内容简介
从1845年7月4日到1847年9月6日,梭罗独自生活在瓦尔登湖边,差不多正好两年零两个月。瓦尔登湖不仅为梭罗提供了一个栖身之所,也为他提供了一种独特的精神氛围。
1846年2月,梭罗按计划前去康科德城讲课。梭罗准备了一个“我自己的历史”(The History of Myself)的课题。没想到讲座受到观众的热烈欢迎。在这次讲座的启发下,梭罗将自己的讲课提纲加以整理,又经过了很长一段时间的写作,终于完成了Walden,or Life in Woods(《瓦尔登湖,又名林中生活散记》)这部传世的名著。《瓦尔登湖》出版于1854年,这是19世纪美国文学非小说著作中受读者欢迎的书籍。目前,此书已出现了两百多个版本,并被译成许多种文字。
