“那時候,你還很年輕,人人都說你美。現在,我是特意來告訴你,對我來說,我覺得現在的你比年輕的時候更美。與你那時的面貌相比,我更愛你現在備受摧殘的面容。”
瑪格麗特·杜拉斯的《情人》是一部關于愛與欲望、殖民與階級、身份與他者、西貢與巴黎的經典著作。杜拉斯書寫了貫穿一生的愛情,那既是熾烈如火又溫柔似水的體驗,既是自我確立又是自我毀滅的過程。她以沉默訴說不可言說之事,展現留白的巨大張力。
欲望是火,文字是墨。
在杜拉斯灼熱的筆觸下,愛欲從不以完滿示人——它破碎、矛盾、帶著殖民地的濕熱與巴黎的冷霧,卻因此更接近真實的生命。
三明治的老朋友Nazli即將回歸,帶來“城市·記憶·欲望”系列的第三個工作坊,聚焦于“欲望”。這次工作坊延長至六周,其中4周為文本研讀課,2周為寫作實踐課。我們將延續前兩期的探索,通過文學與生活的雙重視角,審視城市、記憶與欲望的共生關系。本課程將精讀杜拉斯的《情人》(原著及電影改編),并輔以波德萊爾、蘭波、卡瓦菲斯、王鷗行等詩人的詩作。
課程將采用文本與影像對照研讀法,逐場解析敘事場景。每堂課配有專屬主題曲——來自萊昂納德·科恩的經典作品,其灼熱詩性與杜拉斯的文字力量交相輝映。
在欲望書寫的學習中,電影將教會我們如何運用影像、密閉空間、城市與地景,而原著則傳授細節篩選、記憶重構、情感命名的要義。我們將學習如何從集體情欲經驗中剝離個人敘事,詩歌與音樂的研習不僅提供創作工具,更將激發我們尋找精準、優美且鋒利如刀的文字表達。
寫作技法部分將重點參考杜拉斯《寫作》和維林·克林肯博格《關于寫作的若干短句》。另提供羅蘭·巴特《戀人絮語》與米歇爾·德·塞托《日常生活實踐》作為拓展閱讀。

Guidelines
I will encourage and expect personal interpretations from all of you, which means you will have to trust yourself and give up the temptation to support your ideas with secondary sources. Just as importantly, you will listen to and work with other interpretations that may be very different from yours with maturity and respect. In my classes, all interpretations, comments, questions, and mindful musings are valid and encouraged as long as they are respectful and honest, and do not attack a person, race, or sexual orientation. We want to learn how to interpret texts in intellectual and creative ways even when the approaches may be much different than our own. I hope that the texts I provide and our reading discussions will help create the personal foundations of literary taste in each of you. When you learn to recognize good literature, you come that much closer to creating it.
Office hours
I am always here to talk! I will be available on Wednesdays and/or any other day that might work better for you. Remember to make an appointment, and we’ll take it from there. You may use office hours to ask questions about my comments and suggestions for your writing, to ask and share questions and observations about the readings, and much more. It’s my pleasure to continue our conversation outside the virtual classroom.
