Bloom is a literary critic, and currently a Sterling Professor of the Humanities at Yale University. Since the publication of his first book in 1959, Bloom has written more than 20 books of literary criticism, several books discussing religion, and one novel. He has edited hundreds of anthologies.
Information is endlessly available to us; where shall wisdom be found?" is the crucial question with which renowned literary critic Harold Bloom begins this impassioned book on the pleasures and benefits of reading well. For more than forty years, Bloom has transformed college students into lifelong readers with his unrivaled love for literature. Now, at a time when faster and easier electronic media threatens to eclipse the practice of reading, Bloom draws on his experience as critic, teacher, and prolific reader to plumb the great books for their sustaining wisdom. Shedding all polemic, Bloom addresses the solitary reader, who, he urges, should read for the purest of all reasons: to discover and augment the self. His ultimate faith in the restorative power of literature resonates on every page of this infinitely rewarding and important book.
这位读者的概括不错。摘录如下: 在《西方正典》中,布鲁姆说道,文学最大的功用就是教人以孤独,在《如》一书中,布鲁姆又指出文学的功用是教人战胜孤独和自我治愈。这看似矛盾,其实是二而一的,在这种孤独教育中,人发现了自我,并且使得自我更加有厚度。不过坏的文学会让人...
評分 評分在西方文学研究界,哈罗德•布鲁姆是个十足的异类,一方面,他列出的那些伟大的书的清单,被英国批评家约翰•凯里讥讽为 “当然不是给人类看的,它们倒更像是发送给上帝的期末汇报,好让他老人家看看他的人间子民们是多么具有文化修养“,把布鲁姆说得像个陈腐的学院...

評分下午在圖書館休息,順便拎齣來看瞭看,老談possession by memory,想起自己愛在嘴邊背的那些詩。irony那個講法感覺被認識的一個老師偷學走瞭。Housman常讀常新,What are those blue remembered hills...看前言想起現在學校英語係研究生清一色gender and sexuality和African...
评分給莎氏的情詩一首又一首
评分Harold到底有多愛文學,愛到他覺得莎士比亞幾乎可以代替上帝。不管認不認同他,那種激情還是讓作為讀者的我羨慕不已。(另外,友鄰沙門哥寫的書評很好,在書的首頁可以看到)
评分"find what truly comes near to you that can be used for weighing and considering" 關於閱讀的意義,本書的序言是讀過的最好的。作品分析隻讀瞭自己有所瞭解的作品,剩下的等著以後慢慢看好瞭
评分布魯姆的口吻好像一位粗暴但令人敬慕的拉比。雖然他錶現齣他對一切作品有最終解釋權的樣子,但你很難反抗他。強大,坦誠,優美又富有感染力,是一個不成熟(與年齡無關)的讀者所渴望的那種閱讀導師。但有時候他的解讀的通透程度又令人生疑:現代的短篇故事不是契訶夫式的就是博爾赫斯式的;莎士比亞投下的身影是如此巨大,他的作品成為瞭文本的文本,解讀萬物之匙。
