《包法利夫人》這個(gè)故事題材并非福樓拜憑空編造。整個(gè)故事情節(jié)都取自于現(xiàn)實(shí)生活。夏爾·包法利是根據(jù)福樓拜父親醫(yī)院的實(shí)習(xí)醫(yī)生歐解·德拉瑪原型塑造出來的懷揣浪漫主義夢(mèng)想的農(nóng)村美少女艾瑪,一面吟誦著那些關(guān)于大海、森林、星星等描述自然的詩(shī)篇文字,一面走向遠(yuǎn)離自然、充滿物質(zhì)與欲望的都市。艾瑪嫁給夏爾初期,心中充滿著對(duì)美好婚姻生活的期盼,她使盡渾身解數(shù),拿出了她所了解的所有浪漫手段:吟詩(shī)作畫、彈琴唱歌。怎奈既無騎士樣貌又怯懦平庸、木訥遲鈍、舉止粗俗、不解風(fēng)情的丈夫毫無情趣,在性關(guān)系上也不能滿足她的需求,她很快喪失了對(duì)丈夫的耐心,她的婚姻變成一潭死水。于是,她決定沖出“牢籠”、尋找心目中浪漫的“愛情”。自從踏上追愛的路,艾瑪?shù)谋瘎∶\(yùn)便已注定。艾瑪一生經(jīng)歷了蛻變、墮落和毀滅三個(gè)階段。福樓拜的筆就像一把手術(shù)刀,把艾瑪人性中的全部弱點(diǎn)解剖得體無完膚……最重要的一點(diǎn)是,此次所出版的英譯本,是最權(quán)威版本,同時(shí)也是無刪節(jié)版的英譯本。

Thomas Hardy's final novel "Jude the Obscure" began as a serial publication on December 1894 before being published in book form the following year. It is the story of its titular character Jude Fawley, a young lower-class man with dreams of being a scholar, and his relationships with his wife, Arabella, and his free-spirited cousin, Sue Bridehead. The novel follows the life of Jude from his youth living in a village in southern England where he works in a bakery and studies Classical Greek and Latin in his spare time with hopes of one day becoming a scholar at Christminster, a fictional city modeled after Oxford. His dreams are dashed however when he becomes ensnared by deceit into marriage with Arabella Donn, a coarse and superficial girl. What follows is a classic and tragic tale that plays upon many themes, principally of which is the idea that one's ruinous downfall is the product of having lived a sinful life. Having been harshly criticized in its day for its scandalous portrayals, "Jude the Obscure" has since been recognized as one of Hardy's finest and most intricate works.
《野性的呼喚》是由20世紀(jì)初美國(guó)著名小說家杰克·倫敦所著,并于1903年發(fā)表。全書以19世紀(jì)淘金熱為大背景,當(dāng)時(shí),強(qiáng)壯的拉雪橇的狗成為搶手貨。小說主人公是一條名叫巴克的狗,本來它是家養(yǎng)的,但被人偷走,變賣到生存環(huán)境十分惡劣的阿拉斯加,去拉雪橇。巴克不得不強(qiáng)迫自己適應(yīng)環(huán)境,與其他的狗打架爭(zhēng)奪地位,最終生存下來,并成為動(dòng)物群中的首領(lǐng)。該書出版后,即給杰克倫敦贏得巨大聲譽(yù)。早在1908年,該書就被改編成電影,此后,又多次被拍攝成電影。小說《白狼》于1906年出版發(fā)行,大背景也是19世紀(jì)的淘金熱潮,也是從狗的角度,來看待人類的小說,可以說是《野性的呼喚》的姊妹篇,小說在人性、道德與救贖方面都有很深刻的探索。該小說多次被排成電影,最后一次是1991年,被好萊塢排成電影,受到觀眾們的歡迎。本版本是美國(guó)人最認(rèn)可的哥登堡權(quán)威本。
