only romantic fantasy suffering; but to overcome the suffering of the heroic tragedy, can help us to bear the cruel fate; but hold 'I do not go into hell, who the hell' spirit, to revive a flagging and selfish people...... "So, for today's readers," celebrity biography "can give us? In a material life and spiritual life of extremely rich relatively weak era, in a people avoid high, bid farewell to the noble and self Gan mediocrity society, "celebrity biography" give us perhaps is more awkward, because these giant's life is like a mirror, make our base and small lucidity. We would rather go to praise their work and don't want to feel the greatness of their personality. In "Michelangelo" at the end, Romain? Roland said, great soul such as mountains, \ "I do not say that ordinary human beings can survive in the peak. But they should go prostrate annual. There, they can change the lungs breathing, and blood vessel. There, they will feel more approaching the eternal. Later, they returned to the original life wide, filled with daily fighting courage ". In our times, this is really valuable advice. "Celebrity biography" very well corroborated a Chinese old saying: ancient and modern into big business, not only possess extraordinary talents, but also have a persistent. Beethoven \ "to find shelter \" in the sad bear, Michelangelo \ "the more the more make me suffer like \", Tolstoy \ "I cry, my pain, my only desire truth", all without exception shows great life is a never-ending battle. Our era of ever-changing, full of opportunities, we want success, but we don't want to fight. We want to be famous overnight. Impetuous and utilitarian may make us obtain the short-lived success, but never let us among the humans immortal list. Therefore, read "celebrity biography", we may wake up to some.
《名人传》由法国著名作家罗曼?罗兰的《贝多芬传》、《米开朗琪罗传》和《托尔斯泰传》组成，它们均创作于二十世纪初期，无论在当时是在后世都产生了广泛的影响。在这三部传记中，罗曼?罗兰没有拘泥于对传主的生平做琐屑的考述，也没有一般性地追溯他们的创作历程，而是紧紧把握住这三位拥有各自领域的艺术家的共同之处，着力刻画了他们为追求真善美而长期忍受苦难的心路历程。罗曼?罗兰称他们为\“英雄\”，以感人肺腑的笔墨，写出了他们与命运抗争的崇高勇气和担荷全人类苦难的伟大情怀，可以说是为我们谱写了另一阕\“英雄交响曲\”。
早在二十世纪三四十年代，《名人传》就由我国著名翻译家傅雷先生译成中文，一流的传主、一流的作者加上一流的译者，使这部作品很快即成为经典名著，时至今日仍深受广大读者的喜爱。二十世纪的前半期是人类历史上风云激荡也苦难深重的时期，罗曼?罗兰创作《名人传》，傅雷先生翻译《名人传》，都是有感而为，是要从这些伟人的生涯中汲取生存的力量和战斗的勇气。傅雷先生说，\“在阴霾遮蔽了整个天空的时候\”，他从《名人传》中得到的启示是：\“惟有真实的苦难，才能驱除浪漫底克的幻想的苦难；惟有克服苦难的壮烈的悲剧，才能帮助我们担受残酷的命运；惟有抱着‘我不入地狱谁入地狱’的精神，才能挽救一个萎靡而自私的民族……\”
那么，对于今天的读者来说，《名人传》又能给予我们什么呢？在一个物质生活极度丰富而精神生活相对贫弱的时代，在一个人们躲避崇高、告别崇高而自甘平庸的社会里，《名人传》给予我们的也许更多是尴尬，因为这些巨人的生涯就像一面明镜，使我们的卑劣与渺小纤毫毕现。我们宁愿去赞美他们的作品而不愿去感受他们人格的伟大。在《米开朗琪罗传》的结尾，罗曼?罗兰说，伟大的心魂有如崇山峻岭，\“我不说普通的人类都能在高峰上生存。但一年一度他们应上去顶礼。在那里，他们可以变换一下肺中的呼吸，与脉管中的血流。在那里，他们将感到更迫近永恒。以后，他们再回到人生的广原，心中充满了日常战斗的勇气\”。对于我们的时代，这实在是金石之言。
《名人传》非常好地印证了一句中国人的古训：古今之成大事业者，非惟有超世之才，亦必有坚韧不拔之志。贝多芬的\“在伤心隐忍中找栖身\”，米开朗琪罗的\“愈受苦愈使我喜欢\”，托尔斯泰的\“我哭泣，我痛苦，我只是欲求真理\”，无不表明伟大的人生就是一场无休无止的战斗。我们的时代千变万化，充满机遇，我们渴望成功，但我们却不想奋斗。我们要的是一夜成名。浮躁和急功近利或许会使我们取得昙花一现的成就，但绝不能让我们跻身人类中的不朽者之列。因此，读读《名人传》也许会让我们清醒一些。
