安·兰德(1905—1982)，俄裔美国作家、哲学家。青年时代从苏联流亡美国，以其小说和哲学闻名于世。小说《源泉》(TheFountainhead)1943年出版后立即成为畅销书，并为她赢得了巨大的声誉，该书至今仍以每年超过10万册的数量再版。1957年《耸肩的阿特拉斯神》(Atlas Shrugged)出版，成为美国历史上仅次于《圣经》的超级畅销书，被誉为对美国影响最大的10本书之一，累计销售超过8000万册。 安·兰德推崇理性，认为人的最高美德便是理性；她不顾传统舆论的偏见，力倡个人主义，认为不能使个人利益得到最大伸张的社会，就不是理想社会。她的客观主义哲学自20世纪50年代起风靡美国校园，影响了几代美国人，她本人也成为美国青年崇拜的偶像。安·兰德一生著述百余种，根据她的生平拍摄的记录片和故事片曾获奥斯卡奖。1982年安·兰德去世后，美国创立了许...(展开全部)

约翰•迪克森•卡尔，和阿加莎•克里斯蒂、埃勒里•奎因并称“推理黄金时代三大家”，独以密室题材构思见长，一生设计出五十余种不同类型的密室，被誉为“密室之王”。 一九三三年，卡尔出版基甸•菲尔博士系列首部作品《女巫角》。第二年他以笔名卡特•迪克森发表《瘟疫庄谋杀案》，亨利•梅利维尔爵士登场。这两个系列成为卡尔最具代表性的作品。三十年代是卡尔创作生涯最多产的时期，其中《三口棺材》《扭曲的铰链》（旧译《歪曲的枢纽》）和《犹大之窗》被后世评论家归入“卡尔的经典代表作”。特别是一九三五年出版的《三口棺材》以经典的“密室讲义”和“双重密室”成为推理史上不可能犯罪小说的巅峰之作，至今仍难以超越。 卡尔笔下的密室第一神探基甸•菲尔博士，是一个胖胖的字典编纂者，走路要拄两根拐杖，喜欢穿斗篷，抽着海泡石烟斗，个性相当和蔼可亲。他有着敏锐的观察力，善于分析罪犯的心理，出场代...(展开全部)
