Abstract

Abstract:This essay presents a refreshing reading of Bertolt Brecht's Stories of Mr. Keuner through the lens of classical Chinese dialectics. Through careful analysis, I uncover not only interesting resonances between Brecht's stories and classical Chinese philosophy but also intriguing dialectic tensions between individual and clusters of stories in the collection, and between Brecht (the man, the artist, and his dramatic oeuvre) and Mr. Keuner (Mr. Nobody), his philosophical alter ego, as the titular character dialogues with his many interlocutors on momentous issues such as knowledge, power, justice, fatherland, and more.
无名先生这样说从中国古典辩证法的角度看布莱希特的《库纳先生的故事
摘要:本文通过中国古典辩证法的视角,对布莱希特的《库纳先生的故事》进行了令人耳目一新的解读。通过仔细分析,我不仅发现了布莱希特的故事与中国古典哲学之间有趣的共鸣,还发现了故事集中单个故事与故事集群之间,以及布莱希特(他本人、艺术家及其戏剧作品)与他的哲学化身库纳先生(无名先生)之间耐人寻味的辩证张力。

期刊介绍: For more than a quarter century, Philosophy and Literature has explored the dialogue between literary and philosophical studies. The journal offers a constant source of fresh, stimulating ideas in the aesthetics of literature, theory of criticism, philosophical interpretation of literature, and literary treatment of philosophy. Philosophy and Literature challenges the cant and pretensions of academic priesthoods by publishing an assortment of lively, wide-ranging essays, notes, and reviews that are written in clear, jargon-free prose. In his regular column, editor Denis Dutton targets the fashions and inanities of contemporary intellectual life.
