The morning comes, the night decays, the watchmen leave their stations; The grave is burst, the spices shed, the linen wrapped up; The bones of death, the cov'ring clay, the sinews shrunk & dry'd Reviving shake, inspiring move, breathing, awakening, Spring like redeemed captives when their bonds & bars are burst.Let the slave grinding at the mill run out into the field, Let him look up into the heavens & laugh in the bright air; Let the inchained soul, shut up in darkness and in sighing, Whose face has never seen a smile in thirty weary years, Rise and look out; his chains are loose, his dungeon doors are open; And let his wife and children return from the oppressor's scourge.They look behind at every step & believe it is a dream, Singing: The Sun has left his blackness & has found a fresher morning, And the fair Moon rejoices in the clear & cloudless night; For Empire is no more, and now the Lion & Wolf shall cease.-from America: A Prophecy by William Blake O stars, isn't it from you that the lover's desire for the face of his beloved arises? Doesn't his secret insight into her pure features come from the pure constellations?-from The Third Elegy by Rainer Maria Rilke Fine vapors escape from whatever is doing the living.The night is cold and delicate and full of angels Pounding down the living. The factories are all lit up, The chime goes unheard.We are together at last, though far apart.-from The Ecclesiast by John Ashbery
Into this wild abyss, The womb of nature and perhaps her grave, Of neither sea, nor shore, nor air, nor fire, But all these in their pregnant causes mixed Confusedly, and which thus must ever fight, Unless the almighty maker them ordain His dark materials to create more worlds, Into this wild abyss the wary fiend Stood on the brink of hell and looked a while, Pondering his voyage...—John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book II The Golden Compass forms the first part of a story in three volumes. The first volume is set in a universe like ours, but different in many ways. The second volume is set partly in the universe we know. The third volume will move between the universes.
《黑暗物质三部曲》之二《魔法神刀》。宇宙由无数平行的世界组成、借助奇妙的魔法神刀的切割可以彼此穿行。生活在另一个牛津的少年威尔，遭遇着莫名追杀；在一只神秘的猫的指引下，他跨过一个秘密的窗口，来到另一个横行着吞噬成人精灵的妖怪的世界……出于对母亲深沉的爱，威尔决定去寻找失踪多年的探险父亲。殊不知这对父子的命运早已与关系宇宙生死的巨大阴谋密不可分了……亡命天涯的威尔遇到了继续在朝自己使命的莱拉，并偶然得到那把可以切开宇宙从而在不同世界穿梭的魔法神刀；其实，这并非偶然，许多世纪前，就有了关于他和莱拉的神秘预言：他们即是亚当与夏娃，必须联合女巫和天使，以及所有正义的力量，帮助阿斯里尔勋爵，才能对抗强大的宗教和政治势力，揭开尘埃的秘密，拯救宇宙；而伊甸园那条引诱他们的蛇，则是女科学家马隆博士……如同所有最伟大的故事一样，这部作品寓意深刻，几乎囊括了你所能想像到的一切惊险和刺激的情节；在当今的盎格鲁—撒克逊奇幻小说家队伍中，普尔曼无疑是最具创造力的创世者之一，是《魔戒》的作者J·R·R·托尔金的后来人与继承者。
Will tugged at his mother's hand and said, Come on, come on...But his mother hung back. She was still afraid. Will looked up and down the narrow street in the evening light, along the little terrace of houses, each behind its tiny garden and its box hedge, with the sun glaring off the windows of one side and leaving the other in shadow. There wasn't much time. People would be having their meal about now, and soon there would be other children around, to stare and comment and notice. It was dangerous to wait, but all he could do was persuade her, as usual.
《黑暗物质三部曲》之一《黄金罗盘》。这一个不凡世界，人的灵魂是一个以动物形式存在的精灵，且人与精灵密不可分，不然，生命将不复存在。13岁的莱拉，长在这世界的牛津大学，没有家庭之爱，不识富有、强大但已成敌的父母，更不知自己身负震撼世界的诅咒；她终日与玩伴及他们的精灵自由自在地嬉闹，长成了一个诡计多端、恣意妄为且谎话连篇的野女孩。然而，可怕的预言无法抗拒，莱拉注定要承担起救世主之责，扮演人类之母夏娃角：人人畏惧的尘埃出现了，饕餮游荡在城市各个角，玩伴接连莫名失踪，快乐时光彻底完结于密友罗杰的失去，巨大的阴谋正在酝酿之中……于是，在个惟她可懂、能预知未来的黄金罗盘——真理仪的帮助下，浑然不觉险恶的莱拉决定去寻找被邪恶科学家掠走的孩子们，从此开了拯救世界的艰难之旅；她朝着未知的北极而去；等待她的，有披甲熊、女巫、天使，悬崖厉鬼，更有能够终结生命的精灵切割机…而领引她步步踏入死亡之地的，竟是其父，自然科学家阿斯里尔勋爵，与其母，狂热的原教旨主义信徒库尔特夫人……如同所有伟大的故事一样，这部作品寓意深刻，几乎囊括了你所能想像到的一切惊险和刺激的情节；在当今的盎格鲁 — 撒克逊奇幻小说家队伍中，普尔无疑是最具造力的创世者之一，是《魔戒》的作者J·R·R·托尔金的后来人与继承者。
