“One of my oldest crusades is against the distinction between thought and feeling, which is really the basis of all anti-intellectual views: the heart and the head, thinking and feeling, fantasy and judgment . . . and I don’t believe it’s true. . . . I have the impression that thinking is a form of feeling and that feeling is a form of thinking.”
Susan Sontag, one of the most internationally renowned and controversial intellectuals of the latter half of the twentieth century, still provokes. In 1978 Jonathan Cott, a founding contributing editor of Rolling Stone magazine, interviewed Sontag first in Paris and later in New York. Only a third of their twelve hours of discussion ever made it to print. Now, more than three decades later, Yale University Press is proud to publish the entire transcript of Sontag’s remarkable conversation, accompanied by Cott’s preface and recollections.
Sontag’s musings and observations reveal the passionate engagement and breadth of her critical intelligence and curiosities at a moment when she was at the peak of her powers. Nearly a decade after her death, these hours of conversation offer a revelatory and indispensable look at the self-described "besotted aesthete" and "obsessed moralist."
“I really believe in history, and that’s something people don’t believe in anymore. I know that what we do and think is a historical creation. . . .We were given a vocabulary that came into existence at a particular moment. So when I go to a Patti Smith concert, I enjoy, participate, appreciate, and am tuned in better because I’ve read Nietzsche.”
“There’s no incompatibility between observing the world and being tuned into this electronic, multimedia, multi-tracked, McLuhanite world and enjoying what can be enjoyed. I love rock and roll. Rock and roll changed my life. . . .You know, to tell you the truth, I think rock and roll is the reason I got divorced. I think it was Bill Haley and the Comets and Chuck Berry that made me decide that I had to get a divorce and leave the academic world and start a new life.”
Jonathan Cott is the author of numerous books, including most recently Days That I'll Remember: Spending Time with John Lennon and Yoko Ono. He lives in New York City. Susan Sontag gained immediate prominence with the publication of her first book of essays, Against Interpretation, in 1966. She went on to write many more books, including On Photography and Illness as Metaphor which were translated into more than two dozen languages. She died in December, 2004.
"I hate seeing myself as a victim. It was my choice, and I don't like blaming other people because it's so much easier to change oneself than to change other people." That's why I adore this woman so much!

評分有很多片段做瞭筆記,最開頭關於在癌癥中不希望將自己作為被害人的那些,其實作為一個癌癥患者的親近人,也很有感觸。對話和作品是兩迴事。在行動上很有指導意義的是,事業生活的分離,你不能一邊在社交中遊走,一邊期待專注於寫作研究。另外,對於你不認同的親友叨叨,要選擇性耳聾而非爭辯和插科打諢
評分Susan Sontag had a 12 hours of conversation with Jonathan Cott in the October 4, 1979. They, or Sontag mostly, expressed their opinions on and thoughts of cancer and mortality, the music of R&R, cultural feminism, writing and living in NYC. I admire her not only her literary criticism, also her personality. Like a mentor, a mother never existed.
評分不厚的一本小書 剛剛讀完 喜歡Sontag的用詞 簡單又擊中要害
很早之前我就发现,写得好的作家并不一定健谈。很多作家甘愿隐居幕后,不想以真面目示人,发表言论声称作家最好的自传就是自己的作品,所以喜欢吃鸡蛋就好了,没必要非把下蛋的母鸡拉出来示众。作家逃避社交的缘由有很多,其中有一项是,独自写作久了,社交恐惧症和失语症会一...
評分这几天早晨,走进储藏室骑电动车时,我总会想起“今天是你余生中最年轻的一天”,便会觉得阵阵悲伤——我最好的一天又过去了,并没有收获什么,而且我还要每天重复这样一种悲伤,就更令人难受了。我觉得自己就像个倒霉蛋一样被这想法攥紧了,或者说是被一种常识给绑架了。如此...
評分——读《我幻想着粉碎现有的一切》琐记 桑塔格说,认知的欲望——就像肉体欲望一样,并且经常成为肉体欲望的模仿品或复制品。肉体欲望先于认知,但是认知使肉体欲望升华。就欲望本身而言,与道德层面无关。《疾病的隐喻》实际上是对这一观点的引申。疾病本身会对人体造成痛苦,...
評分“我认为友谊是非常肉欲的,但不一定跟性有关。我认为我所有的关系都是肉欲的:我无法想象去喜欢一个我不想触摸或拥抱的人,所以在一定程度上总是有肉欲的一面。我不知道,或许我又是从自己的性观念出发这样讲的,但我确实不会被那么多人吸引。” 桑塔格这类文化定义者几乎涉...
評分相比于另两位西方当代最重要的女性知识分子波伏娃和阿伦特,对于苏珊•桑塔格我了解的并不那么多。所以在翻开这本访谈录之前,看着封面上那幅黑白的撕碎的照片,我幻想着一个锋利、坚硬、饱满的女性会出现在书中,但读过整本书后,我粉碎了幻想中现有的一切。 读访谈录有种...
