1.1M0

"Language and Silence": George Steiner's masterpiece and a classic work of Western humanistic criticism in the 20th century. The core issues of this book are language, literary criticism and humanism (and anti-humanism); "The Destruction of Sacred Truth" is the essence of Harold Bloom's Norton lectures at Harvard University. In the context of Christian and Jewish beliefs, Bloom mainly comments from three perspectives, namely the inheritance of predecessors, the writer's unique originality and the influence on future generations; "The Mad Woman in the Attic": When Jane Eyre and Rochester transcended the differences in status and finally wanted to swear a union, the appearance of a mad woman shattered all Jane Eyre's dreams. She was Rochester's wife who had been locked in the attic. She destroyed the manor, blinded Rochester, and died in the fire, but she also fulfilled Jane Eyre and Rochester.
