What makes a work of literature good or bad? How freely can the reader interpret it? Could a nursery rhyme like Baa Baa Black Sheep be full of concealed loathing, resentment and aggression? In this accessible, delightfully entertaining book, Terry Eagleton addresses these intriguing questions and a host of others. How to Read Literature is the book of choice for students new to the study of literature and for all other readers interested in deepening their understanding and enriching their reading experience. In a series of brilliant analyses, Eagleton shows how to read with due attention to tone, rhythm, texture, syntax, allusion, ambiguity, and other formal aspects of literary works. He also examines broader questions of character, plot, narrative, the creative imagination, the meaning of fictionality, and the tension between what works of literature say and what they show. Unfailingly authoritative and cheerfully opinionated, the author provides useful commentaries on classicism, Romanticism, modernism and postmodernism along with spellbinding insights into a huge range of authors, from Shakespeare and Jane Austen to Samuel Beckett and J. K. Rowling.
LSL/文 伊格尔顿,这位当今西方马克思主义理论界的三驾马车之一,在写完《理论之后》之后,对理论感到深深的厌倦,可惯性仍驱使着他不停地写出一本又一本理论著作,以维系“文学理论家”的头衔。伊格尔顿连“文学理论家”的头衔也感到深深的厌倦,就如他对长久以来背负的“政...
評分关于怎么阅读文学的书,市面上已经有不少,多一本不算多。特里·伊格尔顿老爷子就此自嘲:“文学分析这个行当,就像穿着木屐跳舞,快要跳不动了。本书企图借助对文学形式和技巧的细察,在驰援的队伍里凑个数”。这本书关注文学的开头、人物、叙事、解读、价值五个方面。这些是...

在書店一個下午看完瞭。新的理解有不少。應該買迴來做筆記。有趣的地方是哈利波特之後展開來談的那一段。我知道的音節較長的名字高貴poor Jon Snow
评分一把年紀瞭還這麼毒舌
评分作者圍繞 openings, character, narrative, interpretation, value 寫瞭五篇短文,風格較隨意,不時拿特朗普之類的人開涮。不過,想瞭解這些概念,申丹老師的 敘事、文體與潛文本,似乎更值得推薦。
评分伊格爾頓太有意思瞭,毒舌而風趣。本書很適閤文學入門,舉的例子都很大眾,感覺好於《Aspects of Novel》。Opening部分意料之中地提瞭Austen,意料之外地沒提《雙城記》和《局外人》。Value部分很《二十世紀西方文學理論》。
评分"The realist novel tends to grasp individual lives in terms of histories, communities, kinship and institutions. It is in these frameworks that the self is seen as embedded. There are many things that go into the making of a realist character." Perhaps this this the reason why I enjoy reading realistic works most.
