The Czech writer Milan Kundera, b. Apr. 1, 1929, has lived in France since 1975, persuaded to self-exile by the censoring or suppression of his work by the government of his native country. Kundera has long denied any political motivation in his writings, however. His work is always humorous, skeptical, and fundamentally pessimistic in describing the universal human condition, whether under Communism or elsewhere. The Book of Laughter and Forgetting (1979; Eng. trans., 1980) is his most celebrated novel. Other highly regarded works include The Joke (1967; Eng. trans., 1982); Laughable Loves, a collection of short stories originally published in the 1960s (Eng. trans., 1974); Life Is Elsewhere (1969; Eng. trans., 1974); and The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1984; Eng. trans., 1984). In The Art of the Novel (1988), a collection of essays, Kundera repeats his conviction that the novel must be "autonomous," created independent of any system of political belief.
Milan Kundera's new collection of essays is a passionate defence of art in an era that, he argues, no longer values art or beauty. With the same dazzling mix of emotion and idea that characterises his novels he illuminates the art and artists who remain important to him and whose work helps us better understand the world. An astute and brilliant reader of fiction, Kundera applies these same gifts to the reading of Francis Bacon's paintings, Leoš Janáček's music, the film of Federico Fellini, as well as to the novels of Philip Roth, Dostoevsky and Gabriel García Márquez, among others. He also takes up challenge of restoring to their rightful place the works of major writers such as Anatole France and Curzio Malaparte whohae fallen into obscurity.
Milan Kundera's signature themes of memory and forgetting , the expericence of exile, and his spirited championing of modernist art mark these essays. Art, he argues, is what we have to cleave to in the face of evil, against the expression of the darker side of human nature. Elegant, startlingly original and provocative, "Encounter" follows Kundera's essay Collections, "The Art of the Nove;", "Testaments Betrayed" and "The Curtain"
阔别文坛四年之后,米兰•昆德拉推出了他的新作,也是他的第四部随笔集《相遇》。不久前的上海书展上,译文出版社将这部作品的中文版呈现在读者面前。在《相遇》的首发式上,本书的译者、台湾翻译家尉迟秀在介绍台湾人对昆德拉作品的评价时,用了一个有趣的词汇——昆腔。腔...
评分《相遇》里的米兰·昆德拉,依然是那个久违的小说家,一个将文学和艺术的本质讲述得越来越轻盈的小说家。在意大利,卡尔维诺曾经在《未来千年文学备忘录》中向我们这个刚刚开始的千年建议,将轻盈(lightness)作为未来文学的首要价值;在法国,昆德拉也一如既往地推崇文学中...

评分這本米蘭昆德拉的散文. 以人物為主題. 談繪畫. 談文學. 談音樂. 談詩歌. 談歷史. 談政治... 相較於他過去的小說. 這類散文式的文本似少了些美學上的動人姿態. 但卻更直接而完整地呈現出真正的昆德拉面貌.... 也可以說. 這本書是他一種智性與感性的現場展演.... 他總是能以那獨...
评分1 这本《相遇》是昆德拉的第四本随笔集,与上三本一样,除了小说之外,里面也夹杂着相当一部分乐评,这里仍然有他最喜欢谈论的贝多芬、斯特拉文斯基、勋伯格和雅纳切克,他一如既往的谈论他们的美学和人格,并把这些谈论与小说理念相对比。他把音乐与小说评论结合起来。这既像...
