具体描述

Conservative historian Paul Johnson wears his ideology proudly on his sleeve in this often ruthless dissection of the thinkers and artists who (in his view) have shaped modern Western culture, having replaced some 200 years ago "the old clerisy as the guides and mentors of mankind." Taking on the likes of Karl Marx, Bertrand Russell, Lillian Hellman, and Noam Chomsky in turn, Johnson examines one idol after another and finds them all to have feet of clay. In his account, for instance, Ernest Hemingway emerges as an artistic hero who labored endlessly to forge a literary style unmistakably his own, but also as a deeply flawed man whose concern for the perfect phrase did not carry over to a concern for the women who loved him. Gossipy and sharply opinionated, Johnson's essay in cultural history spares no one.

Does it really matter that Henrik Ibsen was vain and arrogant, that Jean-Paul Sartre was incontinent? In Johnson's view, it does: these all-too-human foibles disqualify them, and other thinkers, from presuming to criticize the shortcomings of society. "Beware intellectuals," he concludes (though, given the subjects of his book, it seems he means intellectuals only of the left). "Not only should they be kept well away from the levers of power, they should also be objects of particular suspicion when they seek to offer collective advice." Whether one agrees or not, Johnson's profiles are frequently amusing and illuminating, as when he suggests that the only proletarian Karl Marx ever knew in person was the poor maid who worked for him for decades and was never paid, except in room and board, for her labors.

读后感

保罗·约翰逊以近乎八卦的方式,更多的是通过对私生活的描写,对历史上的一些大师进行了褒贬(当然主要是贬斥和批判)。让我们来看看这个大师的名单:卢梭、雪莱、列夫·托尔斯泰、萨特、威尔逊、高兰茨、海明威……每个人都有专门一章,捎带着被品评的,还有拜伦、狄德罗等。 ...

这本书其实就是历史学家写的八卦野史,但其震撼人心之处在于主角都是我们常以为“伟光正”的著名知识分子。保罗约翰逊为我们揭示了这些整日高喊“正义”,“道德”,“博爱”的知识名流,其实个人品质并不高尚:卢梭忘恩负义,雪莱不守信用,托尔斯泰专断残暴,罗素喜欢胡说八...

之前看了两章,今晚继续,保罗·约翰逊的【知识分子】,眼中一片悲凉。作为文字的生产者,他们都热爱抽象的人,但大多并不能延伸到任何一个具体的人,当然,除了自己。他们热衷与观察这个社会和之间的人,包括自己,带着浓厚的主观色彩,不可否认,正是这些主观的东西让他们的...
