——读《我幻想着粉碎现有的一切》琐记 桑塔格说,认知的欲望——就像肉体欲望一样,并且经常成为肉体欲望的模仿品或复制品。肉体欲望先于认知,但是认知使肉体欲望升华。就欲望本身而言,与道德层面无关。《疾病的隐喻》实际上是对这一观点的引申。疾病本身会对人体造成痛苦,...
评分“做睿智的人,那是我唯一的存在方式。运用我的心灵,令我感觉积极。这样很好。”苏珊•桑塔格如是说。并且,她也用自己真实的行走践行了这样的言语。在读过的诸多访谈类的书籍中,《我幻想着粉碎现有的一切——苏珊•桑塔格访谈录》无疑是有深度的一本。在很大程度上...
评分 评分这几天早晨,走进储藏室骑电动车时,我总会想起“今天是你余生中最年轻的一天”,便会觉得阵阵悲伤——我最好的一天又过去了,并没有收获什么,而且我还要每天重复这样一种悲伤,就更令人难受了。我觉得自己就像个倒霉蛋一样被这想法攥紧了,或者说是被一种常识给绑架了。如此...
评分桑塔格的一生,始终与争议相伴。在那个令人生畏、固执己见和广纳博采的面具背后,是另一个桑塔格,更温和、更脆弱。我们对她仅仅略知一二。这本书展现了她的思想:“我幻想着粉碎现有的一切,用一个没有人知道的笔名从头再来。我会很喜欢那样做,卸下鲜有作品的包袱,一切重新...

“One of my oldest crusades is against the distinction between thought and feeling, which is really the basis of all anti-intellectual views: the heart and the head, thinking and feeling, fantasy and judgment . . . and I don’t believe it’s true. . . . I have the impression that thinking is a form of feeling and that feeling is a form of thinking.”
Susan Sontag, one of the most internationally renowned and controversial intellectuals of the latter half of the twentieth century, still provokes. In 1978 Jonathan Cott, a founding contributing editor of Rolling Stone magazine, interviewed Sontag first in Paris and later in New York. Only a third of their twelve hours of discussion ever made it to print. Now, more than three decades later, Yale University Press is proud to publish the entire transcript of Sontag’s remarkable conversation, accompanied by Cott’s preface and recollections.
Sontag’s musings and observations reveal the passionate engagement and breadth of her critical intelligence and curiosities at a moment when she was at the peak of her powers. Nearly a decade after her death, these hours of conversation offer a revelatory and indispensable look at the self-described "besotted aesthete" and "obsessed moralist."
“I really believe in history, and that’s something people don’t believe in anymore. I know that what we do and think is a historical creation. . . .We were given a vocabulary that came into existence at a particular moment. So when I go to a Patti Smith concert, I enjoy, participate, appreciate, and am tuned in better because I’ve read Nietzsche.”
“There’s no incompatibility between observing the world and being tuned into this electronic, multimedia, multi-tracked, McLuhanite world and enjoying what can be enjoyed. I love rock and roll. Rock and roll changed my life. . . .You know, to tell you the truth, I think rock and roll is the reason I got divorced. I think it was Bill Haley and the Comets and Chuck Berry that made me decide that I had to get a divorce and leave the academic world and start a new life.”
Susan Sontag had a 12 hours of conversation with Jonathan Cott in the October 4, 1979. They, or Sontag mostly, expressed their opinions on and thoughts of cancer and mortality, the music of R&R, cultural feminism, writing and living in NYC. I admire her not only her literary criticism, also her personality. Like a mentor, a mother never existed.
评分"I hate seeing myself as a victim. It was my choice, and I don't like blaming other people because it's so much easier to change oneself than to change other people." That's why I adore this woman so much!
评分"There should always be freelance people who, however quixotic it may be, are trying to lop off a couple of more heads, trying to destroy hallucination and falsehood and demagogy - and making things more complicated, because there's an inevitable drift towards making things more simple."
