In the tradition of E. M. Forster's "Aspects of the Novel" and Milan Kundera's "The Art of the Novel," "How Fiction Works" is a scintillating study of the magic of fiction--an analysis of its main elements and a celebration of its lasting power. Here one of the most prominent and stylish critics of our time looks into the machinery of storytelling to ask some fundamental questions: What do we mean when we say we "know" a fictional character? What constitutes a telling detail? When is a metaphor successful? Is Realism realistic? Why do some literary conventions become dated while others stay fresh?James Wood ranges widely, from Homer to "Make Way for Ducklings," from the Bible to John le Carre, and his book is both a study of the techniques of fiction-making and an alternative history of the novel. Playful and profound, "How Fiction Works" will be enlightening to writers, readers, and anyone else interested in what happens on the page.
詹姆斯•伍德(James Wood,1965— ),英國著名文學評論傢、作傢,現任哈佛大學文學批評實踐教授和《紐約客》專欄作傢。
James’ original choice of the book title was The Nearest Thing to Life. He didn’t tell us why he adopted this one, yet he did mention where he got the idea from G.E, “Art is the nearest thing to life; it is a mode of amplifying experience and extending our contact with our fellow-men beyond the bounds of our personal lot.” Perceptive and accurate.

1 在知乎上看到一个问题,文学批评是否有用? 有一派人认为,没什么鸟用,所有的理论不过是文论家的胡编乱造,不仅对文学没有帮助,还会妨碍阅读。 对此我当然不能同意,不过这样的看法似乎很常见,也颇为流行。一开始,我也抱着这样的偏见,对文学理论不屑一顾。为什么呢?...
評分叙述: 自由间接体:叙述融汇了作者的语言与人物的语言,更具有代入性;叙述是作者自身的语言风格、角色该采用的语言风格、世界性日常生活语言风格的三位一体。 福楼拜创立的现代叙述:把惯常的细节与变化的细节混合起来(拍号,即时值标记不同),场景的刻画因人工雕琢而栩栩如生...
評分看书的时候想起以前看过一个大河剧,叫《葵三代》。 《葵三代》开头,石田三成和德川在关原决战,结果三成败北,被德川的手下抓起来。原本位极人臣,如今却落得个游街示众。最后一天游完街回来,隔天就要被浸猪笼了,三成和几个差役坐在简陋的亭下休息。虽然是败军之将,差役们...
