    29. Jane Eyre and Wide Sargasso Sea

    大家好!虽然本台是年更播客,但up并没有冬眠。在过去的一年里,我几次登陆“痴人之爱”,与主播阿酌一起,聊了聊几本“中学生必读世界名著”。“简·爱宇宙”系列做完,依然意犹未尽。在这期英文番外里,我俩继续对于《简·爱》与《藻海无边》的讨论。 我们试着回答——简·爱为啥又回到了老罗身边?一个人不香吗?为什么简·爱的独立女性宣言不可信?《简·爱》作为幻想文学,“幻想性”体现在哪里? 在桑菲尔德的三楼走廊,你选择朝着简·爱的辛德瑞拉故事走,还是转向伯莎的蓝胡子梦魇? 对于失声的伯莎,《藻海无边》作为前传,如何反转疯女人叙事,讲述西印度群岛的被殖民史? 作为英国主旋律文学作品的《简·爱》,它如何回应和塑造纯正的英国性?   欢迎收听,也欢迎补齐播客“痴人之爱”收录的其他简·爱宇宙系列节目。   Hello! Azure and I had a follow-up discussion about Jane Eyre and Wide Sargasso Sea (you can find the previous episodes on Azure’s literature podcast, 痴人之爱). We provided our answers to the questions posed by the audience, incl. the Big Question: why did Jane Eyre go back to the side of Mr. Rochester? WHY?! We also argued that the famous manifesto of gender equality is more of a beguiling display than a heart-felt and effective confession of self-worth and independence. We delved into Bluebeard, the literary archetype of many stories. We read Wide Sargasso Sea, examining how Jean Rhys reversed the narrative of the so-called madwoman in the attic. Finally, we offered our theory on why and how Jane Eyre continues to fascinate generations of readers and what role it plays in imagining a form of pure Britishness.     Hope you enjoy this episode! Let us know what you think! Music Where The Wild Roses Grow by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds and Kylie Minogue

    In conversation with Joseph Graves

    Hello! It’s been quite a while – Welcome back!In this very special episode, Cherry and I were thrilled to have invited Mr Joseph Graves, actor, director, and writer of theatrical plays on the stages of Broadway and China. In 2021, we saw Revel’s World of Shakespeare at Da’ning Theatre. We loved it and couldn’t help shedding a few tears. Now, we had the opportunity to chat with Joe! He shared with us stories behind the creation of Revel’s World of Shakespeare and Man of La Mancha (senior and junior edition), among others. We were inspired by his dedication of bringing the wit and joy of theatre to so many people. Joe has offered us a glimpse into the secret of his successful career. I won’t tell you what it is – you need to listen to the episode to find out :)Thank you, Joe, for this wonderful afternoon!这期节目中,我与车厘子对于在中国生活二十多年的戏剧人Mr Joseph Graves进行采访,Joe细数他在华辛勤耕耘的戏剧舞台背后的故事,聊聊诞生于中国的《一个人的莎士比亚》、他钟爱的《我,堂吉诃德》,以及那些戏剧触及我们心灵的时刻。节目中提到的由“七幕人生”出品的作品(均为中文版)《我,堂吉诃德》,Man of La Mancha《Q大道》,Avenue Q《音乐之声》,The Sound of Music《近乎正常》,Next to Normal《摇滚莫扎特》,Mozart L'Opéra RockFind me at 公众号“敏彻斯特”、小红书“一碗意面”Find Cherry at 播客“老公不在家”“映现场”
