"Five Faces of Modernity" is a series of semantic and cultural biographies of words that have taken on special significance in the last century and a half or so: "modernity," "avant-garde," "decadence," "kitsch," and "postmodernism." The concept of modernity--the notion that we, the living, are different and somehow superior to our predecessors and that our civilization is likely to be succeeded by one even superior to ours--is a relatively recent Western invention and one whose time may already have passed, if we believe its postmodern challengers. Calinescu documents the rise of cultural modernity and, in tracing the shifting senses of the five terms under scrutiny, illustrates the intricate value judgments, conflicting orientations, and intellectual paradoxes to which it has given rise.
"Five Faces of Modernity" attempts to do for the foundations of the modernist critical lexicon what earlier terminological studies have done for such complex categories as "classicism," "baroque," "romanticism," "realism," or "symbolism" and thereby fill a gap in literary scholarship. On another, more ambitious level, Calinescu deals at length with the larger issues, dilemmas, ideological tensions, and perplexities brought about by the assertion of modernity.

評分 評分 評分 評分理性主义的进步概念同对价值观念普遍与永恒性的信仰绝非不相容。十七和十八世纪期间,即使是最真诚的进步主义教条派也毫不怀疑他们的价值体系与价值判断的绝对有效性……进步主义者认为,知识的进步、文明的发展和理性的启蒙有助于人们更好、更有效地理解那些恒常边在的价值观...
more factual than Benjamin, more readable than Nietzsche
评分深入淺齣,娓娓道來什麼是modernity,第一章裏麵說modernity和Christian的關係,以及time consciousness,延伸齣utopia的問題,後麵說Kitsch的寫的很有趣。
评分aesthetic modernity as "a crisis concept involved in a threefold dialectical opposition," and modernity as "the name of a cultural family resemblance"
评分仍然是一本不錯的學習設計或是藝術相關書籍
评分臥槽這麼多頁怎麼可能下周就寫齣review來???拙計!!!
