Jean-Marie-Mathias-Philippe-Auguste, comte de Villiers de l'Isle-Adam(7 November 1838–19 August 1889) was a French symbolist writer.
Villiers' works, in the romantic style, are often fantastic in plot and filled with mystery and horror. Important among them are the drama Axel (1890), the novel L'Ève future ("Tomorrow's Eve") (1886), and the short-story collection, Contes cruels (1883, tr. Sardonic Tales, 1927). Contes cruels is regarded as an important collection of horror stories. [3] L'Ève future greatly helped to popularize the term "Android" (Androïde in French, the character is named "Andréide").
Take one inventive genius indebted to the friend who saved his life; add an English aristocrat hopelessly consumed with a selfish and spiritually bankrupt woman; stir together with a Faustian pact to create the perfect woman-and voil! "Tomorrow's Eve" is served. Robert Martin Adams's graceful translation is the first to bring to English readers this captivating fable of a Thomas Edison-like inventor and his creation, the radiant and tragic android Hadaly. Adams's introduction sketches the uncompromising idealism of the proud but penurious aristocrat Jean Marie Mathias Philippe Auguste, Count Villiers de l'Isle-Adam, a friend and admired colleague of Charles Baudelaire, Stphane Mallarm, and Richard Wagner.Villiers dazzles us with a gallery of electronic wonders while unsettling us with the implications of his (and our) increasingly mechanized and mechanical society. A witty and acerbic tale in which human nature, spiritual values, and scientific possibilities collide, "Tomorrow's Eve" retains an enduring freshness and edge.

评分因为GITS里有太多借鉴了这书,所以想读。 翻遍了网络,中文版无,电子版只有法文的,电子英文版节选在GOOGLE数字图书馆可以找到。完整的英文版只有去AMAZON或者EBAY买实体书了,加上运费确实让人心痛。 求有爱的人分享下扫描的电子版咯,或则二手转让实体书也行。当然,仅限英...
评分首先,等了好多年的这本书终于出中文版了,不管翻译怎么样,反正是看着了,恭喜一下。碰巧今年机器工人的舆论甚嚣尘上,不知道是不是巧合呢。 本书是日本动漫《攻壳机动队》的原型所在,更是满街的手机程序,“安卓”的原型,当然了,这都是噱头,要是没有这么两个还算说得过...
评分我喜欢这个结尾。胸腔里一阵虚空和幻灭。 刚听到爱迪生的建议,我像埃瓦尔德一样,充满怀疑和否定。人怎么可能对一个没有生命之物付出感情,想来如此荒谬和可笑。可是直到出现我深爱的一幕。以艾莉西亚身份出现的安卓,在花园里和埃瓦尔德密谈。她有恰好的柔情,恰好的沉默,...
