Information is endlessly available to us; where shall wisdom be found?" is the crucial question with which renowned literary critic Harold Bloom begins this impassioned book on the pleasures and benefits of reading well. For more than forty years, Bloom has transformed college students into lifelong readers with his unrivaled love for literature. Now, at a time when faster and easier electronic media threatens to eclipse the practice of reading, Bloom draws on his experience as critic, teacher, and prolific reader to plumb the great books for their sustaining wisdom. Shedding all polemic, Bloom addresses the solitary reader, who, he urges, should read for the purest of all reasons: to discover and augment the self. His ultimate faith in the restorative power of literature resonates on every page of this infinitely rewarding and important book.
Bloom is a literary critic, and currently a Sterling Professor of the Humanities at Yale University. Since the publication of his first book in 1959, Bloom has written more than 20 books of literary criticism, several books discussing religion, and one novel. He has edited hundreds of anthologies.
文学批评家哈罗德•布鲁姆是一个执着的老人,他对莎士比亚的热爱超出了一般人的想象,在其批评体系中,莎士比亚覆盖着整个天空,洞穿了所有的认知;因之,布鲁姆为这位文学巨擘写就的研究著作,其书名直接将“莎士比亚”等同于“人的发明”。有着如此的热爱,在新书《如何...
评分 评分 评分这位读者的概括不错。摘录如下: 在《西方正典》中,布鲁姆说道,文学最大的功用就是教人以孤独,在《如》一书中,布鲁姆又指出文学的功用是教人战胜孤独和自我治愈。这看似矛盾,其实是二而一的,在这种孤独教育中,人发现了自我,并且使得自我更加有厚度。不过坏的文学会让人...
评分文学是善的一种形式 顾文豪 刊于2011年6月18日《文汇报》 电影《国王的演讲》中有个颇有意味的段落,罗格医生拿《费加罗婚礼序曲》堵住伯蒂的耳朵,请他大声诵读莎翁名段“To be, or not to be—that is the question”。伯蒂满心疑虑战战兢兢,浑然不觉自己其实读得酣畅雄浑...
没有人能在一本两百余页的书中写透数十位历史上最伟大的诗人和作家,布鲁姆所做的则是将自己阅读的私人感悟分享出来。勾勒所选作品的大致情节以及独特之处,是为”how to read"; 解释这些作品在莎翁的影响之下所创造出的新的价值,回答了“why to read"; 而所有谈及的书目,则是布鲁姆在书名中没有点明的"what to read".
评分诗歌部分还是要看原版。
评分下午在图书馆休息,顺便拎出来看了看,老谈possession by memory,想起自己爱在嘴边背的那些诗。irony那个讲法感觉被认识的一个老师偷学走了。Housman常读常新,What are those blue remembered hills...看前言想起现在学校英语系研究生清一色gender and sexuality和African...
评分ah, this is not for me....
