内容概要
《苏东坡传》讲述了苏东坡是一个无可救药的乐天派、一个伟大的人道主义者、一个百姓的朋友、一个大文豪、大书法家、创新的画家、造酒试验家、一个工程师、一个憎恨清教徒主义的人、一位瑜伽修行者佛教徒、巨儒政治家、一个皇帝的秘书、酒仙、厚道的法官、一位在政治上专唱反调的人、一个月夜徘徊者、一个诗人、一个小丑。但是这还不足以道出苏东坡的全部……苏东坡比中国其他的诗人更具有多面性天才的丰富感、变化感和幽默感,智能优异,心灵却像天真的小孩——这种混合等于耶稣所谓蛇的智慧加上鸽子的温文。

章节摘录
As one Chinese name per person is more than enough for the Westernreader to follow, I shall always call the father Su Sbiin, the elder son Su Tungpo,and the younger son Su Tseyu, following the prevailing Chinese practice. Theconfusion arising from so many names adopted by one scholar takes up a greatdeal of the time of a student doing research in Chinese history. In Su Tungpo'stime at least eight persons had the same name, Mengteh, which meant that theperson's mother, before she conceived, had dreamed that she had a bay.When Tungpo was sixteen, there was an episode which put a heavy strainon the relationship between the father's and the mother's family, and whichreveals something of the father's character. As often happens in Chinesefamilies, the father has married Su Tungpo's elder sister to a first cousin in themother's family. We cannot know details at this late date, but we know that theyoung bride was unhappy in the Cheng family. Perhaps she was persecuted byher husband's relations. Anyway, she soon died and under circumstances thatstirred up Su Shiin's indignation. It seems the girl's father-in-law was a thoroughscoundrel. Su Shiin wrote a poem couched in bitter words and blaming himselffor his daughter's death. He then did an unusual thing. He compiled a familygenealogy, had it inscribed in stone, and erected a pavilion over it. To celebratethe occasion, he gathered the entire Su clan, before whom he intended toread a public denunciation of his wife's family. After the members of the clanhad poured wine offerings to the dead ancestors, Su said to the clansmen thata "certain" person in the village, meaning his wife's brother, represented apowerful family; that he had brought moral chaos into the village; that he haddriven out the orphan child of his own brother and monopolized the familyproperty; that he had placed his concubine above his wife and indulged inlicentious pleasures.
