Mario Vargas Llosa

      Peruvian (n.秘魯人) Mario Vargas Llosa (n.略薩), one of the most acclaimed (adj.受讚譽的) writers in the Spanish(n.西班牙語)-speaking world, has been awarded the 2010 Nobel (n.諾貝爾(獎)) Prize for literature (n.文學).
      The Swedish (adj.瑞典的) Academy (n.學院) hailed (v.讚揚) "his cartography (n.描繪) of structures of power" and "trenchant (adj.鮮明的) images (n.意象) of the individual's resistance (n.抗爭), revolt (n.反叛), and defeat (n.挫折)."
      The 74-year-old has written more than 30 novels (n.小說), plays (n.劇作) and essays (n.文章).
      The Swedish Academy's Peter Englund (n.英格倫) said Vargas Llosa was "a divinely (adv.非凡地) gifted (adj.天賦的) story-teller (n.講故事的人)," whose writing touched (v.感動) the reader.
      Born in the town of Arequipa (n.阿雷基帕), Vargas Llosa took Spanish (adj.西班牙的) nationality (n.國籍) in 1993 - three years after an unsuccessful bid (n.競逐) for the Peruvian (adj.秘魯的) presidency (n.總統職位).
      The writer's international breakthrough (n.突破) came with the 1960s novel The Time of The Hero (n.西班牙原名是La ciudad y los perros,即《城市與狗》) which built on his experiences at the Peruvian military (adj.軍事的) academy (n.專科學校), Leoncio Prado (n.萊昂西奧?狺普拉多).
      His best-known (adj.最著名的) works include Conversation In The Cathedral (n.中譯《酒吧長談》), The War of the End of the World (n.《世界末日之戰》) and The Feast of the Goat (n.《公羊的節日》).(BBC, October 7)
      秘魯裔的略薩——西班牙語世界一位享負盛名的作家——獲頒2010年諾貝爾文學獎。
      瑞典學院讚揚“他對權力架構的描繪”,以及“關於個人抗爭、反叛、挫折的鮮明意象”。
      他現年74歲,曾寫過30多部小說、劇作、文集。
      瑞典學院的英格倫說,略薩是“講故事擁有非凡天賦的人”,其作品讓讀者感動。
      略薩出生於阿雷基帕市,在1993年入籍西班牙——即他競逐秘魯總統失敗後3年。
      這位作家在1960年代出版小說《城市與狗》,開始在國際上打響名堂。書中以他在萊昂西奧?狺普拉多軍事學校的經歷為藍本。
      他最著名的作品包括《酒吧長談》、《世界末日之戰》、《公羊的節日》。
