10. Vanity Fair (William Makepeace Thackeray, 1848)威廉·梅克皮斯·萨克雷《名利场》,1848年出书
This novel features probably the greatest anti-heroine in English literature, Becky Sharp, and a plot that revolves around class, social climbing and a financial crisis that will seem eerily familiar to modern readers.Vanity Fair has it all. It both speaks of its time, and speaks of all times.这部演义的主角大致即是英国体裁史上最著名的非正家数女主角——贝奇·夏普,演义的情节围绕阶层、社会、置身荣华社会以及当代读者听来又纯属又局促的金融危境。《名利场》这些身分完全具备, 讲明阿谁年代,也讲明着每一个年代。
9. Frankenstein (Mary Shelley, 1818)玛莉·雪莱《科学怪东说念主》,1818年出书
This pioneering work of science fiction and Gothic horror developed an indelible 'monster' of a theme that has endured for centuries: of the scientist as a "modern Prometheus".这部时尚作品集科幻和哥特式恐怖于孤独孤身一人,营造了一个难以隐藏的“恶魔”主题,即科学家中的“当代普罗米修斯”,几世纪以来齐人好猎。
8. David Copperfield (Charles Dickens, 1850)查尔斯·狄更斯《大卫·科波菲尔》,1850年出书
David Copperfield is populated by some of the most vivid characters ever created. They are as much a part of readers' world, and their way of thinking about the world, as people they have actually met.《大卫·科波菲尔》东说念主物形象稠密,本性鲜嫩的变装云集。这些东说念主物变装仿佛是读者处所的确寰宇的一部分,和读者切身碰见的东说念主相同,有着相似的寰宇不雅。
7. Wuthering Heights (Emily Brontë, 1847)艾米莉·勃朗特《呼啸山庄》,1847年出书
Wuthering Heights is "powered by more psychological energy than any book ever written". Readers admire Wuthering Heights because of "its layered narrative structure, because it is a work of incredible imagination, and because it is far more than a love story. The story shows 'the eternal rocks beneath' our fleeting desires.《呼啸山庄》“蕴含巨大的心情能量,莫得其它竹素能够与之匹敌。”读者顾惜《呼啸山庄》是因为其“重重叠叠的叙述结构”和丰富惊东说念主的设想力,更因为《呼啸山庄》荒芜了爱情故事本人,展现了咱们俄顷即逝的守望之下“不朽的触动”。
6. Bleak House (Charles Dickens, 1853)查尔斯·狄更斯《凄迷之屋》,1853年出书
Bleak House is among Dickens novels, uniquely original in its alternation of first-person past-tense chapters with a concurrent third-person account in present tense.《凄迷之屋》是狄更斯的演义之一,以第一东说念主称夙昔时所写的章节与第三东说念主称当前时的叙述并行,两者间的切换蜕变独有。
5. Jane Eyre (Charlotte Brontë, 1847)夏洛蒂·勃朗特《简·爱》,1847年出书
Brontë's revolutionary 1847 Gothic romance about a young woman seeking a richer and more passionate life on her own still resonates with modern readers. Brontë's novel features the orphan Jane Eyre's search for an identity, her powerful attraction to her master, Mr Rochester, and an intimate description of her complex moral choices and sometimes raw emotional states.勃朗特这部哥特式爱情传闻出书于1847年,实质修订,讲明了一个年青女性追寻更为充实心情的生存,于今仍能引起当代读者的共识。 勃朗特演义的主东说念主翁简·爱是个孤儿,追寻着自我的身份,主东说念主罗切斯特先生深深招引着她,其情至真令简`爱无法不平;演义理会描摹了简·爱复杂的说念德抉择过甚无意显得有些原始的情感气象。
4. Great Expectations (Charles Dickens, 1861)查尔斯·狄更斯《宏大前景》,1861年出书
Great Expectations might be the quintessential British novel. To re-read Dickens' classic as an adult is to discover its wit and brio, its influence, and its truth. It has all the elements of classic Dickens – endearing, flawed characters; a plot that skewers the politics of the time; subplots that skewer morality and culture; a love story; and a wonderful storyline.《宏大前景》大致是最正大的英国演义。成年读者重温狄更斯经典,去发现其聪惠与精彩、影响与真谛。《宏大前景》有狄更斯经典的统统元素,讨东说念主欢畅却不甚完满的变装、主要故事情节能牵住局势、副线情节串起说念德与文化,是部情节精彩的爱情故事作品。
3. Mrs Dalloway (Virginia Woolf, 1925)弗吉尼亚·伍尔芙《达洛卫夫东说念主》,1925年出书
If the most precious gift of the novel as a medium is the power it has to break into the prison of human consciousness, to expose the gossamer weave of thought and feeling and memory that makes up our innermost lives, then Woolf's fourth novel stands alone at the pinnacle.Virginia Woolf made modernism live and breathe.如若说这部演义手脚序言最天才之处在于其取销东说念主类领略的囹圄、显现东说念主们细若蛛丝的念念绪、显现组成咱们内心生存的挂念,那么伍尔芙的第四部演义本人即是鼎峰之作。弗吉尼亚让当代目的忻悦更生、重现生机。
2. To the Lighthouse (Virginia Woolf, 1927)弗吉尼亚·伍尔芙《到灯塔去》,1927年出书
在线之家Subtle, beautiful, staggeringly intelligent and flat-out original. A masterpiece of modernism, its stream-of-consciousness, richness of language and perceptions has continued to reveal itself.素雅玄机、聪惠惊东说念主,是原原委委的原创之作。当代派的大众之作,欺诈领略流写法,其讲话丰富、不雅察蛮横,不言自明。
1. Middlemarch (George Eliot, 1874)乔治·艾略特《米德尔马契》,1874年出书
