The Seventh Function of Language pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
From the prizewinning author of HHhH, “the most insolent novel of the year” (L’Express) is a romp through the French intelligentsia of the twentieth century.
Paris, 1980. The literary critic Roland Barthes dies—struck by a laundry van—after lunch with the presidential candidate François Mitterand. The world of letters mourns a tragic accident. But what if it wasn’t an accident at all? What if Barthes was . . . murdered?
In The Seventh Function of Language, Laurent Binet spins a madcap secret history of the French intelligentsia, starring such luminaries as Jacques Derrida, Umberto Eco, Gilles Deleuze, Michel Foucault, Judith Butler, and Julia Kristeva—as well as the hapless police detective Jacques Bayard, whose new case will plunge him into the depths of literary theory (starting with the French version of Roland Barthes for Dummies). Soon Bayard finds himself in search of a lost manuscript by the linguist Roman Jakobson on the mysterious “seventh function of language.”
A brilliantly erudite comedy with more than a dash of The Da Vinci Code—The Seventh Function of Language takes us from the cafés of Saint-Germain to the corridors of Cornell University, and into the duels and orgies of the Logos Club, a secret philosophical society that dates to the Roman Empire. Binet has written both a send-up and a wildly exuberant celebration of the French intellectual tradition.
Laurent Binet was born in Paris, France, in 1972. He is the author of La Vie professionnelle de Laurent B., a memoir of his experience teaching in secondary schools in Paris. In March 2010, his debut novel, HHhH, won the Prix Goncourt du Premier Roman. Laurent Binet is a professor at the University of Paris III, where he lectures on French literature.
Sam Taylor has written for The Guardian, Financial Times, Vogue and Esquire, and has translated such works as the award-winning HHhH by Laurent Binet, and the internationally-bestselling The Truth about the Harry Quebert Affair by Joël Dicker.
学术类小说,不少in-joke,读起来也很过瘾,只是结构与节奏有些欠妥。不过话说回来,要想读结构+情节完美的作品,也只有P.G.Wodehouse了,可后者不适合满足知识分子的虚荣心啊,哈哈。
评分我觉得我要了解很多哲学家的理论才能理解里面的一些梗然后fully appreciate这本书的乐趣..单论情节还是很有意思的,Simon怀疑自己是不是书中人这个很可能cliched的桥段,作者最后resolve的我觉得也还行,构建了一个paradox, where it discusses 作家到底是跟着文字的走向simply write it down还是actively changing the story he tells的问题。The seventh function的解释也还算reasonable,两个主角追了一路错的人这个设计也很有美感。像莫名其妙的日本人插手这一点,我觉得可能是作者本人对自己一点调侃,笑自己设置一个没有动机的奇怪人物来当主角的guardian angel吧
评分读到无心工作。专心致志地游戏,利用俗套又嘲弄俗套,将好莱坞狗血与法国精英理论等而视之,杂耍球似地抛弄。似乎轻微厌女又或者表演phallogocentrism过了头,异域风味艳情戏略显多余。作者很喜欢将两种register的对话并致进行,和包法利夫人眉来眼去。
评分学术界的武侠小说,正巧去年学到雅各布森的语言的六个功能,这本小说就想象了语言的第七功能,像是一种秘密武器,掌握了它就可以说服一切人。故事围绕罗兰巴特之死的悬案,福柯,德里达,索尔斯,埃克,巴特勒轮番出场,情节精彩程度不亚于好莱坞大片。作者的知识量大得惊人,每一页上都有无数的内行梗,看着非常过瘾。说实话第一次读完很多细节没看懂,有空再看一遍。另外,里面还有一整章发生在Ithaca,还有Cornell的比较文学教授Johnathan Culler也在里面出现了,很是有趣

《语言的第七功能》 很难想象一部小说里能够包含着那么多的语言学学术知识。 一本书,里面提及到英法德俄美等众多欧美国家、中日亚洲国家,甚至还有来自非洲的、东南亚等国家的人物。小说里面人物的国籍非常广泛,并且对于不同国籍任务的外貌刻画以及语言表达又都是如此精辟。...
评分12.25.2017:巴尔特毕生以写作反对“doxa”——结构化的、被权力规训的语言,而这本小说充斥着刻板的陈词滥调、商业思维主导的写作套路。所以作为回答,应该是作者杀死了罗兰·巴尔特。 符号学的庸俗运用:从一开始Simon面对Bayard时推断其家庭状况到最后面对杀手时推断其家人身...

评分洛朗·比内想要杀死罗兰·巴特的心情,我很理解,跟中学生痛恨马克思、牛顿和鲁迅是一个道理。可以设想:某天凌晨,洛朗·比内写符号学论文写到心力枯索,愤然在电脑屏幕上敲下几个大字——杀死罗兰·巴特!没想到,简简单单一句话,枝条伸展,就成了一部洋洋洒洒35万字的长篇...
