Tony Judt was educated at King's College, Cambridge and the Ecole Normale Superieure, Paris, and taught at Cambridge, Oxford, and Berkeley. He was the Erich Maria Remarque Professor of European Studies at New York University; in addition to Director of the Remarque Institute, which is dedicated to the study of Europe and which he founded in 1995. The author or editor of fourteen books, Professor Judt was a frequent contributor to The New York Review of Books, the Times Literary Supplement, the New Republic, the New York Times and many other journals in Europe and the US. Professor Judt is the author of Ill Fares the Land, Reappraisals: Reflections on the Forgotten Twentieth Century, and Postwar: A History of Europe Since 1945, which was one of the New York Times Book Review's Ten Best Books of 2005, the winner of the Council on Foreign Relations Arthur Ross Book Award, and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. He died in August, 2010 at the age of sixty-two
"It might be thought the height of poor taste to ascribe good fortune to a healthy man with a young family struck down at the age of sixty by an incurable degenerative disorder from which he must shortly die. But there is more than one sort of luck. To fall prey to a motor neuron disease is surely to have offended the Gods at some point, and there is nothing more to be said. But if you must suffer thus, better to have a well-stocked head..." (Tony Judt). "The Memory Chalet" is a memoir unlike any you have ever read before. Each essay charts some experience or remembrance of the past through the sieve of Tony Judt's prodigious mind. His youthful love of a particular London bus route evolves into a reflection on public civility and interwar urban planning. Memories of the 1968 student riots of Paris meander through the divergent sex politics of Europe, before concluding that his generation 'was a revolutionary generation, but missed the revolution'. A series of roadtrips across America lead not just to an appreciation of American history, but to an eventual acquisition of citizenship. Foods and trains and long-lost smells all compete for Judt's attention; but for us, he has forged his reflections into an elegant arc of analysis. All as simply and beautifully arranged as a Swiss chalet o a reassuring refuge deep in the mountains of memory.
总要做点事情来度过艰难的第二百天。于是敲了半天字。 身份的复杂是朱特的一大优势,让他的视野不受很多难以意识到的观念的左右。祖父母从沙皇俄国移民到比利时,缺乏传统意义上的身份意识;父亲出生于安特卫普。外祖父、外祖母来自俄国和罗马尼亚,对这两个国家却并不了解,移...

评分虽然《战后欧洲史》的电子版就在硬盘里摆着,但看的第一本托尼•朱特的书,还是他这本文学性质颇浓的自传。作者是著名史家和公共知识分子,但这自传却是非常私人化的回忆、感慨与剖白,诚恳坦率,充满声音与滋味。很多地方,朱特那种“气人的孤高”简直溢出纸面,却神奇地并...
