作者简介艾萨克·巴什维斯·辛格,美国作家。出生于沙俄统治下的波兰,15岁开始文学创作。其短篇小说创作尤其突出,有《傻瓜吉姆佩尔及其他故事》《市场街的斯宾诺莎》《羽毛的王冠》《梅休塞拉赫之死及其他故事》等。1978年,由于“他的充满激情的叙事艺术,这种艺术既扎根于波兰犹太人的文化传统,又反映了人类的普遍处境”,辛格获诺贝尔文学奖。辛格被称为“当代最会讲故事的作家”。他主张作家创作要起到娱乐读者的作用,让读者得到艺术享受。所以他的故事叙述生动,文笔轻松幽默,作品中丰富的成语和活泼的句法受到评论界的高度赞扬,认为那是任何译文都无法传达的。
About the Author Isaac Bashvir Singh, American writer. Born in Poland under the tsarist Russia, he started his literary creation at the age of 15. His short story creation is especially prominent with “Fool Jim Perl and Other Stories”, “Spinoza on Market Street”, “The Crown of Feathers,” “The Death and Other Stories of Meuchsellach” and many more. In 1978, Singh won the Nobel Prize for literature due to “his passionate narrative art, which is rooted in the Polish Jewish cultural tradition and reflects the general human condition.” Singh is known as “the most contemporary storyteller”. He advocates that writers play the role of entertaining readers and allow readers to enjoy the arts. Therefore, his story is vivid and his writing is light and humorous. The rich idioms and vivid syntax of his works are highly praised by the critics, who think it is impossible for any translation to convey.
