但是在1963年，西尔维亚·普拉斯自杀了，这个美国年轻诗人与他第一次见面是在1956年的剑桥大学，而当年夏天又成为了他妻子。

But then, in 1963, Sylvia Plath, a young American poet whom he had first met at Cambridge University in 1956, and who became his wife in the summer of that year, committed suicide.

这种理论能够更好的解释为什么有史以来杰出的艺术家都患有情感性精神障碍，就像作曲家罗伯特·舒曼、诗人西尔维亚·普拉斯以及华莱士。

This theory could help explain why eminent artists throughout history, from composer Robert Schumann to poet Sylvia Plath to Wallace — suffered mood disorders.
