章节摘录

版权页:Not long since, a strolling Indian went to sell baskets at thehouse of a well-known lawyer in my neighborhood. "Do youwish to buy any baskets?" he asked. "No, we do not want any,"was the reply. "What!" exclaimed the Indian as he went out thegate, "do you mean to starve us?" Having seen his industriouswhite neighbors so well off  that the lawyer had only to weavearguments, and, by some magic, wealth and standing followed,he had said to himself: I will go into business; I will weavebaskets; it is a thing which I can do. Thinking that when hehad made the baskets he would have done his part, and then itwould be the white man's to buy them. He had not discoveredthat it was necessary for him to make it worth the other's whileto buy them, or at least make him think that it was so, or tomake something else which it would be worth his while to buy.I too had woven a kind of basket of a delicate texture, but I hadnot made it worth any one's while to buy them. Yet not theless, in my case, did I think it worth my while to weave them,and instead of studying how to make it worth men's while tobuy my baskets, I studied rather how to avoid the necessity ofselling them. The life which men praise and regard as successfulis but one kind. Why should we exaggerate any one kind at theexpense of the others?

Ido not to write an ode to dejection but to brag as lustily as chanticleer in the morning,standing on his roost,if only to wake my neighbors up .  ——H.D.Thoreau.

《瓦尔登湖(英文版)》:Walden or, Life in the Woods, published in i854, itdetails Thoreau's experiences over the course of twoyears in a cabin he built near Walden Pond, amidstwoodland owned by his friend and mentor RalphWaldo Emerson, near Concord, Massachusetts.  Simple living and self-sufficiency were Thoreau'sother goals, and the whole project was inspired bytranscendentalist philosophy, a central theme of theAmerican Romantic Period. As Thoreau made clearin his book, his cabin was not in wilderness but at theedge of town, not far from his family home.

作者简介

In 1845 Thoreau leased some land owned by his friend and mentor,Ralph Waldo Emerson on Walden Pond near Concord,Massachusetts,and lived in a cabin on it for two years,two months,and two days.The experience gave Thoreau the chance to make keen observations on the world around him.The result became an American classic:Walden,which explores not only the soul of the searching Thoreau,but defines what it means to be a truly free person,and distills the essence of our relationship of Nature.

  •     书很不错,是正版的哦,略有瑕疵
  •     这本书装帧普通,丝毫也不华丽,但拿在手里感觉不错,纸张不滑,略显粗糙,颜色也暗,但印刷还好,但总体很轻便,如题,很朴素的一本书,不过倒是契合了梭罗自己的观点呢~这本书的内容自然不用说,很美丽……所以——喜欢(*@ο@*)~

  •     读了大半年,感觉。 后面基本上是一种平时的描写。 其实自然是如此美妙, 我们都奔波于生计,错过。 读到一半的时候,读到了 “Solitary”这一章。 恰好正在读《乌合之众》, 觉得孤独寂寞都是念头和力量,而不是所谓的悲哀的源头。 Enjoy the solitary..
  •     要心情平静的时候才能体会到书中的感觉
  •     经典名著,质量没的说
  •     虽然英文不够好,但对照中文译文经典,还是感觉语言清丽条理清晰,不时闪烁着智慧的光芒,喜欢这样慢慢读书,慢慢感受的好心情!书籍封面朴素,包装简单,却是本可以时时拿在手边翻阅的好书。而且,价格相宜!
  •     感觉:静。
