ابرساخت‌گرایی: فلسفه ساخت‌گرایی و پساساخت‌گرایی

by Richard Harland, فرزان سجودی (Trnslator)

Moving on from his previous book, Superstructuralism, Richard Harland argues that the focus on single words in the structuralist theory of language is its key weakness and that the next advance beyond post-structuralism depends upon replacing word-based with syntagm-based theories. In a lucid way he develops a new syntagmatic theory which shows that the effect of combining words grammatically can transform the very nature of meaning. The wide breadth of coverage in the book covers both post-Chomskyan' linguistics and Derrida, and sets up an opposition to analytic and speech-act views of language. By presenting a systematic critique and counter-proposal, Harland challenges the very foundation of recent literary and language based theory.

About the author

I was born in Yorkshire, England, then migrated to Australia at the age of twenty-one. I was always trying to write, but could never finish the stories I began. Instead I drifted around as a singer, songwriter and poet, then became a university tutor and finally a university lecturer. But after twenty-five years of writer’s block, I finally finished the cult novel, The Vicar of Morbing Vyle, and resigned my lectureship to follow my original dream.

Since then, I've had seventeen books published, all fantasy, SF or horror/supernatural, ranging from Children’s to Young Adult to Adult. My biggest success internationally has come with my YA steampunk fantasies, Worldshaker and its sequels. I've won six Aurealis Awards (Australia's Nebulas) and the Prix Tam-tam du Livre Jeunesse for Le Worldshaker.

I live with partner Aileen near Wollongong, south of Sydney, between golden beaches and green escarpment. Walking Yogi the Labrador while listening to music is my favourite relaxation—when I'm not writing like a mad workaholic, catching up on those wasted twenty-five years …

My website for The Ferren Trilogy and other books is at www.ferren.com.au. I've also put up a comprehensive 145-page guide of tips for writing fantasy fiction at www.writingtips.com.au.

کتاب متوسطی بود. پافشاری نویسنده بر هگلی بودن جریان "ابرساختگرا" هم جالب نیست. کتاب Madan Sarup خیلی کتاب بهتریه که البته ترجمه‌ی فارسیش افتضاحه.

به جای اینکه کلیت ساختارگرایی و پساساختارگرایی رو توضیح بده شروع می‌کنه قسمت‌های از اندیشه‌های اندیشمندانش رو توضیح میده غافل از اینکه کسی که ساخت‌گرایی رو بفهمه به خود متن اندیشمند رجوع می‌کنه و نیاز به این کتاب نداره.
بهره‌ای نبردم.
