阅读雅克·普莱维尔 Jacques Prévert在诗海的作品!!! | |||||
他的主要著作有《话语》(Paroles)、《雨和晴天》(La Pluie et le Beau Temps)、《故事》(Histoires)、《废物》(Fatras)等。雅克·普莱维尔（Jacques Prevert，1900-1977 ）法国诗人、歌唱家、电影编剧。他是法国二十世纪著名诗人，同时也参与多部电影台词及歌词创作。其貌似简朴的诗作充满奇妙的电影效果和丰富的音乐感。他的第一部诗集<话语>自诞生之日直到当今仍是年轻人最喜爱的读物之一。正如诗集的名字，集内的所有诗歌没有晦涩的词汇和深奥的句法，作者在用他最平实的"话语"与读者交流，然而，正是这些最简单最朴实的语句所描绘出的不寻常的"神奇世界"深深地打动着一代又一代读者的心。 他最著名的电影作品是《天上人间》(1946)和我们都很熟悉的《巴黎圣母院》(1956)。
Early life
Prévert grew up in Paris where he was bored by school. He often went to theater with his father, a drama critic, and acquired a love of reading from his mother. After receiving his Certificat d'études attesting to his having completed his primary education, he quit school and went to work in Le Bon Marché department store in Paris. Then, he was called up for military service in 1918 and after the war was sent to the Near East.
Poetry
Prévert participated actively in the surrealist movement and was a member of the rue du Château group along with Raymond Queneau and Marcel Duchamp, although Prévert was really too much of a free spirit to be a member of any group.
Prévert's poems were published in his books Paroles (Words) (1946), Histoires (Stories) (1963), Spectacle (1951), La Pluie et le beau temps (Rain and Good Weather) (1955), Fatras (1971) and Choses et autres (Things and Others) (1973).
His poems are often about life in Paris and life after the Second World War. They are widely taught in schools in France and frequently appear in French language textbooks throughout the world.
Some of Prévert's poems such as Les Feuilles mortes (Autumn Leaves) were set to music by Joseph Kosma, Germaine Tailleferre of Les Six, Christiane Verger and Hanns Eisler, and were also sung by prominent 20th century French vocalists including Yves Montand and Édith Piaf as well as by the American singer Joan Baez.
Film
Prévert wrote a number of classic screenplays for the film director Marcel Carné. Among the films were Drôle de drame (Bizarre, Bizarre, 1937), Quai des brumes (Port of Shadows, 1938), Le jour se lève (Daybreak, 1939), Les Visiteurs du soir (The Night Visitors, 1942) and Les enfants du paradis (The Children of Paradise, 1945), often considered one of the greatest films of all time. His poems were also the basis for the movie La Seine a rencontré Paris (The Seine Meets Paris, 1957) by the film director and documentarist Joris Ivens, being read as narration during the film by singer Serge Reggiani.
