Silence (Movie Tie-in Ed.)

內容簡介

內容簡介 我非沉默著，而是一起受苦。一九九六年九月二十九日，一生為天主服務、奉獻的遠藤周作先生離開人世，回到主的身旁，家人遵奉遺言把《沉默》和《深河》放入棺中陪伴遠藤；這代表了遠藤對其文學創作的評價與總結。其實，這兩本書除了他自認為是自己的代表作之外，它們同時還被公認為是二十世紀日本文學的代表作。《深河》是遠藤生前最後的著作，獲得極高的評價。《沉默》則發表於一九六九年，是探討遠藤文學的最重要作品之一，評價極高，榮獲第二屆谷崎潤一郎獎，其中探討基督宗教在東方社會紮根時面臨的問題，包含東西方文化的差異等等。之所以取名為「沉默」，理由有二：(一)反抗歷史的沉默；(二)探索神的沉默。故事發生在德川幕府時代禁教令下長崎附近的小村子，一個葡萄牙耶穌會的教士偷渡到日本傳教，並調查恩師因遭受「穴吊」而宣誓棄教一事，因為這事在當時歐洲人的眼中，不只是個人的挫折，同時也是整個歐洲信仰、思想的恥辱和失敗。在傳教與尋訪的過程中，信仰與反叛、聖潔與背德、強權與卑微、受難與恐懼、堅貞與隱忍、掙扎與超脫……所有的兩難情境都面臨了，逼迫著他對基督的信仰進行更深層且更現實的思索，最終，他彷彿也走過一趟恩師的心路歷程，擁有自己對信仰的詮釋與實踐。在近代日本文學中居承先啟後地位的遠藤周作，一生獲獎無數，著作等身，曾獲芥川獎、新潮社文學獎、每日出版文學獎、谷崎潤一郎獎、野間文學獎等，一九九五年更榮獲日本文化勳章。摘自立緒文化事業有限公司出版《沉默》Shusaku Endo's classic novel of enduring faith in dangerous times, soon to be a major motion picture directed by Martin Scorsese, starring Andrew Garfield, Liam Neeson, and Adam Driver"Silence I regard as a masterpiece, a lucid and elegant drama."-The New York Review of BooksSeventeenth-century Japan: Two Portuguese Jesuit priests travel to a country hostile to their religion, where feudal lords force the faithful to publicly renounce their beliefs.
