The year is 1327. Franciscans in a wealthy Italian abbey are suspected of heresy, and Brother William of Baskerville arrives to investigate. When his delicate mission is suddenly overshadowed by seven bizarre deaths, Brother William turns detective. He collects evidence, deciphers secret symbols and coded manuscripts, and digs into the eerie labyrinth of the abbey where extraordinary things are happening under the cover of night. A spectacular popular and critical success, "The Name of the Rose" is not only a narrative of a murder investigation but an astonishing chronicle of the Middle Ages. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
Umberto Eco (born 5 January 1932) is an Italian medievalist, semiotician, philosopher, literary critic and novelist, best known for his novel The Name of the Rose, an intellectual mystery combining semiotics in fiction, biblical analysis, medieval studies and literary theory. His 1988 novel Foucault's Pendulum has been described as a "thinking person's Da Vinci Code". Eco is President of the Scuola Superiore di Studi Umanistici, University of Bologna. He has also written academic texts, children’s books and many essays. Eco was born in the city of Alessandria in the region of Piedmont. His father, Giulio, was an accountant before the government called upon him to serve in three wars. During World War II, Umberto and his mother, Giovanna, moved to a small village in the Piedmontese mountainside. Eco received a Salesian education, and he has made references to the order and its founder in his works and interviews. His family name is supposedly an acronym of ex caelis oblatus (Latin: a gift from the heavens), which was given to his grandfather (a foundling) by a city official. His father was the son of a family with thirteen children, and urged Umberto to become a lawyer, but he entered the University of Turin in order to take up medieval philosophy and literature, writing his thesis on Thomas Aquinas and earning his BA in philosophy in 1954. During this time, Eco left the Roman Catholic Church after a crisis of faith. After this, Eco worked as a cultural editor for the state broadcasting station Radiotelevisione Italiana (RAI) and also lectured at the University of Turin (1956–64). A group of avant-garde artists—painters, musicians, writers—whom he had befriended at RAI (Gruppo 63) became an important and influential component in Eco's future writing career. This was especially true after the publication of his first book in 1956, Il problema estetico di San Tommaso, which was an extension of his doctoral thesis. This also marked the beginning of his lecturing career at his alma mater. In September 1962, he married Renate Ramge, a German art teacher with whom he has a son and a daughter. He divides his time between an apartment in Milan and a vacation house near Rimini.
跟热销的《达芬奇密码》一样,同样是符号学用做推理,而出自意大利宗教符号学学术权威之手的这部著作,无论在宗教内涵、推理深度、学术意蕴,各方面,超过《达芬奇密码》都不止一点点。 先看过同名电影,再来啃书本,的确要轻松很多。预备用一个月的时间慢慢啃这本书。
评分此书不仅挑战推理能力,更挑战的是宗教学和哲学知识,极其混乱的中古欧洲基督教呀,没有维基百科能读懂此书的人那绝对是学者水平的。 1.”耶稣笑了吗?“从来没想过这个问题,各个福音书里的确是没有提到耶稣笑过这样一件事情。那么耶稣喜欢笑吗?中古欧洲的基督教传道士真是...
评分说实话,一个发生在七天里的侦探故事,通常只用一个小小的短篇即可写得精采、紧张、惊险、有趣,但埃科却用了五百多页来写,如果用物理学的“密度”概念来比喻一下,那这本书就象一个塞满了铁砂的皮袋。那么他到底在这里面都塞了什么使这本书象如此沉甸甸的呢?下面就是他塞进...

评分有人说,看完《玫瑰之名》再与埃科聊天,就好像面对一根波隆纳的罗马蜡烛;他才情焕发,心思缜密,是个诡谲但不狡狯的学者。 虽然这种形容跟鬼话一样,但我不得不承认,《玫瑰之名》的确是根漂亮的“波隆纳罗马蜡烛”。阅读它的最佳方式是:随便翻到一页,读下去,直到困倦。...

评分这是本高于侦探的侦探小说,Eco把文字,数学,和宗教织成了一个惊险刺激的谜。这本书我是在地铁上颠着看的。好看的我都忘了晕车。某黑夜我手执一书,做目不旁视状在等车,不一会儿,一满身酒气的黑大爷过来要钱。我摸遍全身,居然没一个钢崩,当时汗都下来了,就怕他一不小心毙了我。我哆嗦着说大爷对不起小的我今天真没钱。大爷冷笑一声说好罢,你看的啥书。我结巴着说是就是跟圣经和上帝有关的。他做愉悦状说god bless就走了。所以我要感谢Eco救了我一次。
