商品简介 Born on the Orkney island of Wyre in 1887, Edwin Muir settled in various parts of Europe during the first half of the twentieth century - from Glasgow, to Austria and Czechoslovakia throughout to 1920s, 1930s and again after the war. Muir's poetry bears oblique witness to the most traumatic years and events of this century, and is haunted by the symbolic 'fable' which he longed to find beneath the surface 'story' of mere events, as he came to terms with his own nature amidst the terror and confusion of the European maelstrom. As Seamus Heaney has written: 'Muir's poetic strength revealed itself in being able to co-ordinate the nightmare of history with that place in himself where he had trembled with anticipation . . . His simultaneous at-homeness and abroadness is exemplary.'埃德温·缪尔 (Edwin Muir) 1887 年出生于奥克尼群岛的怀尔岛,20 世纪上半叶在欧洲各地定居,从格拉斯哥到奥地利和捷克斯洛伐克,一直到 1920 年代、1930 年代以及战后。缪尔的诗歌间接见证了本世纪最痛苦的岁月和事件,并被象征性的“寓言”所困扰,他渴望在单纯事件的表面“故事”之下找到这种寓言,因为他在其中接受了自己的本性。欧洲漩涡的恐怖和混乱正如谢默斯·希尼(Seamus Heaney)所写:“缪尔的诗意力量体现在能够将历史的噩梦与他内心因期待而颤抖的地方协调起来。” 。 。他同时在国内和国外的生活堪称典范。
