续欢喜冤家(无注释版)
西湖渔隐主人 试读
集中描写了各种曲折奇异的婚姻悲喜剧,生动展示了明代社会形形色色的人情世态既有对青年男女追求爱情自由所表示的同情;有也有对禁欲主义虚伪性的大胆揭露;还有对女性独立人格及聪明才智的充分肯定。在男女情爱描写过程中小说流露出鲜明的文人和市民趣味与时代审美特征,不免落入俗套。曾在清代被多次禁毁。

飞花艳想(无注释版)
樵云山人 试读
今传中所载为梅,何花不艳,何想不飞?或阅荪传者,如逮名花,同列艳媚,虽桃秾李白,而清香胜之。为生奇想,天际飞来,虽水穷山尽,而幻景出之,如逢才子佳人,叹有相对。虽才为司马,慧似文君,而风流喜雅却又过之。此《飞花艳想》之所由作也。虽然花飞矣,想艳矣,亦花艳矣,想飞矣,偏于忠孝节义之淡,而心及饮食男女之事,是何爱拾日用山海珍羞,而废家常茶饭也,是何爱拾只阅稗官野史,而废四书五经也。其可乎!若荪传者,权必胸经,邪必悔正。华飞而气自存,想艳而文自正。令人读之犹见河洲窈窕之遗风。则是书一出,谓之阅稗官野史也可,即谓之读四书五经也亦可。

云溪友议(无注释版)
范攄 试读
《朝野佥载·云溪友议》由唐·张鷟、范摅撰,恒鹤、阳羡生校点。其中《朝野佥载》记述唐代前期朝野遗事佚闻,尤以武后一朝事迹为多。举凡政治黑暗、吏治腐败、酷吏横暴、民生疾苦等均有反映,暴露了“贿货纵横,赃污狼藉”的现实世相。另有治病医例、星相占卜、神灵怪异、文坛掌故等资料及琐闻碎语,皆有可观。至于谐噱荒怪纤悉胪载而失之于琐杂,则为后世垢病,洪迈《容斋续笔》卷十二就曾说:“《佥载》记事,皆琐尾擿裂,且多媒语。”当然,以唐人记唐事,耳目所接,毕竟较近事实,故其所录亦为《资治通鉴》等史书所引用。 《云溪友议》,共六十五条,大抵记述唐开元以后文坛的逸事琐闻、诗歌本事,性质颇类孟棨所著《本事诗》。此书尤其引起后人注目的是这样几点:一是作者的生活年代与所记之事时间较为切近,“耳目所接,终较后人为近”(《四库全书总目》卷一四o);二是书中较集中地提供了唐代白话诗的资料;三是其中有不少资料被后人改编为戏剧或小说,成为后世其他艺术形式的素材。它的缺点是,所载多有不实之处。关于这一点,《四库全书总目》亦曾指出,并谓此书立论亦多有不当之处,读者可参看。 《朝野佥载·云溪友议》适合古典文学爱好者阅读。

In Search of the Castaways; or the Children of Captain Grant
Jules Verne 试读
The contents of a shark's stomach contain a bottle that holds partially deteriorated notes written in three different languages. Together they give clues to the location of Captain Harry Grant, whose ship the Britannia was lost at sea. While the latitude of Grant is known from the notes, the longitude is a mystery. Lord Glenarvan makes it his quest to find Grant; together with his wife, Harry Grant's two children, and the crew of his yacht the Duncan, they set off for South America. On their journey the searchers encounter storms, earthquakes, deserts, floods, pirates, cannibals, wolves, and numerous other dangers as they trace the 37th parallel across South America, then across Australia, and finally across New Zealand.

Little Men
Louisa May Alcott 试读
"Little Men" (1871) continues Louisa May Alcott's story of the March family. It picks up from "Little Women" and "Good Wives" to follow tomboy Jo into her married life. Jo and her husband, Prof. Bhaer, have opened a school for boys. Jo takes charge, but she retains a "merry sort of face," and the boys call her jolly. The school takes in troubled cases including homeless "little chap," Nat, and rowdy run-away Dan. Alcott pictures the kind of boyhood that the recent bestseller, "The Dangerous Book for Boys," hopes to rekindle. Alcott's boys climb trees and sneak off to light their first (choke ) cigars, but each lad has the makings of a good man -- qualities that Jo intends to bring out. The language might sound as quaint as "thunder turtles " and "hoydens" (grrrls), but the drama is the same now as always. Jo's concern for her boys is every teacher's -- every right parent's -- hope for every child. The story concludes with "Jo's Boys: And How They Turned Out."

The Soul of Man under Socialism
王尔德 试读
The chief advantage that would result from the establishment of Socialism is, undoubtedly, the fact that Socialism would relieve us from that sordid necessity of living for others which, in the present condition of things, presses so hardly upon almost everybody. In fact, scarcely anyone at all escapes. Now and then, in the course of the century, a great man of science, like Darwin a great poet, like Keats a fine critical spirit, like M. Renan a supreme artist, like Flaubert, has been able to isolate himself, to keep himself out of reach of the clamorous claims of others, to stand 'under the shelter of the wall, ' as Plato puts it, and so to realise the perfection of what was in him, to his own incomparable gain, and to the incomparable and lasting gain of the whole world.

A Boys Ride
Gulielma Zollinger 试读
Purchase one of 1st World Library's Classic Books and help support our free internet library of downloadable eBooks. Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - It was the last of May in the north of England, in the year 1209. A very different England from what any boy of to-day has seen. A chilly east wind was blowing. The trees of the vast forests were all in leaf but the ash trees, and they were unfolding their buds. And along a bridle-path a few miles southwest of York a lad of fourteen was riding, while behind him followed a handsome deerhound. A boy of fourteen, at that age of the world, was an older and more important personage than he is to-day. If he were well-born he had, generally, by this time, served his time as a page and was become an esquire in the train of some noble lord. That this lad had not done so was because his uncle, a prior in whose charge he had been reared since the early death of his parents, had designed him for a priest. Priest, however, he had declined to be, and his uncle had now permitted him to go forth unattended to attach himself as page to some lord, if he could.

Camp and Trail A Story of the Maine Woods
Isabel Hornibrook 试读
Now, Neal Farrar, you've got to be as still as the night itself, remember. If you bounce, or turn, or draw a long breath, you won't have a rag of reputation as a deer-hunter to take back to England. Sneeze once, and we're done for. That means more diet of flapjacks and pork, instead of venison steaks. And I guess your city appetite won't rally to pork much longer, even in the wilds. Neal Farrar sighed as if there was something in that. "But, you know, it's just when an unlucky fellow would give his life not to sneeze that he's sure to bring out a thumping big one," he said plaintively.

Under Fire:the story of a squad
Gustave Flaubert 试读
MONT BLANC, the Dent du Midi, and the Aiguille Verte look across at the bloodless faces that show above the blankets along the gallery of the sanatorium. This roofed-in gallery of rustic wood-work on the first floor of the palatial hospital is isolated in Space and overlooks the world. The blankets of fine wool—red, green, brown, or white—from which those wasted cheeks and shining eyes protrude are quite still. No sound comes from the long couches except when some one coughs, or that of the pages of a book turned over at long and regular intervals, or the undertone of question and quiet answer between neighbors, or now and again the crescendo disturbance of a daring crow, escaped to the balcony from those flocks that seem threaded across the immense transparency like chaplets of black pearls.
