This book is the follow up to the previous volume On Beauty. Apparently beauty and ugliness are concepts that imply each other, and by ugliness we usually mean the opposite of beauty, so all we need do is define the first to understand the nature of the second. But the various manifestations of ugliness over the centuries are richer and more unpredictable than is commonly thought. The anthological quotations and the extraordinary illustrations in this book lead us on a surprising journey among the nightmares, terrors, and loves of almost three thousand years, where acts of rejection go hand in hand with touching gestures of compassion, and the rejection of deformity is accompanied by decadent ecstasies over the most seductive violations of all classical canons. Among demons, madmen, horrible enemies, and disquieting presences, among horrid abysses and deformities that verge on the sublime, among freaks and the living dead, we discover a vast and often unsuspected iconographic vein. So much so that, on gradually encountering in these pages the ugliness of nature, spiritual ugliness, asymmetry, disharmony, disfigurement, and the succession of things sordid, weak, vile, banal, random, arbitrary, coarse, repugnant, clumsy, horrendous, vacuous, nauseating, criminal, spectral, witchlike, satanic, repellent, disgusting, unpleasant, grotesque, abominable, odious, crude, foul, dirty, obscene, frightening, abject, monstrous, hair-raising, ugly, terrible, terrifying, revolting, repulsive, loathsome, fetid, ignoble, awkward, ghastly and indecent, the first foreign publisher to see this book exclaimed: ‘How beautiful ugliness is!’
丑的第一映像,来自小时美术课本后页那些达利的画。当时真不知道,为什么画成这样,为什么会有人要看。 丑的印象还来自于 那些类似 标准时代 的雕塑。被抽去了比例和尊严,今人生厌。 显然,我明白不了,美就是丑,丑就是美的道理。但看到作者说,再撒旦堕落前,他应该是最美...
评分“《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 评分(与《华商报》编辑我老妹的初次合作) 意大利学者翁贝托•艾柯在撰写他那本惊艳之作《美的历史》时,就专门设立了单章《怪物之美》来释解美与丑的辨证关系:“所有文化皆有其美的观念,亦有其丑的观念……在西方人眼中,其他文化的拜物与面具是可怖、畸形之物,当地人则可...
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,...
