书籍介绍
在理论术语泛滥、批评日益'价值化'的今天,海伦·文德勒像一位固执的守夜人:她拒绝从'意义'滑向'价值',坚持让作品自己说话。这本书的真正分量,不在它覆盖了艾略特、普拉斯还是洛威尔,而在她提供了一种近乎'手工活'的读法——把每首诗当作一个独特的句法现场,追问它如何'把寻常音调奏出新鲜'。读者最见仁见智处正在于此:有人爱她'如实言说发生过的事'的锋利判断,也有人嫌她理性成分过重、不够亲切。它不适合寻求'如何欣赏诗歌'速成指南的人,却适合那些愿意相信:单凭对一句诗法的耐心,就能触到一个人不可替代的声音。

精彩摘录
  • "It took me some time for me to discover that poetry--especially modern poetry--did not seem accessible or natural to many readers; this gulf in understanding prompted the substance and tone of most of my reviews. My own preference is to focus on poets one by one, to find in each the idiosyncratic vo"
  • "The preeminent question life asked of Stevens was whether the sublime was livable. Steven's sense of the world became one of extreme relativity, and an almost killing skepticism arose in him about his own statements, even those most deeply felt.

  • "the "awful but cheerful" activities of the world include the acts by which man domesticates his surroundings, even if those surroundings are purely mechanical, like the filing station or the truck in Brazil painted with "throbbing rosebuds".
