玻璃制成的身体:轻症候群的文化史 [有声书]
Part cultural history, part literary criticism, and part memoir, A Body Made of Glass is a definitive biography of hypochondria. Caroline Crampton’s life was upended at the age of seventeen, when she was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a relatively rare blood cancer. After years of invasive treatment, she was finally given the all clear. But being cured of the cancer didn’t mean she felt well. Instead, the fear lingered, and she found herself always on the alert, braced for signs that the illness had reemerged. Now, in A Body Made of Glass, Crampton has drawn from her own experiences with health anxiety to write a revelatory exploration of hypochondria—a condition that, though often suffered silently, is widespread and rising. She deftly weaves together history, memoir, and literary criticism to make sense of this invisible and underexplored sickness. From the earliest medical case of Hippocrates to the literary accounts of sufferers like Virginia Woolf and Marcel Proust to the modern perils of internet self-diagnosis, Crampton unspools this topic to reveal the far-reaching impact of health anxiety on our physical, mental, and emotional health. At its heart, Crampton explains, hypochondria is a yearning for knowledge. It is a never-ending attempt to replace the edgeless terror of uncertainty with the comforting solidity of a definitive explanation. Through intimate personal stories and compelling cultural perspectives, A Body Made of Glass brings this uniquely ephemeral condition into much-needed focus for the first time.
《玻璃身体》是一部融合了文化史、文学批评和个人回忆录的书,它是一本关于疑病症的最终传记。卡罗琳·克拉蒙特十七岁时被诊断出患有霍奇金淋巴瘤,这是一种相对罕见的血液癌症。经过多年的侵入性治疗后,她终于得到了治愈的通知。但治愈了癌症并不意味着她感觉良好。相反,恐惧仍然存在,她总是保持警惕,随时准备迎接疾病复发的迹象。现在,《玻璃身体》这本书中,克拉蒙特从与健康焦虑相关的个人经历出发,对疑病症进行了具有开创性的探讨——这种状况虽然经常默默忍受,但却广泛存在并且还在上升。 克拉蒙特巧妙地将历史、回忆录和文学批评融为一体,来解释这种隐形且未被充分探索的疾病。从古医理学家希波克拉底的第一个医学案例到像弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫和马塞尔·普鲁斯特这样的病患的文学描述,再到现代互联网自我诊断带来的风险,克拉蒙特揭示了健康焦虑对我们的身体、心理及情感健康的深远影响。 在核心上,克拉蒙特解释道,疑病症是一种渴望知识的愿望。这是一种永无止境的努力,试图用一个确定的答案来取代不确定性带来的深渊恐惧感。通过充满个人故事的亲密叙述和具有说服力的文化视角,《玻璃身体》第一次将这种独特的易逝状态带入了人们的视野之中。
