David Copperfield

Japanese: デービッド・コパーフィールド(英語表記)David Copperfield
David Copperfield
A novel by the British novelist C. Dickens. Published in 1850. Written in lieu of an autobiography, it tells the story of the narrator, David, who endured many hardships in life as a child, and his journey from childhood to becoming a successful novelist and getting happily married. Many of the supporting characters who appear around him are unforgettable and even more charming than the protagonist himself, making this a work that could be called a human exhibition. In Japan, Tokutomi Roka was inspired by this work to write Memories (1900-01).

Japanese:
イギリスの小説家C.ディケンズの小説。1850年刊。作者が自叙伝を発表する代りに書いた作品で,幼いころ世の中の苦労をさんざんになめた語り手の主人公デービッドが,立派な小説家として大成し,幸せな結婚をするまでの物語。彼をとりまいて登場する多数の脇役的人物の中にも,忘れられぬ魅力,主人公自身以上の魅力をもった者が多く,まさに人間の展覧会とでもいうべき作品である。日本では徳冨蘆花がこの作品に触発されて《思出の記》(1900‐01)を書いた。
