Frank Kermode is one of our most distinguished and beloved critics of English literature. Here, he contributes a new epilogue to his collection of classic lectures on the relationship of fiction to age-old concepts of apocalyptic chaos and crisis. Prompted by the approach of the millennium, he revisits the book which brings his highly concentrated insights to bear on some of the most unyielding philosophical and aesthetic enigmas. Examining the works of writers from Plato to William Burroughs, Kermode shows how they have persistently imposed their "fictions" upon the face of eternity and how these have reflected the apocalyptic spirit. Kermode then discusses literature at a time when new fictive explanations, as used by Spenser and Shakespeare, were being devised to fit a world of uncertain beginning and end. He goes on to deal perceptively with modern literature - with "traditionalists" such as Yeats, Eliot, and Joyce, as well as contemporary "schismatics," the French "new novelists," and such seminal figures as Jean-Paul Sartre and Samuel Beckett. Whether weighing the difference between modern and earlier modes of apocalyptic thought, considering the degeneration of fiction into myth, or commenting on the vogue of the Absurd, Kermode is distinctly lucid, persuasive, witty, and prodigal of ideas.
弗兰克克默德是剑桥大学教授兼任哥伦比亚、哈佛等美国大学的客座教授。他被誉为本世纪最博学的文学批评家之一。由于他的学术涉猎面广,有人认为“批评家”的头衔比“文学批评家”更适合于他。
开始读它是为了解决我当时看《妙警贼探》结局的困惑,怎样的结局才是震撼人心而又有内在逻辑的。没能茅塞顿开。把开端——发展——结局的小说结构归结为末世意识,是个绝妙的思路,但未必是合理的。
评分a true classic in every sense.
评分很多哲学和法国文学相关,读起来有点吃力,需要再读一遍...
评分astonishingly talented and enlightening work on the sense of fiction
