建筑的意义

建筑是介于设计和某种空间组织形式(建造一个建筑物或是布置一

个公园)之间的一个过程。建筑艺术可以被视作一种交流的媒介或

者一种语言形式。并且和语言一样,建筑艺术可以是散文,也可以

是诗歌。比如,一个简单的花园小棚,其功能可以说是遮风避雨和

储藏物品。即使存在着一些地方性的差异和不同的阐释(英国的花

园小棚与美国的是不一样的),这种小棚的建筑语言就是质朴的散文。

但是,建筑艺术和诗一样,同样可以有深刻的含义,不同的建筑形

式也会在同一个空间相互重叠。只要瞻仰过欧洲哥特式大教堂的人,都能悟出那高耸入云的墙上层层交织的细节、材料和形状,这些让

其意义变得复杂。这样的设计效果就是要让在地上的人抬头仰望,

遥想苍穹。

建筑,作为一个过程、一种手段,有着多重意义。就算不一定能做到,那么多的建筑艺术还是一心一意要给人创造满足感。这种满足

感可能是形式和功能的完美结合所带来的。里约热内卢和孟买的棚

户区向我们展示了一种构成有机整体的建筑,他们没有既定的规划,也没有什么逻辑,但它们可以为居民遮风挡雨,为他们提供安身之所。如果没有这些棚屋,他们就得露宿街头。

在20世纪60及70年代,英国的建筑师们在英国的各个城市设计

并建造了公寓塔楼。他们的目标大概是最大化地节省空间同时取悦

住户。这些塔楼是钢筋混凝土的方形结构,二三十层拔地而起,直

插英国阴云密布的天空,选址几乎不顾及对环境的影响。尽管如此,

使这些建筑遭批判的并不是它们难看的外观或材料,而是因为这种

建筑没有花园、没有商店、没有社区的感觉,正是这一点使得那些

建筑师重新定义都市生活的理想主义尝试遭遇挑战,并最终失败。

世界各地还有很多其他类似的人造建筑。圆顶冰屋——格凌兰岛上

用冰雪建成的圆顶房屋——是世界上最简单但又最具独创性的建筑

之一,它说明功能性建筑也能富有吸引力。与之相比,圣彼得堡的

凯萨琳宫美得动人心魄,它色彩炫丽,气势恢宏,它所采用的建筑

语言对任何一个受过教育的欧洲人来说都一目了然。

好的建筑所产生的另一个意义是力量。摩天大楼是现代的产物,它

再次把人们的视线引向天空。工程技术上的进步和新材料的出现,

如钢架结构、电力、钢筋混凝土、快速安全的电梯等等,使人类能

够挑战上帝而主导天空。纽约的标志是摩天大楼,而摩天大楼中的

典范是洛克菲勒中心。

洛克菲勒是美国最富有的人之一,他凭借自己雄厚的财力建造了第

一个高耸云霄的多功能城市开发项目,这个项目包括办公室、商店、餐馆、酒吧,当然还有常在电影中出现的著名滑冰场。最重要的是,洛克菲勒使用的建筑语言是装饰艺术、爵士时代的建筑语言,传达

出那个时代令人激动的思想:只要你有强烈的愿望,没有什么事是

做不成的。但是,在洛克菲勒中心入口的上方,可以看到伟大的建

筑师上帝的画像,这意味着这个高楼不只是推崇财富的场所,而且

也是彰显伦理和道德的地方。

最后,建筑能告诉我们什么是人间天堂。在气势恢宏的内华达山脉

的映衬下,西班牙格拉纳达的阿尔汉布拉宫的花园、庭院让我们体

会到了人造的建筑元素与大自然相得益彰的和谐。圣凯瑟琳修道院

位于埃及的西奈,在这个摩西接过《十诫》的地方,我们可以回想

神的

法律是如何从其创立者交到凡人手中的。

在中国的山西省有个群山环绕的悬空寺。通过悬空寺,我们可以了

解到建筑是如何突破地心引力的束缚,人类是如何依自然之道而生

存的。

的确,建筑艺术是用来建屋盖楼的。但它的作用远不止这些。它本

身就是一种语言,一种交流方式,而不仅仅是形式和功能。只要你

能诠释这种语言,你就可以把它读作一本书、一篇散文或一首诗。

当然,这要求我们既要付出努力,还要有颗愿意学习的心。 reading and understanding

? read the notes and find the examples of architecture.

1. british tower blocks in the 1960s and 1970s

玻璃城堡

我从来不相信有圣诞老人。

我们家的孩子没人相信,因为爸爸妈妈不让我们相信。他们买不起昂贵的礼物,也不想让我们觉得我们比不上别的孩子——在圣诞节早上,他们从圣诞树下找到各种各样的新奇玩具,据说是圣诞老人留下的。所以他们告诉我们其他的孩子怎样被父母骗了,说那些大人们所说的由戴着有铃铛的帽子的小精灵在他们的北极工厂所做的玩具其实标签上都写着“日本制造”。

“尽量不要看不起其他小孩,”妈妈跟我们说,“他们被洗脑了,以致相信那些愚蠢的童话,这并不是他们的错。”

我们也庆祝圣诞节,但通常比12月25日晚大约一周。那时候可以找到人们丢弃的非常好的蝴蝶结、包装纸及松针几乎完好就被人们扔在路旁的圣诞树,有些树上甚至还挂着一些银色的闪光金属箔。爸爸和妈妈会给我们一包彩色玻璃弹子或一个洋娃娃或弹弓,那是在圣诞节后商品大减价时买来的。

在与工头吵了一架后爸爸丢了石膏矿的工作,所以在那年的圣诞节,我们一贫如洗。圣诞前夕,爸爸把我们轮流带到荒野的夜幕中。我

当时裹着一床毯子,在轮到我的时候,我要把毯子分给爸爸一些,

但爸爸说不用,他从不怕冷。那年我五岁,我挨着爸爸坐下,我们

一起抬头看天空。

爸爸很喜欢谈论星星。他告诉我们随着地球的自转星星怎么旋转、

穿行于夜空。他教我们怎么辨别星座,怎么通过北极星找路。他喜

欢强调一点:那些闪亮的星星是对像我们这样住在荒野里的人的特

别款待。他说,那些有钱的城里人虽然住在漂亮的公寓里,他们却

看不到星星,因为空气被严重污染了。如果我们想与他们中的任何

一个交换住所,那我们肯定是疯了。那天晚上爸爸对我说:“挑一颗

你最喜欢的星星吧。”他说我可以一直拥有那颗星星,那是给我的圣

诞礼物。我说:“你不能给我星星,没有人拥有这些星星。”爸爸说:“对,其他任何人都不拥有这些星星。所以现在你只要在其他人之前

声称它是你的,就像拉丁佬哥伦布替伊莎贝拉女王声称美洲是他们

的那样。声称一颗星星是你的,其中的道理与那个是完全一样的。”

我想了想,发现爸爸是对的。他一直都是这样推理的。

爸爸说我可以要我想要的任何星星,除了参宿四和参宿七(猎户座

的两颗星星),因为洛丽和布赖恩已经认领了这两颗。

我抬头看着星星,想挑出最好的那颗。在清朗的荒野的夜空中,有

成百、成千甚至上万颗星星在闪烁。看的时间越久你的眼睛就越适

应黑暗,你就可以看到更多的星星。渐渐地它们一层层地呈现在你

的眼前。其中有一颗很特别,它在山的西面,但处于低空,显得比

其他所有的星星都更亮。

“我要那颗,”我说。

爸爸笑了。“那是金星,”他说。金星只是一颗行星,他接着讲,与

真正的恒星相比她非常小。她看起来更大、更亮是因为她比其他星

星离我们近得多。可怜的金星甚至不能自己发光,爸爸说。她发出

的光是反射光。他跟我解释说行星稳定发光是因为反射光是持续的,恒星闪烁是因为它们的光是不稳定的。

“不管怎样,我就喜欢它,”我说。在那个圣诞前我就喜欢金星。傍

晚时你可以看到它在西边的地平线上亮着。如果你起得早,尽管其

他星星这时已经消失了你却还可以看到它。“没关系,”他说:“这

是圣诞节,如果你想要一颗行星那就拿去吧。”然后他把金星给了我。

晚上吃圣诞晚餐时,我们一起讨论了外太空。爸爸解释了什么是光年、黑洞、类星体,并告诉了我们参宿四、参宿七及金星的特征。

参宿四是猎户座猎人肩上的一颗红色的星星。它是天空中肉眼能见

到的最大的星星,比太阳还大几百倍。它已经炽热地燃烧了几百万年,并很快会变成一颗超新星然后烧毁。我为洛丽挑了这么一颗破

星星而难过时,爸爸解释说“很快”指的是我们谈论星星后的几十万

年之后。

参宿七是颗蓝色的星星,比参宿四小,但比它更亮,爸爸说。它也是猎户座的,但是在猎人的左脚上,这看起来很适合布赖恩,因为

他跑得超快。

金星没有像月亮那样的卫星或其他卫星,甚至没有磁场,但它有着与地球相似的空气,只是它的空气超热,大约有五百度甚至更高。“所以,”爸爸说,“当太阳开始燃尽时地球将变冷,生活在地球上的每个人都可能会想搬到金星上取暖。这样的话,他们得先经过你的

子孙的同意。”

我们嘲笑那些相信圣诞童话的小孩,他们除了一堆廉价的塑料玩具外什么也没得到。“再过些年,他们所得到的垃圾玩具都坏了,被他们抛在脑后,”爸爸说,“你们的星星却还是你们的。”

龙在这里

童话对于如今的孩子来说是不是太恐怖了或不适合他们?

全世界的孩子们最流行的娱乐方式可能就是在临睡时听他们的父母

朗读或复述童话故事了,这也是一种让他们入睡的方法。

但宝贝网对英国的3,000对父母进行的民意调查显示,他们许多人

已抛弃了一些经典的童话,如《白雪公主与七个小矮人》及《长发

姑娘》,而选择一些更现代的专为孩子们写的故事。邪恶的女巫被

认为太可怕了,而小矮人则被批判有政治错误。《灰姑娘》被认为

是强化了女性的模式化形象,认为妇女应该被留在家里做家务并认

为只有婚姻才能挽救她们。

有相当一部分家长不给孩子读《小红帽》的故事,因为她独自在森

林里而且还发现她的奶奶被狼给吃了。66%的父母同意传统童话承

载了很浓的道德教育成分,但不适合在孩子临睡时读给他们听,怕

引起恐慌或噩梦。有一半的父母在孩子未满五岁前不会考虑给他们

读传统童话。

暴力、危险、愤怒的巨人、恶毒的后妈、在森林中迷路的孩子、害怕、孤独及死亡,这些是全世界所有童话的主题,所以父母质疑这

些故事的定位及其对孩子的影响并不奇怪。

但最初的童话并不都是为孩子们写的。有些是成年人口口相传的传

统故事。只是到了读者买了几套这样的童话书要读给他们的孩子们

听时,把它们写下的人才觉得需要改写其中的一些,但不是全部吓

人的细节。

最初是心理咨询师们而不是文学专业人士开始提出这个问题:为什

么孩子们喜欢童话故事?弗洛伊德认为梦与童话很相似,都会频繁

出现冲突、恐惧、焦虑和禁忌行为。荣格认为童话是一种集体无意

识的表现,是全人类共有的象征形象及形式的储备体。贝特尔海姆

认为童话就是在孩子们长大成人的过程中直视问题及欲望的梦。

童话一般讲的是家长里短的故事,如与父母争吵、兄弟姐妹之争、

男女关系,并且传递的是普遍真理。他宣称:“如果允许孩子们用他

们自己的方式解读童话,他们能读出更广泛的意义及目的。”事实上,童话能帮助孩子们更好地为生活作准备。

童话给孩子们造成了影响,而有人质疑这种深层次的心理诠释。许

多人只是说童话能在两方面放松紧张情绪。首先,讲故事、复述故

事这一行为颇具魔力,能很快吸引孩子,所以讲童话故事被特意安排在孩子临睡前。

另一方面,童话使孩子们能躲进根据他们的欲求建成的魔幻世界,在那儿他们有机会享受幻想带来的快乐。故事经常发生在一个遥远的地方,过去某个不确定的时间(从前,很久很久以前??),并且一般都有个快乐的结尾(从那之后他们快乐地生活)。通过讲述或复述故事,父母帮助孩子理解无论过程中发生什么,最后一切都会好起来的。

家庭概念也得到了巩固。通常,不像在神话里,童话的主要人物不是强壮而勇敢的英雄,而是孩子们具有认同感的普通人,他们的行为通常也不英勇。坏人从来不是家人,而是恶毒的后妈、邪恶的女巫和她的咒语、大块头的坏巨人、龙、熊、狼、怪物,并且如果孩子在中途迷路了或发现自己身处险境,他们常常会被安全而毫发无损地带回家,回到父母身边。所以对孩子而言,童话代表的是生活本身。可能会有危险甚至出现混乱,可能很可怕或恐怖,但爱你的人从来都不会把你抛弃。孩子能确信父母对他的爱,并且长大后把祥和及快乐带给整个家庭。故事使孩子们理解怎么处理他们生活中所出现的情况,并明白不是每个人都是好人、都会帮助他。最主要的是,公平和正义几乎每次都能胜利。孩子们不但学到了邪恶是什么,而且学到了邪恶是能被战胜的,正义能重新回到世界。

那么,童话还那么恐怖或不适合今天的孩子吗?

是的,它们确实是恐怖且不适合讲给孩子听的。但讽刺的是,正因为它们恐怖并且儿童不宜,反而使它们完全适合。第一,正因如此孩子们才觉得童话有趣。他们喜欢一点点害怕的感觉,享受听其他人做淘气的事、说淘气的话。第二,孩子们也可以在床边,在父母陪伴之下,在卧室平静而安全的环境中,而不用在那个大而坏的世界里学习正与邪。

正如g k切斯特顿所说:“童话不是告诉孩子们龙的存在。孩子们早就知道龙的存在。童话告诉他们的是龙可以被杀死。”
