美麗童話

前言

在遠(yuǎn)古時(shí)代，詩(shī)人們和編故事的人們構(gòu)想了許多關(guān)于公主與王子、魔鬼與天使、國(guó)王與平民、動(dòng)物與智者、美女與勇士等傳說，這些故事由一代代人口述著流傳下來(lái)。后來(lái)人們把它們變成了文字，這些奇妙的故事就被記錄下來(lái)。這些被記錄下來(lái)的故事一般是寓言故事、神話傳說、歷史故事和名人傳奇等，它們傳誦的主要對(duì)象是青少年，是每個(gè)民族文化記憶中的核心內(nèi)容，它們可以統(tǒng)稱為童話。它們以口承和文字形式代代相傳綿綿不絕，既延續(xù)著一個(gè)個(gè)歷久彌新的故事與文本的記載，同時(shí)也傳遞著一種精神的力量。世界上幾乎每一個(gè)國(guó)家都重視對(duì)本國(guó)青少年的童話教育，特別是源于世界各地的著名童話故事教育，如中國(guó)的“花木蘭”、丹麥的“丑小鴨”、德國(guó)的“小紅帽”、古希臘的“農(nóng)夫和蛇”等?；谝陨显颍覀冋J(rèn)為編寫源于世界各地的美麗童話故事讀本，對(duì)加強(qiáng)當(dāng)代中國(guó)青少年學(xué)生素質(zhì)教育和人文修養(yǎng)是非常有幫助的。作為世界童話寶庫(kù)的一部分，本書內(nèi)容取材于古希臘寓言大師伊索、法國(guó)寓言與童話大師拉封丹、俄羅斯寓言大師克雷洛夫和愛爾蘭童話大師王爾德等的西方經(jīng)典童話與寓言故事。這些美麗的故事之所以被選入本書，不僅因?yàn)樗鼈兙哂袃?nèi)在美，具有鮮明的西方特點(diǎn)，而且是因?yàn)樗鼈優(yōu)槭澜鐐髡f與神話文學(xué)寶庫(kù)增添了無(wú)限的微型機(jī)。閱讀本書，讓我們不得不驚嘆古人的美妙想象和活動(dòng)。這些故事不僅在于內(nèi)容的經(jīng)典性和表達(dá)的完美性，而且要蘊(yùn)含文化的理念和價(jià)值，讓人們得到人文的熏陶，青少年讀者可以從中得到有益的啟示。國(guó)內(nèi)也曾有此類書出版，但主要集中在兩個(gè)方面：一種是中文翻譯版，另一種是中英文對(duì)照版。而其中的中英文對(duì)照讀本比較受青少年讀者的歡迎，這主要是得益于中國(guó)人熱衷于學(xué)習(xí)英文的大環(huán)境。從英文學(xué)習(xí)的角度來(lái)看，直接使用純英文的學(xué)習(xí)資料更有利于英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)?？紤]到對(duì)英文內(nèi)容背景的了解有助于英文閱讀，使用中文導(dǎo)讀應(yīng)該是一種比較好的方式，也可以說是該類型書的第三種版本形式。采用中文導(dǎo)讀而非中英文對(duì)照的方式進(jìn)行編排，這樣有利于國(guó)內(nèi)讀者擺脫對(duì)英文閱讀依賴中文注釋的習(xí)慣。在中文導(dǎo)讀中，我們盡力使其貼近原作的精髓，也盡可能保留原作風(fēng)格。我們希望能夠編出為當(dāng)代中國(guó)青少年讀者所喜愛的經(jīng)典讀本。讀者在閱讀英文故事之前，可以先閱讀中文導(dǎo)讀內(nèi)容，這樣有利于了解故事背景，從而加快閱讀速度。本書主要內(nèi)容由王勛、紀(jì)飛編譯。參加本書故事素材搜集整理及編譯工作的還有鄭佳、劉乃亞、趙雪、左新杲、黃福成、馮潔、徐鑫、馬啟龍、王業(yè)偉、王旭敏、陳楠、王多多、邵舒麗、周麗萍、王曉旭、李永振、孟憲行、熊紅華、胡國(guó)平、熊建國(guó)、徐平國(guó)、王小紅等。限于我們的文學(xué)素養(yǎng)和英語(yǔ)水平，書中難免會(huì)有不當(dāng)之處，衷心希望讀者朋友批評(píng)指正。

內(nèi)容概要

本書精選了伊索、拉封丹、克雷洛夫和王爾德等寓言與童話大師的經(jīng)典故事一百多則。其中“落井的驢子”、“自私的巨人”、“狐貍和小公雞”、“驢子和他的鈴鐺”、“狼和小羊”、“仁慈的狐貍”、“快樂王子”、“賣牛奶的女人”、“井底之蛙”等膾炙人口的故事伴隨了一代又一代人的美麗童年、少年直至成年。    無(wú)論作為語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)的課本，還是作為通俗的文學(xué)讀本，本書對(duì)當(dāng)代中國(guó)的青少年學(xué)生都將產(chǎn)生積極的影響。為了使讀者能夠了解英文故事概況，進(jìn)而提高閱讀速度和閱讀水平，在每篇英文傳說故事的開始部分增加了中文導(dǎo)讀。

章節(jié)摘錄

traveler wearied from a long journey laydown, overcome with fatigue, on the very brink of adeep well. Just as he was about to fall into the water,Dame Fortune, it is said, appeared to him and wakinghim from his slumber thus addressed him: “Good Sir, pray wake up: for if youfall into the well, the blame will be thrown on me, and I shall get an ill nameamong mortals; for I find that men are sure to impute their calamities to me,however much by their own folly they have really brought them onthemselves.”Everyone is more or less master of his own fate.learned man has always a fund of riches in himself.Simonides, who wrote such excellent lyric poems, the more easily tosupport his poverty, began to make a tour of the celebrated cities of Asia,singing the praises of victors for such reward as he might receive. After he hadbecome enriched by this kind of gain, he resolved to return to his native land bysea; for he was born, it is said, in the island of Ceos.Accordingly he embarked in a ship, which a dreadful tempest, togetherwith its own rottenness, caused to wreck at sea. Some gathered together theirgirdles, others their precious effects, which formed the support of theirexistence. One who was over-inquisitive, remarked, “Are you going to savenone of your property, Simonides？” He made reply, “All my possessions areabout me.”A few only made their escape by swimming, for the majority, beingweighed down by their burdens, perished. Some thieves too made theirappearance, and seized what each person had saved, leaving him naked.Clazomenae, an ancient city, chanced to be near; to which the shipwreckedpersons repaired. Here a person devoted to the pursuits of literature, who hadoften read the lines of Simonides, and——was a very great admirer of him thoughhe had never seen him, knowing from his very language who he was, receivedhim with the greatest pleasure into his house, and fumished him with clothes,money, and attendants. The others meanwhile were carrying about theirpictures, begging for victuals. Simonides chanced to meet them; and, as soon ashe saw them, remarked: “I told you that all my property was about me; whatyou have endeavoured to save is lost.”
