有史以来最佳小说100种 武夷山 与“有史以来最佳科学图书100种”不同的是,这里有两部中国小说上榜,分别是《红高粱》和《红楼梦》----“双红”啊。 当我整理“有史以来最佳科学图书100种”时，我想：中国出版社的口味还不错，毕竟将榜上的不少图书译为中文了。面对现在这个榜，则不仅感慨：相对于文学翻译，我国的科学著作翻译还是偏弱。到9月78晚14点为止，百种科学著作中查得有中译本的为59种，即59%；而百种小说扣除掉中国的两部后，余下98种中已查得71种有中译本，占72.4%！而且，也许还有一些中译本尚未查证出来。当然，文学翻译对国外作品的覆盖面较全是可以理解的，因为文学作品比科学著作好卖。 有些名著是百分之百有中译本的，于是我就不再注明是哪个出版社的译本。 榜单如下： "Aldous Huxley is the greatest 20th century writer in English." —Chicago Tribune Aldous Huxley is rightly considered a prophetic genius and one of the most important literary and philosophical voices of the 20th Century, and Brave New World is his masterpiece.
