What makes a story a story? What is style? What's the connection between realism and real life? These are some of the questions James Wood answers in "How Fiction Works," the first book-length essay by the preeminent critic of his generation. Ranging widely--from Homer to David Foster Wallace, from "What Maisie Knew "to "Make Way for Ducklings"--Wood takes the reader through the basic elements of the art, step by step. The result is nothing less than a philosophy of the novel--plainspoken, funny, blunt--in the traditions of E. M. Forster's "Aspects of the Novel "and Strunk and White's "The Elements of Style." It sums up two decades of insight with wit and concision. It will change the way you read.
詹姆斯•伍德(James Wood,1965— ),英国著名文学评论家、作家,现任哈佛大学文学批评实践教授和《纽约客》专栏作家。
Short but simple and interesting. Fiction teaches people how to live, then life teaches us how to enjoy fiction. They are entangled with each other, beautifying human being itself perfectly.
评分为Wood心目中的现实主义-lifeness正名之作,和巴特干了一架。然而立论平实,殊无新意,更像是一本稀释了的微观批评普及读物。
评分“The true writer, that free servant of life, is one who must always be acting as if life were a category beyond anything the novel and yet grasped; as if life itself were always on the verge of becoming conventional.”
评分自由间接引语的作用及发展……
评分如果排去racist, sexist的部分,还是可以读的....但是这样的书读来干什么呢?
即使在阅读了一些质量不错的文学评论和文学史之后,我仍然会对文学理论的意义持怀疑态度,尤其是将文学像朝代或国家一样,以各种“主义”和“流派”划分开来。但同时,我又绞尽脑汁想要掌握和厘清这些“主义”们的来龙去脉,因为文学世界实在过于庞杂,就像一团团聚集或游离的...
评分《小说机杼》在123小节戛然而止。译者的事就算结了。但詹姆斯·伍德背后还有太多亟待挖掘。作为读者,我像黑色故事里的那种侦探,不愿停手。 英语有个诡趣,“声名远播”(famous)常故意和 “恶名昭著”(infamous)通用。詹姆斯•伍德正是一位堪称infamous的批评家。从最...
评分一、福楼拜与现代叙事:文体风格,自由间接体,细节 如果作者与笔下人物完全融为一体,整本书始终只有一个人的不断独白,那这本书就会显得无聊至极。而如果作者和人物分得太开,敏感的读者又会感受到出戏的违和感,认为作者是在说教。所以,每个作家都得学会借助自由间接体或者...
评分今年四十六岁的詹姆斯·伍德在英语文学界知名度极高。伍德08年被评为世界最顶尖的三十位批评家之一,也有人评价他为“他那一代最出色的文学评论家”;2010-11年度柏林奖研究员职位获得者。伍德现为《纽约客》的专职作家,同时也是哈佛大学文学批评实践教授。从伊顿公学到剑桥大...
评分詹姆斯•伍德延续了二十世纪的批评传统,更注重文本内部研究,从小说叙述、细节、人物、意识、同情和复杂、语言、对话几个要素着手,不遗余力地分析叙述者、作者、读者的关系。 无疑,詹姆斯有一对小说的金耳朵,他可以听见小说中如同柔软的啤酒沫的部分上涌时向四周绵延的声...
