A compreens?o de Contos d’Escárnio n?o poderia restringir-se à constru??o do horizonte no qual nasce, o século XX. A inten??o de escrever lixo e bestagem, anunciada pelo narrador, aos poucos, revela um grotesco vindo de um longínquo, de um aquém. Por isto, faz-se necessário também compreender o fluxo histórico-estético que encontra acolhida na imagina??o de Hilda Hilst, cujo amparo conceitual buscou-se à estética da recep??o e do efeito. Na Teoria Estética, o feio insurge como fen?meno da realidade artística contempor?nea; refúgio de sobrevivência da arte e dos belos escritos, deixa livre à plasticidade do presente a tarefa da denúncia da realidade. Em protesto, o dissonante reivindica cidadania e se mantém como possibilidade da arte. Neste sentido, tem lugar em Hilda Hilst a atualidade do grotesco.

  影响中国古代士人心态变化的又一重要方面,是思潮。我们通常都谈到诸如两汉的儒学一尊的思想潮流、魏晋玄学、宋明理学等等对于士人的影响。这些影响是如何行的,通过什么样的渠道,轻重浅深,如何始,如何了结,似乎就有一连串的问题需要回答。我们可以对这些思潮作义理的细微辨析,但是它们如何的士人的内心,变成他们的人生取向,融他们的感情世界,我们就所知甚少。有时我常瞑想,王阳明在越,每临讲座,环坐而听者数百人,四方来学者比屋而居,每一室合食者常数十,夜无卧处,更相就席,歌声彻昏旦。阳明门人王艮讲学,听者近千。他们何所求而来?他们想些什么?他们的内心是怎样的一种境界?他们所追求的理论,是如何的融他们的人性深处?如果我们都了解了,我们也许就会看到一群活生生的人从逝去的历史中复活。我们会同其悲,同其喜。我们对于历史,就会有一种亲切感。历史就不会是一组枯燥的数字和一些事件的罗列。我们对于人生,或者就会有更深的感悟。   影响中国古代士人心态变化的又一方面,是提供给他们什么样的生活出路。现实的生活状况是决定一个人的心境的非常实在的因素。他们有什么样的生活条件,就可能产生什么样的想法。我们看明代嘉靖以后的士人,他们中的一部分人,虽也为屡试不第而苦恼,但是那苦恼又常常很快消逝。因为他们并非只有仕一途。他们还有其他的生活出路,可仕可商,可卖文卖书卖画,他们还有生存的广阔空间,有人甚至还可能获得极高的社会地位。考察他们的生活出路,有可能了解他们的心绪。

  《沉思录》是古罗马皇帝奥勒留终其一生的灵性思考,是自己与自己的心灵对话,也是对自我甚至对人类灵魂的拷问。全书十二卷,剖析了灵魂与死亡的关系,阐释了人的德行和个人对社会的责任等,表达了奥勒留身居宫廷与面对乱世的独特感悟。   《沉思录》是斯多葛派哲学思想的精髓,也是该派里程碑式的作品。古代斯多葛派的哲学精神能流传至今,并植根于近代西方文化的精神之中,可谓都仰赖于奥勒留的《沉思录》。   本书为梁实秋译本的*修订版,同时加了英文,是中英对照的全新典藏读本。

Sin
Sin
Zakhar Prilepin
¥90.03
Zakhar Prilepin’s novel-in-stories, Sin, has become a literary phenomenon in Russia, where it was published in 2007. It has been hailed as the epitome of the spirit of the opening decade of the 21st century, and was called “the book of the decade” by the prestigious Super Natsbest Award jury. Now available for the first time in English, it not only embodies the reality of post-perestroika Russia, but also shows that even in this reality, just like in any other, it is possible to maintain a positive attitude while remaining human. Zakharka is young, strong, in love with love and with life’s random, telling moments. In the episodes of his life, presented here in non-chronological order, we see him as a little boy, a lovelorn teenager, a hard-drinking grave-digger, a nightclub bouncer, a father, and a soldier in Chechnya. He even writes poetry, and his stylistically varied verses are presented in the penultimate chapter of the book. Loving life, he looks boldly, and even with curiosity, into the face of death – taking pictures of the deceased at a funeral, staring with agitation at the entrails of a just-disembowelled pig, chronicling the death of a childhood friend – and values the freedom of not fearing his own end. It is family that ultimately defines happiness for Zakharka; but it is also family that makes him realize, on the desolate Chechen border, that his love for them has deprived him of this freedom. Sin offers a fascinating glimpse into the recent Russian past, as well as its present, with its unemployment, poverty, violence, and local wars – social problems that may be found in many corners of the world. Zakhar Prilepin presents these realities through the eyes of Zakharka, taking us along on the life-affirming journey of his unforgettable protagonist.
