Rip Van Winkle pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025
Washington Irving was born in New York in 1873, the son of a British merchant and the youngest of eleven children. He trained as a lawyer, but practised only briefly, preferring to work as a journalist and writer of essays and poems, some of which were published as a book, Salmagundi, in 1808.
In 1809, he introduced the eccentric Dutch character Dietrich Knickerbocker, supposedly a collctor of stories and a historian of the Dutch regime in New York. The Sketch Book, published in 1820, contained essays about life in England, which Irving has recently visited, as well as adaptations of German folk tales, among them Rip Van Winkle and The Legend of Spleepy Hollow, which won him international fame.
Irving was appointed diplomatic attache to Spain (1826-9), then secretary to the US Legation in London (1829-32). He continued to write, and his later works included Legends of the Alhambra(1832), A Tour of the Prairies(1835) and a five-volume biography of George Washington, of which the first volume was published in 1855 and the last in 1859, the year of Irving's death.

Poor Rip Van Winkle is married to a
terrible nag of a woman and never seems
to be able to do anything right. His only
peace comes when he heads into the
Catskill Mountains on his own to do a bit
of hunting or fishing. One day, during just
such a trip, he meets a strange man
carrying a keg of liquor and is tempted
to taste just a little of it. He falls asleep
and when he awakens again, the world
is inexplicably different from the one he
left behind.
What has become of his wife, his children
and his trusty dog? Why does no one in
the village recognize h m? This classic
tale is an amusing and thought-provoking
read.

In the 20-year sleep came an end to despotism, freeing Rip Van Winkle from "petticoat government" and the States from Old England, his Majesty.
