Umberto Eco is the author of four bestselling novels, The Name of The Rose, Foucault's Pendulum, The Island of The Day Before and, most recently, Baudolino. His collections of essays include Five Moral Pieces, Kant and the Platypus, Serendipities, Travels In Hyperreality, and How To Travel With a Salmon and Other Essays. A Professor of Semiotics at the University of Bologna, Umberto Eco lives in Italy.
Beauty is neither a history of art, nor a history of aesthetics but Umberto Eco draws on the histories of both these disciplines to define the ideas of beauty that have informed sensibilities from the classical world to modern times. In terms of form and style, Beauty has been conceived for a vast and diversified readership: taking in painting, sculpture, architecture, film, photography, the decorative arts, novels and poems, it offers a rich and intelligent panorama of this huge subject. It traces the philosophy of aesthetics through history and examines some of the many treatises that have sought to define it. Beauty is Umberto Eco at his most captivating and eclectic: we read not only of Botticelli and Michelangelo but of how the fashion of the 1960s owes much to ancient Egyptian dress, and how ancient Roman and eighteenth-century hairstyles have much in common. It makes the familiar new, and sheds a brilliant new light on the unfamiliar. Illustrated in full colour throughout and produced to the highest standards, Beauty is an indispensable book.
阐述美的观念从古希腊到现代。拿一个世纪拉开与距离来看,有一个区别于上世代的不连贯的特征,那就是这个时代的“美”。 如作者导论所言“美的观念,千汇万状,在这些变化之上,可能有某种施诸百世百世万族皆准的规则,本书并不期望不计代价地搜寻这些规则,我们不做此意...
评分这本书本身是一本非常好的书,让我对西方美学历史有比较全面和真切的理解。 翻译者,我想,也是希望用“配得上”如此重要著作的词汇和句法来翻译出那种厚重和深刻。可是,似乎有点儿过犹不及了。阅读的过程中经常会被一些艰涩的词汇和古怪的句法阻挡,放缓阅读速度。
评分平心而论,其实书本身的内容还是不错的,但是翻译很有问题,一是没有把书本身的几条主线用统一的语言反复强化,让读者更容易抓住书的主要内容;二是作为一本半科普的书,语言完全没考虑到读者群体,很晦涩;三是有部分人名画作等翻译没有遵循常规翻法。 我自己觉得这本书有几条...

评分起初看得出发点,是为了学着欣赏那些伟大艺术家流传下的不朽作品。 那些油画,雕塑,国画,音乐为什么历百年仍让人着迷? 这书有几个好: 一是铜版纸彩印,很多经典作品图稿,细观可得皮毛感受;但缺点就是没有针对每幅作品的赏析介绍。 二作者知识渊博旁征博引蔚为壮观,的确...
