JOANIE MARX

John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) is perhaps the foremost economic thinker of the twentieth century. On economic theory, he ranks with Adam Smith and Karl Marx; and his impact on how economics was pract

Surrealism in China initially gained a foothold in Shanghai’s former French concession during the early 1930s, disseminated by returning Chinese students who had directly encountered the movement in Paris and Tokyo. Shanghai surrealism adopted a dialectical form, resonating with the modus operandi of the Parisian movement as well as China’s traditional belief system of Daoism. Reconciling the thought of Freud and Marx, Surrealism subsumed the multiple contradictions that divided Republican Shanghai, East and West, colonial and cosmopolitan, ancient and modern, navigating the porous boundaries that separate dream and reality. Shanghai surrealists were not rigid followers of their Parisian counterparts. Indeed, they commingled Surrealist techniques with elements of traditional Chinese iconography. Rather than revolving around a centralized group with a leader, Shanghai Surrealism was a much more diffuse entity, disseminated across copious different periodicals, avant-garde groups, and th

Is it grey-haired men in suits, shouting at each other in a weird room? Well, you’re partly right… but there’s also a whole lot of crazy stories and weird history in the political world.

From Edouard Manet’s portrait of naturalist writer Émile Zola sitting among his Japanese art finds to Van Gogh’s meticulous copies of the Hiroshige prints he devotedly collected, 19th-century pioneers of European modernism made no secret of their love of Japanese art. In all its sensuality, freedom, and effervescence, the woodblock print is single-handedly credited with the wave of japonaiserie that first enthralled France and, later, all of Europe—but often remains misunderstood as an “exotic” artifact that helped inspire Western creativity. The fact is that the Japanese woodblock print is a phenomenon of which there exists no Western equivalent.Some of the most disruptive ideas in modern art—including, as Karl Marx put it, that “all that is solid melts into air”—were invented in Japan in the 1700s and expressed like never before in the designs of such masters as Hokusai, Utamaro, and Hiroshige in the early 19th century. This book lifts the veil on a much-loved but little-understood a

民主危機當下　全民必備基本政治常識 簡單易懂　史上最暢銷的政治入門書 輕鬆帶您走入政治世界 二十週年紀念版 面對近在咫尺，卻似乎一點都摸不透的政治黑洞 面對漫天飛舞，經常被濫用誤導的政治名詞 面對似是而非，政客舌燦蘭花般詭辯式的思考邏輯 政治究竟是什麼？ 本書試圖提供一種客觀的俯瞰視野 讓您可以輕鬆地擁有看透世局未來的敏銳眼光 3段式進階、10個基本概念、8組對立視野、100個關鍵詞 作為當代政治主流，在民主世界中，最弔詭又虛幻的景象無非是：一般人雖因為擁有了投票權，大大被拉近了與政治的距離，事實上，對相關運作的常識卻往往一知半解，甚至存在大量明顯之誤會，從而埋下彼此吵嚷不休的伏筆。 為了彌補這個落差，破解隱藏在政客們艱澀難懂修辭背後的密碼，本書試圖從人類社會自然演化的歷史角度出發，幫助讀者們輕鬆地瞭解「政治」生活的來源、制度設計的理性基礎，以及它到底在日常生活當中發揮了哪些影響力，更重要的是，我們又該如何透過正面理解政治，藉此掌握自己的未來。 政治真的沒那麼難懂！  猶太裔德國哲學家　馬克思（Karl Marx） 在任何時代中，統治階級的觀念往往正是主流觀念，這亦未控制社會上主要物質力量的階級，同時也掌握了主要的知識力量。 美國開國元勳　漢彌爾頓（Alexander Hamilton） 由於人愛好權力，因此若將權力賦予多數，多數一定會壓迫少數，反之若將權力賦予少數，少數也不會放過多數。 愛爾蘭裔英國政治家　柏克（Edmund Burke） 政治運作應遷就人性，而非人的理性，理性只是人性中的一部分，而且絕非是最大的部分。 美國前總統　卡特（Jimmy Carter） 利益團體在美國政治中是一個擾亂的因素，它扭曲了我們的目標，並且使國家利益不再是我們個別利益或特別利益的總和。

當欲望跌進一條死巷，東京打開了千百個出口。日本是書寫的國度，羅蘭﹒巴特在日本邂逅了最貼近他理念與狂熱的符號系統。理解羅蘭﹒巴特及其符號學的首選入門書——從學者巴特到先鋒寫作者之間的中介★★　詹偉雄導讀　★★日本最能遠離西方符號驅力在我身上引發的一切厭惡、惱怒、拒斥。日本的符號很強烈：令人激賞地井然有序、安排得宜、標示清晰，保有自主，從不西化或理性化。日本的符號是空的：它的符徵逃逸了，在這些無償支配一切的符徵深處，無神、無真理、無道德意義。值得一提的是，在日本，到處揭示著這種符號呈現出來的優越特質、高尚的自我肯定及情欲魅力，一切表露在物品及最微不足道的舉止（那些我們通常視為毫無意義或庸鄙不堪的行為）之中。因此，符號場域將不會透過它的制度面來探求：重點不在於藝術、民間傳說，甚至是「文明」（我們不會將封建日本與現代科技的日本互為對比）。我們要探索的主題，是都市、商店、戲劇、禮儀、庭園、暴力；我們要探索的主題，是幾個動作、幾道菜、幾首詩；我們要探索的主題，是臉孔、眼睛，還有畫筆。這一切，乃是運筆寫下，而非畫下來的。——羅蘭﹒巴特一九七○年，巴特宣稱日本將是符號產製與消費的終極國度。如今，將此書置於日本戰後重新崛起、各類商品風行全球的脈絡，會發現巴特或許無心插柳，卻極為精準地預言了日本當代文化經濟的核心構成：操作符號、製造意義、深植人心。這對與日本有著深刻複雜關係的我們來說，正是重新探究日本有別於歐美、「另類現代性」的一個閱讀起點。《符號帝國》書寫的對象是日本，包羅著二十六篇短小的散文，對應著巴特一九六六至六八年三次的日本旅行，雖然巴特因旅行而寫作了這本書，但它卻完全不是一本遊記，沒有可供讀者參照的旅行景點探訪，缺乏政治、經濟、社會的觀察分析，當然也沒有旅行文學的啟蒙老梗。巴特在第一篇〈遠方〉中就坦承，他無意去寫一個真實的日本，相反地，是「日本將作者推入寫作情境」。【時代感書系】從消逝的昨日連結新生的明天為什麼此時此地，我們必須重讀此書？這是「時代感」系列最初的發問。不同領域的大師留下傳世之作，描繪當時他們所處社會樣貌、遭逢處境，將這些廣博深刻的討論置放於當前台灣與華人社會，透過重量級知識人的詮釋和細膩導讀，「時代感」系列試圖全方位地回答：「重讀此書，我們將從中獲得定位自身、前進未來的重要線索。」《共產黨宣言》｜斐特烈．恩格斯、卡爾．馬克思（Karl Marx）、艾瑞克．霍布

★ 榮獲英國政治研究會麥肯齊圖書獎（W. J. M. Mackenzie Book Prize） ★風靡歐美思想學界三十年導讀西方政治思想史經典之大作從霍布斯到馬克思的兩百餘年間，是西方政治思想成果最豐富的時期。本書系統地闡釋了這個時期最重要的一批思想家的政治思想，包括：湯瑪斯．霍布斯（Thomas Hobbes）、約翰．洛克（John Locke）、大衛．休謨（David Hume）、尚—雅克．盧梭（Jean-Jacques Rousseau）、埃德蒙．柏克（Edmund Burke）、傑瑞米．邊沁、約翰．史都華．彌爾（John Stuart Mill）、黑格爾（G.

「人類並非由意識決定他們的存有（being），相反地，是人類的社會存有決定了他們的意識。」――卡爾，馬克恩（Karl Marx）「事實證明，我們這個二十世紀比之前的任何世紀都還要殘酷，而其恐怖並不止於本世紀的前半葉而已。」――亞歷山大，索忍尼辛（Alexander Solzhenitsyn）蕭士塔高維契是二十世紀最偉大的作曲家之一，也是俄國革命之子。俄國是二十世紀裏飽受苦難的國家之一，蕭士塔高維契身屬「這個偉大而悲壯的民族」，成長於戰爭與社會動亂的陰影中。所以他在嘗試作曲之初就寫了一首名為《士兵》的龐然巨作，也就不足為奇了。他的音樂忠實地描繪了他的生活與時代。沒錯，音符不是文字，但是對蕭士塔高維契來說，音樂正是人類經驗的報導：他的作品記錄了一個多事的生活與時代，其寫實感；與聚焦的精準是攝影與電影時代所特有的。蕭士塔高維契和狄更斯、杜斯妥也夫斯基一樣，天生就特別能體恤遭受蹂躪的人性。他生來便有以音樂來回應人生的才賦，他在音樂生涯起步時，就為這種才賦找到宣洩的地方。一位時人曾說：「蕭士塔高維契音樂的哲學力量很強烈，任誰都看得出來，有一天它或許可以讓後代了解我們這個時代的精神，比起汗牛充棟的書籍還要具有說服力。」蕭士塔高維契被強調為「蘇維埃」作曲家。他對前蘇俄的忠貞無容置疑，不過他的音樂卻不盡然，而他在藝術上拒絕讓步。雄踞蘇聯樂界第一把交椅，在政界也有一席之地，並曾代表官方出國訪問，他的音樂一方面從藝術家的角度，對俄國二十世紀以來的變革做出觀察與回應；另一方面也順應蘇維埃體制的要求，為廣大的蘇維埃人民而譜寫。他的音樂植基於俄國音樂的傳統，並揉合了西方新的作曲技法，在蘇維埃的美學架構下，樹立了蘇俄主流音樂的典範，以與西方主流的前衛音樂相頡抗。他的不凡經歷或許讓他對人生與人性有異於常人的體認，並反映在他音樂的陰鬱特質之中。作者在本書中兼採英、俄文資料，這是第一次把蕭氏的交響曲、弦樂四重奏、電影配樂和其他作品放在社會政治脈絡中來探討。收錄的圖片資料範圍廣泛，從文學、學術、電影，以至家族檔案、信件，以及認識蕭氏人士的文集。

★本書獲商業周刊第1797期書摘推薦★我們遲早會面臨被顛覆的一刻你已經看見它迎面而來了嗎？ ★放掉舊藤蔓，抓住新藤蔓，像泰山一樣在叢林中飛盪。★‧音樂產業近期動盪的歷史，也為其他產業譜出琅琅上口的配樂，例如，廚房家具品牌特百惠（Tupperware）病毒式行銷策略早期的成功，以及十三世紀萊茵同盟（Rhine League）穿插著軼事和音樂的聯盟警世故事。如果這本有趣的書籍還無法在Spotify上收聽，那應該要快點錄製出來。――《金融時報》 Spotify串流音樂平台前首席經濟學家威爾‧佩奇，在英國政府機關任職多年後，終於在Spotify找到能夠讓他結合經濟專業及熱愛搖滾樂的工作，佩奇聰明地把泰山經濟學原理運用到解決音樂產業的危機。他說：音樂是第一個遭遇到數位革命破壞的產業，二十年前，CD被盜版、歌曲在被免費下載，慘不忍睹。但是音樂產業在第一個十年仍固守舊制，不肯認輸，不肯拋棄舊有的藤蔓，犯下嚴重錯誤，第二個十年才抓到新藤蔓，慢慢走出黑暗，現在幾乎已經恢復到先前的容景。音樂產業首當其衝，卻也因為置之死地而後生，所以，佩奇很希望把他在音樂及數位產業所學到的教訓讓更多人知道。現在很多產業遇到了問題，只會用鴕鳥心態來避重就輕，大家在沒有找到可行方法來支撐積弱不振的收入來源之前，不敢採納會侵蝕現有營收的開放方法。佩奇提醒我們，想像泰山一樣在叢林藤蔓中暢行無阻，就必須先認清自己真正的處境是什麼，才能做出更好的判斷，對我們前進的方向更有信心，懂得什麼時候該放手，什麼時候該前進。佩奇從Spotify串流音樂平台、電台司令（Radiohead）、星巴克和格魯喬·馬克思（Groucho Marx）等許多實際案例研究中汲取實用經驗，提出八項指導原則，像是注意力競爭、大數據可能有偏誤……等等，當我們面臨破壞，想從舊藤蔓盪到新藤蔓之時，更需要轉個方向思考，看到每一個角落，許多看不到的反而比表面看得到的東西重要。他並以「創建者」和「經營者」來比喻不同個性、不同工作內容的人：「創建者」負責創設，「經營者」負責擴張，雙方無法取代彼此的工作。若能認清自己在所屬產業中扮演的是什麼角色，了解自己的優勢，應用泰山經濟學採取行動， 接受現實並做好變革的準備，就比較容易存活，必要時，還得做好隨時重建整個組織和商業模式的打算。《泰山經濟學》是少數提供淺顯易懂且可付諸行動的「經普書籍」，任何面

Marx has changed. What we read, how we read and why we read Marx have all altered dramatically. This book explores these multiple new Marxes. In ten thematic chapters, Carver examines unfamiliar texts

These twelve original essays are 'after' Marx in several senses. The first and most obvious is the purely chronological sense: They are written one hundred years after Marx's death. The authors are therefore able to see more clearly what Marx did not or could not see and to see more clearly that which he foresaw only dimly. The second sense in which they are after Marx is political: In this century virtually all revolutionaries call themselves Marxists and purport to apply Marx's precepts to political practice. Armed with their different interpretations of a nineteenth-century theory, they have altered - and continue to reshape - the political contours of the twentieth century. Marx raised more questions than he, or anyone else, could ever reasonably hope to answer. To raise anew some of these questions and to approach them in the critical spirit of Marx's own thinking, are the common themes running through and uniting these essays.
