" It might be thought the height of poor taste to ascribe good fortune to a healthy man with a young family struck down at the age of sixty by an incurable degenerative disorder from which he must shortly die. But there is more than one sort of luck. To fall prey to a motor neuron disease is surely to have offended the Gods at some point, and there is nothing more to be said. But if you must suffer thus, better to have a well-stocked head." -Tony Judt
The Memory Chalet is a memoir unlike any you have ever read before. Each essay charts some experience or remembrance of the past through the sieve of Tony Judt's prodigious mind. His youthful love of a particular London bus route evolves into a reflection on public civility and interwar urban planning. Memories of the 1968 student riots of Paris meander through the divergent sex politics of Europe, before concluding that his generation "was a revolutionary generation, but missed the revolution." A series of road trips across America lead not just to an appreciation of American history, but to an eventual acquisition of citizenship. Foods and trains and long-lost smells all compete for Judt's attention; but for us, he has forged his reflections into an elegant arc of analysis. All as simply and beautifully arranged as a Swiss chalet-a reassuring refuge deep in the mountains of memory.
Tony Judt was educated at King's College, Cambridge and the École Normale Supérieure, Paris, and taught at Cambridge, Oxford, and Berkeley. He was the Erich Maria Remarque Professor of European Studies at New York University, in addition to being the Director of the Remarque Institute, which is dedicated to the study of Europe and which he founded in 1995.
The author or editor of fourteen books, Professor Judt was a frequent contributor to The New York Review of Books, the Times Literary Supplement, The New Republic, The New York Times and many other journals in Europe and the United States. Professor Judt is the author of Ill Fares the Land, Reappraisals: Reflections on the Forgotten Twentieth Century, and Postwar: A History of Europe Since 1945, which was one of The New York Times Book Review’s Ten Best Books of 2005, winner of the Council on Foreign Relations Arthur Ross Book Award and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. He died in August 2010 at the age of sixty-two.
更随意更私人的沉疴遍地。生命最后时刻留下的文字,几乎读得热泪盈眶,无处不在的老历史学家的胸怀和焦虑。时不时还有帕慕克和萨义德既视感。
评分两年之内看了两次 希望每一年都会翻出来看一遍的书 高级知识分子的情怀
评分Tony Judt's writing is timeless.
评分读到了很多知识分子的不羁吧。
评分这本书跟我八字不合,怎么读都进不到脑子里去。。。
文 云也退 原载 《外滩画报》 死控制着我们对生的理解和表达,没有死之平等,世上一切回忆都将失去存在的意义。假如人类消灭了死亡,哪怕只是一小部分世人可以在地球上永生,撰写回忆录这门生意也将瞬间消失。假如世上问世了第一剂长生不死药,哪怕它的定价为 5 亿美元,...
评分虽然《战后欧洲史》的电子版就在硬盘里摆着,但看的第一本托尼•朱特的书,还是他这本文学性质颇浓的自传。作者是著名史家和公共知识分子,但这自传却是非常私人化的回忆、感慨与剖白,诚恳坦率,充满声音与滋味。很多地方,朱特那种“气人的孤高”简直溢出纸面,却神奇地并...
评分两个生活幸福却突患绝症而全身瘫痪的人,在病床上写就了两本畅销书。 托尼.朱特好歹是在他尚能口述的时候完成了作品,法国人鲍比则是靠左眼皮的眨动一个一个识别字母写下他四万字的遗作。没有高大上的坚强宣言,鲍比用眼皮“说”出的第一句话的确是“我想去死”。朱特则...
评分对抗时间的方式包括记忆与书写。 这是一本内容上并不厚重的传记(因为作者没人没有惊心动魄的往事),但是一本情感上粘稠带着悲伤情绪的传记(因为是作者生前的最后一本书,在写完序言的三个月之后就去世了)。 作者拥有冷静,理智,严密的思维。在脑海中搭建建筑物的文学创...
评分总要做点事情来度过艰难的第二百天。于是敲了半天字。 身份的复杂是朱特的一大优势,让他的视野不受很多难以意识到的观念的左右。祖父母从沙皇俄国移民到比利时,缺乏传统意义上的身份意识;父亲出生于安特卫普。外祖父、外祖母来自俄国和罗马尼亚,对这两个国家却并不了解,移...
