课前热身Warming Up 1. Background knowledge
About the author Guy de Maupassant (莫泊桑1850-1893 was a well-known French novelist and short-story writer. He was born in Normandy, France, on August 5, 1850. As a school boy, he was very much interested in literature, and won a prize for one of his poems. So his writing began at an early age, and he became a famous novelist in his thirties. He wrote in the tradition of the 19th century French realism. Most of his works were about everyday life of the simple humble people. As he had worked in government departments since 1871, he became familiar with the life of government workers. This experience helped him create his best short story“The Diamond Necklace”. He had a fine use of irony. His style was direct and simple, with attention to realistic detail. The play we are going to learn is typical of Maupassant’s choice of topic and characters and his style and use of irony. Maupassant suffered a great deal from illness in his later life. He only lived for 43 years and died in Paris on July 6, 1893. He had a short life, but his works will last forever. 2.
