莫言在诺贝尔宴会发表讲话

2012-12-11来源:CCTV9

The annual Nobel Banquet has finished in Stockholm City Hall’s Golden Hall, attended by some 1,500 guests.

The King of Sweden Carl the 16th Gustaf, toasted the 2012 Nobel Prize Laureates and to Alfred Nobel, the founder of the prize. Chinese author, Mo Yan, winner of the literature prize, delivered a speech.

Mo Yan, 2012 Nobel Prize in Literature, said, "I am also well aware that literature only has a minimal influence on political disputes or economic crisis in the world, but its significance to human beings is ancient. When literature exists, perhaps we do not notice how important it is, but when it does not exist, our lives become coarsened and brutal. For this reason, I am proud of my profession, but also aware of its importance."
