【內容簡介】
愛里亞斯在《臨終者的孤寂》一書中討論生死，回顧過去與當代的人們對待臨終者的差異，生者與死者（或「生與死」、或「生者的生活空間與死者的墓地」）的距 離由近而遠。愛里亞斯認為，臨終者之所以孤單，非但是一種心理狀態，也有不同的歷史文化作為背景。社會的隔離機構，例如養老院，將老人與他原本熟悉的生活 環境隔離開來，於是更加深孤寂的感覺。書末，作者提醒我們，生理治療在今日或許已是一個重要環節──主要在於挽救臨終者的性命，但臨終者所需的心理上的關愛，或許能使瀕死的過程更溫暖一些。

幾年前在YouTube看些Norbert Elias的相關片子.
我幾年之後重翻此書. 年紀大點. 更了解書中所言. Elias是姓有人則用作名.
他的一些重要著作有翻譯. 說不定可找出來一讀
唯一缺點是沒有參考英譯本弄出簡單索引. 它可告訴我們許多事情. 諸如"消解"的意思 (頁95等)

other cultures around the globe, and for thousands of years, people
have stayed in their homes to die, looked after by their family and
local community. We want to see a return to this' (via Guardian Life & style)

often seek support to bring a new life into the world, but what about

"A fellow of mediocre talent will remain a mediocrity, whether he travels or not; but one of superior talent (which without impiety I cannot deny that I possess) will go to seed if he always remains in the same place."
-- Mozart in a letter to Leopold Mozart (11 September 1778)
Mozart's remarkable life was well and richly documented in letters: his own and those concerning him written by others. This volume brings together a fascinating selection, giving us a detailed portrait of the composer's life and times. Here are letters to and from Mozart's domineering father, Leopold, the earliest of which, addressed to a friend, describes the six-year-old Mozart's accomplishments. There is also a letter sent to the Royal Society in London from one of its members describing an astonishing encounter with the eight-year-old prodigy. Here are letters from the adolescent Mozart to his mother and sister; adoring, protective missives to his wife; and, from his later years, letter after letter to friends, family, former patrons, and fellow musicians begging for financial help.Mozart's correspondence is full of details that illuminate the quotidien aspects of his days, reveal the great joys and burdens of his musical genius, and provide us with a lively account of the musical politics in the courts and opera houses of eighteenth-century Europe. Finally, in a letter written by Mozart's sister-in-law, this splendid epistolary portrait of the great composer is completed with a deeply moving account of his last hours.

"Mozart's need for love had grown uncertain of itself in early childhood. His feeling of being unloved found constant confirmation in his changing experiences over the years, and the intensity of his unsatisfied desire to be loved, detectable as a dominant wish throughout his life, very largely determined what had meaning for him and what did not."--From the book
One of the most important social thinkers of our time provides a haunting portrait of Mozart's life and creative genius. German sociologist Norbert Elias examines the paradoxes in Mozart's short existence--his brilliant creativity and social marginality, his musical sophistication and personal crudeness, his breathtaking accomplishments and deep despair.
Using psychoanalytic insights, Elias examines Leopold Mozart's carefully honed ambitions for his son and protege. From the age of six Mozart traveled with his father, performing in the major courts throughout Europe. The elder Mozart worked on his son "like a sculptor on his sculpture," and this deep bond formed the lietmotif in understanding Mozart's early talent and complicated psyche.
Mozart chafed at the constraints of Viennese courtly culture. Growing up in a society which viewed musicians as manual laborers producing entertainment for the court, he fought for an independent livelihood. Vienna's aristocracy ultimately turned its back on the composer, who faced mounting debts, no work, and no prospect of fulfilling his innermost desires. He died feeling that his life had become empty of meaning.
Elias ponders the concept of genius, which he sees as a complex marriage of fantasy, inspiration, and convention. In exploring the tension between personal creativity and the tastes of an era, he gives us a book of startling insight and discovery.
