A Brief Introduction to Translation of Selected Masterpiece: For Whom the Bell Tolls: Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) is one of the most outstanding writers in the United States and winner of the 1954 Nobel Prize for Literature. For Whom the Bell Tolls is one of his main works. Robert Jordan, a young American, volunteered to join the Spanish government army to carry out explosion activities in the rear of the enemy. In order to cooperate with the counter-offensive, he was ordered to contact local guerrillas and complete the task of exploding the bridge. In the torrential war, he fell in love with the little girl Maria who was raped by the enemy, thus smoothing the wounds of Maria’s soul. In three days, Robert experienced the conflict between love and responsibility and the test of life and death. His human nature was constantly sublimated. On the way of retreating after exploding the bridge, he gave his hope of living to others. His leg was broken by the shell, so he stayed alone to stop the enemy and finally devoted his young life to the Spanish people. For Whom the Bell Tolls has touched generation after generation with its profound humanitarian force.
