完美
评分downside: 材料和分析仅限于西方世界
评分美丑观念随时代及文化而变化,价值观也一样。比如歌星搁古代就是卖唱的,演员搁以前就是卖笑的,什么琴棋书画唱歌跳舞现在叫才艺,以前只有青楼妓女才学。
评分方所看到的原版大书里面的图文比我读的小中文译本震撼很多,整个压抑感爆炸。不过文献好多,全英文我也是啃不动的。。。有得有失,译本把很多原著文献翻得不够味道是一定,不过单看译本多而不少还是有收获
评分完美
Umberto Eco is a world-renowned writer of fiction, essays, and academic treatises and is undoubtedly one of the finest authors of our time. Among his best-selling novels are The Name of the Rose, Foucault’s Pendulum, The Island of the Day Before, and Baudolino.
In the mold of his acclaimed History of Beauty, renowned cultural critic Umberto Eco’s On Ugliness is an exploration of the monstrous and the repellant in visual culture and the arts. What is the voyeuristic impulse behind our attraction to the gruesome and the horrible? Where does the magnetic appeal of the sordid and the scandalous come from? Is ugliness also in the eye of the beholder? Eco’s encyclopedic knowledge and captivating storytelling skills combine in this ingenious study of the Ugly, revealing that what we often shield ourselves from and shun in everyday life is what we’re most attracted to subliminally. Topics range from Milton’s Satan to Goethe’s Mephistopheles; from witchcraft and medieval torture tactics to martyrs, hermits, and penitents; from lunar births and disemboweled corpses to mythic monsters and sideshow freaks; and from Decadentism and picturesque ugliness to the tacky, kitsch, and camp, and the aesthetics of excess and vice. With abundant examples of painting and sculpture ranging from ancient Greek amphorae to Bosch, Brueghel, and Goya among others, and with quotations from the most celebrated writers and philosophers of each age, this provocative discussion explores in-depth the concepts of evil, depravity, and darkness in art and literature.
“《丑的历史》为休闲读者提供了大量信息,也为那些希望深入探讨这个课题的人指引了门径。” 书的封底用到了《选择》杂志的一句评价。我认为还是比较中肯的。 这本书从古典时期谈起,一直讲到了现当代。书中所用的材料主要来自于文学和艺术作品,以及一些谈到丑的文艺或者美学...
评分基本靠看图。旁征博引扎实有趣。比如: “你能为我解释吗,我们大便的时候,为什么经常端详我们的排泄物?”伊索解释说:“从前有个国王的儿子,他因为生活安逸又奢华,大多时间坐在那里大便。有一回,他坐在那里,忘了自己在做什么,坐太久,把他的常识也给拉掉了。从那天起,...
评分“媚俗也一直被用来形容希特勒、墨索里尼政权下那些歌功颂德,要全民欢迎的艺术。” 美的对立为丑,然而审美与审丑皆有共性,存在许多不确定因素,翁贝托・艾柯写《美的历史》后,再作《丑的历史》,在书前《导论》里说:“每个世纪都有哲学家和艺术家提出‘美’的定...
评分看完挺震撼,除去政治因素,整个东方文化也总是露美遮丑,像我这样的85后接触到的历史文化其实是剥去了很多原汁原味的进化细节,被新的审美观重包过的。确实需要从内心把丑作为美不可分割的一部分来接纳。 我第一次见到此书是在机场候机厅,很吸引我,但价格太贵。...
评分本来以为要把纸质书背到美国去读,结果还是赶在出发之前的最后一天看完了艾柯的《丑的历史》。一开始以为这本书是关于艺术史的,后来才知道它实际上是一本哲学+美学著作。加上自己时间比较紧张,中译本的翻译也不是特别好,所以算看了个半懂不懂吧。个人认为这本书比较猎奇,记...
