Henry Scott Stokes is a noted journalist who has worked for both the New York Times and the London Times. He was educated at Winchester College and New College, Oxford. After graduating, he moved to Japan, where he became a journalist of the Tokyo bureau of The Times. Also around this time, he became close friends with famous Japanese author Yukio Mishima. Most recently, he has edited an anthology entitled The Kwangju Uprising: Eyewitness Press Accounts of Korea's Tiananmen. He lives in Tokyo.
Novelist, playwright, film actor, martial artist, and political commentator, Yukio Mishima (1925-1970) was arguably the most famous person in Japan at the time of his death. Henry Scott Stokes, one of Mishima's closest friends, was the only non-Japanese allowed to attend the trial of the men involved in Mishima's spectacular suicide. In this insightful and empathetic look at the writer, Stokes guides the reader through the milestones of Mishima's meteoric and eclectic career and delves into the artist's major works and themes. This biography skillfully and compassionately illuminates the achievements and disquieting ideas of a brilliant and deeply troubled man, an artist of whom Nobel Laureate Yasunari Kawabata had said, 'A writer of Mishima's caliber comes along only once every two or three hundred years.'
书极有诚意。但后半部比前半部好。因为作者60年代才第一次见到三岛本人,其后有了个人交往,写出的东西也有了实在感:三岛是可见的。而对于这位作家的前半生,作者多由作品及文献推测,但这样其实是非常不靠谱的。文字仿佛是表达意念与精神的最佳方式,却也由此可称之为最佳伪...
评分事实上我确实是不那么喜欢日本文学,这里面不包括大众文学,我们都知道的,推理和侦探小说,在当代,及至整个亚洲,日本绝对是出类拔萃的。我说的是川端康成,芥川龙之介,大江健三郎,三岛由纪夫之流,就像一部源始物语,我读了两年还在止步不前,也许我更在意的是怎样的极...
评分三岛由纪夫文风阴柔唯美,主角心理又极为极端。他的美总是与极度暴力有关,明明是撕裂的两面,却又病态地融合在一起,交织成血样樱花般的文字。 这个英俊青年被赤裸着身体捆绑在那黑树干上,他的双手高高地交叉着,捆绑双手的绳索系在树上,看不见绳结。遮掩青年裸体的,只有一...
评分首先要感谢杨博士的礼物????关于三岛本身我已经读了一些他的作品,并且对他的事迹也有过大概了解了,这本很详细的介绍了许多之前不是了解得太清楚地方。读这本书很有趣的一个阅读体验是,边读会对之前一些已经初步形成但没有深入系统的总结的概念进行思考和归纳,然后读到后面...
评分差不多二十年前,便着迷于一句话——“生似夏花之绚烂,死似秋叶之静美”。出自泰戈尔的它们,因了三岛由纪夫这个名字,深透地印入脑海。尽管,除了《金阁寺》,再没有读过他的任何文字。 《美与暴烈——三岛由纪夫的生与死》,作者亨利·斯各特·斯托克斯,一名英国记者,在...
