Acclaimed novelist Francine Prose notes that we are obsessed with food and diet. And what is this obsession with food except a struggle between sin and virtue, overeating and self-control--a struggle with the fierce temptations of gluttony. In Gluttony, Francine Prose serves up a marvellous banquet of witty and engaging observations on this most delicious of deadly sins. She traces how our notions of gluttony have evolved along with our ideas about salvation and damnation, health and illness, life and death. Offering a lively smorgasbord that ranges from Augustine's Confessions and Chaucer's Pardoner's Tale, to Petronius's Satyricon and Dante's Inferno, she shows that gluttony was in medieval times a deeply spiritual matter, but today we have transformed gluttony from a sin into an illness--it is the horrors of cholesterol and the perils of red meat that we demonize. Indeed, the modern take on gluttony is that we overeat out of compulsion, self-destructiveness, or to avoid intimacy and social contact. But gluttony, Prose reminds us, is also an affirmation of pleasure and of passion. She ends the book with a discussion of M.F.K. Fisher's idiosyncratic defense of one of the great heroes of gluttony, Diamond Jim Brady, whose stomach was six times normal size. "The broad, shiny face of the glutton," Prose writes, "has been--and continues to be--the mirror in which we see ourselves, our hopes and fears, our darkest dreams and deepest desires." Never have we delved more deeply into this mirror than in this insightful and stimulating book.
《贪吃》很薄的一本小书,花了个把小时就读完了,作者多次引用罗马教皇格雷戈里关于贪吃的定义“太频繁、太精致、太奢侈、太贪婪、太多”。贪吃是唯一一种后果可见的表现在身体上面的罪恶,但这宗罪一点也不像,比如说令人厌恶、更可耻的懒惰,贪婪和嫉妒那么缺乏美感,贪吃也...
评分说实话,在这种秋高气爽风和日丽阳光灿烂又凉风阵阵的天气里,有点不太适合写这个东西。倒不是说可以要追求什么深沉阴郁,只是好像并不是那么轻松快乐的话题。 不是什么时候都会认真刻意的去想到“吃”这个话题,但是一边听着窗外的细雨淅淅沥沥密密麻麻的下个不停一边把吉野...
