The poor little Swallow grew colder and colder,but he would not leavethe Prince,he loved him too well.He picked up crumbs outside the

封面是“济慈与夜莺”,内容集合了The Happy Prince and Other Tales (1888) 以及 A House of Pomegranates (1891)两本童话集。书从内容美到封面,所有一切都笼着一层美丽的纱,故事里更是满满的美少年之心。两部童话集收录在一起,风格却相去甚远。石榴屋里的故事明显要晦涩得...

“What a silly thing love is.” “Everybody knows that jewels cost far more than flowers.” 这两句话,想刻在骨灰盒上。 毕业论文的研究文本选了夜莺与玫瑰和快乐王子,拖延好久,今天开始写文本分析。 这两个故事的各种译本,一年来读了也有快十种了,但是开始做细节分...
