內容簡介
從1845年7月4日到1847年9月6日,梭羅獨自生活在瓦爾登湖邊,差不多正好兩年零兩個月。瓦爾登湖不僅為梭羅提供瞭一個棲身之所,也為他提供瞭一種獨特的精神氛圍。
1846年2月,梭羅按計劃前去康科德城講課。梭羅準備瞭一個“我自己的曆史”(The History of Myself)的課題。沒想到講座受到觀眾的熱烈歡迎。在這次講座的啓發下,梭羅將自己的講課提綱加以整理,又經過瞭很長一段時間的寫作,終於完成瞭Walden,or Life in Woods(《瓦爾登湖,又名林中生活散記》)這部傳世的名著。《瓦爾登湖》齣版於1854年,這是19世紀美國文學非小說著作中受讀者歡迎的書籍。目前,此書已齣現瞭兩百多個版本,並被譯成許多種文字。
