The Western Canon

The Western Canon pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025

哈羅德·布魯姆,1930年齣生於紐約,先後就讀於康奈爾大學和耶魯大學,1955年起在耶魯大學任教。早期研究浪漫主義詩歌,曾齣版過論布萊剋、雪萊、葉芝、斯蒂文斯等英美詩人的專著。除先前提到《影響的焦慮》、《西方正典》之外,他還著有《誤讀之圖》、《卡巴拉猶太神秘哲學與批評》、《詩與隱抑》以及即將齣版的新作《耶穌和亞維:神聖之名》(Jesus and Yahweh:The Names Divine)。作為一個批評傢,布魯姆主要研究領域包括詩歌批評、理論批評和宗教批評三大方麵,而英國浪漫主義詩歌、後期弗洛伊德的精神分析理論和猶太教的諾斯替主義與喀巴拉主義則是這些批評的主要對象。在美國,布魯姆絕對算得上是一個大牌的學者和批評傢。他以其獨特的理論建構和批評實踐被譽為是“西方傳統中最有天賦、最有原創性和最具煽動性的一位文學批評傢”。

A review of 200 or 300 words cannot do justice to a book like this: it is the summation of a great critic's most fundamental beliefs--something like a dying Bernstein's last performance of Mahler's ninth, though in this case a lot less sad. In fact, this book of essays represents Bloom at his most celebratory, and there's a wonderful, vigorous energy about it. Why, one wonders, reading it, do we bother reading anybody but Shakespeare, Dante, or Chaucer? The argument for Shakespeare is particularly compelling. Bloom believes that Shakespeare is the canon: that he defines for the Western world the standards by which we judge all literature. And more: he defines for us what we are ourselves, what we understand of human nature. This argument, offered with Bloom's customary flare for the controversial, is akin to the remark that all philosophy is a footnote to Plato, and like it, is probably in large measure true. Thus, modern psychology doesn't add very much to what people could have already learned from reading Shakespeare because Shakespeare defines the limits of what we know: we can't get beyond or outside him. Certainly, experience teaches that Bloom is right; indeed, the evolution of human consciousness seems to have taken one of its periodic jolts forward about the time of Shakespeare, and he above all seems to have captured the entire scope of what was new. As Bloom points out, Shakespeare is universally adored, in all languages, and perhaps it is for this reason. The essays on Dante and Chaucer are almost equally powerful, though in a sense less awesome. And the brief remarks about the powerful movements of resentment trying to push apart these great pillars of the Western canon, though perspicacious, are melancholy and incidental. Get this book for the great essays on Shakespeare. For lovers of literature, probably nothing more powerful or in an odd way more religious will be written this year.

讀後感

这是一本让我愉悦的书。酷似金庸小说的架构,加上并无注释的散文风格。对经典审美标准是否成立?经典会不会消亡的争吵,我已经没什么兴趣。这场对憎恶学派(school of resentment)的战争在理论上基本输了,但萦绕在文字间的一种悲情仍然动人。 我珍惜关于具体作家的感受,一个...

关于文学的语境,值得一谈的大概有三个层次。  在第一层次上,文学依赖于文本之外的语境。 到此为止,“纯”的文学还不存在。 大多数中世纪的东方文学都是应酬性的,这一点适用于从阿拉伯到中国的整个亚洲大陆——或许印度除外。对一位古代阿拉伯或波斯诗人来说,诗歌是展...

哈罗德·布卢姆有一种濒临灭绝的珍稀生物的气质,至少他有自视为一种衰亡了的伟大传统的最后捍卫者的倾向。对这个传统,我今天突然找到了一个准确的表达,那就是:对文学的爱。其实,简单地把布卢姆自己树立的敌人——“憎恨学派”——反过来,也就得到了他自己的定位。因此,...

《世界文化》06年第几期来着,忘了!不好意思! 片段: 当经典失去了在十九世纪时的那份辉煌与强力,而不再成为人们阅读与关注的中心时,固守着精英主义象牙之塔的布鲁姆显得格外孤立。他因为这种孤立而愤怒,并将这一他认为的“恶果”归咎于“憎恨学派”(布鲁姆用这个名称来...
