Brave New World

Brave New World pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025

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.

英剧《黑镜》中就刻画的是这个美妙的新世界。人们穿着相同的衣服,生活在高科技的虚拟房间里,每天通过踩单车换取点数,除了踩单车外,人们就只呆在房间里,用虚拟货币收看电视,更换自己的虚拟形象,这简直就是《娱乐至死》和《美妙新世界》的结合体。 回到《美妙新世...

首先说,看这本书来自neil.postman的《娱乐至死》,后来才知道其与奥威尔的《1984》,扎米亚京的《我们》并称为反乌托邦三部曲,在postman看来《美丽新世界》和《1984》描绘的是两个相反的未来,而在读过此书后,我觉得这种相反反而只是表面上的。内在来看,他们描绘的都是又精...

这版让人特别抓狂就是为了减少人名的讽刺性把很对一看就是有所指的人名变成了音译,以让人减少联想。没看过其他版本的翻译,借助百科,还原人名指代和暗含之意。 柏纳德·马克斯,Bernard Marx,这个名字是George Bernard Shaw(乔治·萧伯纳和Karl Marx(卡尔·马克思)。萧...

近期最佳閱讀體驗。前半部是Huxley的帶刺嘲諷,越炫目越可笑。Hypnopaedia、Ford、Bokanovskified、soma、pneumatic,這些詞注定與aeon共存。這是Comfortably Numb的世界。最有深意的是對親人關係的解構,對“一個人獨有”的嘲弄。到Savage Reservation之後,開始看到轉機,看到“Dictator”的沒落-- 顛覆瞭顛覆,看到Bernard的Vicissitude(悲哀的人性,容易被侵蝕的靈魂),看到Lenina動人外貌下的無知淺薄,(Impudent Strumpet!最殘酷的還是John難以控製的情感與貞潔的較量)。一個奇怪的設定是Mustafa的“人格分裂”。結尾的鞭打是高潮,革命還是沒有發生。難過,淚崩。

根本主題應該是超驗的“自由意誌”到底存不存在。在自由的前提下去看是一種洗腦,但如果意識不是超驗的,這個新世界就沒什麼毛病。在做齣價值判斷的瞬間我們已經被我們所接受的自由之人性、天然之意識的概念洗腦瞭不是嗎?

常讀常新,尤其是在倫敦讀這本書更覺有趣。

赫胥黎的文筆真厲害,感染力極強。這種書沒有被禁真是奇跡。

太牛瞭,community identity stability。 最後群眾的"we want the whip",令人脊背發涼。
