《红与黑》是法国著名作家、“现代小说之父”司汤达的长篇小说,被誉为“灵魂的哲学诗”,是19世纪法国第一部重要的现实主义杰作,也是文学史上描写政治黑暗经典的著作之一,并开创了后世“意识流小说”、“心理小说”的先河,对19世纪欧洲文学产生了深远的影响。小说出版180多年来,被译成多种文字广为流传,并被多次改编为戏剧、电影,美国作家海明威列为必读书,英国小说家毛姆称之为真正的杰作,1986年法国《读书》杂志推荐为理想藏书。小说叙述了主人公于连的追求、奋斗和失败,塑造的于连这一经典形象已成为个人奋斗的野心家的代名词,是19世纪欧洲文学中一系列反叛资本主义社会的英雄人物的“始祖”。《文学名著:字里行间英文经典:红与黑》为纯英文版。
司汤达(1783—1842),19世纪法国杰出的批判现实主义作家。他的一生不到六十年,并且在文学上的起步很晚,三十几岁才开始发表作品。然而,他却给人类留下了巨大的精神遗产,包括数部长篇,数十个短篇故事,数百万字的文论、随笔和散文、游记。他以准确的人物心理分析和凝练的笔法而闻名,被誉为最重要和最早的现实主义实践者之一,代表作有《红与黑》《巴马修道院》。
