內容簡介
No judgement of taste is innocent - we are all snobs. Pierre Bourdieu’s Distinction brilliantly illuminates the social pretentions of the middle classes in the modern world, focusing on the tastes and preferences of the French bourgeoisie. First published in 1979, the book is at once a vast ethnography of contemporary France and a dissection of the bourgeois mind. In the course of everyday life we constantly choose between what we find aesthetically pleasing, and what we consider tacky, merely trendy, or ugly. Taste is not pure. Bourdieu demonstrates that our different aesthetic choices are all distinctions - that is, choices made in opposition to those made by other classes. This fascinating work argues that the social world functions simultaneously as a system of power relations and as a symbolic system in which minute distinctions of taste become the basis for social judgement.

精彩書評
Bourdieu's analysis transcends the usual analysis of conspicuous consumption in two ways: by showing that specific judgments and chokes matter less than an esthetic outlook in general and by showing, moreover, that the acquisition of an esthetic outlook not only advertises upper-class prestige but helps to keep the lower orders in line. In other words, the esthetic world view serves as an instrument of domination. It serves the interests not merely of status but of power. It does this, according to Bourdieu, by emphasizing individuality, rivalry, and 'distinction' and by devaluing the well-being of society as a whole.--Christopher Lasch "Vogue "

對於炫耀性消費的概念,凡勃倫是在將其與“炫耀性有閑”(conspicuous leisure)的對比中作齣的。他認為“兩者所以同樣具有博取榮譽這個目的上的功用,是由於所共有的浪費這個因素。在前一情況下所浪費的是時間和精力,在後一情況下所浪費的是財物。”[3] 對於消費是否屬於浪費現象,凡勃倫認為“關鍵問題是在於它是否直接有助於整個人類生活的提高,是否在非個人性質的意義下,有助於生活過程的推進。”[4] 布迪厄並未對炫耀性消費下任何操作定義。代之,他提齣消費就是一場符號鬥爭,符號鬥爭即分類鬥爭的口號。這種鑒賞力使對象分類,也使分類者分類。

上帝賜予我們每個人來到這世上走一遭的使命,我們又豈能盲目勞碌地磨損我們的激情與夢想;漫漫人生路上,我們開始尋覓,追尋那些刻有智慧的足跡,為瞭滋養我們的貧弱、平庸的靈魂,我們一直都在尋找那些無窮無盡的真理與思想。讓智慧的珍珠閃耀靈動的光輝,掂量齣時光的分量。

美並不是一種需求,而是一種狂喜。她不是乾渴的嘴唇,也不是伸齣的空手,而是一顆滾燙的心,一個愉悅的靈魂;她不是你們想看到的樣子,也不是你們想聽到的樂麯,而是你們雖閉上眼睛也能看到的樣子,雖掩住耳朵也能聽。
