What makes a work of literature good or bad? How freely can the reader interpret it? Could a nursery rhyme like Baa Baa Black Sheep be full of concealed loathing, resentment and aggression? In this accessible, delightfully entertaining book, Terry Eagleton addresses these intriguing questions and a host of others. How to Read Literature is the book of choice for students new to the study of literature and for all other readers interested in deepening their understanding and enriching their reading experience. In a series of brilliant analyses, Eagleton shows how to read with due attention to tone, rhythm, texture, syntax, allusion, ambiguity, and other formal aspects of literary works. He also examines broader questions of character, plot, narrative, the creative imagination, the meaning of fictionality, and the tension between what works of literature say and what they show. Unfailingly authoritative and cheerfully opinionated, the author provides useful commentaries on classicism, Romanticism, modernism and postmodernism along with spellbinding insights into a huge range of authors, from Shakespeare and Jane Austen to Samuel Beckett and J. K. Rowling.
不如(重)读<HOW TO READ A POEM>
评分又一个超级毒舌的作者……
评分在书店一个下午看完了。新的理解有不少。应该买回来做笔记。有趣的地方是哈利波特之后展开来谈的那一段。我知道的音节较长的名字高贵poor Jon Snow
评分说理很清晰,不过好浅~
评分一份强力草单,含间歇性剧透(三两字就剧透了罗杰疑案真的是没sei了!!我擦==)。喜欢伊格尔顿略带造作的英式冷幽默,最爱最末章对纳博科夫的分析;以及结尾笑疯。当然作为导读本,还是有点浅了。
