埃利亚斯·卡内蒂（Elias Canetti，19O5～）的国籍问题，至今众说纷坛，这与他一生游踪不定有关。他生于保加利亚北部鲁斯丘克（今鲁塞），祖父是居住在西班牙的犹太人，父母以经商为业。8岁丧父，随母迁至维也纳，先后在苏黎世、法兰克福等地求学，大学毕业获哲学博士学位。由于从小就酷爱艺术，对犹太教、商业活动深感厌恶，卡内蒂潜心研究文学、历史，并开始写作。 1938年，德国法西斯侵占奥地利，卡内蒂流亡法国，辗转至英国，定居伦敦并加入英国国籍，但他一直用德语写作。我国翻译界倾向于把他归属于奥地利或英国德语作家。 卡内蒂自幼受母亲影响颇深。德国文学，尤其是歌德对他一生的创作影响很大，乃至被称为“一个生活在2O世纪里的18世纪的作家”。此外，卡夫卡也给他很大影响，他们是至交。卡内蒂早年攻读过自然科学，这又使他喜好以冷峻的态度表现精神与现实的冲突，特别喜好剖...(展开全部)

Equally fascinating is the very large body of film criticism Truffaut wrote over many years for Cahiers du Cinema and...(展开全部)

Cities envelop the countryside, not only geographically and demographically but also in terms of cultural impact. Robin Visser illuminates the cultural dynamics of three decades of radical urban dev...(展开全部)

The gap between those living in the city and those in the countryside remains one of China's most intractable problems. As this powerful work of grassroots history argues, the origins of China's rural-urban divide can be traced back to the Mao Zedong era. While Mao pledged to remove the gap between the city worker and the peasant, his revolutionary policies misfired and ended u...(展开全部)
