Conservative historian Paul Johnson wears his ideology proudly on his sleeve in this often ruthless dissection of the thinkers and artists who (in his view) have shaped modern Western culture, having replaced some 200 years ago "the old clerisy as the guides and mentors of mankind." Taking on the likes of Karl Marx, Bertrand Russell, Lillian Hellman, and Noam Chomsky in turn, Johnson examines one idol after another and finds them all to have feet of clay. In his account, for instance, Ernest Hemingway emerges as an artistic hero who labored endlessly to forge a literary style unmistakably his own, but also as a deeply flawed man whose concern for the perfect phrase did not carry over to a concern for the women who loved him. Gossipy and sharply opinionated, Johnson's essay in cultural history spares no one.

Does it really matter that Henrik Ibsen was vain and arrogant, that Jean-Paul Sartre was incontinent? In Johnson's view, it does: these all-too-human foibles disqualify them, and other thinkers, from presuming to criticize the shortcomings of society. "Beware intellectuals," he concludes (though, given the subjects of his book, it seems he means intellectuals only of the left). "Not only should they be kept well away from the levers of power, they should also be objects of particular suspicion when they seek to offer collective advice." Whether one agrees or not, Johnson's profiles are frequently amusing and illuminating, as when he suggests that the only proletarian Karl Marx ever knew in person was the poor maid who worked for him for decades and was never paid, except in room and board, for her labors.

看完了保罗.约翰逊的《知识分子》。 这是一本专揭知识分子尤其是大知识分子短的书。作者详尽地展示和评说了卢梭、雪莱、易卜生、托尔斯泰、海明威、布莱希特、罗素、萨特、埃德蒙·威尔逊、维克多·高兰茨、莉莲·海尔曼等十多位人文知识分子不为常人所知的私生活。以往,这些...

Somebody once said our eyes do not show a lack of sense of beauty, but a lack of discovery. Apparently, it's an undoubtful guide to Paul Johnson and his controversial book Intellectuals, only what he want to discover is not beauty, but scandals and gossips....
