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.

評分完美
評分美醜觀念隨時代及文化而變化,價值觀也一樣。比如歌星擱古代就是賣唱的,演員擱以前就是賣笑的,什麼琴棋書畫唱歌跳舞現在叫纔藝,以前隻有青樓妓女纔學。
評分downside: 材料和分析僅限於西方世界

丑的第一映像,来自小时美术课本后页那些达利的画。当时真不知道,为什么画成这样,为什么会有人要看。 丑的印象还来自于 那些类似 标准时代 的雕塑。被抽去了比例和尊严,今人生厌。 显然,我明白不了,美就是丑,丑就是美的道理。但看到作者说,再撒旦堕落前,他应该是最美...
評分“媚俗也一直被用来形容希特勒、墨索里尼政权下那些歌功颂德,要全民欢迎的艺术。” 美的对立为丑,然而审美与审丑皆有共性,存在许多不确定因素,翁贝托・艾柯写《美的历史》后,再作《丑的历史》,在书前《导论》里说:“每个世纪都有哲学家和艺术家提出‘美’的定...
評分美有标准,但丑的形式却是无穷无尽。继《美的历史》后,翁贝托•艾柯(Umberto Ec)大师又一部震惊全球的巨作,《丑的历史》谈的丑不再是美的附属品,而是恢弘地呈现“全面的丑”。 人们对于“美”会自然而然的产生倾慕,并提出了许多理论替美下意义,对于丑的事物,却由心中...
評分本来以为要把纸质书背到美国去读,结果还是赶在出发之前的最后一天看完了艾柯的《丑的历史》。一开始以为这本书是关于艺术史的,后来才知道它实际上是一本哲学+美学著作。加上自己时间比较紧张,中译本的翻译也不是特别好,所以算看了个半懂不懂吧。个人认为这本书比较猎奇,记...
評分一种情色与哲学的结合。 普通人生儿育女,而培养高贵精神的人则生产了美与智慧。 后世幻想那是美善的时代,其实从但丁直到现代,都受这些恐怖情绪的影响。 圣奥古斯丁:我们在论述时选择方便的节骨眼上沉默,使这些沉默像标点一般突出我们的论点。...
