传记作者

Two controversial books about Rand the person remain a good place to start for an understanding, but not adulatory, look at her life and work: The Passion of Ayn Rand (1986) by Barbara Branden, no doubt the first-ever sympathetic biography whose subject slept with the biographer's husband, and Judgment Day: My Years With Ayn Rand (1989) by Nathaniel Branden, the husband in question.

作为理解而非阿谀Rand这位仍保持重要地位的人，有两本具有争议的书可供阅读。一本是观察她生活和工作：《Ayn Rand的激情(1986)》 Barbara Branden著。这无疑是世界第一值得同情的传记作品了，作者的记录对象曾与作者丈夫睡觉。另一本是《审判日：我与Ayn Rand（1989）》Nathaniel Branden著，那位丈夫遭到质讯。

Finally gas-masked and helmeted police charged into the crowd to drag off the demonstrators one by one.

这是一篇"传记"，作者采用以反衬正的对比手法写出了福尔摩斯之惊人才华。

It accepts everything royally; it is not too particular about its Venus; its Callipyge is Hottentot; provided that it is made to laugh, it condones; ugliness cheers it, deformity provokes it to laughter, vice diverts it; be eccentric and you may be an eccentric; even hypocrisy, that supreme cynicism, does not disgust it; it is so literary that it does not hold its nose before Basile, and is no more scandalized by the prayer of Tartuffe than Horace was repelled by the "hiccup" of Priapus.

巴黎每天要唱一百万公升的水，但是这并不妨碍它在适当的时候打鼓吹号敲钟，进入警备状态。①普卢塔克（Plutaroue，约46？25），古希腊唯心主义哲学家，古希腊罗马杰出活动家传记的作者。②多米齐安（Domitian，51？6），罗马皇帝（81？6）。除此之外，巴黎是个好孩子。它豁达大度地接受一切，在美女面前它是不难说话的，它的美女是霍屯督①，只要它笑，凡事都好商量，丑态使它欢跃，畸形使它喜悦，恶德使它忘忧，只要与众不同，便可博得众人欢心，伪善即使是绝顶无耻的行为，也不会使它暴跳。它是那样爱好文学，以致在巴西尔②的跟前也不会捂着鼻子，它对达尔杜弗③的祈祷所起的反感并不比贺拉斯对普里阿普斯打嗝的反感来得更强烈。

Diligent and humorous, Linda Lear is a good match for her subject, and she never makes the mistake that academics so often make of substituting prurience and a convoluted political correctness for insight and a clear writing style.
