Sontag: Her Life

內容簡介

內容簡介 蘇珊・桑塔格不只是思想家，更是二十世紀最耀眼的文化神話 首部獲准深入私人檔案的權威傳記，還原她鋒利思想與傳奇人生的真實面貌 蘇珊・桑塔格是二十世紀美國最具象徵性的知識分子之一，也是最後一位真正意義上的文學明星。她以銳利而嚴肅的思想、鮮明迷人的個人形象，以及對名人文化、攝影、Camp美學等「低文化」議題的前瞻探問，開創出無可取代的獨特位置，成為二十世紀紐約文藝魅力的象徵。作者歷時多年，進行數百場訪談，足跡遍及茂宜島、斯德哥爾摩、塞拉耶佛等地，拼湊出她複雜而立體的人生輪廓。桑塔格的摯愛安妮・萊柏維茲亦罕見受訪，提供關鍵而私密的視角；書中並收錄近百幀珍貴影像，完整呈現這位文化巨星的思想光芒與人性側影。直到今日，我們依然迫切需要桑塔格的思想。她對藝術與政治、女性主義與同性情慾、名望與風格、疾病與藥物、激進主義、法西斯主義、佛洛伊德主義、共產主義與美國文化的思考，仍是理解當代世界的重要座標。她也親歷了二十世紀多個關鍵現場：古巴革命初起、柏林圍牆倒塌、越戰轟炸下的越南、戰時以色列，以及遭圍困的塞拉耶佛。 本書不僅細讀桑塔格的作品與思想，也揭開她強大公眾形象背後更私密而脆弱的一面：破碎的親密關係、對性傾向的掙扎、自我形塑的焦慮，以及她如何一步步建構出「蘇珊・桑塔格」這個傳奇神話。這不只是最權威的傳記，更是一幅關於思想、名聲、欲望與時代的深刻肖像。 The definitive portrait of one of the twentieth century's most towering figures: her writing and her radical thought, her public activism and her private face. Susan Sontag was our last great literary star. Her brilliant, serious mind combined with her striking image, her rigorous intellectualism and her groundbreaking inquiries into what was then seen as 'low culture' - celebrity, photographs, camp - propelled her into her own unique, inimitable category and made her famous the world over, emblematic of twentieth-century New York literary glamour. Today we need her ideas more than ever. Her writing on art and politics, feminism and homosexuality, celebrity and style, medicine and drugs, radicalism, Fascism, Freudianism, Communism and Americanism, forms an indispensable guide to our modern world. Sontag was present at many of the most crucial events of the twentieth century: when the Cuban Revolution began, and when the Berlin Wall came down, in Vietnam under American bombardment, in wartime Israel and in besieged Sarajevo. Sontag tells these stories and examines her work, as well as exploring the woman behind Sontag's formidable public face: the broken relationships, the struggles with her sexuality, her agonizing construction of herself and her public myth. Sontag is the first biography based on exclusive access to her restricted personal archives and on hundreds of interviews conducted with many people around the world who spoke freely for the first time about Susan Sontag, including Annie Leibovitz. It is a definitive portrait of an endlessly complex, dazzling woman; one of the twentieth century's greatest thinkers, who lived one of its most fascinating lives.
