In this series of essays, based on his 1993 Reith Lectures, Edward Said explores what it means to be an intellectual today. It is, he argues, the intellectual's role to represent a message or view not only to, but for, a public, and to do so as an outsider - someone who cannot be co-opted by a government or corporation. Interweaving literature, history and philosophy, Said describes and demonstrates how the intellectual must remain a dissenter, never putting solidarity before criticism, and speak from the margins for both the people and the issues which are routinely forgotten or ignored.
Edward Said is well known for speaking his mind on controversial issues. In this brief lecture series, he goes beyond speaking up for a cause or a social group to defend the act of speaking up itself. Hence the double significance of the title, Representations of the Intellectual: In representing an idea to the public, the intellectual also represents an image of what it means to be an intellectual. Positioning himself against the "expert" who provides "'objective' advice for pay" (to a government, corporation, or the media), Said articulates a vision of the intellectual "as exile and marginal, as amateur, and as the author of a language that tries to speak truth to power," by "bearing witness" to forgotten, ignored, or suppressed stories. Appreciating the postmodern anxieties that may arise from his bold claims about universal moral principles and the neat separation of truth from power, Said honestly confronts the problem of objectivity. He illustrates his idea of the intellectual with historical, literary, and personal examples, candidly confiding his heroes and villains, and revealing the beliefs and passions behind his own life's work.

For the secular intellectual, those gods always fail.
評分Such a powerful account on the meaning and role of intellectual. Intellectuals are resistant, often marginalized, and pursue what is just and right that arises from their deepest convictions. This book is worth multiple readings, very incisive and thought provoking.

同样是对启蒙以来西方主流价值观的反思,杜维明的重点在于对工具理性个人主义的反思,因而极力倡导从儒家传统中打捞文化的精髓,以“己所不欲,不施于人”的恕道和“己欲利而利人,己欲达而达人”的仁道,重新构建全球化轴心时代的全球伦理,力图重提集体(全球村)精神。而面...
評分萨义德的知识分子 一个人要具有怎样的特征,才可以被称作“知识分子”?对于这个问题,萨义德的回答截然不同于辞典上的那种“正确然而无用”的解释。甚至可以说,他所给出的知识分子的定义,全然与知识无涉。在他那里,知识分子其实是一种态度、一种品质,更是一种精神。 萨...
評分韦伯的〈学术与志业〉之后,知识人的地位被分离出来。与民粹主义所谓的“两张皮”理论完全相反,知识人被放在了与主流社会和建制的辩证对立面。赛义德的这本小书本来是作为英国知识界享有盛誉的Reith Lectures出版的,堪称赛义德被自我境遇激励所写出的最佳辩护词。他主张知识...
