威廉·福剋納(1897—1962)是美國20世紀著名的文學傢,1949年諾貝爾文學奬的獲得者。 他齣生於南方密西西比州北部一個莊園主後代的傢庭。他的曾祖父威廉·福剋納在當地曆史上是個傳奇性的人物。 他綽號叫“老上校”,白手起傢,南北戰爭時統帥過南軍的一支隊伍。 戰後,他修建過鐵路,當過州議員,創立過大學,最後成為莊園主,另外還寫過一本小說。 他在與仇傢鬥毆中殺死過兩個人,最後自己也為仇傢所殺。 到福剋納的父親墨雷時,傢道已經中落。 福剋納傢庭從極盛到衰落的過程,是他創作的重要素材。 他的許多作品的地理背景都是他虛構的一個位於密西西比州北部的約剋納帕塔法縣,因而這類作品被稱作為“約剋納帕塔法世係”,他本人也成為“南方文藝復興”的重要代錶。他的代錶作有《沙多裏斯》(Sartoris)(1929),《喧嘩與騷動》(The Sound and the Fury)(1929),《押沙龍,押沙龍!》(Absalom, Absalom!)(1936),《熊》(The Bear)等。 福剋納的作品描繪瞭南方社會的變遷,各階層人物的浮沉起落,人與社會的關係,罪惡與贖罪問題,金錢的汙染與保持良心純潔的努力,物質文明對傳統的威脅等。 從形式看,他采用瞭“意識流”的手法、多角度敘述方法、時續顛倒、象徵等,句式長而復雜,詞匯晦澀難懂,藉以錶達撲朔迷離、變換莫測的復雜生活。 本文以飽含感情的語言講述瞭文學的功用以及作傢的責任。
The 2005 Summer Selection is available in an exclusive three volume boxed edition that includes a special reader’s guide with an introduction by Oprah Winfrey.
Titles include:
As I Lay Dying
This novel is the harrowing account of the Bundren family’s odyssey across the Mississippi countryside to bury Addie, their wife and mother. Told in turns by each of the family members–including Addie herself–the novel ranges in mood from dark comedy to the deepest pathos. Originally published in 1930.
The Sound and the Fury
First published in 1929, Faulkner created his “heart’s darling,” the beautiful and tragic Caddy Compson, whose story Faulkner told through separate monologues by her three brothers–the idiot Benjy, the neurotic suicidal Quentin and the monstrous Jason.
Light in August
Light in August , a novel about hopeful perseverance in the face of mortality, features some of Faulkner’s most memorable characters: guileless, dauntless Lena Grove, in search of the father of her unborn child; Reverend Gail Hightower, who is plagued by visions of Confederate horsemen; and Joe Christmas, a desperate, mysterious drifter consumed by his mixed ancestry. Originally published in 1932.
