[曾达的囚徒 / 安东尼·霍普 著]
The Prisoner of Zenda by Anthony Hope
■ 简介
鲁道夫·拉森狄尔年轻富有，出生于一个历史悠久的英国家庭，可他却长着卢里塔尼亚王室所特有的深红色头发和长而笔挺的鼻子。这是多年前一个小小的家庭“意外”造成的结果。
鲁道夫决定去参加卢里塔尼亚新国王的加冕典礼。他到了曾达城，并在森林里漫步。第二天上午他却发现自己身陷意想不到的奇遇之中。他与新朋友萨普特上尉和弗里茨一起制定了营救曾达城堡中的囚徒的计划。很快他就与国王的死对头黑迈克和鲁帕特交上了手，而且爱上了国王的表妹，美丽的弗蕾维亚公主。
然后国王……然而，谁才是真正的卢里塔尼亚的国王呢？
安东尼·霍普1863年生于伦敦，1933年去世。他的真名是安东尼·霍普·霍金斯爵士。他成为专职作家之前是一位律师。他最著名的作品有《曾达的囚徒》和《鲁帕特》。
■ 1 The Rassendylls-and the Elphbergs
'I wonder when you're going to do something useful， Rudolf，'my brother's wife said．She looked at me crossly over the breakfast table．
'But why should I do anything，Rose？'I answered，calmly eating my egg．'I've got nearly enough money for the things I want，and my brother，Robert，is a lord-Lord Burlesdon．I'm very happy．'
'You're twenty-nine，and you've done nothing except…'
'Play about？It's true．We Rassendylls are a rich and famous family，and we don't need to do anything．'
This made Rose angry．'Rich and famous families usually behave worse than less important families，'she said．
When I heard this，I touched my dark red hair．I knew what she meant．
'I'm so pleased that Robert's hair is black！'she cried．
Just then my brother，Robert，came in．When he looked at Rose，he could see that there was something wrong．
'What's the matter，my dear？'he said．
'Oh，she's angry because I never do anything useful，and because I've got red hair，'I said．
'Well，I know he can't do much about his hair，or his nose…'Rose began．
'No，the nose and the hair are in the family，'my brother agreed．'And Rudolf has both of them．'
In the room there were many family pictures，and one of them was of a very beautiful woman，Lady Amelia，who lived a hundred and fifty years ago．I stood up and turned to look at it．
'If you took that picture away，Robert，'Rose cried，'we could forget all about it．'
'Oh，but I don't want to forget about it，'I replied．'I like being an Elphberg．'
But perhaps I should stop for a moment and explain why Rose was angry about my nose and my hair and why I，a Rassendyll，said I was an Elphberg．After all，the Elphbergs are the royal family of Ruritania，and have been for hundreds of years．
The story is told in a book about the Rassendyll family history．
In the year 1733 Prince Rudolf of Ruritania came to England on a visit and he stayed for several months．Like many of the Elphberg royal family，he had blue eyes，an unusually long straight nose and a lot of dark red hair．He was also tall and very good-looking．
During his stay here，he became friendly with Lady Amelia，the beautiful wife of Lord Burlesdon．They became very good friends indeed，which，naturally，did not please Lord Burlesdon．So，one cold wet morning，the two men fought．The Prince was hurt in the fight，but got better and was hurried back to Ruritania．There he married and became King Rudolf the Third．But Lord Burlesdon fell ill，and six months later he died．Two months after that，Lady Amelia had a baby son，who became the next Lord Burlesdon and the head of the Rassendyll family．The boy grew into a man with blue eyes，a long straight nose，and dark red hair．
These things can happen in the best of families，and among the many pictures of the Rassendylls at home，you can see that five or six of them have the same blue eyes，the same nose，and the same red hair．
So，because my hair was red and I had the Elphberg nose，Rose worried about me．In the end，to please her，I promised to get a job in six months time．This gave me six free months to enjoy myself first．
And an idea came to me．I would visit Ruritania．None of my family had ever been there．They preferred to forget all about the Lady Amelia．But I saw in the newspaper that，in three weeks，the new young King，Rudolf the Fifth，would have his coronation．It would be an interesting time to visit the country．
I knew my family would not like my going，so I told them I was going walking in Austria．
