Terry Eagleton is Distinguished Professor of Literature, University of Lancaster, UK, and Excellence in English Distinguished Visiting Professor, University of Notre Dame. One of the most influential literary critics in the English-speaking world, he is the author of more than 40 books on literary theory, postmodernism, politics, ideology, and religion, among them his best-selling Literary Theory: An Introduction. He lives in Northern Ireland, UK.
What makes a work of literature good or bad? How freely can the reader interpret it? Could a nursery rhyme like Baa Baa Black Sheep be full of concealed loathing, resentment and aggression? In this accessible, delightfully entertaining book, Terry Eagleton addresses these intriguing questions and a host of others. How to Read Literature is the book of choice for students new to the study of literature and for all other readers interested in deepening their understanding and enriching their reading experience. In a series of brilliant analyses, Eagleton shows how to read with due attention to tone, rhythm, texture, syntax, allusion, ambiguity, and other formal aspects of literary works. He also examines broader questions of character, plot, narrative, the creative imagination, the meaning of fictionality, and the tension between what works of literature say and what they show. Unfailingly authoritative and cheerfully opinionated, the author provides useful commentaries on classicism, Romanticism, modernism and postmodernism along with spellbinding insights into a huge range of authors, from Shakespeare and Jane Austen to Samuel Beckett and J. K. Rowling.

關於怎麼閱讀文學的書,市麵上已經有不少,多一本不算多。特裏·伊格爾頓老爺子就此自嘲:“文學分析這個行當,就像穿著木屐跳舞,快要跳不動瞭。本書企圖藉助對文學形式和技巧的細察,在馳援的隊伍裏湊個數”。這本書關注文學的開頭、人物、敘事、解讀、價值五個方麵。這些是...
評分書名叫“閱讀指南”但並不是好像很火的那本《如何閱讀一本書》的風格,從內容上來看的話,會更像托馬斯. 福斯特的《如何閱讀一本小說》與《如何閱讀一本文學書》。 這本書主要分為“開頭”“人物”“敘事”“解讀”“價值”五章,每章論述一些相關問題。伊格爾頓從第一句話開始...
評分LSL/文 伊格爾頓,這位當今西方馬剋思主義理論界的三駕馬車之一,在寫完《理論之後》之後,對理論感到深深的厭倦,可慣性仍驅使著他不停地寫齣一本又一本理論著作,以維係“文學理論傢”的頭銜。伊格爾頓連“文學理論傢”的頭銜也感到深深的厭倦,就如他對長久以來背負的“政...

其實我的《打開文學的方式:文學解讀講義》http://read.douban.com/column/1004370/,和這個,和 J. Hillis Miller 的 On Literature (中譯《文學死瞭嗎》),和剛剛看到的有一本 How to Read Literature Like a Professor (《教你讀懂文學的27堂課》),不都是在做同樣的深入淺齣的工作麼?自信於自己講義的優勢,在於紮根於漢語言閱讀經驗,不葛,不在英文語言文化裏麵打轉兒。而在對文學 in general 的把握上,英雄所見略同。
評分最近讀到的最好的一本書。每個學文學專業的都應該讀一下。而且非常幽默。
評分一把年紀瞭還這麼毒舌
評分又一個超級毒舌的作者……
評分伊格爾頓太有意思瞭,毒舌而風趣。本書很適閤文學入門,舉的例子都很大眾,感覺好於《Aspects of Novel》。Opening部分意料之中地提瞭Austen,意料之外地沒提《雙城記》和《局外人》。Value部分很《二十世紀西方文學理論》。
