Italo Calvino was not only a prolific master of fiction, he was also an uncanny reader of literature. Why Read the Classics? is the most comprehensive collection of Calvino's literary criticism available in English, accounting for the enduring importance to our lives of crucial writers of the Western canon. Here - spanning more than two millennia, from antiquity to postmodernism - are thirty-six ruminations on the writers, poets, and scientists who meant most to Calvino at different stages of his life.
Italo Calvino's superb storytelling gifts earned him international renown and a reputation as "one of the world's best fabulists" (New York Times Book Review). He is the author of numerous works of fiction, as well as essays, criticism, and literary anthologies. Born in Cuba in 1923, Calvino was raised in Italy, where he lived most of his life. At the time of his death, in Siena in 1985, he was the most-translated contemporary Italian writer.

评分在很多人都遗忘了卡尔维诺之后,最近又很欣喜的可以在书店发现新版的卡尔维诺上市了。不过相比印刷字体的篇幅来说,是略微有些贵的了。 新的三本是看不见的城市、帕洛马尔和为什么读经典。 我也不太清楚为什么出版社独独挑选出了这三本,过去的译林出的卡尔维诺的5本精装的版本...
评分沉下去是为了浮上来 ——为读经典而作 在金色的波浪中,在玫瑰色的天空下,我就像一只小虾,或更像一只小鸟,在她的脚下嬉戏,她具有一如泉水般清澈透明的魅力,更有一种叫人无法抗拒的诱...
评分由于跟过去专业有关,购吴小龙《少年中国学会研究》(上海三联,2006年)。作者提到自己1992年在复旦附近用20元购得《少年中国》影印本,1998年在北大看到已经是1200元一套。原来贩书是一份很有前途的职业,跟贩毒有的一比。上个世纪末上海古籍书店也曾有大批影印民国报刊,价...
