Ursula K. Le Guin published twenty-two novels, eleven volumes of short stories, four collections of essays, twelve books for children, six volumes of poetry and four of translation, and has received many awards: Hugo, Nebula, National Book Award, PEN-Malamud, etc. Her recent publications include the novel Lavinia, an essay collection, Cheek by Jowl, and The Wild Girls. She lived in Portland, Oregon.
She was known for her treatment of gender (The Left Hand of Darkness, The Matter of Seggri), political systems (The Telling, The Dispossessed) and difference/otherness in any other form. Her interest in non-Western philosophies was reflected in works such as "Solitude" and The Telling but even more interesting are her imagined societies, often mixing traits extracted from her profound knowledge of anthropology acquired from growing up with her father, the famous anthropologist, Alfred Kroeber. The Hainish Cycle reflects the anthropologist's experience of immersing themselves in new strange cultures since most of their main characters and narrators (Le Guin favoured the first-person narration) are envoys from a humanitarian organization, the Ekumen, sent to investigate or ally themselves with the people of a different world and learn their ways.
Shevek, a brilliant physicist, decides to take action. he will seek answers, question the unquestionable, and attempt to tear down the walls of hatred that have isolated his planet of anarchists from the rest of the civilized universe. To do this dangerous task will mean giving up his family and possibly his life. Shevek must make the unprecedented journey to the utopian mother planet, Anarres, to challenge the complex structures of life and living, and ignite the fires of change.
我很好奇竟然有人认为这本书写得是社会主义(共产主义)与资本主义的争论。如果真的是这样的话那这本书连两星都不值。 这本书的成书年代是上世纪七十年代初,正值苏联最强大的年代。而在经历了二十年的高速发展,开展了各种各样的一大堆运动之后,美国社会展开了对社会制度的...
评分回旋于笔尖的两个世界——关于《一无所有》 小者/文 在写下这篇评论的同时,也为了表达对勒古恩的敬仰。近年来,勒古恩渐渐地取代了特里·普拉切特和亚当斯·亚当斯成为了我心目中最好的科幻作家。 《一无所有》,从文章的副标题说起:“不确定的乌托邦”(A...
评分1974年的作品,那种双线发展时序倒错的叙事手法后来被大量复制(尤以美剧为甚)。 无错,勒瑰恩对资本主义社会主义都有批评,但两种还是有些许分别;她对资本主义的批判是淋漓畅快的带着喜感,对社会主义的批判却是带着恨铁不成钢的怜悯。 说到底,两种主义其实都在推销它们没...
评分你知道乌托邦的来源吗?我想初中的历史或者政治课上有过介绍英国空想天下大同者莫尔的《乌托邦》,那时候我记得还略代介绍过18世纪三大空想主义者圣西门,傅立叶,欧文。而这都不是最早的,西方最早的要追溯到柏拉图时代,这位伟大的哲学家众多著作中有部很著名的《理想国》,是...
评分"You cannot buy the revolution, you cannot make the revolution, you can only be the revolution. It is in your spirit, or it is nowhere."
评分dull and wordy with plain prose,屡次想弃,还是坚持读完了,看不下去的时候就去goodreads上看人吐槽这本书,吐槽都比这书来劲。这不是科幻小说,而是一本披着科幻外皮表明作者政治立场的小说,所有的角色都是为了阐述作者的政治理念而服务,因此显得非常扁平化,主角的心路历程可以简化为:共产主义国家禁锢我的思想我要去资本主义国家呼吸新鲜空气——你们资本主义的propertarian都是骗子你们根本不共产——地球人带我回家,作者关于Anarres的构想还可以,有些论点也挺有趣,但我是来看科幻的,不是看一群人争论体制利弊的,如果我想了解无政府主义社会主义意识形态我为何不去看论文文献呢?
评分如果作者不去做价值判断就好了
评分一个女作家能把一个科幻小说的政治,人性,社会方面都写得这么到位,真是厉害啊
评分跟Left Hand of Darkness比,这本差了很多。
