ABSTRACT Bridging the gap between an author’s works based on real life and historical accuracy can be a challenge for literary sites that symbolize both fiction and reality. Louisa May Alcott’s Orchard House, the home of the Alcott family and the place in which she wrote her most famous novel, Little Women, also served as the setting for the book. This dichotomy sometimes confuses readers, who may believe that everything that happens in the novel really occurred in the author’s life. I intend to show how a literary site works to represent both the fictional and historical worlds to its visitors, with the aim of educating and inspiring visitors to learn more about the real-life Alcotts and to come away with a better understanding and deeper appreciation of the author, her ties to her family, and their commitment to improving the world.

虚构与现实:在路易莎·梅·奥尔科特的果园屋发现真正的小女人

摘要 弥合作者基于现实生活和历史准确性的作品之间的差距对于象征虚构和现实的文学网站来说可能是一个挑战。路易莎·梅·奥尔科特 (Louisa May Alcott) 的果园屋是奥尔科特家族的家,也是她写她最著名的小说《小妇人》的地方,也是这本书的背景。这种二分法有时会让读者感到困惑,他们可能会认为小说中发生的一切都确实发生在作者的生活中。我打算展示一个文学网站如何向访问者展示虚构和历史世界,目的是教育和激励访问者更多地了解现实生活中的奥尔科特,并更好地理解和更深入地欣赏作者,她与家人的联系,以及他们对改善世界的承诺。
