(1)哈代(1840-1928)出生于英国多赛特郡的一个小村子,他的家乡是英国最贫困落后的地区之一。哈代的父亲是个砖瓦匠人的领班,不过小提琴拉得很好,还是教区唱诗班的成员。哈代继承了父亲的音乐天分,喜欢在父亲的伴奏下跳舞。哈代的母亲做过女佣,但是非常喜欢读书,尤其是古典文学类书籍,算得上是哈代的启蒙老师,使他从小就产生了对文学艺术的兴趣。 (1) Hardy (1840-1928) was born in a small village in Dorset, England, and his hometown is one of the poorest and most under-developed areas in Britain. Hardy’s father was a bricklayer’s foreman, but the violin was well-drawn and a member of the parish choir. Hardy inherited his father’s musical talent, like to dance with his father’s accompaniment. Hardy’s mother had been a maid, but very much like reading, especially classical literature books, regarded as Hardy’s enlightenment teacher, so he had an interest in literature and art.
