編輯推薦

Frankenstein, loved by many decades of readers and praised by such eminent literary critics as Harold Bloom, seems hardly to need a recommendation. If you haven't read it recently, though, you may not remember the sweeping force of the prose, the grotesque, surreal imagery, and the multilayered doppelg?nger themes of Mary Shelley's masterpiece. As fantasy writer Jane Yolen writes of this (the reviewer's favorite) edition, "The strong black and whites of the main text [illustrations] are dark and brooding, with unremitting shadows and stark contrasts. But the central conversation with the monster--who owes nothing to the overused movie image … but is rather the novel's charnel-house composite--is where [Barry] Moser's illustrations show their greatest power... The viewer can all but smell the powerful stench of the monster's breath as its words spill out across the page. Strong book-making for one of the world's strongest and most remarkable books."

內容簡介

Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus is a novel by Mary Shelley. First published in London, England in 1818 (but more often read in the revised third edition of 1831), it is a novel infused with some elements of the Gothic novel and the Romantic movement. It was also a warning against the "over-reaching" of modern man and the Industrial Revolution. (The novel's subtitle, The Modern Prometheus, alludes to the over-reaching and punishment of the character from Greek mythology.) The story has had an influence across literature and popular culture and spawned a complete genre of horror stories and films. Many distinguished authors, such as Brian Aldiss, claim that it is the very first science fiction novel.

"I saw the pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together. I saw the hideous phantasm of a man stretched out, and then, on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life and stir with an uneasy, half-vital motion." A summer evening's ghost stories, lonely insomnia in a moonlit Alpine's room, and a runaway imagination--fired by philosophical discussions with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley about science, galvanism, and the origins of life--conspired to produce for Marry Shelley this haunting night specter. By morning, it had become the germ of her Romantic masterpiece, "Frankenstein."

Written in 1816 when she was only nineteen, Mary Shelley's novel of "The Modern Prometheus" chillingly dramatized the dangerous potential of life begotten upon a laboratory table. A frightening creation myth for our own time, "Frankenstein" remains one of the greatest horror stories ever written and is an undisputed classic of its kind.

作者簡介

The daughter of Mary Wollestonecraft, the ardent feminist and author of A Vindication on the Right of Women, and William Goodwin, the Radical-anarchist philosopher and author of Lives of the Necromancers, Mary Goodwin was born into a freethinking, revolutionary household in London on August 30,1797. Educated mainly by her intellectual surroundings, she had little formal schooling and at sixteen eloped with the young poet Percy Bysshe Shelly; they eventually married in 1816.

Mary Shelly's life had many tragic elements. Her mother died giving birth to Mary; her half-sister committed suicide; Harriet Shelly–Percy's wife dr5owned heself and her unborn child after he ran off with Mary' William Goodwin disowned Mary and Shelly after the elopement, but–heavily in debt–recanted and came to them for money; Mary's first child died soon after its birth; and in 1822 Percy Shelly drowned in the Gulf of La Spezia–when Mary was not quite twenty-five.

Mary Shelly recalled that her husband was "forever inciting" her to "obtain literary reputation." But she did not begin to write seriously until the summer of 1816, when she and Shelly we in Switzerland, neighbor to Lord Byron. One night following a contest to compose ghost stories, Mary conceived her masterpeicve. Frankenstein. After Shelly's death she continued to write Valperga (1823), The Last Man (1826), Ladore (1835), and Faulkner (1837), in addition to editing he husband's works. In 1838 she began to work on his biography, but owing to poor health she completed only a fragment.

Although she received marriage proposals from Trelawney, John Howard Payne, and perhaps Washington Irving, Mary Shelly never remarried. "I want to be Mary Shelly on my tombstone," she is reported to have said. She died on February 1, 1851, survived by he son, Percy Florence.

精彩書評

Grade 9 Up-Full-color drawings, photographs, and reproductions with extended captions have been added to the unedited text of Shelley's novel, thus placing the work in the context of the era in which it was written. The artwork faithfully represents the text and makes this edition appealing to reluctant readers. Unfortunately, many of the captions provide tangential information that, although interesting, interrupts the flow of the story. However, readers will quickly learn that it is not necessary to read every caption and appreciate this volume for its many quality illustrations.

[ZZ]寫的的書都寫得很好,[sm]還是朋友推薦我看的,後來就非非常喜歡,他的書瞭。除瞭他的書,我和我傢小孩還喜歡看鄭淵潔、楊紅櫻、黃曉陽、小橋老樹、王永傑、楊其鐸、曉玲叮當、方洲,他們的書我覺得都寫得很好。[SM],很值得看,價格也非常便宜,比實體店買便宜好多還省車費。 書的內容直得一讀[BJTJ],閱讀瞭一下,寫得很好,[NRJJ],內容也很豐富。[QY],一本書多讀幾次,[SZ]。 快遞送貨也很快。還送貨上樓。非常好。 [SM],超值。買書就來來京東商城。價格還比彆傢便宜,還免郵費不錯,速度還真是快而且都是正版書。[BJTJ],買迴來覺得還是非常值的。我喜歡看書,喜歡看各種各樣的書,看的很雜,文學名著,流行小說都看,隻要作者的文筆不是太差,總能讓我從頭到腳看完整本書。隻不過很多時候是當成故事來看,看完瞭感嘆一番也就丟下瞭。所在來這裏買書是非常明智的。然而,目前社會上還有許多人被一些價值不大的東西所束縛,卻自得其樂,還覺得很滿足。經過幾百年的探索和發展,人們對物質需求已不再迫切,但對於精神自由的需求卻無端被抹殺瞭。總之,我認為現代人最缺乏的就是一種開闊進取,尋找最大自由的精神。 中國人講“虛實相生,天人閤一”的思想,“於空寂處見流行,於流行處見空寂”,從而獲得對於“道”的體悟,“唯道集虛”。這在傳統的藝術中得到瞭充分的體現,因此中國古代的繪畫,提倡“留白”、“布白”,用空白來錶現豐富多彩的想象空間和廣博深廣的人生意味,體現瞭包納萬物、吞吐一切的胸襟和情懷。讓我得到瞭一種生活情趣和審美方式,伴著筆墨的清香,細細體味,那自由孤寂的靈魂,高尚清真的人格魅力,在尋求美的道路上指引著我,讓我拋棄浮躁的世俗,嚮美學叢林的深處邁進。閤上書,閉上眼,書的餘香猶存,而我腦海裏浮現的,是一個“皎皎明月,仙仙白雲,鴻雁高翔,綴葉如雨”的衝淡清幽境界。願我們身邊多一些主教般光明的使者,有更多人能加入到助人為樂、見義勇為的隊伍中來。社會需要這樣的人,世界需要這樣的人,隻有這樣我們纔能創造我們的生活,[NRJJ]希望下次還呢繼續購買這裏的書籍,這裏的書籍很好,非常的不錯,。給我帶來瞭不錯的現實享受。希望下次還呢繼續購買這裏的書籍,這裏的書籍很好,非常的不錯,。給我帶來瞭不錯的現實享受。
