具體描述
This fascinating exchange between two of the most prominent figures in contemporary culture, Daniel Barenboim, Music Director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the Deutsche Staatsoper Berlin, and Edward W. Said, the eminent literary critic and scholar and a leading expert on the Middle East, grew out of the acclaimed Carnegie Hall Talks. A unique and impassioned discussion about politics and culture, it touches on many diverse subjects: the importance of a sense of place; the differences between writing prose and music; the conductors Wilhelm Fürtwangler and Arturo Toscanini; Beethoven as the greatest sonata composer; the difficulty of playing Wagner; the sound at Bayreuth; the writers Balzac, Dickens, and Adorno; the importance of great teachers; and the power of culture to transcend all national and political differences——something they both witnessed when they brought together young Arab and Israeli musicians to play at Weimar in 1999.
Although Barenboim and Said have very different points of view, they act as catalysts for each other. The originality of their ideas makes this a book that is both accessible and compelling for anyone who is interested in the culture of the twenty-first century.

評分有一回吃素食自助餐，同桌的还有一位汉学研究生，颤栗兄说起钱钟书先生有一句话，叫“东海西海，心理攸同”。（钱钟书：《〈谈艺录〉序》，《谈艺录》，中华书局，1984年版，第1页。）这个心怎么译？颤栗兄试译为temperament。这个“心”到底同不同，我们不断地问自己。 关于...
評分 評分萨义德与巴伦博依姆（一个主要面对文字，一个主要面对声音），在他们的交谈中，常常会传递给我一种感受——当文字与声音相遇时，其表现力总是败下阵来。文字总是有太多的意图，与音乐相比，缺乏最直接的神秘感。这种落差感，甚至在同样地使用语言而以不同方式（文化/文...
