书籍介绍

In one of his last books, Socrates and Aristophanes, Leo Strauss's examines the confrontation between Socrates and Aristophanes in Aristophanes' comedies. Looking at eleven plays, Strauss shows that this confrontation is essentially one between poetry and philosophy, and that poetry emerges as an autonomous wisdom capable of rivaling philosophy.

Leo Strauss (1899–1973) was one of the preeminent political philosophers of the twentieth century. He is the author of many books, among them The Political Philosophy of Hobbes, Natural Right and History,and Spinoza’s Critique of Religion, all published by the University of Chicago Press.

口述之作,看来施特劳斯都能背诵阿剧了~~~
只读了frogs 部分。
搞什么,每一段如今都被拉出来写成一整篇论文了。
the funniest book by Strauss ever. Very insightful on the connection between Aristophanic politics and poetic wisdom.
依然比较意识流,但每章篇幅都不长,所以比较好把握。开篇就问了重要而独到的问题:为什么《云》以失败结局,而《鸟》和《财神》以胜利结局。对情节的关注细致入微,不时有惊人之语,但大多数解读都可以接受(可能是我最早接触施派就是通过悲剧的原因)
没意思,不就复读原文,偶尔点缀几下
苏格拉底在成为西方政治哲学奠基人之前也曾是自然哲学家。索福克勒斯时期的传统相信,在真与美、科学与艺术之间有天然的和谐。苏对理性、智识的信仰与极尽追寻,在深处同欧里庇得斯的悲剧发生共振,两相契联,震荡并击碎了传统的和谐。阿里斯托芬对此中迥异于索的精神特质了然于心,他目溯马拉松英雄时代的昔日荣光,说苏是“前所未有的最卓越的智者”,是“颓落文化”的指征。阿似乎一早就预兆了尼采的立场:重返并超越前苏格拉底的巅峰时期,要“将所有堕落的、寄生的物事一一歼灭,毫不留情”。尼采如是解读苏:知识有普遍的疗愈力量;思考令人认识并更正自我及他人;神话中的神明能被已知的自然力取代,为“更高的个人主义”服务。他评苏是“谓有世界史上仅有的漩涡和转折点”,对世界的埃斯库罗斯悲剧式的认知,因苏而毁弃,正义及虔诚皆因之震荡。
写论文的时候特意参考了一下,封面真是不忍直视。。。
