  • 何穎怡:沒有現實,只有神話──兩本關於麥可.傑克森的文化評析

    文/何穎怡2019年04月10日

    光憑這雙白襪學生鞋與踮起的腳尖,你就認得這是麥可.傑克森,有誰的符號性更強呢? 新專欄介紹我曾經讀過卻一直很遺憾台灣沒有出版的書。這些書未必是文學經典,或者重量級思想巨論。有的是另闢蹊徑,對大眾文化有特別的解讀。有的特殊行業,讀者沒有機會領略他們的世界,以及他們在那個世界裡所 more
  • 【♫|何穎怡聽音樂】Man in the Mirror,我們的終極賽博格──麥可傑克森

    文/何穎怡2016年05月11日

    Michael Jackson生前如何看待鏡中的自己呢? 那天搭車聽到電台播放〈Man in the Mirror〉,麥可唱到1:11秒飆出第一個「I」時,高亢純粹完美,啊,那是我懷念的麥可美聲,我就想,X的,八千年前我就想寫一篇文章——麥可如何看待「鏡中的那個男人」呢? 也就是說,我們眼中的麥可是連 more
 

內容簡介

  普立茲文化評論獎得主由麥可傑克森的生活及音樂才華,探索他在文化及社會層面意涵。作者同時挖掘麥可傑克森形塑美國流行文化及世人持續關注麥可謎樣生活的現象。

In On Michael Jackson--an at once passionate, incisive, and bracing work of cultural analysis--Pulitzer Prize-winning critic for The New York Times Margo Jefferson brilliantly unravels the complexities of one of the most enigmatic figures of our time.

Who is Michael Jackson and what does it mean to call him a "What Is It"? What do P. T. Barnum, Peter Pan, and Edgar Allan Poe have to do with our fascination with Jackson? How did his curious Victorian upbringing and his tenure as a child prodigy on the "chitlin' circuit" inform his character and multiplicity of selves? How is Michael Jackson's celebrity related to the outrageous popularity of nineteenth-century minstrelsy? What is the perverse appeal of child stars for grown-ups and what is the price of such stardom for these children and for us? What uncanniness provoked Michael Jackson to become "Alone of All His Race, Alone of All Her Sex," while establishing himself as an undeniably great performer with neo-Gothic, dandy proclivities and a producer of visionary music videos? What do we find so unnerving about Michael Jackson's presumed monstrosity? In short, how are we all of us implicated?

In this stunning book, Margo Jefferson gives us the incontrovertible lowdown on call-him-what-you-wish; she offers a powerful reckoning with a quintessential, richly allusive signifier of American society and popular culture.
