Aldous Huxley was born on 26th July 1894 near Godalming, Surrey. He began writing poetry and short stories in his early twenties, but it was his first novel, Crome Yellow (1921), which established his literary reputation. This was swiftly followed by Antic Hay (1923), Those Barren Leaves (1925) and Point Counter Point (1928) - bright, brilliant satires in which Huxley wittily but ruthlessly passed judgement on the shortcomings of contemporary society. The great novels of ideas, including his most famous work Brave New World (published in 1932 this warned against the dehumanising aspects of scientific and material 'progress') and the pacifist novel Eyeless in Gaza (1936) were accompanied by a series of wise and brilliant essays, collected in volume form under titles such as Music at Night (1931) and Ends and Means (1937). In 1937, at the height of his fame, Huxley left Europe to live in California, working for a time as a screenwriter in Hollywood. As the West braced itself for war, Huxley came increasingly to believe that the key to solving the world's problems lay in changing the individual through mystical enlightenment. The exploration of the inner life through mysticism and hallucinogenic drugs was to dominate his work for the rest of his life. His beliefs found expression in both fiction (Time Must Have a Stop, 1944 and Island, 1962) and non-fiction (The Perennial Philosophy, 1945, Grey Eminence, 1941 and the famous account of his first mescalin experience, The Doors of Perception, 1954. Huxley died in California on 22nd November 1963.

与1984相比,这个世界似乎要美好的多,人们不需要压抑自己的欲望,可以尽可能的作乐。是个幸福的世界,但是又很恐怖,因为很多世界观是我们接受不了了,没有父母,没有亲人,没有家庭,没有婚姻,没有爱。人们只是做着自己该做的和想做的。人是被按照需要创在出来的,而且千篇...

阿道司.赫胥黎在其经典著作《重返美丽新世界》的结尾里,简要地描述了实施“关于自由的教育”的必要性。或许由于赫胥黎对未来持悲观看法,这一终章给人的感觉是:自由价值的失败不可避免,其捍卫者所能做的,仅仅是拖延失败的来临,以及以“平静的良心”(欧里庇得斯语)拒绝在...

最初了解到《美丽新世界》,是在初中时读的《科幻世界》。后来读《娱乐至死》,波兹曼不止一次提到本书,促成了我对其阅读的机会。第一次阅读本书是在大学时代,距今也7、8年了。当时的震撼至今难忘,但也留下了诸多困惑和不解。在那时写下的书评最后,我曾写下一连串疑问: “...

一直没有看到过这本书的中文版,也许是托了去年那本《娱乐至死》的福,重庆出版社在新近推出的一套名为经典重现的丛书中,收录了这本书的中译本。这套丛书还收录了一些在西方读者心目中地位甚高,但编者认为被中国读者忽略的文学作品,比如已出的《秘密花园》和《华氏451》,...

根本主题应该是超验的“自由意志”到底存不存在。在自由的前提下去看是一种洗脑,但如果意识不是超验的,这个新世界就没什么毛病。在做出价值判断的瞬间我们已经被我们所接受的自由之人性、天然之意识的概念洗脑了不是吗?

看完Ch 1觉得可以给4星. 全看完觉得也就至多4星... "文明与野蛮". 事实上依照功用去设定"机器"的能力和属性是完全没有问题的. 关键就在于从道德上我们是否可以在人这个躯壳中剥去"意志"这种东西使"低种姓人"降维成为"机器". 但人和机器的界限到底在哪里? 最后还有一点, 影响我对这个故事打分的很重要一点, 故事后半程的发展, 尤其体现出统治者太笨.

常读常新,尤其是在伦敦读这本书更觉有趣。
