作者簡介
E. B. White, the author of such beloved classics as Charlotte's Web, Stuart Little, and The Trumpet of the Swan, was born in Mount Vernon, New York. He graduated from Cornell University in 1921 and, five or six years later, joined the staff of The New Yorker magazine, then in its infancy. He died on October 1, 1985, and was survived by his son and three grandchildren.
Mr. White's essays have appeared in Harper's magazine, and some of his other books are: One Man's Meat, The Second Tree from the Corner, Letters of E. B. White, Essays of E. B. White, and Poems and Sketches of E. B. White. He won countless awards, including the 1971 National Medal for Literature and the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award, which commended him for making a “substantial and lasting contribution to literature for children.”
During his lifetime, many young readers asked Mr. White if his stories were true. In a letter written to be sent to his fans, he answered, “No, they are imaginary tales . . . But real life is only one kind of life—there is also the life of the imagination.”
E·B·懷特,美國當代著名散文傢、評論傢,以散文名世,“其文風冷峻清麗,辛辣幽默,自成一格”。生於紐約濛特弗農,畢業於康奈爾大學。作為《紐約客》主要撰稿人的懷特一手奠定瞭影響深遠的 “《紐約客》文風”。懷特對這個世界上的一切都充滿關愛,他的道德與他的文章一樣山高水長。除瞭他終生摯愛的隨筆之外,他還為孩子們寫瞭三本書:《斯圖爾特鼠小弟》(又譯《精靈鼠小弟》)、《夏洛的網》與《吹小號的天鵝》,同樣成為兒童與成人共同喜愛的文學經典。
