Archaeologies of the Future
Archaeologies of the Future内容简介
This is a brilliant study of utopia and science fiction, from Thomas More to Philip K. Dick, by the master literary critic. "Archaeologies of the Future", Jameson's most substantial work since "Postmodernism", investigates the development of the Utopian form since Thomas More, and interrogates the functions of Utopian thinking in a post-Communist age. The relationship between utopia and science fiction is explored through the representations of otherness...alien life and alien worlds...and a study of the works of Philip K. Dick, Ursula LeGuin, William Gibson, Brian Aldiss, Kim Stanley Robinson and more.
热门摘录
恩斯特·布洛赫以其毕生的事业提醒我们,乌托邦的全部意义,远远超过它所有文本的总和。布洛赫提出,乌托邦冲动支配了提前定位在生活和文化中的所有内容,并包罗一切:从游戏到专利药品,从神话到大众娱乐,从肖像画到技术,从建筑到性爱,从观光旅游到玩笑和无意识。
Desire is permanently scandalous precisely because it admits of no "solution" —promiscuity, repression, or the couple all being equally intolerable.
