內容簡介
本書係鬼才三島由紀夫被提名諾貝爾文學獎的主要代表作，曾被翻譯成十三國國文字，公認是最具象徵性、最耐人尋的一部傑作。書中描寫一個天生口吃的青年僧侶的惱以及對生存的詛咒，最後為擺脫美的觀念的羈絆，以致縱火焚燒金閣寺。三島之切腹之自殺，或者將成為文壇上難解的謎題，從本書中三島對「南泉斬貓」一般公案所持的見解，我們或可窺出這一代奇才因追尋心目中的美，以致「走火入魔」而「斬斷紅塵世界」的心路歷程。
Yukio Mishima was born Kimitake Hiraoka in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan on this day in 1925.
"What transforms this world is — knowledge. Do you see what I mean? Nothing else can change anything in this world. Knowledge alone is capable of transforming the world, while at the same time leaving it exactly as it is. When you look at the world with knowledge, you realize that things are unchangeable and at the same time are constantly being transformed."
— from THE TEMPLE OF THE GOLDEN PAVILION (1959)
In The Temple of the Golden Pavilion, celebrated Japanese novelist Yukio Mishima creates a haunting portrait of a young man’s obsession with idealized beauty and his destructive quest to possess it fully. Mizoguchi, an ostracized stutterer, develops a childhood fascination with Kyoto’s famous Golden Temple. While an acolyte at the temple, he fixates on the structure’s aesthetic perfection and it becomes his one and only object of desire. But as Mizoguchi begins to perceive flaws in the temple, he determines that the only true path to beauty lies in an act of horrific violence. Based on a real incident that occurred in 1950, The Temple of the Golden Pavilion brilliantly portrays the passions and agonies of a young man in postwar Japan, bringing to the subject the erotic imagination and instinct for the dramatic moment that marked Mishima as one of the towering makers of modern fiction. With an introduction by Donald Keene; Translated from the Japanese by Ivan Morris.
The Temple of the Golden Pavilion (
金閣寺 Kinkaku-ji) is a novel by the Japanese author
Yukio Mishima. It was published in 1956 and translated into English by
Ivan Morris in 1959.
The novel is loosely based on the burning of the Reliquary (or Golden Pavilion) of
Kinkaku-jiin
Kyoto by a young
Buddhist acolyte in 1950. The pavilion, dating from before 1400, was a national monument that had been spared destruction many times throughout history, and the arson shocked Japan.
