David Herbert Lawrence (11 September 1885 – 2 March 1930) was an English novelist, poet, playwright, essayist, literary critic and painter who published as D. H. Lawrence. His collected works represent an extended reflection upon the dehumanising effects of modernity and industrialisation. In them, Lawrence confronts issues relating to emotional health and vitality, spontaneity, and instinct.

Lawrence's opinions earned him many enemies and he endured official persecution, censorship, and misrepresentation of his creative work throughout the second half of his life, much of which he spent in a voluntary exile which he called his "savage pilgrimage."^[3] At the time of his death, his public reputation was that of a pornographer who had wasted his considerable talents. E. M. Forster, in an obituary notice, challenged this widely held view, describing him as, "The greatest imaginative novelist of our generation."^[4] Later, the influential Cambridge critic F. R. Leavis championed both his artistic integrity and his moral seriousness, placing much of Lawrence's fiction within thecanonical "great tradition" of the English novel. Lawrence is now valued by many as a visionary thinker and significant representative of modernism in English literature.

Araby (short story)

"Araby" is a short story by James Joyce published in his 1914 collection Dubliners.

Araby means a splendid bazzar 

James Augusta Aloysius Joyce (2 February 1882 – 13 January 1941) was an Irishnovelist and poet, considered to be one of the most influential writers in the modernistavant-garde of the early 20th century. Joyce is best known for Ulysses (1922), a landmark work in which the episodes of Homer'sOdyssey are paralleled in an array of contrasting literary styles, perhaps most prominent among these thestream of consciousness technique he perfected. Other major works are the short-story collectionDubliners (1914), and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916) and Finnegans Wake (1939). His complete oeuvre also includes three books of poetry, a play, occasional journalism, and his published letters.

《奧瑞斯特斯三部曲》: Agamemnon《阿格曼儂》, The Libation Bearers《祭奠者》, The Eumenides《佑護神》

第三部《佑護神》(The Eumenides)中，最後奧瑞斯特(Orestes)殺母罪行的解除，但是為了處理對他的控告的智慧女神雅典娜(Athena)建立了法庭陪審團制度。對復仇女神(Furies)控告他殺母的滔天大罪，雅典娜帶領了由十二個公民組成的陪審團來審判。在智慧女神雅典娜的主持之下，建立了公立的法庭和陪審制度，私人間的仇恨從此由法院審判，不能繼續自行了斷。復仇女神本來不服，但在智慧女神耐心的勸導與寬厚的讓步下，使這些原來專為死者伸冤復仇的女神，終於改變成仁慈的佑護之神（本來該劇名Eumenides的原意就是Kind Spirits），他們可以協助維持家庭和國家的秩序和正義。同時雅典娜女神的看法和決定也可看出作者艾斯奇勒斯的愛國情操。由復仇之神轉變成佑獲之神，也象徵著一切都可以以公平、公正的審判來代替「以牙還牙」和私人長期血拼的傳統。因此開啟了一個嶄新的文明的時代。
