AEMILIUS PAULUS229-160 B.C.by Plutarchtranslated by John DrydenALMOST all agree that the Aemilii were one of the ancient andpatrician houses in Rome; and those authors who affirm that KingNuma was pupil to Pythagoras tell us that the first who gave name tohis posterity was Mamercus, the son of Pythagoras, who, for hisgrace and address in speaking, was called Aemilius. Most of thisrace that have risen through their merit to reputation also enjoyedgood fortune: and even the misfortune to Lucius Paulus at the battleof Cannae gave testimony to his wisdom and valour. For not beingable to persuade his colleague not to hazard the battle, he, though...
"破空斩!"手中闪烁着白光的钢刀飞快地舞成一圈圈有如涟漪的刀圈,以雷霆万钧之势迎头劈向面前桀桀怪笑的魔妖,轰声隆隆地撕裂了前方的大地。在强大的刀威之下,地面上的碎石与沙粒纷纷浮飞而起,仿佛要一刀斩断空间的杀气,立即让魔妖鲜血四迸,惨叫一声,重重倒地。甲士仰面朝天,冷冷长笑*^÷^*,一跃而上坐骑……"当!"屏幕左下角弹出一行字:"老大,我又挂了(╯︿╰)"笨!透过网吧中的昏暗光线,孙衡向右边斜睨,而他的兄弟张凡正隔了三个座位向他苦笑。哗!好冷好酷的眼神哦张凡看着孙衡冷酷的眼神羡慕加钦佩*@ _@ *真不愧是老大。当初的决定果然是英明的*^ο^*!要不是自己慧眼识英先下手为强,现在哪能轮到自己当老大的贴心死忠换帖兄弟啊!(虽然老大从没正式承认过但那肯定是因为他害羞别看他高高壮壮的)……"走了啦!"孙衡一记铁砂掌"啪"地一声无情地拍掉了张凡兀自陶醉在幻想中的傻笑。...
The Pupilby Henry JamesCHAPTER IThe poor young man hesitated and procrastinated: it cost him suchan effort to broach the subject of terms, to speak of money to aperson who spoke only of feelings and, as it were, of thearistocracy. Yet he was unwilling to take leave, treating hisengagement as settled, without some more conventional glance inthat direction than he could find an opening for in the manner ofthe large affable lady who sat there drawing a pair of soiled gantsde Suede through a fat jewelled hand and, at once pressing andgliding, repeated over and over everything but the thing he wouldhave liked to hear. He would have liked to hear the figure of hissalary; but just as he was nervously about to sound that note the...

AN INQUIRY INTO THE NATURE AND CAUSES OF THE WEALTH OF NATIONSby Adam Smith1776BOOK FOUROF SYSTEMS OF POLITICAL ECONOMYINTRODUCTIONPOLITICAL economy, considered as a branch of the science of astatesman or legislator, proposes two distinct objects: first, toprovide a plentiful revenue or subsistence for the people, ormore properly to enable them to provide such a revenue orsubsistence for themselves; and secondly, to supply the state orcommonwealth with a revenue sufficient for the public services.It proposes to enrich both the people and the sovereign.The different progress of opulence in different ages andnations has given occasion to two different systems of political...

The Cask of Amontilladoby Edgar Allen PoeThe thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I bestcould, but when he ventured upon insult, I vowed revenge. You, whoso well know the nature of my soul, will not suppose, however, thatI gave utterance to a threat. At length I would be avenged;this was a point definitely settledbut the very definitivenesswith which it was resolved, precluded the idea of risk. I must notonly punish, but punish with impunity. A wrong is unredressed whenretribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally unredressedwhen the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who hasdone the wrong.It must be understood that neither by word nor deed had Igiven Fortunato cause to doubt my good will. I continued, as was...
《异界修道》作者:秋风思林第一集:异界炮灰第1章:炮灰营一“杀!”随着竭力的一喝,邵亦面无表情的把手中的刀插进了对面的士兵,顿时,刀出之处,穿肠破肚,那士兵的眼珠盯的老大,已经死的不能再死。转头又是一刀劈出,伴随刀光飞起的又是一条血淋淋的手臂。邵亦已经杀红了眼。战场上,同样激烈的撕杀不断的上演,不是杀人,就是被杀,生物的优胜劣汰在这里表现的淋漓尽致。不知道杀了多久,当战鼓鸣起时,战场的士兵明显松了口气,再也不顾前方就是自己敌人,纷纷争先恐后的退回自己的阵营,一场战斗,就此结束。战后记功营。“邵亦,此次杀死高级狼牙将一人,普通兽人十人,低级匹格五十三人,合计杀死高级将领三人,普通兽人一百八十七人,低级匹格五百六十八人……”念完之后,报功员略带惊讶的看着邵亦,眼中包含着羡慕,或是嫉妒的神色,继续说道:“你好像进来炮灰营才一年的时间,居然那么快就完成了任务?你现在可以选...
The Monster Menby Edgar Rice Burroughs1THE RIFTAs he dropped the last grisly fragment of the dismembered and mutilated body into the small vat of nitric acid that was to devour every trace of the horrid evidence which might easily send him to the gallows, the man sank weakly into a chair and throwing his body forward upon his great, teak desk buried his face in his arms, breaking into dry, moaning sobs.Beads of perspiration followed the seams of his high, wrinkled forehead, replacing the tears which might have lessened the pressure upon his overwrought nerves. His slender frame shook, as with ague, and at times was racked by a convulsive shudder. A sudden step upon the stairway leading to his workshop brought him trembling and wide eyed to his feet, staring fea...

《最后的学徒1 麦凯琳复仇》作者:[英] 约瑟夫·德拉尼第一章第七个儿子当驱魔人史布克到我家的时候,天色已经渐渐黯淡下来。那一天对我来说简直是度日如年,当时我们正准备吃晚饭。“这就是你们家老七?”史布克一边问父亲,一边低头打量着我,然后略带怀疑地摇了摇头,似乎对我不是很满意。父亲点了点头。“你在家也是排行老七?”父亲又点点头,开始不耐烦地跺起脚来,溅了不少泥巴和肥料在我裤子上。雨水不断地从父亲的帽沿上滴下来。这个季节整天都是阴雨绵绵的。虽然树上已经冒出了新叶,但感觉春天的脚步还很遥远。我的父亲是一个农场主,祖父也是个农场主。经营农场的第一要务就是维持农场的完整性,而不能把农场分成几份交给孩子们;否则,农场将随着子孙的繁衍变得越来越小,到最后农场就可能不复存在了。所以,父亲通常是把他的农场留给他的长子来经营,然后再设法为其他的儿子找其他的工作,如果可能的话,他尽力把儿子...

●名家荐语一个艺术家能够给人提供什么呢?他不是教师因而不能给人什么教导。他不是领袖所以未必能给人指引一条光明或安全的道路。他其实也不是灵魂工程师做不来总为别人以至自己脱胎换骨的事。他们是以正规角度看这世界而看腻了的人,并且天真地以为别人可能也不大耐烦,所以为公为私就去找些新鲜的角度看这世界。我想,李清明的文字也在寻找这样的角度。——著名作家 史铁生《微雨独行》 序《微雨独行》 内容简介●内容简介这是一个平凡人写下的篇章,他将唤起我们内心的那一份感动。他内心所体验到的现实,是文字的现实,也是心灵的现实。这是他的人生实践和人生行动的记录。他的思想心得是来自行动中的体悟,有一种真实感人的力量。他说:“你要生活得随意些,你就只能活得平凡些;你要活得辉煌些,你就只能活得痛苦和复杂些;你要活得长久些,你就只能活得简单些。”...
●自序莫言我的回答是:这段话是斯大林在我的梦中、用烟斗指点着我的额头、语重心长地单独对我说的,还没来得及往他的全集里收,因此您查不到这是狡辩,也是抵赖。但我相信:斯大林是能够说出这些话的,他没说是他还没来得及说。进入二十世纪八十年代以来,文学终于渐渐地摆脱了沉重的政治枷锁的束缚,赢得了自己的相对独立的地位。但也许是基于对沉重的历史的恐惧和反感,当时的年轻作家,大都不屑于近距离地反映现实生活,而是把笔触伸向遥远的过去,尽量地淡化作品的时代背景。大家基本上都感到纤细的脖颈难以承受"人类灵魂工程师"的桂冠,瘦弱的肩膀难以担当"人民群众代言人"的重担。创作是个性化的劳动,是作家内心痛苦的宣泄,这样的认识,一时几乎成为大家的共识。如果谁还妄图用作家的身份干预政治、幻想着用文学作品疗治社会弊病,大概会成为被嘲笑的对象。但就在这样的情况下,我还是写了这部为农民鸣不平的急就章。...
楔子宇皇星之楔子首部曲之楔子楔子 宇皇星之楔子(更新时间:2003-10-13 10:00:00 本章字数:212) 谜一样的宿命,谜一样的使命,谜一样的少年。 宿命,一个冷漠的名词,似乎早早就规定了他必须走的人生轨道。 使命,一个热情的名词,何尝又不是一个事先安排好的灵魂禁锢。 少年,一个平凡的天才,没有超能力的辅助,也没有绝世武的防身;没有超卓的出身,更无高贵的地位…… 然而,他敢说:无所谓宿命,亦无所谓使命,我就是我! 宇皇与星帅的结合,宇皇星的传奇…… 楔子 首部曲之楔子(更新时间:2004-4-18 4:50:00 本章字数:417) 黑白相间的足球,编织的是人类美丽绚烂的梦想和希望;层层环绕的看台,涌动的是万千球迷的狂热和企盼;绿草如茵的球场,流淌的则是无数足坛英豪的汗水和泪水;...
译本序但到了五十年代,在香港却有过一本稍稍修订了它的译文的,署名吴明实(无名氏)的盗印本,还一再再版,再版达六版之多。他的一生是如此之简单而馥郁,又如此之孤独而芬芳。也可以说,他的一生十分不简单,也毫不孤独。他的读者将会发现,他的精神生活十分丰富,而且是精美绝伦,世上罕见,和他交往的人不多,而神交的人可就多得多了。他对自己的出生地,即马省的康城,深感自豪。康城是爆发了美国独立战争的首义之城。他说过,永远使他惊喜的是他“出生于全世界最可尊敬的地点”之一,而且“时间也正好合适”,适逢美国知识界应运而生的、最活跃的年代。在美洲大陆上,最早的欧洲移民曾居住的“新英格兰”六州,正是美国文化的发祥之地。而正是在马省的康城,点燃起来了美国精神生活的辉耀火炬。小小的康城,风光如画。一下子,那里出现了四位大作家:爱默生,霍桑,阿尔考特, 和他,梭罗。1834年,爱默生定居于康城,曾到哈...
