打开电视,女性要么扮演花瓶,要么是不择手段的生存者,似乎世界的游戏规则是按照男人的权力来设计的。 在当下的社会语境中,人们对于成功男性的接受度似乎更高,而对女性的期待则是“可爱”和“温柔”,其核心价值在于“被保护、被选择”。于是,优秀和强大的女性不得不选择收...

Why the popular resonance of 'mansplaining' (despite the intense dislike of the term felt by many men)? It hits home for us because it points straight to what it feels like not to be taken seriously: a bit like when I get lectured on Roman history on Twitter.
Britain's best-known classicist Mary Beard, is also a committed and vocal feminist. With wry wit, she revisits the gender agenda and shows how history has treated powerful women. Her examples range from the classical world to the modern day, from Medusa and Athena to Theresa May and Elizabeth Warren. Beard explores the cultural underpinnings of misogyny, considering the public voice of women, our cultural assumptions about women's relationship with power, and how powerful women resist being packaged into a male template.
With personal reflections on her own experiences of the sexism and gendered aggression she has endured online, Mary asks: if women aren't perceived to be within the structures of power, isn't it power that we need to redefine?
From the author of international bestseller SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome.
啊哟,看的时候头痛好多古罗马古希腊典故,看完才发现其实是看过的纪录片里出没的古典学大佬。两篇内容不算很多,说是manifesto倒很贴切。指出何为power(被看到,可改变与话语权比起占据社会金字塔尖更重要)很受启发。发现后浪19年三月出了译本。。。
评分很短的LRB Lecture讲稿整理。由她最拿手的古典学着手,追溯女性话语权利被压制的源头,Penelope意图劝回追求者时,Tlemachus对她说:妈妈,回去做你自己的事吧,在公开场合说话是男人的事,也即是我做主。女性被压制不可在公共场合言说,保持沉默才是”美德”。1尽管我们有了女政治家、女知识分子,但即便是elite如同她们,声音依旧会被忽视。2参考男女辩论后的社会反应(想起上次BBC对谈中所谓的JP打脸CN),即便双方都有问题,更多更难听的指责也都是针对女性的,甚至:声音难听。3作者认为应将power的范围扩大,不仅仅narrow于政治领袖或公司CEO。
评分B姨这个副标题写着a manifesto,但实际又是讲座整理的,从宣传来讲跟马派的那种差着好几个段位。从知识来讲,不足之处还是明显的。就拿第二篇里的美杜莎来说,以她的形象来装饰盾牌的古希腊步兵和把克林顿ps到卡拉瓦乔画上的欧美老中青年在心理上显然天差地别,这不是提一句弗洛伊德就够了的。想要“to change the structure”,必然要先认清现有结构,如此以来光靠时间带来的陌生化不能算是一种聪明的写作了。所以虽然B姨公知的名号越来越响,但真正见到灵感的,还是她做学问的那些东西。

评分将古希腊故事作为观点例证有新意。 (连续几天晚上睡前强撑着看一小会儿,有个生词出现了很多次,查了三遍我才记住,我这个脑袋真是让人智息
