《呼啸山庄》是英国女作家勃朗特姐妹之一艾米莉·勃朗特的作品。小说描写吉卜赛弃儿希斯克利夫被山庄老主人收养后，因受辱和恋爱不遂，外出致富，回来后对与其女友凯瑟琳结婚的地主林顿及其子女进行报复的故事。全篇充满强烈的反压迫、争幸福的斗争精神，又始终笼罩着离奇、紧张的浪漫气氛。它开始曾被人看做是年青女作家脱离现实的天真幻想，但结合其所描写地区激烈的阶级斗争和英国的社会现象，它不久便被评论界高度肯定，并受到读者的热烈欢迎。根据这部小说改编的影视作品至今久演不衰。[/color][/align]

[align=left][color=#d8d8d8][b]作者简介：[/b][/color][/align]
[align=left][color=#d8d8d8]艾米莉·勃朗特（1818-1848），19世纪英国小说家、诗人，英国文学史上著名的“勃朗特三姐妹”之一。这位女作家在世界上仅仅度过了三十年便默默无闻地离开了人间，然而她唯一的一部小说《呼啸山庄》却奠定了她在英国文学史以及世界文学史上的地位。此外，她还创作了193首诗，被认为是英国一位天才型的女作家。

她生性独立、豁达、纯真、刚毅、热情而又内向，颇有男儿气概，酷爱自己生长其间的荒原，平素在离群索居中，除去手足情谊，最喜与大自然为友，从她的诗和一生行为，都可见她天人合一宇宙观与人生观的表现，有人因此而将她视为神秘主义者。其实人与自然的关系，从来就是人类文明史上重要的命题，艾米莉不过是步历代哲人、隐者、科学家、艺术家后尘，通过生活和创作，身体力行地探寻人与自然的关系。[/color][/align]

[align=left][color=#f2f2f2][b]Chapter One. Part 1[/b]

Wuthering Heights is the name of Mr Heathcliff’s dwelling, ‘wuthering’ being a significant provincial adjective, descriptive of the atmospheric tumult to which its station is exposed in stormy weather. Pure, bracing ventilation they must have up there, at all times, indeed: one may guess the power of the north wind, blowing over the edge, by the excessive slant of a few, stunted firs at the end of the house; and by a range of gaunt thorns all stretching their limbs one way, as if craving alms of the sun. Happily, the architect had foresight to build it strong: the narrow windows are deeply set in the wall, and the corners defended with large jutting stones.

[b]【译文】[/b]
呼啸山庄是希斯克利夫先生住所的名称。“呼啸”是一个意味深长的当地的形容词，形容这地方在暴风雨天气里空气的喧嚷。的确，他们这儿一定随时都流通着清新凉爽的空气，从房屋那头那几棵过度倾斜的矮小冷杉，还有那一排瘦削的荆棘——它们的分支伸向一侧，仿佛在渴求太阳的布施，我们就可以猜想北风刮过房檐的威力了。所幸的是，建筑师很有远见地把房子盖得很坚固：狭窄的窗子深深地嵌在墙里，两边都用凸出的大石块保护着。

Chapter One. Part 2
One step brought us into the family sitting-room, without any introductory lobby or passage: they call it here `the house' preeminently. It includes kitchen and parlour, generally; but I believe at Wuthering Heights the kitchen is forced to retreat altogether into another quarter: at least I distinguished a chatter of tongues, and a clatter of culinary utensils, deep within; and I observed no signs of roasting, boiling, or baking, about the huge fireplace; nor any glitter of copper saucepans and tin cullenders on the walls. One end, indeed, reflected splendidly both light and heat from ranks of immense pewter dishes, interspersed with silver jugs and tankards, towering row after row, on a vast oak dresser, to the very roof. The latter had never been underdrawn: its entire anatomy lay bare to an inquiring eye, except where a frame of wood laden with oatcakes and clusters of legs of beef, mutton, and ham, concealed it. Above the chimney were sundry villainous old guns, and a couple of horse-pistols: and, by way of ornament, three gaudily painted canisters disposed along its ledge. The floor was of smooth, white stone; the chairs, high-backed, primitive structures, painted green: one or two heavy black ones lurking in the shade. In an arch under the dresser, reposed a huge, liver-coloured bitch pointer, surrounded by a swarm of squealing puppies; and other dogs haunted other recesses.

【译文】

根本不用经过任何会客室或是走道，我一步就跨进了起居室，这就是典型的他们所谓的“屋子”，通常的屋子连厨房带客厅都包括在内，但是我认为，在呼啸山庄里，厨房必定是被挤到另一个角落里去了：至少我听出来在里屋有喋喋的说话声和厨房用具的碰撞声；而在大壁炉四周我看不出有什么烤、煮或烘焙的痕迹；在墙上也没有发现有铜质炖锅和锡制滤勺之类的东西在闪闪发光。倒是在屋子的另一头，在一个巨大的像木橱柜里陈列着白镴盘；以及一些银壶和银杯散置着，一排排的垒到橱顶，被它们反射出的光线和热气映照得灿烂夺目。橱柜从未上过漆；它的整个构造一览无遗。只有一处，被摆满了麦饼、牛羊腿和火腿之类的木架遮盖住了。壁炉台上挂着各式各样的蹩脚的老式熗，还有一对马熗；还有三个上色俗气的茶叶罐靠边排列着，当做装饰。地板是平滑的白石铺砌的；椅子是高背的，结构粗糙，涂着绿漆，还有一两把笨重的黑椅子藏在暗处。橱柜下面的圆拱里，躺着一条巨大的、深褐色的母猎狗，一窝唧唧叫着的小狗围着它，还有些狗在其他地方安身。

Chapter One. Part 3
The apartment and furniture would have been nothing extraordinary as belonging to a homely, northern farmer, with a stubborn countenance, and stalwart limbs set out to advantage in knee breeches and gaiters. Such an individual seated in his armchair, his mug of ale frothing on the round table before him, is to be seen in any circuit of five or six miles among these hills, if you go at the right time after dinner. But Mr Heathcliff forms a singular contrast to his abode and style of living. He is a dark-skinned gipsy in aspect, in dress and manners a gentleman: that is, as much a gentleman as many a country squire: rather slovenly, perhaps, yet not looking amiss with his negligence, because he has an erect and handsome figure; and rather morose. Possibly, some people might suspect him of a degree of under-bred pride; I have a sympathetic chord within that tells me it is nothing of the sort: I know, by instinct, his reserve springs from an aversion to showy displays of feeling--to manifestations of mutual kindliness. He'll love and hate equally under cover, and esteem it a species of impertinence to be loved or hated again. No, I'm running on too fast: I bestow my own attributes over liberally on him. Mr Heathcliff may have entirely dissimilar reasons for keeping his hand out of the way when he meets a would-be acquaintance, to those which actuate me. Let me hope my constitution is almost peculiar: my dear mother used to say I should never have a comfortable home; and only last summer I proved myself perfectly unworthy of one.

【译文】

要是主人是一个普通的北方庄稼汉，长着一张倔强的脸，拥有一双被绑腿马裤衬托得尤为粗壮的腿，那么像这样的屋子和陈设倒也没什么特别。只要你去的时间恰巧是午饭之后，那么在这山中周围五六英里内，随处都可以看到这样的人，他坐在扶手椅上，一大杯冒着泡沫的啤酒放在他面前的圆桌上。然后希斯克利夫先生和他的住宅，以及生活方式，却形成了一种奇怪的对比。从容貌来说，他是个深色皮肤的吉普赛人，从衣着和言谈举止来说，他是个绅士——也就是说，像乡绅那样的绅士：也许有点不修边幅，可这点疏忽并不见得就叫人看不顺眼，因为他的身材挺拔、外表英俊，只是有点郁郁不乐。可能有人会怀疑，他多少带点缺乏教养的傲慢，然而我和他有一种感情上的共鸣，告诉我并不是那回事。我凭着本能，知道他的冷淡源于他对矫揉造作的反感——互相表示亲热的厌恶。他把爱和恨都埋藏在心里，又把被人爱或恨看做是不合时宜的事情。不，我这样下判断可太早了：我把自己的喜好强加于他了。希斯克利夫可能就有他完全不同于我的理由，才在预见一个准熟人的时候，便把手收起来。但愿我这天性算得上是特别的吧。我亲爱的母亲总说我永远不会有个舒服的家。直到去年夏天我证实了自己的确不配有那样一个家。
