这是一本博学而充满悬念的小说,场景设定在卢浮宫宏大的厅堂之中。
丹·布朗在小说里描述了一种带有黑色幽默的人生哲学,同时通过小说主人公之口对卢浮宫收藏的经典画作进行了别具一格的点评,对创作这些作品的画家也有非常有意思的介绍。
该书是惊险小说和智力解迷结合的典范之作。
哈佛大学的符号学专家罗伯特·兰登在法国巴黎出差期间的一个午夜接到一个紧急电话,得知卢浮宫博物馆年迈的馆长被人杀害在卢浮宫的博物馆里,人们在他的尸体旁边发现了一个难以捉摸的密码。兰登与法国一位颇有天分的密码破译专家索菲·奈芙,在对一大堆怪异的密码进行整理的过程当中,发现一连串的线索就隐藏在达芬奇的艺术作品当中,深感震惊。这些线索,大家都清楚可见,然而却被画家巧妙地隐藏起来。
兰登无意之中非常震惊地发现,已故的博物馆馆长是峋山隐修会(Priory of Sion)的成员——这是一个真实存在的秘密组织,其成员包括艾撒克·牛顿爵士、波提切利、维克多·雨果与达芬奇,这无疑给他们增加了风险。兰登感觉到他们是在找寻一个石破天惊的历史秘密,这是个数世纪以来就证明了的既能给人启迪又很危险的秘密。在这场足迹遍及巴黎以及伦敦的追逐中,兰登与奈芙发现他们在跟一位始终不露面的幕后操纵者斗智斗勇。他们必须解开这个错综复杂的谜团,否则,峋山隐修会掩盖的秘密,那隐藏了多年的令人震惊的古老真相,将永远消逝在历史的尘埃之中。

With The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown masterfully concocts an intelligent and lucid thriller that marries the gusto of an international murder mystery with a collection of fascinating esoteria culled from 2,000 years of Western history.
A murder in the silent after-hour halls of the Louvre museum reveals a sinister plot to uncover a secret that has been protected by a clandestine society since the days of Christ. The victim is a high-ranking agent of this ancient society who, in the moments before his death, manages to leave gruesome clues at the scene that only his granddaughter, noted cryptographer Sophie Neveu, and Robert Langdon, a famed symbologist, can untangle. The duo become both suspects and detectives searching for not only Neveu's grandfather's murderer but also the stunning secret of the ages he was charged to protect. Mere steps ahead of the authorities and the deadly competition, the mystery leads Neveu and Langdon on a breathless flight through France, England, and history itself. Brown (Angels and Demons) has created a page-turning thriller that also provides an amazing interpretation of Western history. Brown's hero and heroine embark on a lofty and intriguing exploration of some of Western culture's greatest mysteries--from the nature of the Mona Lisa's smile to the secret of the Holy Grail. Though some will quibble with the veracity of Brown's conjectures, therein lies the fun. The Da Vinci Code is an enthralling read that provides rich food for thought.

From Publishers Weekly
Brown's latest thriller (after Angels and Demons)is an exhaustively researched page-turner about secret religious societies, ancient coverups and savage vengeance. The action kicks off in modern-day Paris with the murder of the Louvre's chief curator, whose body is found laid out in symbolic repose at the foot of the Mona Lisa. Seizing control of the case are Sophie Neveu, a lovely French police cryptologist, and Harvard symbol expert Robert Langdon, reprising his role from Brown's last book. The two find several puzzling codes at the murder scene, all of which form a treasure map to the fabled Holy Grail. As their search moves from France to England, Neveu and Langdon are confounded by two mysterious groups-the legendary Priory of Sion, a nearly 1,000-year-old secret society whose members have included Botticelli and Isaac Newton, and the conservative Catholic organization Opus Dei. Both have their own reasons for wanting to ensure that the Grail isn't found. Brown sometimes ladles out too much religious history at the expense of pacing, and Langdon is a hero in desperate need of more chutzpah. Still, Brown has assembled a whopper of a plot that will please both conspiracy buffs and thriller addicts.
From Library Journal
When Brown regular Robert Langdon is called in to investigate the murder of a curator at the Louvre, he discovers that the body is surrounded by strange ciphers evidently linked to the paintings of Da Vinci-and a powerful relic protected by the Priory, a secret society to which the artist belonged.
From Booklist
In a two-day span, American symbologist Robert Langdon finds himself accused of murdering the curator of the Louvre, on the run through the streets of Paris and London, and teamed up with French cryptologist Sophie Neveu to uncover nothing less than the secret location of the Holy Grail. It appears that a conservative Catholic bishop might be on the verge of destroying the Grail, which includes an alternate history of Christ that could bring down the church. Whoever is ordering the deaths of the Grail's guardians--modern-day members of an ancient society descended from the famed Knights Templar--must be stopped before the treasure is lost forever. To do so, Langdon and Neveu have to solve a series of ciphers and riddles while evading a tireless French police commander and a ruthless albino monk. Despite being hampered by clunky flashback sequences and place descriptions that read like tourist brochures, the story is full of brain-teasing puzzles and fascinating insights into religious history and art. Ultimately, Brown's intricate plot delivers more satisfying twists than a licorice factory.

这是一本关于“看见”与“被看见”的哲学探讨,披着一层激动人心的寻宝外衣。叙事者似乎在不断地引导我们质疑我们所接受的一切“既定事实”。它巧妙地利用了读者对既有权威的天然不信任感,将我们带入了一个既熟悉又极度陌生的世界——那个隐藏在光天化日之下、由秘密社团精心维护的权力结构。我非常着迷于作者构建的那种氛围:那种无处不在的监视感,让你仿佛能听到幕后黑手在耳边低语,每一步行动都必须精确无误,因为代价是文明的根基可能会被动摇。书中对符号学和密码学的阐释,虽然可能带有艺术加工,但其逻辑推演过程是极其严谨且令人信服的,它强迫读者调动所有感官去分析每一个出现的字母、每一个几何图形。更深一层来看,它探讨的是知识的垄断权,以及当真相被权力机构以“维护稳定”的名义所掩盖时,民间力量如何通过智慧和勇气去重新发掘。我合上书页时,第一反应不是解脱,而是对周围世界的结构产生了深深的怀疑,这是一种非常高级的阅读体验,它挑战的不是你的智商,而是你的世界观基础。
评分老实说,我一开始有点担心,这种聚焦于宗教密辛和历史阴谋的小说会不会写得枯燥晦涩,变成一本学术论文的变体。但出乎意料的是,作者的文笔极其流畅且富有画面感,即便是描述那些极其复杂的教义演变或艺术品解析,他也能将其转化为一场视觉盛宴。主人公们穿梭于巴黎、伦敦、罗马的古老建筑群中,那种场景描摹简直让人身临其境,你几乎能闻到地下密室里潮湿的霉味和古旧羊皮纸的香气。角色的塑造也很有意思,他们不是传统的动作英雄,而是学者和专家,他们的武器是知识和逻辑推理。特别是主角面对巨大压力时,那种知识分子式的焦虑与固执,非常真实。唯一美中不足(或者说,也是其魅力所在),是某些高潮部分的逻辑跳跃略显仓促,但考虑到它需要串联起如此庞大的历史信息链条,这种瑕疵是可以被理解的。总而言之,这是一部将欧洲文艺复兴后的艺术史、建筑史,与现代惊悚元素完美融合的典范之作,它让阅读变成了一次高强度的智力冒险,而非单纯的消遣。
评分这部作品的魅力在于其无休止的“What If”的驱动力。它搭建了一个看似不可能的假设——如果历史上最伟大的艺术品和宗教文本,其实是关于一个惊天秘密的编码——然后,它用极其扎实的、仿佛教科书般的细节来支撑这个假设的合理性。我个人对其中关于特定艺术大师生平的小段插叙特别着迷,那些看似无关紧要的传记细节,往往在故事的后半段被证明是至关重要的钥匙,这种伏笔的铺陈艺术,堪称一绝。它让读者时刻保持高度警觉,任何一个配角、任何一句对话、任何一个背景描述,都可能是通往终极真相的线索。从文学角度看,它成功地将“寻宝”这一古老母题,升级到了“真理探寻”的高度,其节奏的快慢变化处理得炉火纯青,紧张的对峙与沉思的解谜交替出现,使得即使是篇幅不短的阅读过程也毫无冗余之感。读罢,你最大的感受是智力上的满足,仿佛刚刚通过了一项极其高难度的智力测验,并且成功揭示了一个可能颠覆现有认知的秘密。
评分阅读这本书的过程,就像是解开一个环环相扣的俄罗斯套娃,每当你以为到达了核心秘密时,作者总能巧妙地拉出一个更宏大、更令人震惊的背景故事。叙事的张力来自于信息的不对称性——读者和主角一样,都在紧追着一个信息流,却始终慢了幕后操纵者半拍。我对作者对不同文化符号的交叉引用能力感到由衷佩服,他能够将中世纪的炼金术、文艺复兴早期的艺术手法、以及现代的密码破译技术,构建在一个看似严密无缝的逻辑框架内。这种跨学科的叙事跨度,极大地拓宽了故事的维度,使得情节的转折充满了合理的“惊喜感”。这本书最成功的地方在于,它不仅仅讲述了一个追凶故事,它更像是一堂关于“诠释学”的入门课,教导我们如何看待文本、图像背后的隐喻和权力意志。那些被历史的洪流冲刷掉的“非主流”叙事,在这里被赋予了至高无上的重要性,让人在阅读结束后,忍不住想回头翻阅那些被“主流”历史书忽略的角落,寻找那些被刻意抹去的痕迹。
评分这本书简直是场思维的马拉松,全程肾上腺素飙升!从翻开扉页的那一刻起,就被那种扑面而来的历史迷雾和宗教符号紧紧攫住了。作者对于细节的考究达到了令人发指的地步,仿佛每一个场景、每一件艺术品背后都藏着一个等待被揭开的千年秘密。我尤其欣赏他对欧洲古老文化,特别是那些鲜为人知的教会派系和神秘学说信手拈来的运用,那种将学术性的深度与惊心动魄的追逐戏码完美融合的叙事技巧,让人欲罢不能。整个故事的节奏把控得极其精妙,时而紧张到令人窒息的街头追逐,时而又沉静下来,深入那些尘封已久的手稿和密码之中,那种在历史的断层中寻找真相的快感,是其他小说难以比拟的。读完后,我感觉自己好像也参与了一场横跨大陆的智力解谜游戏,对那些平日里习以为常的文化符号,比如某幅名画的特定笔触、某座教堂的建筑结构,都产生了全新的、充满警惕的审视。这不仅仅是一部悬疑小说,更像是一堂高强度的、关于西方文明隐藏史的速成课,读完后,你对艺术史和宗教学的兴趣绝对会被激发到顶峰,迫不及待想要去图书馆查阅更多资料来印证书中的推测。
