読むたびに変わる場所
この作品は、一度読んで意味が固定されるタイプではない。読者の年齢や経験が変わると、人物の選択や権力をめぐる圧力の見え方も変わる。
発見1: 人物ではなく構造が残る
登場人物の細部を忘れても、人物の選択、権力をめぐる圧力、そして決定的な転機に集まる欲望と制度という構造は残る。だから別の時代、別の社会、別の職場や家庭にも移し替えて読める。
発見2: 簡単な教訓に閉じない
Charles Bradlaugh: a Record of His Life and Work, Volume 1 (of 2): With an Account of his Parliamentary Struggle, Politics and Teachings. Seventh Editionは一つの道徳に回収しにくい。むしろ読者に、どこで信じ、どこで疑い、どこで踏みとどまるかを考えさせる。
