书籍简介

“在美国戏剧史上，从未有过如此多的黑人生活真相在舞台上展现出来，”詹姆斯·鲍德温在 1959 年《阳光下的葡萄干》在百老汇上演前不久说道。

本版呈现了汉斯伯里里程碑式作品的完整修复版和未删减版，并由罗伯特·内米罗夫作序。

洛林·汉斯伯里的这部获奖戏剧讲述了一个生活在芝加哥南区的苦苦挣扎的工薪阶层家庭的希望和抱负，与美国黑人的心理有着深刻的联系——并永远改变了美国戏剧。该剧的标题来自兰斯顿·休斯的诗《哈莱姆》中的一句诗，它警告说，一个被推迟的梦想可能会“像阳光下的葡萄干一样干涸”。

“每年发生的事件都给《阳光下的葡萄干》增添了共鸣，”《纽约时报》评论道。“历史似乎在密谋让这部戏剧成为经典。”

"Never before, in the entire history of the American theater, has so much of the truth of Black people's lives been seen on the stage," observed James Baldwin shortly before A Raisin in the Sun opened on Broadway in 1959.

This edition presents the fully restored, uncut version of Hansberry's landmark work with an introduction by Robert Nemiroff.

Lorraine Hansberry's award-winning drama about the hopes and aspirations of a struggling, working-class family living on the South Side of Chicago connected profoundly with the psyche of Black America—and changed American theater forever. The play's title comes from a line in Langston Hughes's poem "Harlem," which warns that a dream deferred might "dry up/like a raisin in the sun."

"The events of every passing year add resonance to A Raisin in the Sun," said The New York Times. "It is as if history is conspiring to make the play a classic."

作者简介

29 岁的洛林·汉斯伯里成为获得纽约戏剧评论界年度戏剧奖的年轻美国人、第五位女性和黑人剧作家。她的《阳光下的葡萄干》此后已在 30 多个国家出版和制作，而她的电影改编作品被纽约评论家提名为剧本佳奖，并获得戛纳电影节奖。34 岁时，在她的第二部戏剧《西德尼·布鲁斯坦窗外的标志》上演期间，洛林·汉斯伯里因癌症去世。在她去世后的几年里，她的地位不断提高。《年轻、有天赋和黑人》以她自己的语言描绘了这位剧作家的戏剧形象，是 1969 年上演时间长的非百老汇戏剧，并被录制、拍摄和出版成扩展书籍，并在四十个州和两百所大学巡回演出。 1986 年，纽约市 Roundabout 剧院为纪念《阳光下的葡萄干》 25 周年在舞台上演出，该剧被广泛赞誉为美国经典剧目中的佼佼者。1990 年，PBS 美国剧场根据 25 周年纪念版改编的电视版成为 PBS 历史上收视率高的剧目之一。她的戏剧《Les Blancs》——死后在百老汇上演，又在知名的地方剧院上演——被许多评论家誉为她的优秀的作品。

Lorraine Hansberry, at twenty-nine, became the youngest American, the fifth woman, and the first black playwright to win the New York Drama Critics Circle Award for the Best Play of the Year. Her A Raisin in the Sun has since been published and produced in some 30 countries, while her film adaptation was nominated by the New York critics for the Best Screenplay and received a Cannes Film Festival Award. At thirty-four, during the run of her second play, The Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window, Lorraine Hansberry died of cancer. In the years since her death, her stature has continued to grow. To Be Young, Gifted and Black, a dramatic portrait of the playwright in her own words, was the longest-running Off-Broadway drama of 1969, and has been recorded, filmed, and published in expanded book form, and has toured an unprecedented forty states and two hundred colleges. In 1986, following the stage production of the 25th anniversary of A Raisin in the Sun by the Roundabout Theatre in New York City, the play was widely acclaimed as in the foremost ranks of American classics. In 1990, the PBS American Playhouse TV adaptation of the 25th-anniversary version had one of the highest viewing audiences in PBS history. Les Blancs, her last play—posthumously performed on Broadway and recently in prominent regional theaters—has been hailed by a number of critics as her best.
