作为一种批评概念的“晚期风格”——萨义德对身体状况和美学风格关系的思考

Taking "Late Style" as a Critical Concept——On Said's Thoughts About the Relation Between Physical Condition and Aesthetic Style

"晚期风格"是萨义德晚年思考的核心问题,更是理解他晚期思想的关键。萨义德明确界定了"晚期风格",并通过高雅文化、通俗文化和艺术名家等三种话语策略证明了"晚期风格"的自我放逐特征。他将"晚期风格"作为一种向死而生的美学类型,认为它是艺术家以曲折的方式来表达对日益临近的死亡的思考、体验和审美超越。

Late Style is a core issue in Edward W.Said＇s thoughts at his old age,and also a key to understand his thoughts late in his life.Said explicitly defines Late Style and proves its self-exiled character through three discursive strategies which are high culture,popular culture and well-known artist.As an aesthetic style of dying towards living,he regards his Late Style as an aesthetic transcendence for artists think and taste their coming death.
