How Fiction Works pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
In the tradition of E. M. Forster's "Aspects of the Novel" and Milan Kundera's "The Art of the Novel," "How Fiction Works" is a scintillating study of the magic of fiction--an analysis of its main elements and a celebration of its lasting power. Here one of the most prominent and stylish critics of our time looks into the machinery of storytelling to ask some fundamental questions: What do we mean when we say we "know" a fictional character? What constitutes a telling detail? When is a metaphor successful? Is Realism realistic? Why do some literary conventions become dated while others stay fresh?James Wood ranges widely, from Homer to "Make Way for Ducklings," from the Bible to John le Carre, and his book is both a study of the techniques of fiction-making and an alternative history of the novel. Playful and profound, "How Fiction Works" will be enlightening to writers, readers, and anyone else interested in what happens on the page.
詹姆斯•伍德(James Wood,1965— ),英国著名文学评论家、作家,现任哈佛大学文学批评实践教授和《纽约客》专栏作家。
James’ original choice of the book title was The Nearest Thing to Life. He didn’t tell us why he adopted this one, yet he did mention where he got the idea from G.E, “Art is the nearest thing to life; it is a mode of amplifying experience and extending our contact with our fellow-men beyond the bounds of our personal lot.” Perceptive and accurate.

《小说机杼》在123小节戛然而止。译者的事就算结了。但詹姆斯·伍德背后还有太多亟待挖掘。作为读者,我像黑色故事里的那种侦探,不愿停手。 英语有个诡趣,“声名远播”(famous)常故意和 “恶名昭著”(infamous)通用。詹姆斯•伍德正是一位堪称infamous的批评家。从最...
评分詹姆斯•伍德延续了二十世纪的批评传统,更注重文本内部研究,从小说叙述、细节、人物、意识、同情和复杂、语言、对话几个要素着手,不遗余力地分析叙述者、作者、读者的关系。 无疑,詹姆斯有一对小说的金耳朵,他可以听见小说中如同柔软的啤酒沫的部分上涌时向四周绵延的声...
评分读得比我想象中慢(书很薄)因为比我想象中要求更多的专注。 自由间接文体 词语应当复杂地同时属于读者和作者人物应该鲜明地站在眼前而作者又应该无声地在场。(身份暧昧 福楼拜的浪子)现实主义作者不自觉地具有自己的风格同时又必须卑微地学习笔下的人物去说话 必须警惕“文...
评分《琅琊榜》近来比较火,好奇之下,把书和剧都找来看了,然后有点窝火,因为浪费了好几天时间。这么低劣的东西,被捧上神坛,奉为良心之作,可见今日之中国,神不过就是地摊上卖的泥塑木雕,良心属于同样廉价的玩意儿。 那谁说了,没有省察的人生是不值得过的人生,因此我反思了...
