基督山伯爵

The Count of Monte Cristo
by Alexandre Dumas
Narrated by Richard Matthews




The story takes place in France, Italy, and islands in the Mediterranean during the historical events of 1815? (from just before the Hundred Days through the reign of Louis-Philippe of France). It is primarily concerned with themes of justice, vengeance, mercy and forgiveness, and is told in the style of an adventure story.

Dumas got the idea for The Count of Monte Cristo from a true story, which he found in a memoir written by a man named Jacques Peuchet. Peuchet related the story of a shoemaker named Pierre Picaud, who was living in Paris in 1807. Picaud was engaged to marry a rich woman, but four jealous friends falsely accused him of being a spy for England. He was imprisoned for seven years. During his imprisonment a dying fellow prisoner bequeathed him a treasure hidden in Milan. When Picaud was released in 1814, he took possession of the treasure, returned under another name to Paris and spent ten years plotting his successful revenge against his former friends.


作者是法國作家大仲馬(1802-1870),

《基督山伯爵》是一本極其優(yōu)秀的小說，其主人公非常燦爛而優(yōu)雅，其經(jīng)歷讓人難忘。其中最著名的句子出現(xiàn)在小說的最后一章：世界上并無所謂的快樂 也無所謂的痛苦 唯有兩種處境的比較罷了 唯有經(jīng)歷過最大厄運(yùn)磨難的人 才能真正感受到幸福的所在 盡情的享受生命的快樂吧 永遠(yuǎn)記住 在上帝揭開人類未來的圖景前 人類的智慧就包含在兩個(gè)詞中：等待和希望.
