伊索的人生寓言【兩度榮獲凱迪克大獎畫家夢幻新作】(十本好讀): : : 1. 2. 10 2020 (Aesop Prize and Accolades) Ian Lendler Pamela Zagarenski Podcast

作者: 伊恩.倫德勒  |  繪者: 潘蜜拉.札格倫斯基  |  譯者: 海狗房東


榮獲香港教育城主辦的「第二十一屆十本好讀」教師推薦好讀

龜兔賽跑、狼來了、北風與太陽……
你以為你聽的是故事,其實伊索說的是人生!

兩度榮獲凱迪克大獎的世界級畫家精采演繹,
以伊索的人生為經,寓言故事為緯,
交織成生而為奴的寓言家伊索,
以故事的力量反轉命運的生命之旅──

  兩千五百年來,《伊索寓言》的故事在各地開枝散葉,無數世代聽故事的人,從中獲得歡笑與智慧。然而,最具啟發性的未必是這些珠玉般睿智的寓言,反而是伊索自身的故事⋯⋯

  從前從前,在古希臘有一個奴隸叫做「伊索」。他打從出生就是奴隸,無法像自由人一樣無所顧忌的說話,但是他運用說故事的天賦,讓自己脫離奴役、獲得自由,並將誠實、堅毅、善良等美德,透過故事傳遞給後世。

  本書透過優美的圖像,轉化廣為人知的寓言故事,並與伊索傳奇的人生結合,令人深深感受到故事蘊含的力量,足以改變一個人看似難以反轉的命運。

本書特色

  1.名家華麗重現經典,超越「看圖說故事」的框架
  知名插畫家潘蜜拉.札格倫斯基,運用壓克力顏料、水彩等多種混合媒材,重新以圖像語言進行伊索故事的再創作,翻玩讀者耳熟能詳的寓言元素,營造不同遠近層次的張力和空間感,幀幀都是藝術珍藏。

  到了故事尾聲,連本是敘述功能的文字也跟著伊索飛舞,成為視覺饗宴的一大亮點。本書打破「看圖說故事」的框架,不只以夢幻圖像重新詮釋故事,更創造出故事之外的圖像趣味。

  2.從嶄新角度,遇見「寓言大師」伊索
  本書由伊索的誕生開始,描述出身奴隸的他,如何在不平等的遭遇下,學習並發展「說故事」的才能,最終甚至用他精采的故事,為自己爭取到了寶貴的自由。

  書中述說伊索的人生故事,並巧妙的將逾10則經典寓言融貫其中,帶領讀者進入伊索生活的背景,從更貼近伊索的角度,體會那些淺短的寓言蘊藏的真正涵義,深刻感觸久久難忘──伊索充滿考驗的一生,造就了他充滿智慧的寓言。

得獎紀錄

  ★榮獲2020年度美國民俗學會伊索獎 (Aesop Prize and Accolades)
  「這本書將大眾耳熟能詳的寓言故事,與伊索的人生故事結合──身為奴隸的伊索,運用寓言在艱困的環境裡生存了下來,同時也向掌權者傳遞智慧──明白這層背景,加深了我們對寓言的認識:它們不只是虛構的故事,更擁有現實的意義。」

Off the couch and on the road
Format: Kindle
Even those who are happy in their circumstance may find themselves discontented with the sameness of their days. An adventure will relieve this, and perhaps we can make the adventure happen, and yet the sameness of our days is the very thing that holds us back. But then we read how someone actually did it, had a true adventure to match the best of our daydreams, and we think, I could do that, too! Beth Jusino’s Camino memoir is for everyone who has ever considered doing something extraordinary, something beyond everyday life. She freely admits her life was sedentary — as couch-bound as you or I — but then the notion of the Camino grew from daydream to impulse, and then became irresistible, and she was fortunate to have a husband who gladly came along. It’s a book of astonishing quality, the words well-chosen, each page proof of her craft. She engages us not only with her physical ordeal (which is considerable, until she finds better shoes along the way), but also with her wonderment at the things she sees, the people she meets on the way, and we are compelled along, turning each page to see what happens next. Her story is not only rich in anecdote but also in the wealth of reflection on what she sees and hears along the way. Some particular scenes that stay fixed in memory are her encounters with a flock of sheep she meets at just the point when she needs them — a Camino miracle! — and also her descriptions of the great storks in their huge nests on all the church steeples and other high points along the way. Again and again I marked passages in the text so that I may come back and enjoy them once more. It’s also a love story, and the measure of this is the way we begin to anticipate her moments of particular challenge when her husband will do whatever needs doing or say whatever she needs to hear. It’s his story as well as hers, and she knows this and sets it down, and in so doing, tells us that perhaps she could not have finished her journey without him. Those who have walked any part of the road to Santiago will relive moments in familiar places and perhaps see what they missed the first time along the way and gain a new insight, a fresh view of what they overlooked before. And they may think, yes, I’ll go again! But if you’ve never had an adventure and Santiago is no more than the stuff of your daydreams, if you have so far only imagined such an undertaking, if the sameness of your days holds you back, then read this book. Then go out and do it. But make sure you buy the right shoes.

Walking from La Puy to Finisterre...a well written memoir
Format: Paperback
The key to writing a Camino book--at least from this reader's perspective--it to have a well-written, well-edited, and unique personal account of the adventure. I've read many Camino books that lack these three elements. WTTEOTW has all three elements and is a great addition to anyone's Camino library. The book is paced nicely and makes for an easy read. I was amused that the author had spent considerable time preparing for this trip yet seemed not to have absorbed some important information prior to the trip--e.g. appropriate footwear, the scramble for nightly accommodations, the frustrations that commonly occur while traveling in unfamiliar cultures. Her adjustments along the way provide humor and insight into preparing for things we've not yet experienced in our own lives.

really enjoyable
Format: Kindle
I'm thinking of doing the French route myself (starting in Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port) and have been inhaling other people's stories of the route, whether blog or book form. The writing is engaging, and both funny and touching in places. I liked that the author is willing to note her own faults as much of those of others', but noted the strengths of herself and everyone around her as well. And her love for her husband jumped off the page, which I really appreciated! About halfway through the author's time in Spain I found myself on google maps--a surprising portion of the Camino is available on street view!--and yeah, now I *really* want to go. I'm thinking spring of 2023. Fingers crossed. EDIT: I read the book and wrote this review in late fall of 2021. It is currently March of 2023. I'm flying to France on April 17th, to start in St. Jean Pied de Port. :D EDIT, number two: The Camino was awesome, and I will probably do it again in a few years, and it was fun to reread this book after doing the Camino and be able to remember so many of the places she talks about. <3

Well written informative engaging and evocative
Format: Kindle
I've walked to Santiago twice, in 2016 at 65 from St. Jean and in 2019 from Le Puy and bought the book during the pandemic as I waxed nostalgic for the weeks on the road under load with beer bread and bed waiting each afternoon. Beth did a marvelous job of capturing her Camino and much of mine. I can see some of the sights again, the sunrises, the amazing stonework, the clothes drying in the afternoons, the passers by, the cultivated for centuries and still natural landscapes. I almost again feel the foot pain, the rain , the sun, the climbs, the descents, the hot cold on off showers, and the hugs. She helped me again hear the news from Radio Camino, the snoring in the gites and albergues, songs on the road, and the slightly tipsy and slightly loud cafe conversations. I could smell the the morning coffee bowl, the cheeses, the pastries, the animal dropping. And she helped me remember speedy young pilgrims, poor and semi-prosperous middle age Spaniards, paths that were old when followed by Charlemagne, D'Artagnan, and Roman legionnaires, and friends, companions and acquaintancesof all ages and duration. Very well done. Thank you Beth. Buen Camino...

Entertaining and informative
Format: Kindle
Walking the Camino has been on my bucket list for about 10 years and enjoy reading these types of books. Perhaps because of Justino's background, this is by far the most interesting and entertaining Camino story I've read. For me, it is just the right mix of her daily hiking experience along with a little historical background for context. Her subtle, sometimes self-degrading, humor is a bonus. At the end of the book she provided her daily destinations and miles walked along with a packing list which is something I wish more authors would provide. I'm in my 60's now and beginning to doubt if I will ever make the walk but after reading this book I'm still hoping.
