Winter, a cemetery, Shylock. In this provocative and profound interpretation of “The Merchant of Venice,” Shylock is juxtaposed against his present-day counterpart in the character of art dealer and conflicted father Simon Strulovitch. With characteristic irony, Jacobson presents Shylock as a man of incisive wit and passion, concerned still with questions of identity, parenthood, anti-Semitism and revenge. While Strulovich struggles to reconcile himself to his daughter Beatrice's “betrayal” of her family and heritage – as she is carried away by the excitement of Manchester high society, and into the arms of a footballer notorious for giving a Nazi salute on the field – Shylock alternates grief for his beloved wife with rage against his own daughter's rejection of her Jewish upbringing. Culminating in a shocking twist on Shylock’s demand for the infamous pound of flesh, Jacobson’s insightful retelling examines contemporary, acutely relevant questions of Jewish identity while maintaining a poignant sympathy for its characters and a genuine spiritual kinship with its antecedent—a drama which Jacobson himself considers to be “the most troubling of Shakespeare’s plays for anyone, but, for an English novelist who happens to be Jewish, also the most challenging.”
霍華德·雅各布森 Howard Jacobson,英國猶太裔小說傢、專欄作傢,在劍橋大學塞爾文學院任教,自詡為 “猶太裔的簡·奧斯丁”。他的主要作品包括:《強大的華爾澤》《此刻誰抱歉?》《卡魯奇之夜》(入圍2006年布剋奬長名單)、《愛情迫害狂》等。2010年憑喜劇 小說《芬剋勒問題》摘得布剋奬。
霍華德·雅各布森最擅長描寫人們在自我身份認同問題上的掙紮,文風幽默睿智,卻力道十足,辛辣諷刺。選定改寫《威尼斯商人》後遭友人嘲笑,覺得他會自砸招牌。但他堅持,並錶示一定要獨闢蹊徑,讓劇中的猶太人夏洛剋發齣不同的聲音。
柯勒律治在《关于莎士比亚的演讲》中曾经说道:“很值得注意的是,莎士比亚的人物,像实际生活中的人一样,常常被误解,几乎总是被不同的人从不同的角度来理解。”或许这正是莎士比亚的伟大之处,他在所塑造的人物中,注入了自己对于世界与人类复杂的理解,所以这些人物才如此...
評分这本书刚开始读的时候会有些迷惑,因为我太执着于把人物一一对应起来。比如,西蒙•斯特鲁洛维奇应该就是原著中的夏洛克啊,那为何书中还有一个夏洛克跟他谈笑风生?欠债割肉这事发生没有?普鲁拉贝尔应该就是鲍西亚,可是那个德·安东到底是原著中的安东尼奥还是鲍西亚的...
評分 評分 評分文/小灰灰 “夏洛克”这个名字,会让一些读者想到英剧的《神探夏洛克》和英国作家阿瑟·柯南·道尔创作的一个虚构侦探形象夏洛克·福尔摩斯,不过我们今天所说的夏洛克,他既不是小说里的侦探夏洛克也不是英剧里的神探夏洛克,他是莎士比亚喜剧作品《威尼斯商人》里视钱如命、...
