书籍简介

托马斯-格雷的《墓园挽歌》在几个世纪以来一直受到人们的喜爱和赞誉。这首诗起初只在特定的朋友圈里流传，1751年才匆匆正式出版，以避免未经这位年轻诗人许可而出售盗版。这首诗被塞缪尔-约翰逊称赞，在格雷生前被反复重印，并被几代学童传诵，是英语中知名的诗歌之一。

这个新版本再现了艾格尼丝-米勒-帕克受这首诗启发而创作的精美的木刻版画，这些作品完成于1938年。这首诗的所有三十二节都配有详细的全页插图。为纪念诗人逝世250周年，该版本不仅会给《墓园挽歌》带来新的读者，也会吸引那些已经熟悉其丰富内容的读者。

Thomas Gray’s Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard has been loved and admired throughout the centuries. First circulated to a select group of friends, it was rushed to official publication in 1751 to avoid pirated copies being sold without the young poet’s permission. Praised by Samuel Johnson, reprinted repeatedly in Gray’s lifetime, and recited by generations of schoolchildren, it is one of the most famous poems in the English language.

This new edition reproduces Agnes Miller Parker’s exquisite wood engravings inspired by the poem, which were completed in 1938. All thirty-two stanzas of the poem are accompanied by detailed full-page illustrations. Commemorating the 250th anniversary of the poet’s death, this edition will not only bring new readers to the Elegy but will also appeal to those already familiar with its riches.
