In the mold of his acclaimed History of Beauty, renowned cultural critic Umberto Eco’s On Ugliness is an exploration of the monstrous and the repellant in visual culture and the arts. What is the voyeuristic impulse behind our attraction to the gruesome and the horrible? Where does the magnetic appeal of the sordid and the scandalous come from? Is ugliness also in the eye of the beholder? Eco’s encyclopedic knowledge and captivating storytelling skills combine in this ingenious study of the Ugly, revealing that what we often shield ourselves from and shun in everyday life is what we’re most attracted to subliminally. Topics range from Milton’s Satan to Goethe’s Mephistopheles; from witchcraft and medieval torture tactics to martyrs, hermits, and penitents; from lunar births and disemboweled corpses to mythic monsters and sideshow freaks; and from Decadentism and picturesque ugliness to the tacky, kitsch, and camp, and the aesthetics of excess and vice. With abundant examples of painting and sculpture ranging from ancient Greek amphorae to Bosch, Brueghel, and Goya among others, and with quotations from the most celebrated writers and philosophers of each age, this provocative discussion explores in-depth the concepts of evil, depravity, and darkness in art and literature.
Umberto Eco is a world-renowned writer of fiction, essays, and academic treatises and is undoubtedly one of the finest authors of our time. Among his best-selling novels are The Name of the Rose, Foucault’s Pendulum, The Island of the Day Before, and Baudolino.
集丑恶之大成
评分蹲在Tate Britain 读完的,有关中译本撕逼得一塌糊涂,无奈看不懂意大利语,读 Alastair McEwen 的英译本也不错,好歹是Umberto Eco 指定的翻译。

评分美丑观念随时代及文化而变化,价值观也一样。比如歌星搁古代就是卖唱的,演员搁以前就是卖笑的,什么琴棋书画唱歌跳舞现在叫才艺,以前只有青楼妓女才学。
评分集丑恶之大成
在《美的历史》之后,艾柯再推新书,剖析世人对“丑”之成见,颠覆传统的审美观。《丑的历史》不是简单的图像集合,而是会聚了艾柯的美学思索。《丑的历史》举凡恐怖、受难、死亡、魔鬼、启示录、怪物、凶兆、诙谐、猥亵、巫术、撒旦主义、虐待狂、媚俗……无奇不有,无所不...
评分“《丑的历史》为休闲读者提供了大量信息,也为那些希望深入探讨这个课题的人指引了门径。” 书的封底用到了《选择》杂志的一句评价。我认为还是比较中肯的。 这本书从古典时期谈起,一直讲到了现当代。书中所用的材料主要来自于文学和艺术作品,以及一些谈到丑的文艺或者美学...
评分《丑的历史》有网友说老早收到了,讲收到的书品相交关好。我5月24日在卓越下的这笔订单,31日中午收到,与第二次调换的《时间的故事》一起送来。精装书品相出人意料的漂亮——快递员说,这两本精装都从苏州库房调拨而来呢,他不知道的是这两本书都是Viking兄编辑滴。 对于这...
评分美是有情人眼里的西施——必提福(beautiful),丑是无情人眼里的东施——阿哥累(ugly)。本来,妍媸百态,燕瘦环肥,各有所爱,但是立场、偏好、经验、所有权和文化环境,决定了人们对于美丑高下的主观性划分标准。伏尔泰在《哲学辞典》里说,“问蛤蟆什么是美,什么是真正的...
