Der Talisman Sir Walter Scott - Noch hatte Syriens sengende Sonne nicht ihren höchsten Punkt am Horizont erreicht, als ein Ritter des Roten Kreuzes, der seine ferne Heimat im Norden verlassen und sich dem Kreuzfahrerheere in Palästina angeschlossen hatte, langsam über die Sandsteppen hin ritt, die in der Nachbarschaft des Toten Meeres oder, wie es auch heißt, des Asphaltsees liegen, worein sich die Gewässer des Jordans ergießen, ohne wieder Abfluss zu finden. Der kriegerische Pilgersmann hatte sich während der Frühstunden des Tages zwischen Schroffen und Schluchten mühsam seinen Weg gebahnt, und als er diese gefahrvollen Felsenpässe endlich hinter sich gebracht hatte, war er hinausgetreten auf jene große, weite Ebene, wo in alter Zeit die verfluchten Städte die unmittelbare und schreckliche Rache des Allmächtigen herausgefordert hatten. ..
作者简介
Sir Walter Alva Scott was born on August 15, 1771 in Edinburgh, Scotland. Scott created and popularized historical novels in a series called the Waverley Novels. In his novels Scott arranged the plots and characters so the reader enters into the lives of both great and ordinary people caught up in violent, dramatic changes in history.Scott's work shows the influence of the 18th century enlightenment. He believed every human was basically decent regardless of class, religion, politics, or ancestry. Tolerance is a major theme in his historical works. The Waverley Novels express his belief in the need for social progress that does not reject the traditions of the past. He was the first novelist to portray peasant characters sympathetically and realistically, and was equally just to merchants, soldiers, and even kings.Central themes of many of Scott's novels are about conflicts between opposing cultures. Ivanhoe (1819) is about war between Normans and Saxons. The Talisman (1825) is about conflict between Christians and Muslims. His novels about Scottish history deal with clashes between the new English culture and the old Scottish. Scott's other great novels include ,i>Old Mortality (1816), The Heart of Midlothian (1819), and St Ronan's Well (1824). His Waverley series includes Rob Roy (1817), A Legend of Montrose (1819), and Quentin Durward (1823).Scott's amiability, generosity, and modesty made him popular with his contemporaries. He was also famous for entertaining on a grand scale at his Scottish estate, Abbotsford. (less)
