BOSTON — Scott Brown, a little-known Republican state senator, rode an old
pickup truck and a growing sense of unease among independent voters to an
extraordinary upset Tuesday night when he was elected to fill the Senate
seat that was long held by Edward M. Kennedy in the overwhelmingly
Democratic state of Massachusetts.
By a decisive margin, Mr. Brown defeated Martha Coakley, the state’s
Democratic attorney general, who had been considered a prohibitive fa |

补充一些背景:
-- 老头是VP带来的,以前就跟着VP干。老头平时说话都是特笑眯眯那种,有点假模假
式挺装腔那种,特冠冕堂皇,不会让人抓把柄。这一次你要说他直接攻击或者针对我,
可能有点牵强。但是难得白纸黑字落在email里,并且我要说让我这个唯一的亚洲人觉
得不爽了别人也不能说我无理取闹,所以我觉得机会难得,得敲打一下。但是,我如果
要闹到HR那去,就是给VP难堪了。VP和小老板都对我还不错的,也不想闹僵。
-- 我在公司的形象,就是认真干活那种,比较温和,也随和,跟大家都相处不错,能
开开玩笑,老板总是说我too nice。所以这件事,我要让大家知道我不满,但是还要披
着温和的外衣,不想让人突然觉得啊这么厉害原来平时随和都是假的。
-- 另外,我非常不善于和人斗争,真要闹起来,势必占用我极大的精力和时间来应付
。我在这个公司,只想把目前感兴趣的项目做好,多学点东西长点经验,然后准备换地

M*****g 发帖数: 1054 | 19 终于在库切出新书之前把所有的作品都大致读完了。写感想是件很困难的事情。也不知
道为什么我曾经起过个头,所以还是马虎做个尾吧。主要谈"等待野蛮人"。
主题*
库切几乎所有的小说都可以归到同一个主题上:awakening。此处的觉醒不是某贵族公
子突然察觉到人民疾苦而决定参加革命与本阶级一刀两断的觉醒。这种以阶级或者种族
的二分法来形容库切是很武断的。他选择的主人公几乎全是知识分子,是在某种程度上
具有某种优越感的,是典型意义上的"文明人",但同时自我又受着体制与意识形态的侵
犯压迫。在通过一系列事件之后,主人公们对"野蛮人们" - "Age of Iron" 里的黑人
孩子和流浪者,"Disgrace"里的强奸犯,还有"waiting for the barbarians"里从未出
现的野蛮人- 产生极为复杂的认知与反思。这个认知又不是仅仅建立在谁对谁错,谁
代表公正谁不代表上的,或者简单的怜悯与同情。
这认知进而生出库切认为人性中最深刻,也是唯一有可能通向高尚的可能:羞耻。
革命小说里贵族公子们觉醒后就光荣地参加革命去了。而在库切的哲学里,羞耻是无法
被救赎的。记得以前从哪里读到过库切... 阅读全帖 |
