书籍简介

很多作家站在万神殿外准备进殿。

这时候来了一个人，不和任何人打招呼，昂首走入了万神殿。

这个人就是莎士比亚。

“莎士比亚就是我们自己，是忍受煎熬的凡人俗士，为不大不小的抱负激励，关心钱财，受欲念之害，太平庸了。他的背像个驼峰，驮着一种神奇而又未知何故显得不相干的天才……我们都是威尔。莎士比亚是我们众多救赎者中一位救赎者的名字。 ” ——安东尼•伯吉斯

Among Shakespear's many biographers none brings to his subject more passion and feeling for the creative act than Anthony Burgess. He breathes life into Shakespear the man and invigorates his times. His portrait of the age builds upon an almost personal tenderness for Shakespear and his contemporaries (especially Ben Jonson), and on a profound sense of literary and theatrical history. Anthony Burgess's well-known delight in language infuses his own writing about Shakespear's works. And in the verve of his biography he conveys the energy of the Elizabethan age.

作者简介

安东尼•伯吉斯（Anthony Burgess，1917—1993），英国当代著名小说家，此外拥有诗人、作曲家、剧作家、语言学者和评论家等多重身份，小说代表作有《发条橙》、《尘世权力》，马来亚三部曲等。

伯吉斯是典型的才子型作家，对英国历史博闻强识，研究莎剧深入精微。他在本书中紧扣史实，同时发挥了极大创造力，将这位古往今来最伟大作家的一生写得洒脱别致，动人心弦。伯吉斯本人对文学的敏锐洞察与透辟见解也频频溢出笔端，具有独特的感染力。

伯吉斯关于莎士比亚的另一部作品《一点不像太阳》（Nothing Like the Sun），虚构莎氏青年时代爱情生活的传奇，入选哈罗德·布鲁姆《西方正典》经典书目。

Anthony Burgess was born in Manchester in 1917. He served in the army from 1940 to 1954 before becoming a colonial education officer. It was while he held this post that doctors told him he would die, and he decided to try to live by writing. He achieved a worldwide reputation as one of the leading novelists of his day, and one of the most versitile. His writings include criticism, scripts and translations, and a Broadway musical, and he composed three symphonies which have been publicly performed in the USA. His books have been published all over the world and include A Clockwork Orange, The Clockwork Testament, Inside Mr Enderby, Enderby's Dark Lady, Earthly Powers, Abba Abba and The End of the World News. Anthony Burgess died in 1993.
