赵元任全集（第12卷）
(british) Louis Gallar Et Al.
The twelfth volume of "The Complete Works of Zhao Yuanren" mainly compiles three literary translations of Zhao Yuanren: "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Walking into the Mirror" by the famous British writer Lewis Carroll, and the play "The Last Five Minutes" by the British writer A. A. Milne. "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Into the Mirror" are two world-famous children's literature works. It tells the story of Alice, a little British girl, who sleepwalks in the rabbit hole and the mirror world. The original author is Louis Gallar (1832-1891) from England, who was a pastor and arithmetic teacher by profession. These two works were originally fairy tales he compiled to tell the neighborhood children. However, since their publication in 1867, they have been loved by everyone from the Queen of England to the common people. After it spread to the United States, it caused great repercussions and spawned many adaptations. For young readers, the work is full of innocent whims, while for adult readers, there are poignant and profound social criticisms everywhere. The original text is concise, Mr. Zhao Yuanren's translation is wonderful, and his use of spoken Chinese and northern and southern dialects is amazing. "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" was first published by the Commercial Press in 1922. "Walking into the Mirror" was originally translated in 1931. After the proof copy was printed in the Shanghai Commercial Press, it was unfortunately burned by the Japanese invaders. It was then re-translated many times by Mr. Zhao. In 1968, it was included as a textbook in "Readings in Chinese" and published in the United States. In 1988, with the consent of the translator during his lifetime, the Commercial Press published a combined version of the two works in English-Chinese format, and in 2002 they published separate volumes. This volume contains the 2002 single volume. Wonderful, the use of spoken Chinese and northern and southern dialects is amazing. "The Last Five Minutes" is a drama script written by Zhao Yuanren in Beijing spoken English based on the play The Camberley Triangle by British writer A. A. Milne. Some changes were made to the plot and it was renamed "The Last Five Minutes". He directed it himself, invited several Tsinghua students to perform, and performed it publicly in the old auditorium of Tsinghua University. He then wrote the script into a Chinese and Mandarin Romanized version, wrote the preface himself, and attached an academic paper "A Study of Beijing Intonation", which was published by Zhonghua Book Company in 1929. At that time, this book was not only a Mandarin (spoken) script for the drama, but also a reading material to promote Mandarin romaji. The academic paper on Beijing intonation attached at the back of the book was also the result of his language research. This volume contains the 1929 edition of Zhonghua Book Company.
