書籍簡介

很多作家站在萬神殿外準備進殿。

這時候來了一個人，不和任何人打招呼，昂首走入了萬神殿。

這個人就是莎士比亞。

“莎士比亞就是我們自己，是忍受煎熬的凡人俗士，為不大不小的抱負激勵，關心錢財，受慾念之害，太平庸了。他的背像個駝峯，馱着一種神奇而又未知何故顯得不相干的天才……我們都是威爾。莎士比亞是我們眾多救贖者中一位救贖者的名字。 ” ——安東尼?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.

作者簡介

安東尼?伯吉斯（Anthony Burgess，1917—1993），英國當代著名小説家，此外擁有詩人、作曲家、劇作家、語言學者和評論家等多重身份，小説代表作有《發條橙》、《塵世權力》，馬來亞三部曲等。

伯吉斯是典型的才子型作家，對英國曆史博聞強識，研究莎劇深入精微。他在本書中緊扣史實，同時發揮了極大創造力，將這位古往今來最偉大作家的一生寫得灑脱別緻，動人心絃。伯吉斯本人對文學的敏鋭洞察與透闢見解也頻頻溢出筆端，具有獨特的感染力。

伯吉斯關於莎士比亞的另一部作品《一點不像太陽》（Nothing Like the Sun），虛構莎氏青年時代愛情生活的傳奇，入選哈羅德·布魯姆《西方正典》經典書目。

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, *s 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.
