Umberto Eco is the author of four bestselling novels, The Name of The Rose, Foucault's Pendulum, The Island of The Day Before and, most recently, Baudolino. His collections of essays include Five Moral Pieces, Kant and the Platypus, Serendipities, Travels In Hyperreality, and How To Travel With a Salmon and Other Essays. A Professor of Semiotics at the University of Bologna, Umberto Eco lives in Italy.
Beauty is neither a history of art, nor a history of aesthetics but Umberto Eco draws on the histories of both these disciplines to define the ideas of beauty that have informed sensibilities from the classical world to modern times. In terms of form and style, Beauty has been conceived for a vast and diversified readership: taking in painting, sculpture, architecture, film, photography, the decorative arts, novels and poems, it offers a rich and intelligent panorama of this huge subject. It traces the philosophy of aesthetics through history and examines some of the many treatises that have sought to define it. Beauty is Umberto Eco at his most captivating and eclectic: we read not only of Botticelli and Michelangelo but of how the fashion of the 1960s owes much to ancient Egyptian dress, and how ancient Roman and eighteenth-century hairstyles have much in common. It makes the familiar new, and sheds a brilliant new light on the unfamiliar. Illustrated in full colour throughout and produced to the highest standards, Beauty is an indispensable book.
什么是美? 作为一个立志未来成为土豪的人,我时常在思索一个问题,坐在我宝马车里哭泣的女生到底有多漂亮,想到这里哈喇子都出来了。可单单漂亮已经过时了,会被人说成花瓶,现在流行的是美,是气质。什么是美?夏天里的超短裙,冬天里的黑丝袜? 读完艾柯的书之后才重拾正确...
評分我肯定Umberto Eco在艺术界、艺术史界是无名的。 举个例:在写到巴洛克时期时:作者文中一句:哥白尼与开普勒重新设计的苍穹下,天体之间的关系愈来愈复杂。他是不是想把此复杂和他认为巴洛克线条的繁复关联?把洛可可风格画家之一的 Watteau的《Pilgrimage to Cythera》与巴...
評分意大利学者翁贝托·埃科的《美的历史》在我桌上放着,灯光下,精美的印刷却让图文版本的反光,令人觉得刺眼。 我在好友言说翻译的鄙陋,以及与之相反的台湾网友的竭力推荐之后,最后决定还是买了一本,我要用自己的心灵去感触,这本我一直、还将继续渴望着它直接从意大利...
評分这本书本身是一本非常好的书,让我对西方美学历史有比较全面和真切的理解。 翻译者,我想,也是希望用“配得上”如此重要著作的词汇和句法来翻译出那种厚重和深刻。可是,似乎有点儿过犹不及了。阅读的过程中经常会被一些艰涩的词汇和古怪的句法阻挡,放缓阅读速度。
評分刚开始翻看,之所以说翻看,是因为第一印象这是本图书。 图片真是精美,仅仅这个就算是值回票价了。 图像只有精制地复制,才能更准确地还原观感。我们到底看到的不是原画,但是那种建立在观看粗糙复制品基础上的感受,是多么地失真啊。精确的图像和粗糙的,两者有很大的区别,...
