In 1946, acclaimed author Philip Pullman was born in Norwich, England, into a Protestant family. Although his beloved grandfather was an Anglican priest, Pullman became an atheist in his teenage years. He graduated from Exeter College in Oxford with a degree in English, and spent 23 years as a teacher while working on publishing 13 books and numerous short stories. Pullman has received many awards for his literature, including the prestigious Carnegie Medal for exceptional children's literature in 1996, and the Carnegie of Carnegies in 2006. He is most famous for his His Dark Materials trilogy, a series of young adult fantasy novels which feature free-thought themes. The novels cast organized religion as the series' villain. Pullman told The New York Times in 2000: "When you look at what C.S. Lewis is saying, his message is so anti-life, so cruel, so unjust. The view that the Narnia books have for the material world is one of almost undisguised contempt. At one point, the old professor says, 'It's all in Plato'—meaning that the physical world we see around us is the crude, shabby, imperfect, second-rate copy of something much better. I want to emphasize the simple physical truth of things, the absolute primacy of the material life, rather than the spiritual or the afterlife." He argues for a "republic of heaven" here on Earth.

In 2007, the first novel of the His Dark Materials trilogy was adopted into the motion picture The Golden Compass by New Line Cinema. Many churches and Christian organizations, including the Catholic League, called for a boycott of the film due to the books' atheist themes. While the film was successful in Europe and moderately received in the United States, the other two books in the trilogy were not be adapted into film, possibly due to pressure from the Catholic Church. When questioned about the anti-church views in His Dark Materials, Pullman explains in an interview for Third Way (UK): “It comes from history. It comes from the record of the Inquisition, persecuting heretics and torturing Jews and all that sort of stuff; and it comes from the other side, too, from the Protestants burning the Catholics. It comes from the insensate pursuit of innocent and crazy old women, and from the Puritans in America burning and hanging the witches—and it comes not only from the Christian church but also from the Taliban. Every single religion that has a monotheistic god ends up by persecuting other people and killing them because they don't accept him. Wherever you look in history, you find that. It's still going on" (Feb. 2002). Pullman has received many threats by ardent believers over his choice of subject matter.

In a landmark epic of fantasy and storytelling, Philip Pullman invites readers into a world as convincing and thoroughly realized as Narnia, Earthsea, or Redwall. Here lives an orphaned ward named Lyra Belacqua, whose carefree life among the scholars at Oxford's Jordan College is shattered by the arrival of two powerful visitors. First, her fearsome uncle, Lord Asriel, appears with evidence of mystery and danger in the far North, including photographs of a mysterious celestial phenomenon called Dust and the dim outline of a city suspended in the Aurora Borealis that he suspects is part of an alternate universe. He leaves Lyra in the care of Mrs. Coulter, an enigmatic scholar and explorer who offers to give Lyra the attention her uncle has long refused her. In this multilayered narrative, however, nothing is as it seems. Lyra sets out for the top of the world in search of her kidnapped playmate, Roger, bearing a rare truth-telling instrument, the compass of the title. All around her children are disappearing—victims of so-called "Gobblers"—and being used as subjects in terrible experiments that separate humans from their daemons, creatures that reflect each person's inner being. And somehow, both Lord Asriel and Mrs. Coulter are involved.

具體描述

讀後感

評分

虽然是儿童文学作品,不过挺适合快要麻木的大人们读。从孩子的视角出发来探究一个神秘的真相。整个情节紧凑、新鲜、繁多却不杂乱。对于事物、人物环境的描述都相当的令人有联想感。让人能够一口气看下去。故事情节一直在向前推进,整个的节奏非常的好。  

評分

原本是想看电影的,但听说除了特技和妮可,电影实在乏善可呈,于是就找来了书。 莱拉就是一个野孩子,孤傲、冲动、爱恶作剧、有领导欲,但同时由于她和精灵之间的守望相助又凸现了让人怜爱的个性特质。比哈里·波特更厉害的是,这个孩子还未出生就被人反复谈论,这样的...

評分

书不仅比电影好很多,做为一本儿童读物,其中的一些内含更是达到了主流文学的水准,这是国内很多出版物所不及的。记忆深刻的几个情节: 1. 预言中说,小主人公莱拉的行为不能受到他人的诱导,否则世界将会走向灭亡。 (我们生活的社会存在太多的诱导了,小致商品,大到家国。...  

評分

我可不喜欢小孩子,尤其是调皮捣蛋好奇心过剩精力旺盛的小孩子,所以莱拉的出场秀就让我对她产生了一点点负面看法。 读到第一部的三分之一处,尚觉得真是朴实的科幻小说,精灵也许是后来无数小说借鉴的经典,真理仪则是预言。但还是觉得很朴实,似乎在读普通小说,而不是科幻。...  

評分

很早之前看完这一部,之后过了好几年才知道它被改编成电影,而且是非常大的制作。有一个朋友看完电影后说它“想模仿哈利波特,但是没有哈利波特好看,虽然也可以看看”。由于当时我还没有看过电影,所以也无法表达自己的意见。看过电影后,觉得这位朋友就电影的评价是正确的。...
