地方性遗产

您读过由威尔德所写的「小屋」(Little House)读本,或看过「草原小屋」(Little House on the Prairie)这部电视剧吗?

威尔德是小屋系列丛书的着名作者,出生于威斯康辛州的广大森林间。七岁时,与她的家人搭乘篷车旅行并搬至明尼苏达州核桃丛(Walnut Grove)的大草原。1862年的宅地法案(Homestead Act)鼓励美国大众向西部前进并定居在那儿,威尔德一家即是因这个法案定居在这片草原上的拓荒者之一。

现在,每年七月,核桃丛的居民会举办威尔德露天历史剧,以欢庆威尔德的着作。这出剧是一个以家庭为导向的户外戏剧表演,剧中可看见威尔德的草原小屋书中的所有角色。一个女演员装扮成70岁的萝拉威尔德,负责讲述剧中故事大纲,反映出1870年代,威尔德在核桃丛的生活情形。假如您从未阅读任何一本小屋系列的书,那么您应该找个机会念念,因为您可以自这系列书中,得知许多1870年代的美国生活情况。


Have you read any of the Little House books by Laura Ingalls Wilder or seen the TV show "Little House on the Prairie"?

Laura Ingalls Wilder, well-known author of the Little House series of books, was born in the big woods of Wisconsin. When she was 7, she and her family traveled by covered wagon and moved to the prairie land of Walnut Grove, Minnesota. Her family was one of the pioneer families who settled there, following the Homestead Act of 1862, which encouraged Americans to travel west and settle.

Today, the people of Walnut Grove celebrate Wilder's books every July with the Laura Ingalls Wilder Pageant. The Pageant is a family-oriented outdoor drama with all of Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House on the Prairie book characters. An actress playing a 70-year-old Laura narrates the story, reflecting on her life in Walnut Grove during the 1870s. If you've never read any of the Little House books, you should, because you can learn a lot about life in America during the 1870s.
