How to Read Literature Like a Professor pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
What does it mean when a fictional hero takes a journey?. Shares a meal? Gets drenched in a sudden rain shower? Often, there is much more going on in a novel or poem than is readily visible on the surface -- a symbol, maybe, that remains elusive, or an unexpected twist on a character -- and there's that sneaking suspicion that the deeper meaning of a literary text keeps escaping you.
In this practical and amusing guide to literature, Thomas C. Foster shows how easy and gratifying it is to unlock those hidden truths, and to discover a world where a road leads to a quest; a shared meal may signify a communion; and rain, whether cleansing or destructive, is never just rain. Ranging from major themes to literary models, narrative devices, and form, How to Read Literature Like a Professor is the perfect companion for making your reading experience more enriching, satisfying, and fun.
Thomas C. Foster studied English at Dartmouth College and then Michigan State University. He has been a professor of literature and writing since 1975, the last twenty-one years at the University of Michigan–Flint. In that time, he's learned more about literature from his students than in all the classes he's taken over the years. He is the author of the New York Times bestselling How to Read Novels Like a Professor and How to Read Literature Like a Professor.
作者用简单幽默地语言道出了多年来积累的文学知识。值得推荐。
评分例子棒,被结结实实安利了几位作家。
评分恋有意思的一本书,适当地与所看的作品保持一定距离,来"专业地"分析一下也是不错的,当然也不能忘了情感共鸣带来的乐趣.作者浅入深出地扩大了我们的眼界,提供了基本地新思路.当然看这本书得对西方文学有个基本了解,不然有些地方会有障碍.
评分作为一本关于读书的书,这本的可读性简直太强了。虽然用来举例提到的不少书没有读过,但对于西方文学中各种符号symbol的解读,既生动又幽默,作者对于通俗语言的掌握确实是教授水平,想必他的课也很有趣,真想去旁听一学期啊!
评分边看边按图索骥找书参考,终于看完。对阅读英美文学梳理清晰新颖,有很高的指点作用,今后仍可翻阅参考。
开始觉得废话有点多,中断阅读思路。后来这种现象有所减弱。另外我一直想知道作家们是怎样写作的(如果自己写,即使有idea,但没有任何基础技巧等,总觉得缺少底气),此书终于让我有所了解。 书中条条框框、思维定势太多(例如:“没淹死,就是受洗成功”,拜托,肯定有其他可...
评分高中时喜欢上文学,三年前在豆瓣上听闻了《如何阅读一本文学书》(下简称《如》)的大名,高三毕业便买来翻阅。第一次大约只看了三分之一,这部分主要是关于古今作品“互文性”的内容,当时热衷现代小说和诗歌,对西方古代神话或文学经典并没有什么兴趣,这本书便被我束之高阁...
评分我们叫做玫瑰的这一种花,要是换了个名字,它的香味还是同样的芬芳。 ——莎士比亚《罗密欧与朱丽叶》第二幕第二场 而托马斯·福斯特说 只有一个故事。我认为那唯一的故事,那个单一神话讲的是我们自己…… 而在《玫瑰的名字》里,艾柯写道: 我仿佛觉得,现在...
