青春蝴蝶孤戀花

白先勇

白先勇先是「現代文學傳燈人」，後來又為「傳統戲曲傳教士」，2004年，雙流交匯，白先勇以青春版《牡丹亭》紅遍大江南北，更因《孽子》連續劇賺盡兩岸三地無數觀眾熱淚。人人想問的是，他的下一個精彩演出會是什麼？ 2005年春天，千呼萬喚，『孤戀花』滿街綻放。這部戲，由公認最能曲盡白氏原著精神的《孽子》導演曹瑞原再度執掌，名作家蕭颯編劇，袁詠儀、李心潔、蕭淑慎、庹宗華擔綱演出，深度呈現「浮生亂世，單純之愛」，從上海到台北，離亂人間，糾纏不盡的異性、同性恩怨情愛……。紅火蔓燒，自是可期。 與此同時，遵循《奼紫嫣紅牡丹亭》模式，白先勇也與遠流出版二度合作，耗資百萬，製作一本前此未見的影像書《青春蝴孤戀花》，並為「遠流三十週年慶」的鉅獻。此書特別邀請夙負盛名，侯孝賢、林懷民均稱讚不已的台灣平面設計大師劉開全程擘畫製作，內容除「我寫孤戀花」（白先勇）、「我導孤戀花」（曹瑞原）、「我編孤戀花」（蕭颯）、「我聽孤戀花」（陳小霞）、「我演孤戀花」（袁詠儀、李心潔、蕭淑慎），詳述演編導過程，且由白先勇與年輕作家張娟芬、陳雪、曾秀萍對談「女性之間的感情世界」，更附小說〈孤戀花〉原文、歌詞。 為了突破前此「影視書」圖片僅能依附影視，無法獨立的窠臼。此書圖文編輯、裝幀設計，乃至開本，均有重大突破，首先是以「女性之間的感情世界」為主調，慎選劇照，同時搭配維吉妮亞‧吳爾芙《我的房間》的文字，一新讀者耳目。兩者緊密搭配，渾然一體，除了顯現「經典文學」跨越時空，無遠弗屆的文字力量，也彰顯「女性追求屬於自我的空間」、永不放棄的奮鬥。兩相激盪，予人以「異代同命」的感嘆，也將讀者帶入一個愴然難忘的閱讀氛圍之中。 裝幀設計方面，全書不計市場規格，堅持以大八開版本，十足呈現精彩劇照，配合六色印刷，更賦予全書獨立調性，讓人深刻領會小說文字與影像感人肺腑、震撼視覺之所在。堪稱近年來難得一見，圖文並茂，設計與理念同行的絕佳好書。

白先勇的文藝復興

白先勇

白先勇就讀臺大外文系期間，與一批愛好文學的同學們在一九六○年創辦了《現代文學》雜誌，期冀為臺灣開創一條嶄新的文學道路，也開啟了他的文藝復興夢，迄今正好一甲子六十年。 從文學入戲劇，《遊園驚夢》到《孽子》舞臺劇製作，樹立戲劇表演里程碑，並號召文化界復興崑曲美學，打造青春版《牡丹亭》，讓此一四百年歷史之經典劇目得到傳承，目前全世界已演出三百餘場。更講授《紅樓夢》課程，細讀重評天下第一書。他所念茲在茲者，皆是重新發掘傳統文化精髓，接續當代文化的一場「文藝復興」工程。 《白先勇的文藝復興》是深刻理解白先勇文化推動脈絡最為完整的著作。

現文因緣

白先勇

台灣文學史上第一本完整記錄 《現代文學》雜誌創刊、休刊、復刊、停刊、重刊的故事與因緣 38位作家娓娓道出各自與雜誌之間的因緣互動 增收1959年白先勇致夏濟安信件 及從未公開發表的夏濟安〈祝辭〉專文等10篇文章 由行政院文化獎得獎人董陽孜女士題寫書名 經典重現，為時代做一註解。 現在沒有什麼「派」什麼「體」可供模仿，只好憑自己的本事來摸索，來創造了。你們也許會成一個什麼「派」，創一種什麼「體」，也許還會有那種不爭氣的生在 你們以後的人來模仿你們。你們現在既然不能模仿，那只有創造了。不用說，你們的責任重大，你們的工作艱鉅。 ── 夏濟安 這本雜誌結集了青年精英，做「五四」的再傳播，傳播民主和科學─現代化的種子，影響力普遍而深遠。我不是說其他一些優秀的刊物沒有這麼做，而是其他一些優秀的刊物，沒有《現代文學》這麼早和這麼認真。 ── 柏楊 《現文因緣》，收集了《現文》作家的回憶文章，這些文章看了令人感動，因為都寫得真情畢露，他們敘述了個人與這本雜誌結緣的始末，但不約而同的，每個人對那段消逝已久的青春歲月，都懷有依依不捨的眷念。 ── 白先勇 我和幾乎所有全部為《現代文學》的創刊，休刊，復刊有關係的朋友一樣，我們都不約而同保有一份對新文學之現代精神的期待，所以在一長期，延續的過程裡，我和他們曾經確切地以這刊物為重心，在互相噓問關照著，互相激勵，安慰著。 ── 楊牧 回望《現文》，似乎它一直就注定了是個「新銳」雜誌，一批批年輕的學子參與，然後離開走上他們各自更成熟的道路。因而《現文》標誌的正是在那一段歲月中，許多人的青春。 ── 柯慶明 《現代文學》雜誌是台灣文學史上重要的文學雜誌之一。1960年3月5日，由台大外文系的白先勇、歐陽子、陳若曦、王文興等人發起，張先緒設計封面，劉紹銘撰寫發刊詞的第一期《現代文學》創刊了，從此創造台灣文學史上的一頁傳奇，開拓了許多台灣作家和讀者的文學視野。 《現代文學》雜誌致力於發掘新作家，以研究並提倡最新文學寫作技巧為宗旨，一方面譯介西方現代主義文學作品如卡夫卡、福克納、海明威、喬伊斯、勞倫斯、卡繆、艾略特等人的創作與理論，一方面刊載大量的短篇小說、散文等創作，造就許多迄今猶屹立文壇的詩人、小說家，例如王禎和、施叔青、黃春明、陳映真、七等生、李昂……等，對於台灣文學有非常大的貢獻，是引領台灣現代主義潮流的關鍵刊物，在帶動1960年代台灣的現代文學進程上，具有指標性的意義。 《現代文學》出版發行的13年間，編輯人事不斷變動，從雙月刊轉為季刊，出刊至1973年9月第51期後因為資金問題宣布停刊。1977年7月遠景出版社負責人沈登恩支持復刊《現代文學》，到1984年5月發行了第22期後再度停刊。1991年12月，當時任職於《聯合報‧聯合副刊》、《聯合文學》雜誌的丘彥明，有感於《現代文學》雜誌在台灣文學史上的影響力，策畫重刊《現代文學》雜誌，編纂整理曾於《現代文學》雜誌上發表過文章的作家大事年表及作品索引，同時廣邀與《現代文學》雜誌曾經有關係的主編和作家們撰寫、記錄、過去編輯雜誌時，或投稿、校稿過程的回憶與往事。於是復刊前的51期雜誌變成19冊精裝合訂本，由現文出版社出版發行。《現文因緣》原隨《現代文學》重刊問世，為套書之一冊，並未單獨發售。經時日淘洗早已絕版，現重新編排出版，為時代做見證，留下美麗的文學印記。 ※ 本書作者群（依姓氏筆畫排列）： 三 毛、水 晶、王文興、王禎和、白先勇、朱西寗、何 欣、余光中、李 昂、李 黎、李歐梵、杜國清、辛 鬱、林清玄、林懷民、姚一葦、施叔青、柏 楊、柯慶明、夏志清、夏濟安、奚 淞、荊 棘、張 錯、陳雨航、陳映真、陳若曦、楊 牧、葉維廉、蓉 子、劉大任、劉紹銘、歐陽子、鄭樹森、戴 天、鍾 玲、叢 甦、羅 門

Sense and Sensibility

Jane Austen

Jane Austen’s first published novel, Sense and Sensibility, is a witty satire of the sentimental novel, a popular genre in Britain throughout the 1790s and the Regency. When it first appeared in 1811, the words in its title carried significant cultural weight beyond the confines of the novel, and into both popular and learned discourse. Through her dual heroines, Austen addresses, and satirizes, notions of sense and sensibility, and engages with the issues of inheritance, marriage, and love. The story concerns two sisters: the level-headed Elinor and the passionate and impulsive Marianne. When their father dies, his son by a previous marriage assumes possession of the family home. Marianne and Elinor, left to the care of their mercenary brother John and his wife Fanny, must remove to a cottage with their mother. Each sister meets a man in whom she is interested, and as with other Austen novels, requited love does not come easily. This newly annotated edition offers a thorough and perceptive introduction and a wide range of carefully selected contextual materials that further explore the term “sensibility.”

The Brothers Karamazov

Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Dostoyevsky's famous and well-regarded 1880 novel, The Brothers Karamazov, is a tale of bitter family rivalries. Three brothers live in a small, typical Russian town. Their father, a selfish, cunning, lascivious figure with little love for them, tries to maintain his control over them and anyone who comes within his orbit. The roots of dissent, unhappiness, hope, ambition and desire run deep in this community as everywhere, and Dostoyevsky brings them to the fore with an unexpected death.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

Mark Twain

This childhood classic relates a small-town boy's pranks and escapades with timeless humor and wisdom. In addition to his everyday stunts (searching for buried treasure, trying to impress the adored Becky Thatcher), Tom experiences a dramatic turn of events when he witnesses a murder, runs away, and returns to attend his own funeral and testify in court. A selection of the Common Core State Standards Initiative.

Revolutionary Road

Richard Yates

Set in 1955, the novel focuses on the hopes and aspirations of Frank and April Wheeler, self-assured Connecticut suburbanites who see themselves as very different from their neighbors in the Revolutionary Hill Estates. In the opening scene, April stars in an embarrassingly bad amateur dramatic production of The Petrified Forest. After the performance, Frank and April have a fight on the side of the highway, and Frank later begins an affair with his office colleague Maureen Grube. Seeking to break out of their suburban rut (and consequently blaming herself for all of Frank's "problems"), April convinces Frank they should move to Paris, where she will work and support him while he realizes his vague ambition to be something other than an office worker. The promise of France brings the two together in love and excitement again, and Frank seemingly ends his relationship with Maureen. While April sees the emigration as an opportunity to escape their bland environment, Frank's plans are more driven by vanity of his own intelligence, which April panders to. When the dull and prim neighbor Mrs. Givings begins bringing her "insane" son John around to the Wheelers' house for regular lunches, John's honest and erratic condemnation of his mother's suburban lifestyle strikes a chord with the Wheelers, particularly Frank. Their plans to leave the United States begin to crumble when April conceives their third child, and Frank begins to identify with his mundane job when the prospect of a promotion arises. After arguing over the possibility of aborting the child, Frank tries to manipulate April into seeking psychiatric help for her troubled childhood. April, overwhelmed by the situation, suffers something of an identity crisis and sleeps with her neighbor Shep Campbell, while Frank resurrects his relationship with Maureen. April attempts to self-abort her child, and in doing so is rushed to the hospital and dies from blood loss. Frank, scarred by the ordeal and feeling deep guilt over the outcome, is left a hollow shell of a man. He and his children spent time living with their uncle, hence mirroring the youth of their mother.
