The Great Cat Massacre (1984) is the subject of a scholarly work by American historian Robert Darnton, describing and interpreting an unusual source detailing the murder or "massacre" of cats during the late 1730s by apprentice printers living and working on Rue Saint-Séverin in Paris.
Darnton describes how, as the apprentices suffered hard conditions, they came to resent the favours which their masters gave to their cats, and contrived to deal with the nuisance cats by slaughtering them so as to distress their masters. Darnton interprets this as an early form of workers' protest.
Believing that historians should adopt anthropological methods in order to understand 'the otherness' of previous eras,Robert Darnton analyses a rich variety of sources,from grim peasant folklore to Enlightenment philosophy,in order to show not merely what men and women thought,but why they thought it.
德)聚斯金德的《香水——一个谋杀犯的故事》中的主人公是香水制造师。 有兴趣的读者,可以试着用《屠猫记》中“印刷业学徒的暴动”的分析路径,来分析《香水》中香水师行业背后的时代、社会背景。 我是力有不逮,但很希望看到哦。
評分期待了许久,图书馆终于进了达恩顿的《屠猫》,读罢此书受益良多,遂写些许言语。 如果要说本书的题目的话,“法国文化史钩沉”显然才应该是概括性的主要内容。什么是“钩沉“?这其实就是本书独特构造或写作思路的最恰当概括。作者仿如将锚或者钩沉入十八世纪的法国之海的最底...
評分1730年代末期的巴黎圣塞佛伦街,一群印刷业学徒热情洋溢地审判并杀死了他们所能看见的全部猫,包括老板娘的心头宠物,在狂欢的气氛中他们当着老板的面将猫的尸体吊在工场,并在接下来几天里不断模仿当时的情境。他们大笑大闹,又敲又打,还学羊一般咩咩叫,把这当成难得的娱乐...
評分不知道其他朋友是怎么看书的,因为特殊原因我非常细致地阅读了本书,发现这并不是一个善本。相对于译者自诩的“从头到尾一字不漏详加复核”,我觉得有欺人之谈。 暂且不提所谓海峡两岸用语习惯问题,我想这都是可以克服的,只谈一些规范化和行文上的问题。 第一章中有一本很有...
